Snag Reported Hit in Iran Negotiations
Tehran July 24 AP Negotiations between President Truman's envoy W Averell Harriman and Iranian officials showed a snag over oil nationalization terms. Both sides, after 10 hours of talks with Premier Mosaddegh, remained far from a formal restart basis. Proposals differed on ownership and distribution, with Iranians seeking a nationalized company to manage production and pricing while Britain favored a market framework. Britain said new break in deadlock proposals were not wholly discouraging. Harriman felt unable to accept the Iranian plan yesterday.

Get Acheson Showdown Set
Washington July 24 AP House critics of the State Department get a chance this week to try to remove Secretary Acheson from the payroll as amendments to the annual money bill are considered. An amendment drafted by Rep Phillips would bar department funds from paying salaries of officials connected with businesses representing foreign governments. Acheson linked to a Polish government client, Dulles named as potential affected, and House leaders predicted a close vote despite confidence. The Phillips plan described as a blunderbuss could impact other top officials and ambassadors. The notice ends with a classifieds line promoting Help Wanted ads through Press-Telegraf.
