The Secretary of State to the Minister in Iran (Dreyfus)
579. War Department concurs in the changes recommended in paragraphs numbered 1 and 2 in your telegram no. 1020, October 25, 1943.
With reference to your paragraph no. 3, the War Department desires that the second sentence of Article III retain the phrase “any member of the Armed Forces of the United States of America.” The first part of the second sentence therefore reads as follows:
“No gross receipt, income, or like forms of taxes will be imposed, levied or collected by the Imperial Iranian Government or any subordinate governmental authority on the income heretofore earned or received by any member of the Armed Forces of the United States of America, or by the agencies and employees aforesaid resulting from their employment by or connected with the armed forces of the United States of America;”
