rtf Mr Bahn«ma mentioned in their speeches formerly u point in
this oonneotion whioh Impressed me mudh. l"hoy Ks^rxsbso: 8ai6 that
there my have been a political design in not paying the
real royalties to Persia in order Ism that Persia may have less
foreign exchange whioh she oan employ for the purohase of
