ter Russian commerce would advance

larly defines the line of action Great
Britain and Russia will follow in Per-
sia, Tibet and Afghanistan.
Relative Positions.
Russia maintains her position in the
north and Great Britain in the south of
Persia. Great Britain is thus relieved
of anxiety that Russia is scheming to
secure a port on the Persian gulf.
When Lansdowne was foreign secre
tary he declared any attempt on the
part of Russia to do this would mean
war.
Other governments interested in Per
sia have been assured the convention
does not threaten the integrity of the
country and does not interfere with the
vested interests of any one. The con
ventiOn is understood to guarantee the
maintenance of the present position OF
AfghaniStan and Tibet.
