the North German-Lloyd liner George

the foreign office. under Sir Edward
Gray's administration, that Germany will
make some sudden move on the chess
board OF European politics that will put

far East. Russia's tactics toward me
and my work were so coarse and brutal
that could probably have enlisted the
active support of the world had II not
been for England's secret aid OF Rus

''The upshot of 1t all is, that Persia
is now more at the mercy OF the Cars
determined and headlong policy of
ruthless aggression than before the
