Aden, Jan. 9.
Sir Hartley Shawcross, former British Labour Attorney-General, appearing for the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (AIOC), said .today that if the charterers of the tanker Rose Mary decided to appeal to the East African Court of Appeal, AIOC would deposit the value of the Rose Mary's oil (about £5,000) into the court.

Judge Ralph Campbell had earlier ordered the oil to be returned to AIOC, when the company won its claim in the Aden Supreme Court to ownership of 900 tons of Persian oil, detained here by a court order last June in the Rose Mary.
