Aside from oil, these tex- tile mills provide a huge source of income for the people. It ap- pears that Russia stands a good chance of winning the country through peaceful conquest. The 1923 treaty between Russia and Iran is completely out-moded {but it can still be used as an ex- cuse for intervention to further confuse the’ Allies.
