Editorial Note
Ambassador Allen and Iranian Minister of War Mahmoud Djam signed an agreement at Tehran on October 6, which renewed the engagement of the United States Military Mission with the Iranian Army (telegram 966, October 6, 4 p. m., from Tehran, 891.20 Missions/10–647). The agreement was to continue in force until March 20, 1949. If Iran desired that the services of the Mission be extended beyond that date, it was to make a written proposal to that effect prior to September 21, 1948. The United States, on its part, agreed to act on such proposal prior to December 21, 1948. For the text of the agreement, see Department of State, Treaties and Other International Acts Series 1666; or 61 Stat. (3) 3306.
