With thousands of well-wishers gathered outside the presidential ace that once served as the British colonial vice-regal palace. President Neelam Sanjiva Reddy swore the 62- year-old prime minister into the office. Fourteen ministers — seven of them members of her cabinet during 20 months of oppressive emergency rule that led to her defeat in 1977 — also took the oath of office in Ashoka Hall, the viceroy’s glittering bal lroom in the days of the British Raj. Surrounded by colorful Moghul and Hindu murals and mirrors, Gan dhi smiled for press photographers after Reddy swore in the ministers who will help her deliver India from the economic and social chaos of a six-month political crisis. She will handle the strategic ministries of petroleum and chemic als, industry, defense and steel and mines herself, an office spokesman announced. Observers said the prime minister is likely to keep those key posts open until the current eco nomic crisis with a rate of inflation at 22 percent has eased. Known for tilting toward Moscow in her previous 11 years of rule, Gan dhi has tried to walk a tightrope — describing both Soviet and U.S. in fluence in Afghanistan as "interfer ence,” and said that their competi tion for control over Afghan affairs could lead to “an explosion. United Press International TEHRAN, Iran — Iran Monday reacted to the abortive U.N. Secur ity Council resolution seeking inter national sanctions against the Islamic republic by warning America’s allies not to take retaliatory measures against it. Foreign Minister Sadegh Ghotb- zadeh in a brief statement said sup port of the American proposals “may blur our relations with the respective governments,” but he did not name any of the countries which voted for the American-initiated resolution calling for the sanctions. Ghotbzadeh, currently visiting southern Iran to gather support for his campaign for election as Iran’s first president Jan. 25, did not refer to the Soviet veto that killed the U.S. resolution after it had passes 10-2 late Sunday. East Germany joined the Soviet Union in negative votes. Britain, France, Norway, Portug al, the Philippines, Jamaica, Tunisia, Niger and Zambia voted with the United States in favor of the resolu tion. Britain and France have pre revolution ties with the Iranian pub lic and private sectors. Iran recently cut off oil supplies to the Philippines in retaliation for what it called gov ernment atrocities directed at Mos lems in that East Asian country. Iran’s relations with Norway, Por tugal, Jamaica, Tunisia, Niger and Zambia have been limited to low- volume trade. The minister’s statement, carried by the official Pars news agency, said: “As we have informed the United Nations authorities at 2 a.m. local time this morning (Monday), the verdict of the Security Council and any organs of the United Nations which are not in line with the justi fied demands of the Iranian people, is not accepted by us and is consi dered null and void. “Now that the United States’ stub born and baseless attempts have failed, we are calling on other gov ernments not to get involved in the U.S. political games and avoid any measure which may blur our rela tions with the respective govern ments.” In remarks made at a news confer ence early Monday, Ghotbzadeh still ruled out the release of American hostages before Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi’s extradition. ^iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimH 1 The Texas Grubstake | The finest steaks broiled on a mesquite wood Bar-B-Q Pit. 1 Bring This Coupon 1 00 off any Steak T ues.-Wed.-Thurs.
