material daily across Iran by spring,
serious bitches have developed in CO.

Now, with effective liaison yet to
be arranged. even minor questions
must be referred to Moscow, some

brigade at Teheran reportedly, was
unable last week to obtain a military
pass to enter Soviet-occupied terri

The British were said to feel that
Moscow should send representative

port problems.
