Withdrawal of Reds From Iran Expected To Solve U. N. Case By th* Associated Press NEW YORK, May 4.—Spokesmen lor several delegations to the United Nations Security Council expressed belief today that the council would be in a position to drop the contro versial Iranian case when it comes up again next week. They said private reports received by their governments confirmed press dispatches from Teheran that the withdrawal of Soviet troops from Iran would be completed or almost completed by the May 6 deadline “It looks very much as though the council would be in a position to drop the case,” one spokesman said Under a resolution adopted by the council April 4. the delegates took note of a Russian agreement to have all Soviet troops out of Iran by May 6 and agreed to leave the case pend ing unitl that date with the under standing that Russia and Iran could be asked to report on the situation after the deadline passed. /seiegaies ttenerally Satisfied. The delegates were reported to be, generally satisfied with the way the Russians have carried out their pledge and were represented as not being inclined to insist on keeping the case open even if the withdrawal were not entirely completed. Secretary-General Trygve Lie has been asked to call the council back into session Tuesday to take up the case, but Mr. Lie’s office reported that no decision had yet been made. Some delegations were understood to feel it might be desirable to delay the meeting for two or three days to give the Council and various gov ernments time to receive reports on the situation as of midnight Mon day. Soviet Delegate Andrei A. Gromyko still has not indicated whether'he would stand by his recent state ment that he would not take part in any new discussions of the Iranian case. Spanish Question Left. Solution of the Iranian case would leave only the Spanish question on the Council's agenda. A subcom mittee Is now investigating Polish charges that the Franco regime is a threat to world peace and will report back to the Council by May 31. Meanwhile, there was increasing evidence that the Council might be called on to take up the explosive Palestine question. Although none of the delegates has yet received any instructions to take the intia-' tive in the case, Arab League spokes men, both in Washington and Cairo, indicated submission of the ques tion to the council was being con sidered. The spokesman in Cairo said Pal estine reports indicated Arab groups planned to send a delegate to Mos- ! cow to ask the Soviet government to submit the case to the United Nations. The Arab office in Washington said the question was under con sideration and that the problem might be brought before the Coun cil in the near future. Nearly All Reds Reported To Have Left Azerbaijan TEHERAN, May 4 <7P).—Army and police officials said today that all of Iran had been evacuated by the Russians, but Prince Mozaffar Fi- ’ rouz, director of propaganda, de scribed the Soviet exodus from con- j tentious Azerbaijan Province as "al most” complete. An Iranian general staff officer de clared "all Iran has been evacuated by the Red Army” and gendarmerie officials made similar statements. Firouz said “Azerbaijan is almost completely evacuated,” and added he l\\\\\\ WUIWIWIMWMI saw no reason why correspondents should not visit the province after Monday—the deadline set in the Soviet-Iranian agreement for the complete removal of Russian troops from the country. Russian officials have refused permission to foreign correspondents to enter the province. The propaganda director also said no agreement had been reached "as yet” between Premier Jafar Pishe vari of the self-proclaimed autono mous Azerbaijan government, but that “negotiations were continuing" with the central government on pro posals for reuniting Azerbaijan with the central administration.
