ly letter 467/4/4:5, March 21st*
Persia Area inform me that the Soviet Consulate
at Ahwaz propose to open propaganda shop on Abadan Island.
I have replied that I saw no objection to opening of such
shop in Khorramshahr since we have one in Tabriz but that
this did not apply to Abadan. General Lochner who is on
his way south will not give permission for such a shop in
Abadan and I have said that I agree.
