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.

CITY BRIEFS i
Jury Frees Killer Daily,
Dakota Town Approves
By MURRAY M. MOI.ER
DEADWOOD, S.D. (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.

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.

years for meeting proDiems 01 mai

"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

others have come from nongov

"I have asked the committee
staff to continue work on a res
ume of all such suggestions ana 1

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.

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.
