difficult to comply vnik this request of the Prime Minister, and that
unless he collected a large number of tribesmen and himself assumed
the learclership he did not believe that any tribal expedition would be prac
ticable, since a small body of tribesmen would never reach Arabistan as the men
would desert on the road and return to the hills, while on the other hand it womd
take two or three months to assemble a large force of tribesmen. He received a
reply from the Prime Minister that the latter was anxious for the moral support
of the tribal chiefs against the Shaikh, and requesting the Qawam to furnisli
100 armed horsemen to be placed at the disposal of the military, and adding that
a larger force would not be requested from the Khamseh \ribe.
The Qashquis, who had also been addressed, supplied SO horsemen.

Wathiq-i-Huzoor arrived from Bushire and assumed charge of his post on
the 8th December, 1924, the Kargnzar Agha Sadid-es-Sultaneh officiating in the
meantime.
It will jbe observed that the Bandar Abbas post which was raised to a
Governorship under the Ministry of the Interior in June 1923, has been reduced
to that of Deputy Governor and placed once more under the control of the
Governor of the Gulf Ports at Bushire.
Salar-i-Nizam's personal relations with H. B. M. Consul were friendly
throughout his tenure of office at Bandar Abbas but in his official capacity he was
not very helpful, and inclined to be lazy. It was difficult to elicit a reply from him
when addressed on matters affecting British interests.
It was generally agreed that he was weak and incompetent and moreover
corrupt.
Wathiq-i-Huzoor his successor was Deputy Governor of Lingah before secur
ing his present post from the Governor of the Gulf Ports.
