Sir Edward Grey said the Anglo-Rus-

impair the independence and integrity
OF Persia. a declaration to that eff

was not undertaking any obliga ton TO
protect the integrity OF Persia. The
Russian government, continued the
Foreign Secretary, has demanded that
Mr.. Shuster should be withdrawn. The
British government had said that it
did not object to that demand. Mr.
Shusters intentions in appointing
British officials in Southern Persia
