The United States Representative at the United Nations (Lodge) to the Department of State

New York, September 28, 1953—1 p.m.

Delga 39. Re United Nations staff assessments, Deptel 115.1 I have asked Ambassador Wadsworth to handle this question for me. It is his [Page 618] view that on administrative and legal grounds it would be preferable to adopt tax exemption legislation. Such legislation would be difficult to obtain at present, in Ambassador Wadsworth’s view. Accordingly, he recommends Department request tax credit legislation for United States nationals in international organizations.
