FRIDAY. AUGUST 8. 19S8 HERALD ANT) NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE 3 A Few Changes Seen Despite New Government in Iraq TEHRAN (AP)-Few of the de velopments since July 14 when the new Iraq regime came to power had a completely new sound for Iranians. They had been telling American officials for some time that Iraq, an Arab country, was the weak link in the Baghdad Pact. The Soviet Union, oil, Kurds, monarchy and Communists have been jumbled in Iran's affairs since World War II. There were Soviet - supported Communist republics in Iranian Azerbaijan, bordering the Soviet Union, and in the adjoining area of the Kurd tribes. These are gone. There was a strong nationwide Communist party, the Tudch. It is virtually nothing now. Under an emotional, sometimes weeping Prime Minister, Iran na tionahzed the oil industry and Brought the nation near bank ruptcy. Oil is thriving now under a new regime. The same man Mohammed Mossadegh tried to displace the monarchy in 1953, but the mobs he had taught to storm through the streets helped to throw him out of office insead. After three years in prison, he quicly runs a big iarm, wun pontics lorbiddcn iran s monarchy seems more stable than ever. Even so the gov ernment hesitated three davs be fore allowing newspapers to report the assassination of King Faisal of Iraq. On the heels of the Iraqi coup and the landing of American Ma rines in Lebanon, the Soviet Union announced it was holding large scale maneuvers in the Caucasus region bordering Iran and Turkey. Iranians seemed to accept the statement as one pressure play in a larger game. Soviet forces usu ally hold maneuvers in the area about this time of year, although the Soviets normally haven't made public and prominent announce ments of them. Just south of the Soviet border lies Iran tin Azerbaijan. In the same area is the homeland of the Kurds, a sometime violent tribe that spreads into adjoining parts of Iraq and Turkey. Alter World War II, these two areas declared themselves auton omous republics, led by the Tudeh parly and backed by Soviet troops United Nations debates, support from the West and Iranian-Soviet negotiations brought the withdraw al of Soviet troops. Today the Cairo radio calls on the Kurds of Iran, Iraq and Tur key to unite. These broadcasts have not upset the situation ir Kurdistan, Iranian officials say but the government has promised to spend more development mon ey in the backward area. After Mossadegh was ousted. Iran cracked down on the Tudeh party with a rough hand. Firing squads executed 34 Communists mostly army and police officers Several thousand reds are- still in jail. Observers say the party was virtually annihilated in the drive led by Gen. Teimour Bakhtiar, head of the Security Information Department. 1 A V.M :? v H I SURPRISE ENTERTAINMENT is in store for members of Reames Golf and Country Club and their guests Saturday night, August 9, at a Hawaiian Luau, when these seven behind the sheet, left to right, Llye Kellstrom, George Dugan, Jack Robbins, Jimmy Valentine, T.

(UPI) A man branded as a "known killer" roams the streets of historic Dead wood every day. Five times a week, he is "cap tured," "tried" by an improvised court and jury, found not guilty and ordered to leave town. But he never does. If Jack McCain, alias "Crooked Nose Jack," did leave, it would spoil much of the summer fun for the 4,000 residents of Deadwood. It would Spoil things for the thousands of tourists who visit the Black Hills mining district every summer and join in re-creating the legendary events that followed Mc- Call's shooting of Wild Bill Hick ok on August 2. 1876. Admittedly, the re-enactment is pretty much "hammed" up. But It's all in fun and proceeds from admissions paid to see the trial go to the Deadwood Chamber of Commerce for civic purposes. The roles of Jack McCall, Ca ' lamity Jane, Alkali Ike, and Judge ' Kuykendall have been played dur ing the 20 years of the drama by residents of Deadwood. Seven ; regulars serve on the jury, ljut the other five jurors are picked from the audience. One day, they included this reporter. The basic story is that Ilickok came to Deadwood, a rip-roaring mining camp, from Abilene, Kan sas, where he had served as mar shal and reputedly killed 21 men in the line of duty. Deadwood was so disorderly, the itory goes, that Hickok was about to be named marshal here. Law less elements supposedly brided McCall to kill Wild "Bill. olon Offers Research Aid McCall found Hickok playing poker in Saloon No. in on Dead- wood's Main Street, his back to the door, contrary to his usual practice. In his hand were a pair of aces and a pair of eights and a fifth card whose value has never been satisfactorily established The assassin came behind Ilickok. shot him through the head and then ran out, only to be cap tured a block away. At the trial, the story of the kill ing is related by witnesses, in cluding Calamity Jane. A "de fense attorney argues for Mc- Call's acquittal on grounds that the court in 1876 there were no regular courts yet established here had no legal status. lhe jury retires and returns an acquittal verdict. The judge acts incensed at this "miscarriage of justice," and orders McCall to leave town. In real life, McCall did leave town, only to be arrested by a federal marshal later in Cheyenne, Wyoming. He was tried in Yank ton, then capital of Dakota Terri tory, and found guilty on Decem ber 6, 1876. He was hanged at Yankton on March 1, 1877.

WASHINGTON (AP)-Sen. Hu bert H. Humphrey (D-Minn) un dertook today a personal assign ment to provide the State Depart ment with policy ammunition tor the United Nations session on the Middle East. He said that Republicans threw cold water yesterday on his pro posal that the Senate Foreign Re lations Committee itself provide the material a resume of sug gestions made over the past few years for meeting proDiems 01 mai crisis-ridden area. "Some of mv Republican friends felt that such a course might be construed as criticism of the State Department or an ellort to dictate foreign policy, numpnrey iuiu a reporter. That is not my thought at all. Some very valuable suggestions have heon made by various mem- horc nf the committee in speccnes in the Senate and elsewhere, and others have come from nongov ernmental people. "I have asked the committee staff to continue work on a res ume of all such suggestions ana 1 nian in fnrward them to Secre tary Dulles personally not with the idea of telling the department what to do, but to be sure our people have the benefit of all the thinking that has been done on this very complicated suojeci. The committee questioned Ger ald C. Smith, assistant secretary of state for policy planning, at the lengthy session behind closed doors yesterday. 2 DAY Service F.KTAI H none J nnnrnn rnno WMIHH WOT 706 MAIN IT and TOWNACOUNTtV CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) Accion Democratica, Venezuela's biggest political party, wants to see the nation get more profits from its oil and iron riches. That is one of its chief platform planks in the national elections to be held in November. The government share is run ning over 2'i million dollars daily. A year ago, before the United States restricted imports of oil from Venezuela, it was around three millions. Accion Democratica, with, over 600,000 members, is almost big ger than all the olher political parties combined. Its leader is stocky, graying Romulo Betan court, an economist who was pro visional president from 1945 lo 1947. The policies and philosophy of his party are left of center. But Betancourt emphasizes: 'We arc not Communists and we do not want the help of the Communists." Betancourt feels more benefits should come from oil and iron to improve living standards of the people. Venezuela today is ruled by a civilian-military junta. Despite inroads the Communists have made since the January revolu tion, Betancourt said he is confi dent no "popular front" govern ment will ever be established here. He told The Associated Press: The fundamental problem of Latin America, at the moment, is not communism. It is the low standard of living, the hunger and misery, the underdevelopment and in some countries the pres ence ot dictators. "But to allow these conditions to go on and worsen will mean the presence of communism." Betancourt pointed out that Venezuela as a nation is the rich est in Latin America, but there are widespread poverty and unemployment.
