by H.M. G. and by India. For certain reasons India has
in fact been paying rather more (about £3,000) than
H.M.G. After the war India attempted to secure a
readjustment of incidence on the ground that Imperial
and Indian interests had come to bear a proportion
different from what had obtained in 1900. The leading

Government of India’s proposals. July 1922 (put to
Foreiim Office. March 1925) .
The ratio of British to Indian interests in
Persia had changed since 1900 and was such as to justify
a redivision of financial liability by which India would
pay only one-third of Persian d. and c. expenditure.
To avoid perpetuating the administrative
disadvantages inherent in any system of divided control
India proposed that the Consulates in Southern and Easte:
Persia, v/hich were staffed by India, should be maintained
wholly at India’s cost, and that India should pay one-
third of the cost of Bushire and the Tehran Legation.
