PERSIA: Rambling Shah
His Majesty Sultan Ahmad, Shah of Persia, likes Europe.
From the Fall of 1919 to the Spring of 1920 he flitted about on the Continent. From January to November, 1922, he sojourned in the fashionable resorts of the grand monde. Since November, 1923, he has again been in Europe and recently took part in the "Battle of Flowers" at Nice.
His subjects are displeased.
According to the London Daily Mail correspondent, the entire Persian press is in favor of a republic, and the deposition of the Shah was allegedly the sole topic of discussion at Teheran, Persian capital.
