ddy and ordered a big roundup of
Communists following rioting in
which between four and 16 persons
were killed and more than loO in

Leftists following last night’s riot
ing, which started with a Commun
is! demonstration protesting the ar
rival of President Truman's repre
sentative, W. Averell Harriman, for
talks with Mossadegh on the on
nationalization crisis.
Reports varied on the number o
casualties in last nignt’s fightine

Communist-style “martyr funerals.
The police announced 62 of then
men had been wounded. A polict
source estimated 96 civilians also

violence. He and his wife were stay
ing at a palace 12 miles up in the
mountains.
Tension Growing
The riot in Parliament Square at
dusk last night, which was broken
up by police rifle fire and Army
tanks, gave violent impetus to the
tension between the Communist Tu
deh and Mossadegh’s Nationalists
which has existed since the nation
alization law was passed in May.
The Mossadegh government has
been standing firm on its program
to get the Anglo-Iranian Oil Co
