BY the Associofed Press

TEHERAN, Iran, Jan. 3.-Iran's
underground Communist Tudeh
Party has launched a massive
propaganda campaign timed to
coincide with the return of the
couptry's ruler from his official
visit to the United States.
A high government authority
today said about a dozen persons
are being arrested daily for dis
tributing leaflets and newspapers
attacking the Shah, the United
States and Great Britain.
The stepped-up propaganda
campaign by the Tudeh Party,
which was forced underground
following an attempt on the
Shah's life last February, began
last week following the arrival in
Iran Of Daniel Simonovitch
Komissarov, former press attache
of the Soviet Embassy here.
Increased Soviet interest in Iran
recently has been indicated by the
appearance in the local press of a
series of advertisements by a
Soviet insurance company for Gin
surance agents" and an unprece-
dented offer by the Soviet hospital
here to send specialists of all
sorts" to- Iranian homes.
