fication Of those plans.
The % cabinet selections an
nounced today by the new gov
ernment chief did not include
any supporters of Gen. De

leaders of the Popular Repub-
lican (MRP) Party was author
of the European coal-steel

establish a six-nation European
army including West German
troops.
Bonn Deeply Concerned.
In the West German capital
of Bonn. first reaction to the
dropping of Mr.. Schuman was
one of deep concern for the fate
of future France-German CO.

changes. Mr.. Bidault also is a
member of the MRP and served
for a time as Premier during Mr..
Schuman's long tenure at the
Foreign Ministry.

Mossadegh Requests
Extension Of Power
BY the A.soeioted Press

TEHERAN, Iran, Jan. g.
Premier Mohammed Mossadegh
asked Parliament today to ex-
tend for a full year his extraor-
dinary powers to govern by de-
cree, causing one leading deputy
to walk out after announcing his
resignation.
The premier's request was con-
tanned in a bill sent to the
Nails (the lower house), which
last August IL voted Premier
Mossadegh the right to exercise
extraordinary powers for a six
month period ending February 8.
The powers give the premier a
free hand in economic. financial
and military matters and in
nearly all aspects of government
administration without prior ap-
proval from the Nails.
Presentation Of Premier Mos
sadegh's bill today momentarily
stunned the deputies. The first
to recover was HuSsein Maxi, q
leading supporter of the govern
ment'S oil naturalization policy.
