Evacuation Ordered for Last British Oil Men in Iran
ABADAN Iran UP The evacuation by warship of the last British oil men in Iran was ordered today. About 330 Britons who had resisted London’s demand to leave by Thursday will depart Wednesday under Royal Navy protection aboard the cruiser Mauritius. They warned they would rather leave than be political pawns in the Anglo Iranian crisis. Plans for voluntary evacuation were canceled. Britain urged UN Security Council to seek cancellation of the expulsion and to insist Iran suspend nationalization of the Anglo Iranian Oil Company in line with a World Court request. US Ambassador Henderson held talks with Prime Minister Mossadegh as Washington seeks a last hour compromise in the oil dispute.
