Labor problems plaque Iran
TEHRAN, Iran—Opponents of Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi pressured Iran's military government yesterday with a wave of wildcat strikes aimed at disrupting the oil-rich nation's battered economy and keeping the country on edge.
The walkouts, the latest in a string of stoppages and slowdowns, came amid fears that the labor troubles will soon spread into the streets during the Moslem riot.
Conservative Moslem leaders have led the campaign to remove the shah, who has pressured ahead with a modernization drive and reforms that conservative religious leaders find untenable. They have been joined by the shah's political opposition, which finds fault with the shah's authoritarian rule.
Troops took over Tehran's oil refinery west of the city after workers continued a slowdown for the third straight day, causing some shortages.
Employees at Air Iran, the national airline, staged a three-hour walkout to protest the arrest of leaders of an eight-day shutdown earlier this month that targeted Iran's nuclear program.
The protesters warned the government that they would stage a full-scale strike if the detainees were not released by midnight Wednesday.
Troops also were drafted to guard the headquarters of the state-controlled National Iranian Radio and Television Network after employees walked out to protest the government's refusal to allow seven national daily newspapers to publish without censorship.

His decision is not final until the five-member commission has a chance to review it. If the commission approves it, as ex-
tended in the ACA could appeal to a federal appeals court.
Robert B. Hunter, chairman of the AMA board of trustees, said in Chicago that "the AMA is a firm advocate for professionalism" in the ruling was a provision that the AMA would be permitted to participate in the setting of ethical decisions regarding its retiring after first obtaining FTC approval.
"WE DON'T feel that lawyers, dentists, engineers, and other professionals, labor organizations, state and local government entities should have to ask the federal government if they can issue ethical guidelines that those guidelines should say," Hunter said.
He insisted that the AMA favored physician advertising and a free flow of public information about health care services. He also stressed his role in pressleading advertising and its adverse

THE PIVOTAL rink in this series was as June 1977 decision by the Supreme Court, striking down the American Bar Association's advertising, which was similar to the AMA's.
The decision comes after a series of rulings in recent years that have given lawyers, engineers, druggists and optometrists the right to advertise.
After the high court's decision, the ABA revised its code of ethics. One result has been the proliferation of low-cost legal clinics. In these clinics, cases such as uncontested divorces have been handled with greater fines and penalties by lawyers at a small part of the previous cost.
Such a development, resulting in reduced medical fees to a clear possibility if the Bayer company succeeds.
The AMA's advertising restrictions are embodied in its Principles of Medical Ethics and are enforced by the AMA and affiliated organizations. In order to comply with these affiliates, the Connecticut State Medical Society and the New Haven County Medical Association, Inc., also were cited in the case, which the FTC began Dec. 19, 1975. The AMA has issued a long series of hearings before the judge.
