Situation.quiet everywhere.
Russian resistance at Stalingrad and growing fear
that Germans cannot get here this year have had chastening
effect.
2. From Western Azerbaijan I have further evidence
that Russians are using influence to make the Kurds behave
better although they seem anxious to avoid appearance of
any kind of interference.
5. No effective action is being taken to prevent
export of wheat from Western Azerbaijan o?L hoarding of
peasants wheat in Eastern Azerbaijan where open market
price is rising daily.
4. Russian purge if any has not proceeded far in
Tabriz. Consul-General and trade delegate are back
and General Melnik's transfer has been cancelled.
5. Despite much loose talk there is no reliable
evidence of any trouble between the Russians and the
Turks on the frontier.
6. The
; Russians are moving troops from all posts
in Azerbaijan to the Caucasus. They continue to buy
tonasrs in Ki.m3istan. , /^t^- <s-o.j
