Grady Voices Hope
For Cancellation in
Iran Oil Crisis
BY the Associated Press

Former Ambassador Henry F.
Grady said today the oil crisis
in Iran stems in large part from
the stubborn, uncompromising
attitude" of the Anglo -Iranian
Oil Co. before naturalization.
Mr.. Grady expressed belief,
however. that Premier Mossa-
degh's government should have
accepted the liberal offer" by
the British later in the crisis.
Mr.. Grady. who recently re-
signed as Ambassador to Iran,
said in an article in the Foreign
Policy Bulletin that time is run
ming out fast" He voiced hope
that "reasonableness and concili-
alton will at the last minute save
Iran and possibly the world from
disaster"
IF not settled soon, the con-
troversy can create conditions in
Iran under which a Communist
coup could take place and Iran
might be drawn behind the Iron
Curtain" he said. Such a de-
velopment might even lead to
World War III.
"The British so far have been
very much inclined to regard the
oil problem in Iran as entirely
their affair. But if we are going
to be in on the crash landing. we
should be in on the take-off."
The former envoy said that the
British Foreign Office. despite
our earnest urgings." did nothing
Ito correct the stubborn, uncom-
promising attitude of the oil COM
pany until naturalization had
taken place"
He said the United States
Government failed by not insisting
more than a year ago that the
problem did vitally concern the
United States and that the "co-
lonial approach" of the oil COM
lpany was certain to be Intellectual.
