This is an excerpt from a U.S. Department of State document about Abolghasem Kashani's request of money from the American mbassy in exchange for his support of their policies in Iran. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://history.state.gov/historicaldocuments/frus1951-54IranEd2/d43">Despatch From the Embassy in Iran to the Department of State,  No. 224,  Tehran, August 20, 1951.</a>: "In Kashani’s career there is a thin thread of consistency. Throughout, he has opposed British interference in Iranian affairs. The consistency ends there, except perhaps for his opportunism. CAS reports that he can be bribed. He has at least on one occasion made overtures to the American Embassy here for financial support in return for which, presumably, he would support United States policies."
Arthur L. Richards, Counselor of Embassy
