ATTACKS US FOR IMPERIALISTIC DESIGNS IN IRAN
US imperialism, which has become more frenzied and rabid after its repeated
failures to establish control over Iran, is engaging in insane conspiracy and
intrigue In the past weeks .the wicked policy of US officials toward. Iranian
tribes reached the limits of ignominy and disgrace, as exemplified by the fol-
lowing events; Douglas's pooher's and Gagarin's contacts with tribal chiefs
and their attempts to arm the tribes, the arrival of ships carrying weapons for
distribution among the Fars tribes, the training of tribesmen for partisan war-
fare, the dispatching of jeeps, heavy machine guns, and motor transport equip-
ment, and instigation Of tribal chiefs to rebel. The US is interfering more and
more openly in Iranian internal affairs.
The connection between their plans to arm the tribes And their insistence
that Rsamara's government hasten administrative decentralization is obvious. US
imperialism intends to gear Iran's administrative decentralization plan to its
own military plans, which are based on the formation of individual armed tribal
units throughout Iran.
US adventurous and warlike aims conceal the price Iran must pay for dismem-
berment -- the end of peace and security.
It is now apparent that US imperialists require administrative decentraliza-
tion In Iran to execute their'sinister military plans.
The manifestos, signed by chiefs of armed tribes, which were recently issued
in southern Iran at the orders of imperialist America, revealed a new course in
US policy toward Iran. These manifestos contained violent attacks. on the court
and the Shah, and demands for revision of the Fundamental Law, for granting Of
independence to tribes, and for implementation of the administrative decentraliza-
tion plan.
These manifestos show that, although the Shah is abject and servile to his
American masters, US policy is anti-Shah and the Americans are supporting anti.-
Shah _elements. These manifestosAlso reveal the contrast between the policy of
Razmarass government and that of he Shan. .

The US imperialistic policy in arming the tribes and 5upporting7 adminis-
trative decentralization has met strong opposition. Golshayan, Governor of Fars
Province, in a recent private report to the government, expressed the opinion
that formationPof-provincial councils ga foreseen in the administrative decen-
tralization biill under present conditions, i.e., while the tribes are armed to
the teeth, is a dangerous step which would result in giving complete power to the
tribes and the disappearance of the power of the central government.
American imperialism has encountered innumerable difficulties and. Obstacles
in the form of British imperialismoinich controls the court and the majority of
the meMbers of the upper and lower houses, the various departments, influential
persons, and the army.
Furthermore, Iranians themselves are exhibiting opposition :to the US im-
perialistic policy. US officials are obviously terrified; they have been obliged
to retreat.
The Iranian people, who are continuing to fight imperialism heroically and
with utmost intensity, are assured of victory in their struggle with the dreadful
colonizing demon.
