3rd April. 1916.
Dear Sir Arthur,
In reply to your note of today, I do not
recollect saying that we were getting no information from
India regarding Eastern Persia,ifliHa but I may have said that
we were getting very little, which is indeed the fact.
During the past month we have received only
eleven telegrams in all from the C in C, and of these only
six can properly be said to deal with East Persia...the remain
der referring to the Kawam’s movements, Shiraz and Redls jour
ney.
When Mr Marling proposed to confine himself to
information about Central and South Persia (vide Tehran 172
^ told the Foreign Office that he
Oj- the 18th March) General MacDonogh A concurred in the suggestion
hnrvi rw* f+oh
i--ig that we would get full news from India, That hooe has
not however been fulfilled. It may be the fault of Seistan, but
an sure it is not that of the Germans who are not idle I am
sure.
Yours very truly,
(mI
