Iranian Oil Workers
Will Return To Fields
TEHRAN, Iran, April 16 (JP) —Brig. Gen. Azizollah Kamal, mili
tary governor of Iran’s southern oil fields, said striking
agreed today to return to work at the big refinery city of Abadan.
They had been the spearhead of widespread strikes and rioting
which last week took the lives of three Britons and eight Iranians.
Kama] said some of the 800 apprentices already were returning
to the shops, ending their month
old strike against the British
controlled Anglo-Iranian oil com
pany.
Abadan, scene of the world’s
largest oil refineries, was calm as
fresh tanks and troops arrived
to reinforce those already holding
the city of 130,000 under strict
curfew.
(In London, Iranian Ambassa
dor Ali Soheily issued a tart
statement accusing Britain and
the United States of meddling in
his country’s affairs. Soheily, who
said he spoke with the approval
of his government, assured Brit
ain that Iran has no intention
of giving her oil to any country
or of depriving Britain of its use.
However, he criticized Anglo-
American talks in Washington on
the Iranian oil crisis as inter
ference in Iran’s affairs.
(In Washington British and
American officials said they
planned to continue the talks.)
There are 25 American engin
eers at Abadan installing a giant
new - cracking plant to produce
high octane gasoline. Five of
them have asked that they be
permitted to leave before their
scheduled time next month. One
engineer and his wife left yes
twday.
The Senate, reaffirming its ap
proval of Premier Hussein Ala’s
policies in handling the crisis
over, this country’s vast • oil
wealth, today gave the premier
a unanimous vote of confidence.

Gangster Funerals
Conservative Now
. NEW YORK, April 16 —
Charles Fischetti, gangster heir
of A 1 Capone, went to his grave
today.
But his funeral was not the
gaudy, expensive affair of the
prohibition underworld pattern,
for these are the Kefauver ’so’s
and not the roaring ’2o’s. _
Most of gangland’s bigshots
:tayed away. The heat has been
on them for njionths because of
the Senate Kefauver Crime com
mittee hearings.
The committee named Fischetti
one of the top crime syndidate
leaders in the nation and sought
him for weeks as a witness. He
finally surrendered April 3 b u t
died a week later without testify
ing.
Sixty-five limousines were ear
marked for Fischetti’s funeral pro
cession, but only 27 were used.
The others weren’t rieeded.
