Kurds Flee Iraq to Escape Red Rule Across Frontiers
Thousands of Kurdish tribesmen have fled Iraq’s northwest frontier into Iran and Turkey to avoid pro Communist rule. Amir Aly Ashegara says clashes near the border left 13 Barzani tribesmen dead, while Raschid’s people fled with limited ammunition. He reports 1,000 refugee families in tent settlements and predicts Soviet influence will not revive Kurdish uprising.

Dollar fears grow as gold leaves U S reserves
Europeans discuss the dollar’s potential decline amid sizable gold outflows from the United States. In the last month alone about 2.34 billion dollars in gold were bought by other nations while U S reserves hover near a 13 year low of 20 billion. The shift comes as U S exports sag and imports rise, with funds moving abroad for factories, stocks, and vacations. Vermont remains inland. Syria’s governance is via a 138 member male elected legislature.
