Afghan Trade Agent. Please see your telegram No. 112 C., dated Octo
ber 17tli. The Government of India do not consider it expedient to address
Amir on the subject. It would take time and probably produce no result
apart from other considerations. If possible you should inform Agent that
}ou are fully cognisant of his proceedings and warn him that his conduct
will be brought to notice of Amir if he does not desist from such talk. This
will probably make him act more prudently.
Hepeated to His Britannic Majesty’s Minister, Tehran.
