American Revenue Reform in Persia

Two young revenue officers who have been in the service of the United States Government in the Philippines, Frank S. Cairns and W. Morgan Shuster, have been selected by the Shah of Persia to save that empire from possible financial ruin. It is said the obsolete revenue system of Persia, one of the oldest in the world, will be abolished, and the American system adopted in its stead. And that could be improved, judged by its past.
