His activities during the year seem to have been mainly directed towards
attempting to collect information concerning the operations of the Anglo Persian
Oil Company Limited for which purpose he avails himself of the services of

Khorrermhad Road. —The Dizful-Khorremabad road was opened to traffic
in June 1925. It is not yet possible to say to what extent this route will prove
a rival to the Lynch road, as th'e security of the route was short-lived, the road
being closed again in October owing to the unsettled state of the country. At
the end of the year the road was still closed. During the short time that it was
open, however, the Mesopotamia Persia Corporation, Limited forwarded 288
cwt. of goods from Ahwaz. The average rate of mule hire from Ahwaz to'
Tehran was krans 9.58 per shah maund. Unfortunately one of the Corpora
tions' caravans carrying goods to the value of about £3,000 was looted in Octo
ber, 233 out of a total of 249 packages being robbed by marauding Lurs. To
date only 30 packages have been recovered.
