in the sense of this instruction. I also handed him aide
mdinoire embodied in my tele gram 922,

Persian Government accepted full responsibility for providing
adequate protection to the Company's property and staff.

existing defects (he mentioned housing at Aga Jari) as soon

uA
jOj regular machinery for consultation with labour. I reminded

been made for Mr. Audsley to come to Tehran this week to advise

About this item
- Content

Other prominent correspondents include the following: His Majesty's Chargé d'Affaires in Tehran (Harold Lister Farquhar), His Majesty's Ambassador in Moscow (Maurice Peterson), His Majesty's Ambassador in Washington (Archibald Clark Kerr, referred to as Lord Inverchapel), His Majesty's Ambassador in Baghdad (Sir Hugh Stonehewer Bird), and the Secretary of State for India (Frederick William Pethick-Lawrence).
The correspondence includes discussion of the following:
- Soviet Russia's failure to withdraw its troops from Persia by 2 March 1946, an act regarded by the Persian Government as a violation of the Tripartite Treaty of 1942.

- A proposed British Parliamentary delegation to Persia.
- Russian assistance to both the Kurdish Republican movement and to the new Azerbaijan National Government [the Azerbaijan People's Government, based in Tabriz], as well as Russian influence in the negotiations between the Persian Central Government and Azerbaijan National Government delegations.
- Reports of a gradual withdrawal of Soviet forces from north Persia during April-May 1946.
- The Tudeh Party's growing strength as a political force (particular attention is given to the party's involvement in strikes by employees of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company, as well as to the Persian Government's response to the strikes).
