Iran Prepares 10 Call
ENJOYS Home # Britain
Rejects Oil Proposal
Mossodeeh UItimotum
For Favorable Reply in
10 Days Expires Saturday
BY the Associated Press

TEHERAN, Iran. Oct. 2.-Pre-
mier Mohammed Mossadegh said
today if Britain doesn't agree to
his latest proposals for settling the
oil dispute, Iran would withdraw
her diplomats from London, an
action short of a full break in
relations.
The statement came in an an
that the Premier was
polling Iranisns at home and
abroad to determine which coun-
try should handle Trans interests
in Britain if the ENJOYS come
home.
Seems to Expect Rejection.
Mr.. Mossadegh limited last
month in a speech to the Mails
that Iran might break relations
unless British economic and other
pressures arising out OF the OIL
dispute were lifted.
But this was the first indication
that Mr.. Mossadegh was linking
acceptance of his latest Oil pro-
posals with the threat OF a break.
It was also the first hint that he
expected Britain's answer to his
proposals to be unsatisfactory.
Mr.. Mossadegh had given Bri-
tain 10 days to reply to his pro-
posals and that period expires Sat-
urday. Sources in London have
indicated the British would not &C
cept the Mossadegh proposals but
would make every effort to keep
the door open for further nego-
tiations. The Iranian proposals
included a demand for payment of
back oil royalties which have been
frozen since Iran nationalized the
British owned oil industry.
Choice of Caretaker Sought.
The announcement from the
Premier'S office today said:
I'm view of the fact that if
Britain does not agree to the re-
cent proposals of the Iranian
government the government of
Iran will be compelled to recall
her diplomatic representatives
from Britain. Therefore. one Of
the questions before the coming
sessions of the Council of Min
listers (the cabinet) will be the
following: Would it be better to
refer the safeguarding of the in
terests of Iranian subjects in
Britain to one of the European
countries or one of the Asian
countries; and. in the latter case,
which would be preferable?
He asked all interested Iranians
to write or telegraph their views
on the question.

'Water-5ewer Needs
Put al SOB Million by
|Citizen-Adviser Unit
Long-Runee Program
Also Urged to Provide
Adequate Service
By John w. Stepp


More than $103 million of a rec
commended 1919 million public
works construction program should
be devoted to improving Wash
ington's sewer and water systems
i'm a six-year immediate needs
period.
This was the strong urging OF
the Sewer and Water Subcommit-
tee of the Citizens Advisory Com
Imittee on Public Works. in a re-
port released today. Everett j.
Boothby,. president of the Wash
ington Gas Light Co., heads the
subcommittee.
The subgroup's recommendation
even went further. Members set
out 10 and 80 year schedules Of
capital outlay for the two divi-
sions. In 10 years, $152.8 million
should be spent. in 80 years
grand total of $278 million.
But the six-year goal should be
pursued vigorously, the subcom-
mittee emphasized. That con-
struction schedule would provide
"only the barest minimum to make
certain the necessary facilities will
be available to provide adequate
and reliable service at all times"
Higher Rates Suggested.
The Boothby committee relied
heavily on work programs pre-
pared by the District Water Divi-
sion, the Washington Aqueduct
and the Sewer Division.
To help finance the short-term
water program. the subcommittee
suggested raising the present wa
ter rates by at least Is per cent
While the city already has au-
thority to borrow $23 million from
the Treasury to expand the water
system, more must be borrowed
to meet the goal. the subcommit-
tee found.
1t was strongly emphasized
that, in both suggested tax levies
the Federal Government should
pay it's pro rata share. If this
is refused, the water tax must be
raised another 8 per cent. The
subcommittee laid stress to the
fact that last year the Fedora
water use payment was $270,00(
short of the $1,270,000 amount
consumed.
Attention was called to the past
system under which the Fedora
Government financed the city's
original water supply installation
from 1853-63, and paid in addi-
tional contributions to it's opera.

Of the rate increase the sub.

ContradictS Eearlier Statement

Contradicts Eearlier Statement.
Bolshevik is the leading maga-
zine in the u. S. S. r., dealing
with the problems of theory in
communism.
The Stain statement about the
unlikelihood of war between the
and Communist worlds
seems to contradict his previous,
statement that such a
clash must come. That statement
was made in 1927 by Stain to a
visiting American workers dele
cation in Moscow. Stain told
them:
Thus, in the course of the fur
ther development of the interna-
tional revolution and the interna-
tional reaction, two centers will
emerge on a world Scale-a social
ist center attracting the countries
gravitating toward socialism, and
Ia capitalist center attracting the
countries gravitating toward cap
Iitalism. The struggle between
these two camps will settle the
fate of capitalism and socialism
throughout the world"
Other Quotations Cited.
This Stain statement has often
been repeated in the Soviet press
in recent times. 1t followed the
feminist principle that a bloody
clash between the worlds of cap
Iitalism and communism was one
day inevitable, and that one or the
other must emerge triumphant
from the great struggle.
Last April Stain told a group
of American newspaper editors
and radiomen that he believed q
third world war was no closer
at that time than it was two OF
three years previously. Stalir
also added that he believed peace
full co-existence of capitalism ano
communism was quite possible
under these conditions-a mutual
desire for cooperation. a readi-
ness to fulfill undertaken obliga-
tions. observance of the principle
of equality and on-interference
in internal affairs of other states
On February 16. 1851. Stain

the present time cannot be con-
sidered inevitable" This was &C
