RAW MATERIALS FROM INDIA
(Rec. noon.) : RUGBY, October 3
While the railroad from Bandar Shapur to Teheran is a natural channel for military stores destined for Russia which come from overseas, for India's contributions to the common cause there is an alternative route, the War Office states/ From Quetta a railway runs through northern Baluchistan to the Iranian border, and thence convoys can go by road to Meshed and so either to the Iranian port of Bandar Shah or to the Russian railway that
links Merv to the Caspian Sea. Consignments of Indian raw materials sent by this route have already reached Meshed and have been delivered to the officer commanding the Russian forces there.—B.O.W.
