Your telegram No. 1418 /of September

The Government of India have agreed to
make Colonel Galloway available for the post
of Consul-General, Bushire. You should
therefore apply to the Persian Government for
provisional recognition of the appointment.
You may then make any local announcement of
the appointment that you think suitable.
2. Galloway is at present on leave and will
thereafter probably be required to act for
Hay for a month but should be free by the
beginning of November. As a Consul-General
with no functions outside Persia he will of
course conform to normal Consular practice
(paragraph 2 of your telegram No. 781)

f
Bushire should have supervision over Indian
staffed Consular posts in South Persia with
the exception of Khorramshahr. With regard to
this post the Government of India have agreed
that H.M. Consul at Khorramshahr should, in
political matters, be under the supervision of
the Consul-General at Ahwaz, on the assumption
that officers of some seniority will be posted
