Officers for Sofcth Persia Rifles.
For information. The officers in question
were sent overland via Norway and Russia at tne

Seen. These officers are apparently actually
nn their wav to Persia at the present time. The
Sd paraSaph of Sir C. Marling’s tele™ seems
to me irrelevant; he was consulted as to th_
-nrobable effects of sending the ott.icers, via
not as to the advisability of appointing them to
the S.P.R. at all - a matter which, I take it, is
not open to revision.
