Affairs and Minister of Public Instruction have been dispensed with. This
confirms belief held generally yesterday that both were dismissed after
meeting of Ministers on 13th July. The only explanation current so far seems
inadequate.

trusted to Monsieur Mohsen Rais Political Director General who was favourite
for Legation London.
