hammed Reza Pahlevi today anc
backed away clutching pieces OF
paper making their landowners

Mossayab Bavdahdaz, waving his

royal day"
The ceremony in this village

augurated the youthful Shah's
program for breaking up the vast
royal estates into small tracts fol
sale to peasants on easy terms.
The Shah hopes his program
will be but a first step toward q
land reform program which will
bulwark the country's economy
against the persistent threat OF
communism. The poverty and
semifeudal conditions of most
Iranian farmers makes them an
easy target for Communist propa-
ganda from Russia-Iran'S power

For this he has agreed to pay

u. 5. Officials Believe
Soviet Satellites Got
Surplus Army Goods
BY the Associoted Press

FRANKFURT, Germany, Mar
I17.-United States officials today
investigated sales of United States
Army surplus equipment in which
big European operators are suS-
pected of reaping fabulous profits.
Some of the American equip
ment is believed to have gone to
help arm Russian satellite coun-
tries.
The West German government
acting on American requests
froze all property in the hands of
STEG, the German state corpora
ton set up to dispose of Army
surplus.
Records OF one Frankfurt COM
pany dealing with STEG were
seized in raid by police yesterday
on a warrant issued by the United
States District Court here.
District Attorney w. Fred john
son. from ST. Louis, Mo-, said the
firm was believed connected with
George Dawson, a British busi-
nessman who has dealt heavily in
Army surplus property.
Mr.. johnson said the firms
books will be audited to see
whether the company has been
shipping Army trucks into Soviet
bloc countries. and whether there
is any indication of collusion with
ISTEG.
Dawson has been sought for
several months on warrant
issued by the United States Dis
trict Court here The warrant ac-
cuses him of misrepresentation
and false statements in a pur-
chase of surplus property.
United States customs officials
identified the firm raided yester-
day as the one which attempted
last August to ship 1850 Army
trucks to Communicated Hun
gary. The first consignment of
337 Of the trucks was seized at
the East German border by Gus
toms officials.
