Peaceful Progress

Soviet troops have also gone further southward in Eastern Iran and have entered the small towns of Turbati-Haldari and Turbati-Shaikjam. These towns are about 80 miles apart opposite the north-western corner of the

Afghanistan frontier.

Reports from Tabriz and else- where continue to emphasise the peaceful acceptance by the in- habitants of the allied entry. Reuter.

General outline of the terms, as envisaged by the Press, includes the temporary occupation of cer tais specific areas of Iran, 'provi- sion for unimpeded transport of war material to Russia through. the country, and the expulsion of virtually all- Germans.

The terms would make it clear that such demands are made as a purely wartime expedient and that they in no way infringed resnect for Iranian independence and in- tegrity British Wireles
