Answering a series of questions on Persia and the Security Council, the British Foreign Minister, Mr. Ernest Bevin, told the House cf Commons that he was not in a position to give information concerning the approximate number of additional Russian troops who had recently entered north Persia. They ought to leave such an investigation to the Security Council. Asked whether arrangemercts could not be made for Britain to be represented on the Security Council by a Minister, Mr. Bevin said that the Under-Secretary of Foreign Affairs, Sir Alexander Cadogan, was the permanent representative. For this meeting he would act on instructions from the Government. Asked if he did not think his personal presence was desirable, Mr. Bevin said he would follow events closely, but as much trcuble couid be caused by dramatising as being mundane.
