Laborifes Close Ranks
In Planning for Fight
On German Rearming
Socialists Compromise
On Substitute Motion;
Debote Opens Thursday
By The Assoeiaied Press

LONDON. July 29.-Labor Party
members of Parliament closed
ranks today to fight a government
proposal to permit rearmament Of
West Germany.
The motion to approve the
three-power contract with the
Bonn government is slated for de-
bate in the House Of Commons
Thursday
Laborites at a conference today
objected to the motion as being
"inopportune" at this time. They
plan to offer an amendment which
in effect would hold up the Ger
man contract indefinitely.
Compromise Reached.
The Socialist amendment repre-
sents compromise between party
moderates led by former Prime
Minister Attlee and left-wing sup
porters of Aneurin Bevan.
Labor Party members have beer
pushing for a Big -Four confer
ence with Russia before taking
any final steps to arm the Ger
mans.
The Socialist amendment &C
cepted "the aim of inclusion of q
democratic Germany on the basis
of equality in the continental
European community" and the
principle subject to proper safe
guards and conditions of German
armed contribution to the inter-
national system of collective Sc
|curity."
Three Views Prevail.
But it rejected the Churchill
governments present proposal as
"inopportune. particularly at q
time when attempts are still being
made by the Western powers to
discuss the German problem with
the U. S. s. r."
While it is believed in parlia-
|mentary quarters that all factions
of the Labor Party supports the
amendment, there still appeared
to be three distinct views within
the party in German rearmament
One group approves rearming
Germany in due course. Another
would impose many safeguards
La third opposes German rearma-
|ment under any circustances.

Iran Deputies
Scream Attacks
On Americans
Parliament Begins
Debate on Mossodeeh
Program Of Reforms
BY the A..oeiated Pres.

TEHERAN, Iran. July 29.-Bit-
ter attacks on the United States
highlighted a debate today in
which the Iranian parliament
overwhelmingly approved Premier
Mohammed Mossadegh's program
for economic and social reforms
to head OF national bankruptcy.
The seriousness of the anti
American demonstration was
underscored when Deputy Shams
Ghanat-Abadi demanded the
custer of all Americans from the
country. Ghanat-Abadi is the
righthand man of Ayatullah Seyed
KaShani. Trans leading religious
figure and a close supporter of
Mossadegh.
Anti-American feeling has been
rife here since the July 81 riots
which ouSted Premier Ahmed
Qavam, but this was the first such
outburst in parliament.
Says All Must Go.
The demonstration began when
q deputy. interrupting his speech
on the new government program.
shouted:
1--WE don't need the American
military missions. They only bring
us headaches. I demand that they
be kicked out starting tomorrow"
"They must co." shouted an-l
other deputy. "They must go"
Then Ghanat-Abadi leaped tol
his feet, screaming: mot onlyl
them but every American in every
Office must co."
Contracts for the Americana
military missions expire in Octo-l
ber and American officials arel
worried that they will not be
extended If the current wave of
anti-American feeling retains its
strength.
This feeling is based on the
belief-denied by United States
Ambassador 10y Henderson Il
that Americans supported Qavam
against Mossadegh. The belief
arose principally from a visit paid
to Qavam by Mr.. Henderson on|
July 10, two days after the for
mer had become Premier.
Angry at II. S. Judge.
Mr.. Henderson later explained
to newsmen that he had been
called by Qavam and did not go
on his own initiatiye.
Fuel was added to the anti
American flames when it was
learned that an American Judge
on the International Court Of JUS
tice at The Hague voted against
Iran in the Anglo -Iranian oil dis
pute. The Judge, Green H. Hack
worth, and other dissenterS were
outvoted 9-5.
Today's demonstration was
short-lived. however. Debate was
resumed and the program ap-
proved $50. with one abstention.
The program includes plans to
reopen Trans rich oil production
which has dwindled to a trickle
after the long and bitter dispute
with Britain over naturalization
of the billion dollar Anglo-Iranian
Oil Co. properties here.
It also proposes new taxes, new
public works projects to give work
to unemployed and calls for "im-
provement Of economic affairs by
increasing production, creating
work and improving the monetary
and banking laws"

Steel Pours From Mills.
Steel. meanwhile, began pour
ing from mills in substantial vol

shortcuts, consistent with safety
margins, to speed production.
With those indications of a
f1rmer foundation for the Nations
economy, however, came a warm
ing by Defense Production Ad-
ministrator Henry H. Fowler. He
said that it may be two or three
months before manufacturers of
civilian goods get a sufficient flow
OF new steel. He estimated that
the steel strike caused a loss of
20 million tons.
A production official said DELAYS
|of from two to three months also
probably would be encountered
in the cases of between 200 and
300 commercial building projects
for which permits were issued
just before the strike.
The board also announced its
approval of a new wage contract
between Kaiser Aluminium and
Chemical Co. and the CIO Steel
workers Union. This affected
more than 5000 employees in
Kaiser plants throughout the
country.
The big aluminium companies
