Blamed for social, economic problems
Former Polish officials to go on trial
United Press International
WARSAW, Poland — Former
Polish officials who have been
blamed for the nation’s lingering
social and economic crisis will go
on trial soon, a high-ranking Com
munist Party member told a meet
ing of the party Central Commit
tee Thursday.
At the same time. Interior
Minister Gen. Czeslaw Kiszczak
warned that Poland was witnes
sing a sharp, merciless political
struggle in which adversaries
were trying to weaken and take
control of the country.
The warning came as Solidarity
threatened a nationwide news
paper, radio and television strike
for Oct. 1 and Moscow accused the
independent labor federation of
seeking to seize power in order to
restore capitalism.

Barcikowski, in a speech reported
by the official news agency PAP,
said prosecutors had been car
rying out careful investigations
and “those responsible for the cri
sis will go on trial soon.”
The text of Barcikowski’s
speech was not immediately avail
able, and the summary mentioned
no names. However, legal action
was begun during the summer
against ousted Prime Minister
Piotr Jaroszewicz and other for
mer officials who served during
the 10-year regime of party chief
Edward Gierek.
PAP said Barcikowski, also de
clared a necessity for “effective
counteractions against the ex
tremist wings in Solidarity.”
In a speech delivered during
the first session of the Central
committee meeting Wednesday,
party official Edward Skrzypczyk
told the assembly that govern
ment plans for economic reform
were a gamble that will bring un
employment and bankrupt plants
across the country.
Skrzpczyk called government’s
plans for economic reform next
year a “poker game,” and warned,
“in the first stage of economic re
form there will be unemploy
ment, a mess in material supplies
and bankruptcy of the industrial
plants.”
In Moscow, a leading Soviet
newspaper accused Solidarity of
undermining the socialist system
in Poland with strikes and said it
was seeking to “bring down the
state system” to restore capitalism
in the Warsaw Pact nation.
The story, published by the
Soviet labor union newspaper
Trud, was distributed early Thurs
day by the Tass news agency, indi
cating it had the support of the
Soviet leadership.
Trud said Solidarity exposed its
“counter-revolutionary, anti
socialist character” in a charter of
proposed new rules to be adopted
at the 10-million member labor
federation’s first national conven
tion this weekend.
“As chief vehicle for blackmail
ing and pressuring the party and
state organs, the authors of the
document have chosen strikes
which, as is shown by practice,
have disorganized the economy
and brought the nation ... to a cri
tical point,” Trud said.
“Using the policy of strikes, the
anti-socialist elements from Soli-
'darity are aiming at undermining
the socialist foundation and, in the
final analysis, at restoring capital
ism in Poland,”
The Soviet attack came as S
clarity’s national coordina
commission said it would c

television strike Oct.

Solidarity also threatened
ban reporters of state televi
and radio from their national!
vention beginning in Cdi
Saturday unless the goverm

coverage of the three-day com
tion.

Iranian television said 55 per
sons had been executed in the
aftermath of the assassinations of
two high Iranian officials last
weekend. It brought to 659 the
number of executions of political
dissidents since the ouster of Pres
ident Abolhassan-Bani-Sadr in
June.
Tehran Radio monitored in
Ankara said three other dissidents
were arrested in the shootout
— the first major outbreak of fight
ing in Tehran since President
Mohammed Ali Rajai and Prime
Minister Mohammed Javad Baho-
nar were killed in a bomb blast
Sunday.
Revolutionary guards killed
seven “hypocrites,” the official
term for Mojahideen Khala guer
rillas, in a shootout that began in a
south Tehran street Wednesday
night and ended early Thursday,
Tehran Radio said.
The three arrested included “a
woman and a girl.” They were
picked up when the guards cap
tured a house being used as a mo
jahideen base, the radio said. It
said the guards discovered maps of
the prime minister’s office, where
Rajai and Bahonar were assas
sinated.
The Iranian parliament
Wednesday gave the cabinet of
new Prime Minister Ayatollah
Mohammed Reza Mahdavi-Kani a
quick vote of confidence with 170
voting in favor and only 8 either
opposing or abstaining.
In Paris, a spokesman for the
Mojahideen guerrillas battling the
Islamic regime confirmed that a
top Palestine Liberation Organi
zation official met with Mojahi
deen leader Massoud Rajavi. The
PLO denied Tuesday that any
such meeting took place.
Reports of contacts between the
PLO, which aided Ayatollah
Ruhollah Khomeini’s rise to pow
er in 1979, and Khomeini’s foes
followed recent allegations that
Israel had supplied Tehran with
weapons needed in the war with
Iraq. Iran has denied getting any
arms from Israel.
Mahdavi-Kani, in a statement
issued after he presented the
cabinet today, said foreign hands
were involved in the assassina
tions of Rajai and Bahonar. He did
not elaborate on his charge. He
also denied reports that the kill
ings were part of an internal power
struggle between Islamic clergy
officials.
Mahdavi-Kani, who as head of
the interior ministry showed little
patience with dissent, said soon
after the parliament approved his
selection as the new prime minis
ter that “fifth columnists” were
trying to undermine the Islamic
regime.
“Rumors have been spread
accusing some (Islamic regime) fi
gures of involvement in thisi
dent,” the prime ministers
“The enemy is trying to destra
in various ways—by assassins
and shaking public confideoci
