-Four Soviet ConsuIaies
Close in Iran in Week
~ the Associcssd Press

TEHRAN. Iran, April IA
Within the last week the Soviet
consulates at Rezavieh, Ardebil,
Maku and Tabriz have closed their
doors and the consuls' families re-
turned to Russia. Other consulate
staffs in Iran are reported packed
and ready to leave at an instant s
notice. j
Moscow still has not replied TO
an Iranian suggestion that she
keep at least two consulates open
in Iran-the same as in prewar
days.
Iran had suggested to Russia
nine months ago that she limit
her consulates here to two. Russia
ignored the demand. Then the
Soviet Union finally decided to
pull out her consulates. At the
same time the Iranians smarted
under a Russian accusation that
Iran had displayed a hostile atti-
tude."
