The Chargé in Iran (Engert) to the Secretary of State

Tehran, August 15, 1940—noon.
[Received 12:40 p.m.]

189. Department’s 75, July 27, 1 p.m. was very much appreciated. Representatives of the Board deserve highest praise for tact, patience and intelligent cooperation with the Legation.

Contract was only signed today because of last minute disagreement as to precisely which properties were included in Tehran and in Tabriz.
