Section (h) of the same article :—
The use by the company throughout the period of the concession of a
number of large aeroplanes with three engines and the use, if necessary, of
one such machine immediately after the sanction and granting of this
concession.
The Government had in mind to ensure that while others reaped the
advantages of the contract, Persia should also benefit through an arrangement by
which she should eventually be able to count on a number of trained Persian
pilots and air mechanics. They wished to bring about the establishment of an
aviation school, the training of two Persian students at a time in the various
branches of the company and the formation of an aviation company with at least
half of the shares held by Persians. None of these obligations, though legally
binding on the company, have been put into effect, and it is the company which is
responsible for the fact that advantages which should have accrued five years ago
to Persia still remain in abeyance. One wonders whether it is really expedient
that the concession should be renewed with a company which regards with total
indifference the interests of the Government which granted it. From the legal
point of view the answer is in the negative, unless indeed the Minister of Posts
and Telegraphs, who enjoys a merited reputation as a competent official and an
energetic supporter of Persian interests, is fully satisfied that the company will
turn over a new leaf and will henceforth fulfil scrupulously its obligations and
safeguard Persian interests. Confident as we are that the present Government
never adopts an obstructive attitude towards any measure conducive to the public
welfare, we cannot but attribute the indifference displayed towards these
unfulfilled obligations to the company and not to the Government, and we
therefore repeat that unless the interests in question are safeguarded, the
concession should not be renewed to Junkers.
We consider that it is in the interests of our country that at the present
stage when the contract has still five months to run, this hint should be given to
the Government, in order that when the time comes to consider the renewal more
attention may be paid to the moral and material interests of the Persian people.
