The Secretary of State to the Diplomatic Agent and Consul General at Tangier (Blake)
4. Your despatch No. 350 of December 31, 1928. Department authorizes you to give the provisional consent of this Government to the application to American nationals and ressortissants of the four proposed taxation measures, such consent to be effective if and when these measures shall have been definitely adopted by the Legislative Assembly without any amendment, unless it be an amendment which provides only for a lower rate of taxation, and it being understood that the jurisdiction of the American consular court over American nationals and ressortissants who may be involved in infractions of these new laws shall remain unimpaired. Obviously the effective date of the law applying the Gate Taxes will have to be changed. Please telegraph action taken and date laws effective.
