Six seek Iran’s weak presidency
United Press International
Campaigning is in full sway for
Iran’s first presidential election, but
the winner is expected to be a
ceremonial second banana at best.
The seat of power is not in the
capital of Tehran, but in the Moslem
holy city of Qom, 80 miles to the
south.
Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini
runs the show in Iran and doubtless
will continue to do so, president or
no. Qom is his home and headquar
ters, and he rarely ventures away.
The final authority to deal with
any of Iran’s burgeoning problems
— including the fete of 50 American
hostages who Sunday begin their
12th week in captivity at the oc
cupied U.S. Embassy — rests with
the 79-year-old religious leader
alone.
Khomeini’s power is every bit as
potent as that of the man he re
placed, Shah Mohammed Reza
Pahlavi, who fled the country one
year ago.
All that has not deterred would-
be office seekers. About the only
qualifications a candidate needs are
that he be Iranian and Moslem.
At one point, the number of regis
tered candidates was about 20 —
prompting, in conspiracy-minded
Iran, charges that the deluge of
presidential aspirants was a CIA plot
to undermine the whole political
process.
Most of the candidates decided —
or were prevailed upon — to with
draw, and by the time the balloting
gets underway Jan. 25 there will be
only about six left.
The country is awash in posters
plastered in almost every available
spot — across shop windows, on
buses and cars, over the faces of
road signs with resulting automotive
confusion.
The leading candidate is Finance
Minister Abol Hassan Bani-Sadr,
and his No. 1 challenger appears to
be Foreign Minister Sadegh
Ghotbzadeh.
Their posters are rapidly being
slapped atop those of candidates
who have fallen by the wayside.
Both are relative moderates in the
current Iranian scheme of things.
and both have seized uponi
Soviet invasion of Afghanist®]
and what they perceive as a
ing threat to Iran — as tlie
campaign issue.
The fear of a possible Soviet!
sion of their own land is aveiyi
thing to Iranians, who believt
Russians at long last are
their dream of access to warm-
ports on the Indian Ocean.
To get there, they have

WASHINGTON — Two former
State Department aides who spent a
decade in Afghanistan say the
Soviets can hold the country militar
ily, but it will take at least a genera
tion to win the minds and hearts of
the people.
Ex-diplomats James Cudney and
Cleo Shook offered these views dur
ing interviews:
—The Kremlin moved forces into
Afghanistan when it did because of
fear that unrest among the Azer
baijanis and Kurds would spill over
into the Soviet Union.
—The Afghans, like other Middle
Asian peoples, are fiercely proud
and independent and will resist the
Soviets until a new, indoctrinated
generation takes their place.
—Between 15,000 and 20,000 Af
ghans have been killed or impris
oned in Marxist attempts to wipe
out opposition.
—There are 400,000 to 500,000
Afghan refugees, many of whom
have purposely gone into Pakistan
to arm themselves so they can go
back and fight as guerrillas.
Cudney and Shock went to Af
ghanistan in 1953 to start the
government-sponsored Afghan In
stitute of Technology. Both were

LONDON — Britain’s former spy
chief and his one-time chief inter
rogator Sunday broke their veil of
silence to defend the memory of a
high-ranking agent suspected of
being a Soviet spy.
The name of Guy Liddell, a
former deputy-director of MI-5, the
internal security service, has been

linked to the Burgess-Maclean-
Blunt spy clique for many years.
Sir Dick White, successively head
of MI-5 and the Secret Intelligence
Service between 1953-1969, told
the Sunday Times newspaper, how
ever, that acquasations against Lid
dell were “grotesque.”
Suspicions that Liddell was a
Soviet “mole” were revived recently
by Andrew Boyle, whose book “The
Climate of Treason led to the pub
lic unmasking of world-renowned
art historian Anthony Blunt as a
wartime Soviet agent.
Boyle has said that a friend of Guy
Burgess told him Liddell belonged
to the same homosexual clique as
Blunt and Burgess and, like them,
was a Russian agent.
Liddell was retired suddenly in
1953 during inquiries into the
Burgess spy clique. He died in
1958.
The Sunday Times said then-
Prime Minister Harold Wilson was

White told the Sunday Time!
Liddell belonged to an intern
patriotic family and said ‘Toll

sibly lieen a way of deflectin'
cusations against others.
Famed interrogator Willi
Skardon, whose successes inch

Fuchs, also defended Liddells
tegrity.
“Any suggestion that hem
traitor is preposterous,” Stare
told the Sunday Times. 'Then
