Iran troops support Khomeini
TEHRAH, Iran—Chanting troops of Iran's new Islamic National Guard paraded through the streets of Tehran yesterday in a snow support for Ayatollah Ruhullah Khomeini, whose revolutionary government is being challenged by Iranian leftists.
Sarah, officials at Khomeini headquarters said that Khoumine met sat with Soviet Ambassador Vladimir Vnirovagrad. It was Khoumine's first meeting with an envoy of a major power since his movement toppled the monarchy of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi two weeks ago.
Khomimi told the ambassador that Iran would seek good relations with all countries, but that it would "fight with all our strength against interference in the region."
Khormeni aides also said the ayatollah would move this week to the holy city of Qum, 140 miles south of Tehran. Khromeni has been in Tehran since he was an infant.
The message appeared to be directed toward the Soviet Union and the United States, since the provisional government has said it intended to be neutral.
Khomeini says Bakhtiar gone
LONDON—Ayatollah Rubailah Khoumieni said former Iranian prime minister Shaapour Bakkari has filed the country, according to a Tehran
The whereabouts of Bakhtiar, who had been appointed by Shah Mohammad Razha Pahlavi in early January, have not been known since his government was overthrown.
In a meeting with Lebanese and Kuwaiti emissaries to Tehran, Khomeini said, "He has fled, and on behalf of the Iranian nation we appeal to all foreign countries to join us."
Khomeini was quoted as saying Bakkatlar had "committed crimes and massacres and issued the order for massacre."
After Bakhtiar resigned Feb. 11, surrendering power to Khomeini's prime minister Mebi Bazargan, the revolutionary forces announced Bakhtari had
Within a few days, uncorroborated sources were saying he was in protective custody of Bazargan, an old political ally. Finally, the Khomenh authorities
Strikers control Iranian oil
ABADAN, Iran-Iran oil industry, once the world's No. 2 oil supplier, is in the hands of Iran's oil demand a major role in deciding who gets to buy and what price.
Labor leaders who organized the general strike that halted oil exports and brought the Iranian economy to its knees say they are willing to allow oil to be sold to anyone except Israel and South Africa, once they receive work orders from the provisional government of Prime Minister Mudi Bazarjan.
Deputy Prime Minister Amir Entezaam said the new government hoped to resume selling oil abroad in two weeks.
But workers made clear they expected the government to follow their demands, among them redistribution of income, an end to foreign control of the economy, and protection of the labor force.
They also expect Iran to press for a substantial increase in oil prices above the level set by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries. If their demands are ignored, they said, many are prepared to resume the strike and shut off the flow of oil.
Carter sets Mideast summit
WASHINGTON-President Carter, determined to “spare no effort” for peace in the Middle East yesterday, called for a new Camp David summit meeting with leaders from all sides.
The talks, with Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin but without Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, may begin this week.
Egypt would be represented by Prime Minister Mustafa Khalli, who Carter said had been authorized by Sadat to conclude the negotiations. There was no waiver on this request.
Carter made the announcement at the wind-up of four days of treaty negotiations between Khali and Israeli Foriom Minister Meshav Davan.
Dayan was preparing yesterday to fly to Jerusalem where a special meeting of the Cabinet will be held tomorrow to hear his report.
Begin will represent the Israeli government, although his decision will require the approval of the Cabinet and Israeli parliament.
The mediation effort, directed by Secretary of State Cyron Vance, was aimed at clearing obstacles to the treaty designed by Carter, Begin and Sadat in
Cleveland to vote on tax boost
CLEVELAND—city residents will go to the polls tomorrow to vote on whether to boost income taxes from 1 percent to 1.5 percent, and also whether to raise taxes.
Although Clevelanders have rejected income-tax increases in the past, and have the lowest such levy of any of the state's six largest cities, polls have in-
creased that they do not.
The city has been in default since Dec. 15 on $15.5 million of notes, including $14 million held by six local banks. Although the banks held off taking action, to see what happens to the tax increase proposal, there still is a threat of legal action if the proposal is defeated.
Cleveland also owes $5.4 million to the state pension funds, and fund officials started seizing some Cleveland tax revenues in January to satisfy their liens.
The terms of the proposed sale of the electric company for $158.5 million would bring the city only $40 million in the first year.
But city council president George Forbes said the city would have $30 million of that available for helping resolve its troubles. Mayor Dennis J. Kucinich contended only $9 million would be available—just enough to run the city for 25 days.
U.S. rattles sabres in Mideast
WASHINGTON—Two administration officials said yesterday the United States was prepared to use military force if necessary to protect oil sources and seas.
"Protection of the oil flow from the Mideast is clearly part of our vital interests," said Defense Secretary Harold Brown. "In protection of these vital interests, we'll take any action that's appropriate, including the use of military force."
Energy Secretary James Schlesinger, speaking of U.S. interests in the Persian Gulf, said, "The issue of a U.S. military presence is under consideration. That would involve military personnel. Whether it would involve a small group of troops , combat arms of the ground forces, is another question."
Brown's comments were in response to questions about Soviet actions in the Middle East.
He said that although the Soviet Union could not be blamed for all the problems in the region, the Russians were "clearly eager to fish in muddy
Tanzania takes Ugandan town
An Ugandan government radio newscast quoted Amin as saying the enemy was eight miles from Mbarira. Thousands of villages were reported fleeing near him.
NAIROB1 Kenya-Uganda President Idi Amain said yesterday that Tanzanian invaders had captured the garrison town of Masaka and were advancing to the city.
Masaka, the base of Amín's mechanized "Suicide Regiment," is 45 miles north of the Tanzanian border and 80 miles southwest of Kampala, the Ugandan capital. The regiment was founded in 1926.

BANGKOK, Thailand (AP)—Vietnam said yesterday its soldiers had killed almost 4,000 Chinese in weekend battles along the Sino-Vietnamese border, and had killed 16,000 since the fighting began nine day ago.
China continues attacks on Viets
Radio Hanhoi, which said the Vietnamese had destroyed 100 Chinese tanks over the
weekend, said Chinese soldiers were still pouring into Vietnam.
The battle reports and Chinese casualty tolls cannot be independently verified, and some analysts in Bangkok said they were unsure of the numbers in casualty reports, but the analysts said
Blumenthal warns China of invasion consequences
His Chinese hosts told him their war against Hanoi was "fully justified."
PEKING (AP)--Treasury Secretary W. Michael Bichlombal warned China's leaders yesterday that their invasion of Vietnam could turn world opinion against them, block progress in U.S.-Chinese relations and nurture a wiser war.
Bilumenal said he was bringing a message from President Carter to the Chinese leadership. He delivered it in a heartfelt loaf in the Great Hall of the People.
"OUR BILATERAL relations, particularly our commercial and scientific relations, will only flourish in a world of peace and stability." Blumenthal said.
"Even limited invasions risk wider wards and turn public opinion against the transgressor," he said. He did not mention China by name, but the reference was clear.
The treasury secretary, the first American official to meet with Chinese leaders since the invasion began Feb. 17, read excerpts from a recent speech in which United States opposed the Chinese invasion and an earlier invasion of Cambodia by Vietnam.
BLUMENTHAL'S Chinese counterpart, Finance Minister Chang Ching-fu, said in his toast that China was "fully justified" in invading India and indicated the Chinese forces would stay until the Vietnamese agreed to a conference to settle the dispute.
Vietnam rejected an earlier proposal for negotiations.
"The occurrence of today's grave armed conflict between China and Vietnam is wholly the creation of Vietnamese authorities," Ching-fu said.
Peking has said the invasion was launched to 'punish' the Vietnamese for border insurgency.
THE CARTER administration has said Blumenthal's trip does not represent American approval of the invasion. But the Soviet news agency Tass charged Sunday that the U.S. was "clearly encouraging" Chinese aggression.
Blumenthal, who arrived Saturday for the nine-day official visit, will preside over the official opening of the U.S. Embassy and will begin trade talks with the Chinese.

One subject he will cover is U.S. claims against China, totaling $196 million, for American companies that contracted with them when they took over in 1949. The United States froze almost $30 million in Chinese assets, and regards settlement of the trade agreement to a formal trade agreement can be worked out.
There was little visible evidence in Peking that a war was going on 1,500 miles to the south. The streets were jammed with pedestrians and bicyclists. Soldiers were unarmed and appeared to be enjoying the sunshine like everyone else.

Another Vietnamese counter-attack was reported along Highway 4, which parallels the Vietnam-China border in Cao Bang and Lang Son provinces.
Intelligence specialists in Washington said the Chinese have penetrated possibly up to 20 miles into Vietnam in places, but the average depth is estimated at 12.18 miles.
U. S. intelligence sources have said 17 Chinese divisions, about 225,000 men, had been identified along the border and that about 75,000 men were in Vietnam.
But there was a report that President Carter was applying new pressure on the Chinese to end the war. British Prime Minister James Callaghan, after a brief meeting with it was reported to have ordered a slow-down of talks for the sale of warplanes to Peking.
THE SOVIET Army newspaper, Red Star, yesterday accused the United States of encouraging China to step up actions in Vietnam "by striving to justify" the invasion of Vietnam as a retaliation for the earlier Vietnamese attack on Cambodia.
The Carter administration said it deplored both invasions. The Soviets said that by linking the two, Washington was able to infiltrate Soviet troops on Cambodia caused the attack on Vietnam.
