WASHINGTON - The crumbling Russian front has caused some very cogent questions to be asked in high places regarding the efficiency of both the United States and the British.
 Uppermost question is transporta- tion, without which supplies cannot reach Russia.
 Most desperate area in which Rus sia needs supplies is in the south. There the Hitler drive has progress ed disastrously near the oil fields of the Caucasus. However, the only route to the Caucasus is via the Gulf of Persia to the port of Basra, thence by shaky railroad through Iran to South Russia. This railroad is in such bad shape that almost no sup plies of any consequence can be transported.
 To bolster it, American railway experts are being sent to Basra. However the stark tragedy-com pletely unexplained - is why the British did not begin long ago to whip this road into shape.
 The Russian war has been in prog ress for three months. The British knew even last June that this route would be all-important Two or three thousand men could have revamped the railroad in quick time. But nothing was done.
 Meanwhile the French and Ger mans have been working feverishly to build railroad from Casablanca, in Morocco, to Dakar, the French naval base opposite Brazil. And in about the same length of time, they have almost finished it. But in Iran the British did nothing.

 Twenty-two men from the craft were landed at Bathurst by the Brit ish ship Vimy and p others at Freetown. Since the crew included only 39, officers expressed the belief that the others were stowaways.
