Moscow. May 22.-The communi-
cations sent by Persia to Moscow a
few weeks ago embodied an offer to
dispatch q mission to Russia and to
resume diplomatic relations. says an
announcement here today Of note
sent by NJ. T. Tchitcherin, the soviet
commissary for foreign affairs, to
the Persian government. This note,
1t is stated. welcomes the offer of
Persia end defines the attitude Of the
soviet government towards that coun-
try.
The new note. It appears, annuls
the secret treaties negotiated under
the imperial regime and the imperial
concessions: asserts the principles of
non on-interference, and proclaims the
freedom Of the Caspian sea and the
settlement of the boundaries by self
determination of the population.
The note further agrees to the abo-
lftion Of the Russian consular juris-
diction and the placing of all means
of communication as well as the for
mer Russian banks under control of
the Persian government.
