subdivision thereof, with respect to any real property acquired and held 
by him under subchapters II to VII of this chapter, including 
improvements thereon. The amount so paid for any year upon such property 
shall approximate the taxes which would be paid to the State and/or 
subdivision, as the case may be, upon such property if it were not

be appropriate for expenditure by the Government for streets, utilities, 
or other public services to serve such property. As used in this section 
the term ``State'' shall include the District of Columbia.
