The Rev. Ndabangah Sithole issued a statement that his party, the Zimbabwe African National Union, would not recognize the elections until the election was complete.
Sithels said reports from Parliamentary districts indicated that the election had been "stage managed" by the white government.

Amin said to have visited Iraq
NARHOI, Kenya—Ousted Ugandan dictator Idi Amin was in Iraq during the weekend on a shopping trip to Arab states for weapons to us or to reclaim them.
Amin traveled from Uganda to Libya last week after Tanzanian forces took over Uganda and ousted his eight year old government. Iraq and Libya are the states that gave Amin his greatest support in establishing his Moslem-minority government.
"The reports of Amin's plan to return to Uganda raised questions about the strength of the 2-week-old government of Vusufu Lule, who was installed by the leader."
Independent analysts said Amin could not hope for immediate military successes against the superior Tanzanian forces. They pointed out that Amin's efforts had been unsuccessful.
Expected last stands by Amin's troops did not materialize and Tanzanian forces were driving north and east from Kampala on search-and-

Iranian aeneral assassinated
TEHRAN, Iran—A high-ranking military officer of the new Iranian government was gunned down yesterday in the first assassination of a major figure
The victim, Gen. Mohammed Vall Gharami, the former army chief of staff, was shot and killed in his garden. No group has claimed responsibility for the
Gharani was once an intelligence officer for Shah Mohammed Reza Pahavi, but he was jailed for anti-marchist views. He then served in the revolutionary army until March 27 when he was forced to resign after failing to convince troops who deserted during the revolution to return to their barracks.
In northern Iran, new fighting broke out between the Turkish and Kardinian tribesmen after a second truce sponsored by the government down a Azerbaijani border.
About 150 people were reported to have been killed during the fighting, which started Friday.
The Islamic government sent nine more men to firing squads yesterday, bringing the total executed since the revolution to 158.
Israel accused of shell attacks
TYRE, Lebanon-Palestinian and Lebanese officials charged that Israelis guns and missile boards pounded Palestinian camps in southern Lebanon
The officials said the shelling lasted more than an hour. No casualty reports were given.
However, Israeli military officials in Tel Aviv denied knowledge of any shelling of Palestinian targets in Lebanon.
On Sunday, Israel gunboats shelled a Palestinian camp on the northern Lebanese coast in retaliation for a guerrilla raid.
The man, Fedor Fedenkore, is accused of obtaining his citizenship by fraud because he failed to tell naturalization officials about his work in the prison.
Man's citizenship challenged
NEW ORLEANS – A 70-year-old man accused of serving as a Nazi guard in World War II should forfeit his U.S. citizenship because he lied about his past, a Justice Department attorney told the 5th U.S. District Court of Appeals in New Orleans yesterday.
In 1978 a district judge ruled that the government had failed to meet its burden of proof that Fedorenko had concealed his past. The judge said that the government had not acted in good faith.
This decision brought complaints from the American Jewish Congress and the B'Mal B'nith organization. These groups said Fedorenko's good behavior violated religious beliefs.
A naturalized American can lose his citizenship if the facts he lied about were important enough to warrant denial of citizenship. Fedeleko could be deported
Wheat cartel called unworkable
WASHINGTON—Sen. Nancy Kassebau, R-Kan., said yesterday that a price-fixing wheat cartel would not work.
Some wheat producers in the United States have supported a cartel—like that of Middle Eastern oil producers—to drive up the price of wheat.
Kassebaum said that farmers would have to be realistic about the problems of low prices and the differences between wheat and oil.
They said plant operators were not adequately trained or prepared to deal with the unexpected malfunctions that endangered Three Mile Island and made mistakes that worsened the accident. And they said the Three Mile Island plant was reliant on equipment that proved unreliable when it was most needed.
"I basically don't see that a cartel, as such, would work." Kassebaum said to a meeting of the News Paper Farm Editors of America.
Speaking to the same group earlier in the day, Howard W. Hjort, an economist for the Department of Agriculture, said a cartel would be a disaster
Hjert said that a cartel would raise prices so that other wheat producing countries would be able to produce more and take advantage of the market.
Skies today will be mostly sunny. Temperatures will rise to 75 degrees, according to the National Weather Service.

Saudis to break relations with Egypt as punishment
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AP)–Saudi Arabia decided yesterday to break diplomatic relations with Egypt in compliance with the Baghdad Arab summit decision, made last month to impose sanctions on Iraq. The Saudi government, the official Saudi news agency reported.
The Babcock & Wilcox design, they said.
The sanctions are intended to punish President Awad Sawat for signing a peace agreement.
KUWAIT ANNOUNCED earlier that Egypt's diplomatic relations with Egypt for the sovereign state
The agency said the decision was made at a Cabinet meeting in Riyadh under Deputy Premier Prince Abdallah bin Abdul Aziz, commander of the Saudi national guard.
Information Minister Mohammed Abdo Yarami said the decision to sever relations with Egypt was taken "because Egypt accepted and planned to exchange diplomatic representation with the Zionist enemy Israel."
Arab diplomatic sources said all 19 Arab League members that participated in the anti-Sadat Baghdad meeting would take similar action soon.
Reports from Cairo said Sadat had ordered his government to take "parallel measures" if Arab countries broke off relations with Egypt.
