lraniian Oil Talks
To Be Renewed
By World Bank
Negotiating Group
To Leave Saturday
For Conferences
By the Associated Press

The World Bank announced to-
day renewal of negotiations with
Iran in an effort to revive opera
tions of that country's oil industry.
The bank said a new negotiating
team will fly from Washington
Saturday to attempt to work out
with the Iranian government a
basis Of agreement which might
make possible definite proposals
leading to a resumption Of oil
operations"
The bank has been holding dis
cuSsions on the Iranian oil issue
for several months, but ran into
stumbling blocks early last month
and recalled its mission to Iran.
Technical Problems Scanned.
Resumption Of talks with the
1ranian government follows a sur
vey by bank officials of technical
problems in resuming production
in Trans huge oil fields.
The fact that negotiations are
being resumed after these tech
nical studies indicates the bank
has renewed hopes of solving the
Iranian oil crisis.
The big oil fields have been
virtually idle since the Iranian
government took possession under
Ia naturalization law last year.
The fields, formerly were owned
and operated by a British firm,
the Anglo-Iran Oil Co.
Negotiations between Iran and
the British. with top American Of
flcials trying to mediate their diff
ferences, brought nothing but
deadlockS.
Would Finance Operations.
The World Bank repeatedly is
working on q plan under which
the bank would finance renewed
of operations In the oil fields.
Proceeds from the sale of oil
would be divided between the
Iranian government and the bank
or a new corporation set up by
the bank. The bank in turn would
sell oil presumably to the Anglo
Iran company and would set aside
part Of its income to reimburse
the oil company.
Iranian Premier Mossadegh on
January 3 rejected any World
Bank proposal for reviving oil
operations unless his government
was given complete control over
operations.
