Persia rcne^a cormpla int.
"he Shalhh of Bahrain in + he month of laet May ^ave concession

for extracting petrol in the island to ar vtnerican concern.
Persia protested against this concession on the 13th of Jure,
last claiming that the netrol in Bahrain belonged to Persia,
queen of the island. But ling land fetorted at once that she
found her protes^ out of piece.
T yhat do thf Pers isns want 7
The arguments point out that + he Persians want to inter

these two Arab Governments and put their hands in the hand?
of the Arabs of Iran and the Arabf of the Persian Gulf wor
king for strengthening thf old established relations. That
is better than, and preferable to, this polic''- which will
never bring them ary mrterial good- leave alone what effec^
it will leave on the minds of the people- and the wise try,
on every occasion, to win h^^ts and please ‘‘'hem.
