Shah's gall bladder removed
NEW YORK- Surgeons removed the Shah of Istanbul's gall bladder yesterday and checked to see if his long-standing cancer of the lymph glands had worsened. A spokesman for the deposed ruler said recovery without complications was anticipated.
Outside the hospital, as Shah Mohammad Raza Pahliya was undergoing a surgery, a crowd of about 160 demonstrators changed "Death to the shah," and they were beaten. The police later said
Robert Aramo, the spokesman for Pahlavi, said the shah would be hospitalized for two to three weeks.
"He is far from breathing his last breath, but obviously, he is an ill man," he said.
The U.S. State Department cleared the shah for the trip here, but only for as long as he remained hospitalized.
Pahali was toppled from his throne last January by the revolutionary forces of the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. The shah has since been sentenced to death by a revolutionary court in Iran and a $135,000 price has been put on his head.

WASHINGTON - Sen. Edward M. Kendeny will announce the formation of an "exploratory" committee committee Monday, an aide said yesterday.

Carter's campaign committee has protested the unofficial campaign organizing by charging that the effusive centrally orchestrated from there (as in the draft).

WASHINGTON—The Justice Department said yesterday that it would not oppose Amtrak's decision to shut down the National Limited line connecting New York and Kansas City, despite increased passengers during the recent gas shortage.
In papers filed in federal court, the Justice Department urged U.S. District Judge Lloyd Oberderoy to dismiss a lawsuit by step, Tony Hall, D-Ohio, and the Justice Department against him.

Woman guilty of sex charges
HARTVILLE, Mo. A-72 year-old woman charged with rape under a new Missouri law has pleaded guilty to lesser charges.
A Wright County Circuit Court official said yesterday that Comnie Sapiennic of Mountain Grove had pleaded to two counts of misdemeanor assault on a deputy.

Also this month, a 21-year-old Moberly woman, Debra Lee Timmons, was charged with statutory rape of a 12-year-old boy and sexual assault in illegal possession of drugs.
The state attorney general's office said the two women were the first charged under a new criminal code that took effect Jan. 2.
Prior to the new code, the woman could have been charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor, punishable by a maximum six-month jail term, or being denied entry into the country.
Under the new code the maximum sentence is 15 years for statutory rape and seven years on each count of sexual assault.

AMA told to end restrictions
The FTC, in a decision to be appealed to the federal courts, said the AMA illegally restrained competition among its 200,000 members, a majority of AMA
WASHINGTON - The American Medical Association has kept doctors' bills high by campaigning against competition among physicians, the Federal Trade Commission said.
It ordered the AMA to end "ethical" restrictions on member doctors that rule out advertising and other ways of attracting patients through low fees.
An FTCP spokesman said it was impossible to say how much extra Americans support it, but we are convinced that the record of this case supports a finding of suspicion.
The FTC ordered the AMA to stop restraining its members from soliciting patients by advertising and other means. It also banned AMA action to interfere with doctor's ability to work for low-cost group health plans by branding the arrangement unethical.

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Carter committed the United States government yesterday to providing $80 million in aid to children whose parents 'award' a "tragedy of genocidal proportion."
U.S. promises aid to Cambodia
The president's announcement and Kennedy's criticism followed approval by the House Foreign Affairs Committee of a bill authorizing the expenditure of $30 million to the Cambodians. Carter intervened to $30 million in the program he announced.
Carter's proposal came little more than an hour after Sen. Edward M. Kennedy criticized the administration for moving too quickly in millions of Camibianans who face starvation.
Carter, equating the famine in Cambodia with the World War II Holocaust, told reporters: "We now face once again the
prospect of avoidable death. We must acvailly to save the men, women and children who are our brothers and sisters in God's family."
Sens. James Sasser, D-Tenn, John Danforth, R-Mo, and Max Baucus, D-Mont, the first U.S. officials to visit the Cambodian capital since the communist government Foreign Minister Hun Sen of the plan to track 1,000 tons of aid into Cambodia daily.
**THREE U.S. senators sent Pinom Penth for 12 hours yesterday and they said no approval is needed to launch a mission that could save hundreds of thousands of lives.**
They said that he was appreciative, and that he told them it would be up to Cambodia's Communist Party Central Committee to approve the plan.
"We stated to them and we re-state for the world that the decision is now in their hands. We have been told from Danford not told a news conference. Everyone else has said yes. We are now waiting for the verdict."
THE SENATORS said their plan could be operational within days of Cambodia's approval.
They said Cambodia's officials admitted that thousands of people would die each day if enough aid is not received.
According to Cambodian and international estimates, from 2 to 3 million people, out of a population estimated at ground 4 million, could starve to death.
Sasser said the Cambodians guaranteed them security for the convoy, and said that 80 percent to 90 percent of the war-torn city would be reached without a security problem."
Guerrillaris of the ousted Pot Pol regime continue to battle the Vietnamese and the Heng Samrin government they have incited. A number of refugees barred fires from inside Cambodia landed inside a refuge camp and in a camp on the Thai coast to buy supplies from Thailand.
DANFORTH SAID the senators returned "optimistic" and planned to report to Carter.

The senators said the aid would be distributed by international agencies already sending in limited aid by air in a $100 million international effort.
SILENT RUNNING
Under the senators' plan, truck workers deliver food and medicine from the THP to hospitals in Thailand. The 1,000-ton a day plan would equal estimates by Western aid groups of what needed to be delivered in one day.
