Clashes threaten Bakhtiar
TEHRAN, Iran—Pro-shah troops clashed yesterday with anti-shah demonstrators, creating a major threat to the stability of Prime Minister Khatami.
At least 30 people were reported killed or injured in the violence, which took place on the first full day of Shah Mohamad Reza Pahliya's forced military crackdown.
The shah, now staying in an island hotel in Egypt, left Iran Tuesday, bowing to pressure that may make his extended "vacation" a permanent exile.
Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and his wife joined the shah and Empress Farah for a cruise on Sadat's yacht down the Nile.
The shah is expected to meet today with former President Gerald R. Ford, who arrived in Cairo yesterday. Although it is not known how long the shah will remain in Egypt, the monarch is scheduled to step in on Morocco on his way to the Palm Springs, Calif., estate of Walter Allenberg, former U.S. Ambassador to
Khomaini formina government
PARIS (AP)—Iranian opposition leader Ayatullah Khomiani said yesterday that the "provisional" government he is forming would begin work
An aide to the Khohnai, the self-elisted religious leader, also said the kohnai government would refuse to allow any nation, including the United States, to visit it.
Khominai has said he wants his government to take over for Iran's civilian government under Prime Minister Shahpour Bahktiar.
In a statement yesterday, Khomani, who is based in Paris, did not specify when his provisional government would be announced. But Sadigh Gholtab, the chief spokesman for Khomani, said:
However, there was still no word about when Kohmaini might return to Iran, the homeland he left more than 15 years ago.
President Carter, in a press conference in Washington yesterday, called on Khomaini to support the Bakhtiar government.
Carter said Bakhtiar had won the support of the Iranian military "and many of the religious opponents," after the departure of the shah on Tuesday, ending
He said he be did not know how long the shah would be away from Iran, but said the United States supported the Bakhtiar administration.
Oil shortage may force action
WASHINGTON-Tough government action may be needed if Iranian oil production is not restored by this summer. Energy Secretary James R.
Schelsinger told the Senate Energy Committee the United States was not facing an immediate oil crises because of increased imports from Saudi Arabia.
Unrest in Iran has shut down most of that country's oil production.
Schesinger said a successful voluntary conservation effort could easily offset the loss of Iranian oil and avoid the need for direct government action.
Carter saus budaet meets aoal
WASHINGTON—President Carter said yesterday that his proposed fiscal 1980 budget being sent to Congress next week will more than meet his goal of cutting the deficit below $30 billion without neglecting the needs of the nation's poor.
The president told a nationally broadcast news conference that funds for the poor actually would be increased by $4.5 million in his proposed budget for the war.
'78 earninas beat inflation rate
Carter also said his budget would be one year ahead on his pledge to reduce total federal spending to 21 percent of the Gross National Product by 1981.
WASHINGTON - The government reported yesterday that Americans earned slightly more than was lost to inflation in 1978, reducing the prospect of a recession.
The Commerce Department said the average American increased his personal income last year by 11.7 percent. The increase, which was the third in a row, was driven by a decline in corporate debt.
A Federal Reserve report showed that the nation's industries operated at 85.9 percent capacity in December, the highest level since June 1744. This was an increase from 76.5 percent capacity in May 2014.

Missile fuel leak a human error
WICHTA-Human error allowed an O-ring to clog a disconnect valve and leak thousands of gallons of toxic missile fuel. The official Air Force investigation said yesterday.
The 200-page accident report, written by a team from Whiteair Air Force Base in Missouri, said the aug. 24 Titan II oxidizer leak resulted because a maintenance team failed to install a required filter in a fuel transfer line.
From Kansan Wire Services
The report said the absence of the filter allowed an O-ring to clobber a disconnect valve, freeing the toxic gas into the underground silo.
The fuel leak killed Staff Sgt. Robert Thomas and Airman 1st Class Erby Hepstall and caused an evacuation of about 200 Rock residents.
An AIR FORCE summary said, "An O'Ring seal, which fits around the bottom of a filter element in the oxidizer service line, helps prevent contamination during an earlier maintenance activity.
"During the oxidizer operation, the O-ring 'flowed through the line when the maintenance team failed to filter a filter as it was installed." The 'ring' lodged in the shutoff valve which
BANKOK, Thailand (AP) - Heavy fighting was reported yesterday between resurging Cambodian forces and the Vietnamese forces occupying Cambodia.
Vietnam strikes Cambodia port other key areas
Thai and Western sources in Bangkok reported sharp battles and heavy air strikes in and around Kompong Som, the nation's largest airport, and other key areas in the country.
But the Pol Pot government pledged to carry on a guerrilla campaign and there were unconfirmed reports that its leaders had set up a headquarters in the mountains of southwest Cambodia or on islands off the southern coast.
The Vietnamese invaders instilled a pro-Hanoi provincial government in Cambodia on Jan. 7, replacing Pol Pot and other leaders who had ruled the country since 1975.
prevented full closure of the valve and resulted in the oxidizer leak when the line is disconnected.
The report said Thomas, who died after helping rescue another airman, and Lt. Graham Sorensen, a site maintenance officer, had left a trainee in charge during a critical step, and that Sorensen had allowed him to transfer to the transfer to be performed out of sequence.
THE REPORT said administrative actions were taken against five airmen—apparently three "senior managers" and two "supervisors"—but did not name them.
Scallorn said in the report that he "found no evidence that prescribed procedures were inadequate to have precluded this case," and found no evidence of material failure."
Air Force sources said the basic regulations relating to the refueling of the massive Titan II intercontinental atomic missiles were sound and need not be
But Jim Lifsey, a former Titan II missile commander who privately has been investigating the accident, said he had seen several technical orders that had been emphasized to provide specific attention to filters and the disconnect procedure.
REP. DAN GLICKMAN, D-Kan, said yesterday he had scanned the report and confirmed that one section detailed apparent malfunctions in full-body protection
The report said one suit was deteriorated near one cuff and glove and had several scuffed areas on the left leg, and another suit had a cut at one knee.
However, the report did not conclude whether the suits were improperly manufactured, were damaged during escape maneuvers or were damaged by rescuers dragging the victims out of the toxic fumes.
A STATEMENT from Strategic Air Command headquarters at Omaha, Neb., said Heptall was killed and an airman, Carl Malinger, was injured because they removed their helmets in a contaminated atmosphere—reportedly because the pressurized oxidizer had partially melted helm viewpoints.
The release said Thomas was outside the silo when the leak began and quickly donned a suit two sizes too small to engage in the rescue efforts.
The SAC release said defects in the suits "cannot be entirely ruled out, but the best available evidence is that they were in good condition."
