Soraya is the aristocratic, daughter, by a German mother, of Khalil Esfandariji, of the hard-riding, straig h t-shooting pastoral tribe of the Bakhtiyari. It is on the loyalty of this mighty clan that the safety of a Persian zone of retreat, and an Allied beachhead, may depend. They guard the road that joins the unvirile natives of Tehran, the capital, with the ill-organized desert Arabs of the Gulf, : By severing Britain's pipelines until they were paid protection money, the Bakhtiyari two generations ago taught the West the cost of guerrilla warfare.

But like most of the feudal leaders of the Bakhtiyari, she has sipped the best of European learning without forgetting that her fortune! springs from the ruggedness of the clan. The sturdy fighting loyalty of the Bakhtiyari is specially needed just now to balance Soviet penetration in the Kurdish tribesmen of Iran's northern borders, and the corruption and land profiteer.
