the summer headquarters at Shiraz*
Reference Foreign and Political memorandum No.F.189-
A/35, dated the 17th March 1937*
2, ..i ■ The buildings leased for tho recess of the political
Resident comprise three small separate bungalows and half of
another small bungalow - all in one compound.
3 # Last year the Officiating Resident spent 1 month in
Shiraz, and the Secretary two periods of a fortnight ana a
week. This was owing to the staff being short handed on account
of there being no permanent Under Secretary.
4 , 4 Ls a result of the shortness of time spent in Shiraz
combined with the dilatoriness of the Shiraz car r enters when
released from personal supervision, ^nly a proportion of the
furniture could be purchased, and this had to be movec round
from house to house according to whether the officiating
Resident was in occupation, or some other oflicer*
5. Until an opportunity can be taken to complete the
purchase cf the furniture, it must necessarily remain in a
state of flux as between house and house. In these circumstance
it is not yet possible to distinguish between furniture supplied
for the private portions of the bungalows and that supplied
for offices and the reception of visitors.
6, For present purposes the distribution may be taken as
approximately h?.lf and ha.lf, and a precise clia*ssification will
be made when the position as regards the furniture has become
static*
7, It is presumed that rent will only be charged for the
period during which pjiy particular building is cccupicd.
