Santiago, September
26, 1934—noon.
[Received 12:35 p.m.]
[Received 12:35 p.m.]
92. Embassy’s despatch 137, July 3rd. As the Chilean Government has definitely refused to exempt the Embassy from payment of the 2 per cent sales tax I request immediate authorization to settle these overdue accounts with electric light, cable, telephone and other companies. The telephone company has long been pressing us for payment.
