MORE AND MORE attention is being given daily
1V1 to the question of Federal sales tax of some
Sort There is little middle ground on this issue;
those who have given the matter much thought
are baSically, either for such tax or against it,
further division of the "proS'-on the question
of retail sales tax or a manufacturers excise
tax-is mainly matter of semantics.
It can be taken as an axiom that whenever an
ad valorem dollars-andcentS levy is laid on the
exchange of goods at any stage in the life of those
goods from initial production to ultimate purchase
that levy is-in effect-a sales tax
THE QUESTION at issue now is not whether the
l. Federal Government should enter the field of
sales taxation. The Government is in that field
already, to the tune of roughly 50 billion year in
excise tax collections These taxes range from less
than l to almost so per cent of the value of items
taxed, and are laid on broad array of commodities
and serviceS-from furniture hauling to bourbon
whisky, from telephone calls to playing cards.
Some of the taxes are paid by the producer and
their cost is hidden in the price of the item Others
are paid by the consumer over and above the
amount on the price tag
Some expressed as percentages Of the
retail sale price fountain pens, is per cent?.
Some are fiat unit levies imposed on the producer
(beer, SO barreD.
The fountain-pen kind of tax is retail sales
levy. The beer kind is a manufacturers excise tax.
The effect Is the same: The Government gets the
money and the consumer pays the bill.

vacation in Switzerland. In view of
the critical political situation in
Iran, the trip aroused some COM
ment. Coincidentally. perhaps, Allen
Dulles, director of the Central Intel
ligence Agency, left Washington on
August 10-also for q vacation in
Switzerland. And, as a final coinci-
dence, the Princess Ashraf, who had
just made quick trip to Teheran
to see her brother, was there, too.
According to reports from Tehe-
ran, Ashraf's visit to the 1ranian
capital had featured a long and
stormy interview between the royal
pair. Many believe she attempted to
persuade the Shah that he would
have to play decisive role in what
was coming.
But whatever success the lady may
or may not have had in lining up
her brother, another messenger is
credited with the last-minute per-
suasion of the Shah. He is an
American with unusual qualiflca-
tions as an Iranian expert, Brig.
Gen. H. Norman Schwarzkopf.
Gen. Schwarzkopf's present con-
nection with the United States Gov
ernment is exceedingly vague. He
first came to the attention of the
public in 1882 when, as head of the
New Jersey police force, he led the
investigation of the Lindbergh kid
naping case. He became known in
Iran a decade later when, as an
Army colonel, he was detailed at
the request of the Iranian govern
ment to reorganize the national
police force.
A Complex Job
Being a police chief in Iran is not
quite the same thing as being police
chief in New Jersey. The job goes
well beyond the routine rounding UP
of routine criminals. To be head of
a state police force for very long
demands an intimate knowledge of
the different political, economic and
military interests that make up the
real power of the state. It is a
dangerous and delicate job. Gen.
Schwarzkopf took to it naturally.
In the course of almost six years
Che quit the job in 1948) Gen.
Schwarzkopf became one of the
most important and powerful figures
on the Iranian landscape. Being
methodical man, he built up a
filing system that made him un-
doubtedly the best-informed person
in Iran in his special field. His
knowledge of Iranian politics and
people started at the top and spread
from there to the darkest alleyways
of Teheran and to the most remote
frontier tribe.
This year. 1t happened that Gen.
Schwarzkopf's summer vacation trip
took him to the Middle East. In Q

wrestlers, armed with iron bars
and knives, began marching toward
the heart of the city shouting
pro-Shah slogans"
There is no hint where this
curious professional shock-force was
recruited or how its members hap
pened to join in concerted activity
just at that time. 1t was, however.
enough to swing the precariouS
balance of crowd psychology to the
Shah's favor.
In the serious fighting that fol-
lowed, there is some evidence that
the logistical brains we're on the
right side. When the nine-hour
tank battle ended before the home
Of Premier Mossadegh, it was his
forces which exhausted their am
munition and had to surrender.
BY Wednesday night, it was all
over Mossadegh, his forces dis
persed and disarmed, had fled in
his silk pajamas. Gen. Zahedi, who
had emerged from hiding during
the fight, proclaimed himself the
new Premier by order of the Shah.
In Rome, the bewildered young
monarch prepared to go home.
"Ninety-nine per cent Of the pop.
ulation is for me-" he told newsmen.
II knew it all the time"
It remains an open question
whether the outcome in Iran in
deed resulted simply from the
Shah's popularity, or from the ef-
forts of small group Of highly
competent individuals. 1t is, Of
course, possible to find plausible ex-
plantations for any Of the coinci.
dences assembled here-explana.
tions which support the theory Of
a purely spontaneous revolt.
Possible-but ..
It is possible that the CIA agents,
whose departure from Iran was OBJ
served and reported, were on purely
routine intelligence missions. It is
possible-aS leading columnist has
Suggested-that Mr.. HendersonS
trip to Switzerland was no more
than a policy of studied indiffer-
ence" on the part Of the State De-
partment toward the Mossadegh re-
gime A friend of the Princess
Ashraf here in Washington holds
stoutly to the view that her visit
with the Shah was undertaken SIM
ply to ask him for money. 1t is pos
sible that Allen Dulles is genuinely
fond of climbing and
that Gen. Scfwarzkopf just hap
pened to show up in Teheran at .
critical moment.
It is all perfectly possible. But as
long as the practice Of putting two
and two together continues, the ar
gument about what really happened
in Iran last summer seems likely to
continue.

to the point where Teheran was
seething with rumors of impending
revolt. The Communist press, which
had been screaming shrilly about
the activities of American agents,
seized on the Schwarzkopf visit as
confirmation of their worst fears.
In Moscow, Pravda charged that
plot was in the making, financed
out of funds appropriated by Con-
gress for "subversive work in other
countries"
Financing aside, there would have
been plenty for an American agent
to do in Teheran in those final days
before the showdown. Much OF it
concerned the military operations
that were expected-the question of
what troops could be counted on to
remain loyal to the Shah and also
the question of having them in the
right place and in condition to fight
when the time came. LogiSticS as
science is not the strong point OF
the Iranian military.

preparing for the situation that
might be expected to develop in the
streets. The action of mobs cannot
be plotted in advance, of course. But
mobs are highly suggestible. How
to present the man in the street with
the right stimulus at the right time
undoubtedly was problem for both
sides as the crisis hour approached.
BY the middle of August, the most
doubtful element in the Iranian sit
uation was the Shah himself. The
young ruler had kept conSpicuously
aloof from the currents of intrigue
swirling through his capital. At
the time, he was on vacation" at
the resort town of Ramsar on the
Caspian Sea.
There are those who find it in
credible that Gen. Schwarzkopf. as
Stunning that he was involved in
plan of revolt. should have gone to
Iran to talk with the Shah. What
surer way could have been found,
they ask, to put Mossadegh and his
Communist cronies on their guard
against what was coming?
The answer may be- first, that the
Shah himself was a vital part of
the plan. Unless he was willing to
play his part, the whole show might
be doomed No one could have
been in a stronger position to stiffen
the determination of the vacillat-
ing ruler than his former police
chief.
Secondly, by the time Gen.
Schwarzkopf arrived in Iran, the
need for secrecy may have passed.
The Communists were already thor
oughly alert to the danger and
preparations were as complete as
they could be made. The plan was
simple enough: Bring on Q show

Issues in Debate Over a Sales Tax
By the Editorial Stoff Of The Sunday Stor

The kind of tax that is now being discussed
might be either retail sales manufacturers ex-
else. But it would differ from the kind now i'm
posed in that it would be general-covering not
just few hundred items but all items except those
specifically exempted necessities of life" like
food and prescription drugs.
TT WOULD BE a tax in it's effect on the pocket
book, like that collected on sales in the District
Maryland 81 other States and several cities. But
all indications are that it would be much higher
Would it be so much higher that it would scare
off Congressman in an election year? Or the nee
essary costs of Government taken into account
would CongresS-if it is asked to authorize such
tax-heed President Eisenhower's statement last
week at Boston:
There is no sacrif1ce-no labor, no tax, no
Service-too hard for to bear to support logical
and necessary defense of our freedom"
THE ISSUES are discussed here by members of
l. The Stars staff. They express not their own
opinions but the opinions of those who favor and
oppose any kind of general sales tax.
The discussion is based on these premises:
/. The Federal Government will go roughly 81
billion in the red in fiscal 1854.
2. Taxes currently bringing in So billion year
will expire before the end of the fiscal year.
8. Outlook is for deficit in 1954-5 of the
order of $12 billion year
4. Twelve billion dollars worth of tax money
must be raised somewhere.

land, Rome and Paris, she continued
drumming up support to overthrow
Trans dictatorial Premier.
Meanwhile. as Mossadegh moved
into increasingly close cahoots with
the Communist. Tudeh Party, q sig
n1f1cant stir of activity was observed
in Washington.
At least four Middle Eastern
experts left the Capital for various
destinations early last summer. BY
the beginning of August, word had
trickled back to Washington that
all of them had shown up in
Teheran.
The State Department, meanwhile,
seemed to have something up its
sleeve. On May %, MoSsadegh
wrote to President Eisenhower, ask
ing for immediate financial help
from the United States. It was
blackmail in it's simplest form:
Mossadegh had already made it
clear that q refusal would drive him
closer into the arms of the Tudeh
Party and force him to turn to
Russia as a source of revenue.
Gen. Eisenhower waited a month
before acting. Then, with the back
ing of his top State Department ad-
visers, he turned MoSsadegh down
fatty. With the political future of
the whole Middle East at stake, the
Premier was told, in effect, 20 go
Jump in the lake. Quite apart from
the rights and wrongs of the mat
ter, it was gamble that might be
considered unthinkable without solid
reinsurance that MosSadegh would
never be able to carry out his threat.
Soon after the letter incident, our
Ambassador at Teheran, 10y Hen
derson, packed up and left for a

down with Mossadegh-make him
show his hand-then counterattack.
The Shah had the job Of throwing
the switch.
Certainly, after Gen. Schwarz-
kopf's visit to Iran, events moved
swiftly, although the general de-
MED to The Star any involvement
in the coup. Certainly. also, the
Communists and Mossadegh were
waiting for the opening gun.
The switch was thrown on Thurs
day, August 13. The Shah issued
two DEGREES. One fired Mossadegh-
the other named Gen. Zahedi to
replace him. The head of the
Imperial Guard, Col. Nematollah
Nashiri. was sent off to Teheran to
deliver the ukases.
When the colonel, accompanied
by handful of guards, arrived at
MoSSadegh'S home at midnight on
Saturday, they ran headon into a
Gordon of army tanks and jeeps.
Col. Nashiri's guards were disarmed
and he was arrested. The same night,
most of the Iranian army moved
into town armed to the teeth. Gen.
Zahedi slipped out of sight and
Premier Mossadegh issued a procla-
nation that the revolt had been
crushed.
For a while, it looked as if he
were right. To be on the safe side,
the Shah and his Queen left hastily
for Iraq-proceeding later to Rome.
Enter the Mob
Then, Wednesday morning a
curious thing happened. AS the
scene was described by a reporter
for the New York Times: "A group
of weight lifters, tumblers and

Shoh o Sister and Three Figures Coup

What really happened in Iran?
What course Of events led to the
blowup on August 19 which re-
suited in the overthrow Of Premier
Mossadegh and the triumphal re-
turn Of the Shah?
The Communists charge the en-
tire episode was engineered by
American spies. Our Government
has insisted that MosSadegh was
the victim Of an entirely sponta-
neous uprising.
There is, however, another story
Of the affair. one which ascribes a
leading role in this historic drama
to an almost unknown character
a colorful and very competent
princess named Ashraf. Some of
the elements of this story, now
making the rounds in diplomatic
circles here, seem to bear out the
Communist line that American
agents had a hand in what tran
spired. They refute, however, the
charge that the United States
master-minded the revolt entirely
on its own hook.
The CircumstontioI Case
The evidence supporting this
version Of the Iranian coup is, to be
sure, fragmentary and circumstan-
tial. But there is one significant
point to be made in it's favor. Some
diplomatic observers in Washing
ton, it is now known, accurately
predicted, in secret dispatches to
going to happen in Iran, and their
prediction was based on the evi-
dence assembled below.
First, back to the lady in the
case:
Princess Ashraf is the twin sister
of Mohammed Reza Pahlevi, Shah
of Iran. According to the people
who know her, she is quite an opera
tor. The old Shah is said to have
remarked it was too bad that she,
and not her brother, was born
woman. She is still rated as being
twice the man that the Shah is.
From the beginning of his rise to
power, Trans vaporiSh Premier Mo-
manned Mossadegh found a natu-
raj enemy in the Princess. AS the
old man tearfully frightened his
hold on the levers of national au-
thority. Ashraf fought him openly.
While her brother vacillated in his
pink marble palace, AShraf was
taking an active part in more than
one abortive plot to ouSt MoSSadegh
and restore the authority Of the
Shah.
Ousted by Mossodegh
As soon a. it was safe for him to
do so, Mossadegh had her exiled.
AShraf took her family to Europe.
Dividing her time between Switzer-
