Finance Agent has announced tax on vehicles, horses et cetera in accord
ance with Majlis Act. British subjects, except those connected with Consulate,
are required to pay. Should I instruct them to do so? If so, I would suggest
notifying that payment will be made only so long as local finances are in charge
of Official acceptable to us and on condition that Consulate should be consulted
as to expenditure of money collected and have the right to inspect accounts of
the same.
If you object absolutely to payment can you please arrange matter in
Tehran.
I have seen just now your Vice-Consular letter of May 29th, 1912, to
Imperial Bank of Persia, Tehran. I think no one here will object to payment on
terms I have proposed and it will make my support of Governor-General and
Finance Agent against threatened popular resistance more effective.
