The further one dosoends into the f^eat Kaslikel depression, the
greater becomes the intensity of the heat and tlrls is a point
to be bcrne in ninil in connection with open line runnirv.% This
coot ion pi^esentis no engineering difficulty of any IdLnd, the
country beir^ cp\ite ox>en. It is true that the wind stream would
have to be reckoned v/ith, as well also as the several linos of

engineering difficulty of any kind, the country being m open plain
and would bo secure from attach throughout its length* The branch
lino would further possess the Political advantage of precluding
the Kharan Serdar and his advisers from Indulging in these
trmsfronticr intri^^ues for which they have, in the past, shewn
such a predoliotion, and would also ensure the Indo-European
