Iran s Constitution to Bar Local Power
y Ronald Koven
Wfl$hifl tOfl Pogt POre n Service
March 2 fran s Revolu-
tianary Council has drafted a eonstitu
tion providing a strong American
style president elected by universal
suffrage but excluding the Mud of
federal statehood sought by regional
autonomists such as the rebellious
Kurds
This first description of how lran s
Islamic republic will be organized
emerged from separate interviews
with the two officials considered to be
the closest to Khomeini, There is
every reason to believe that bath U S-
educated figures are members of the
Revolutionary Council, whose mem
bership is still secret
In wide ranging interviews, Radio
Television Director Sadegh Ghotbza
deh and Deputy Prime Minister Ibra
hun Yazth, Khomeini's two principal
aides during his months of exile in
France, said that the draft will be
published before popular elections for
a constituent assexnbly The assembly,
which will vote on the. proposed con
stitution, is expected to be elected
about two months after the March 30
national referendum on forming an ls
lamic republic in Iran
Both men expressed confidence that
Iranians would approve the formation
of the ls1a nie republic by more than
90 pexcent.
The voters will be given the choice
of yes or no to the Islamic republic,
ignoring appeals that they also be al
lowed to vote to restore the monarchy
or to establish a secular republic.
The exact weigbt Moslem religious
leaders would have in tbe government
was not c ear Ghotbzadeh said that
they would have the right to name
one third of the nine to 15 judges of
the Supreme Constitutional Court
The president and the legislature
would also each name a third, he said
The coni t would rule on the constitu
tionality of laws and lower court rul
ings, he said
The bond with Moslem religious
leaders vill make for a “unique” form
of government, said Yazdi, but he

would not elaborate except to reject
the idea a theocracy
As bas done consistently in and
ou e le Ghotbzadeb spoke reas
suriii 1y of the shared democratic val
ues of the West and of Islam. Yasdi
also stressed democracy but took a
more noticea j Islamic line, speaking
of such Mosl *i legal concepts as “the
creation of corruption on earth ”
Such nuances between the two lea&
ers seem to indicate that disagree
xnents still exist at least an the form
if not the substance of society under
the Islamic republic.
“Islam has . its own conception Is
lam is an ideology of its own,” Ghot
bzadeh said. He laughingly dismissed
as impractical such ideas as soldiers
electing their own officers
The Islamic movement is deter
mined, he stressed, to better the lot of
the poor. He said he understood that
this emphasis had aroused middle
class fears because it has a radical
sound. He insisted, however, that the
Islamic movement is not out to pre
vent comfortable existences, but sim
ply intends to raise the mass of the
people up to a comparable middle-
class level. Nevertheless, “unchecked
profits” and “exti 1 eme luxury” can no
longer be tolerated, he said.
The revolution was in part against
such abuses and also against what the
great mass of Iramans consider to be
loose morals and false values, he said
There is no reason, be said for sec
ularized people to feel uncomfortable
in the new Iran as long as they re
speot sensitivities of the bulk of the
population. Female television an-
nouncers will not be allowed to wear
as much makeup as before, and “they
won't have the decolletage,” but they
will not have to wear veils or scarves
to hide their hair, he said.
This was a modification of an ear-
her stand he took that they would
have to wear scarves, if not full-length
veils.
An unsettled point seems to be the
future of the Re olutionary Council.
The .council numbers more than 10
and fewer than 20 and the majority
are not clerics, Gliotbzadeh said, He
did not d y a suggestion that he is
a meiuber.
What happens to the coi nciI will
probably determine the real powers of
the elected government, As Ghotbza-
deb explained, the provisional govern
meat headed by Bazargan under the
control of the council, which phys b h
a legislative role by is ig ts truc
tions to Bazargan and an executive role
by judging and correcting h the
directives are carried ouL
The Bazargan government Is to stay
In place until the first constitutional
government is established, Ghotbza-
deb said He said it is doubthil Bazar-
gail, 71, would run for president be-
cause he is “tfred.” Ghotbzadeh, 41,
hinted broadly last week that he
might be interested in running for
president, if it would be the key exec-
utive position. Today he spoke wist
fully of taking a long vacation.
Ghotbzadeh said that all parties
would be free to r n ndidates and
that he thought that, at the very least
there would be a Marxist fielded
against the Islamic revolutionary
movement's choice
Ghotbzadeh depiefted Khomeini as
being determined to play less of a di
rest political role and to become once
again more ef a symbolic moral guide.
He said Khomeini had been forced to
intervene recently because there wa
no one else who could enforce major
orientatisns like halting summary ex-
ecutions.
Both Yandi and G iotbzadeh were
adamant that there would be no au-
tonomy statute for Kurdistan. There
is no way for it or other regions to be
specially represented in the legisla-
ture, which is to have a single house,
they said Ghotbzadeh said that it
might be possible to amend the text,
after it is published, to provide for a
regional house But Yazdi said he
could not cenceive of anything resem
bling a federal system.
They both said that the centraL gov-

ernment would move to meet the le-
gitimate grievances of Kurdista and
other ethnic regions by financing crc
ation of bilingual schools, hospital
roads and other facilities and by ap-
pointing local people in top police and
provincial administration jobs, mclud
lug governors general, the chief pro-
vincial representatives of Iran
While Ghotbzadeh said the Kurds
and other groups would “get nothing
spectacular,” he said the Khomeini
movement is determined to decentral
ize and reduce Tehran's role fostered
by the shah, as a center that sucked
the region's vitality.
Religious minorities would continue
to be represented in the legislature,
he said, The present tradition of three
deputies for the meman and Assy-
nan Christians, one f the Jews Wand
one for the Zoroastrians would be co-
dified, he said, Both officials there
would be no representation for the
Babais, the most hated sect in the
country. They both insisted that it is
not so much a religion as a political
group.
Iranian Officials Annoiuzce
Tritce in, KurdIsh Conflict
Las Angeles Timee
SAN DAJ, Iran, March 22 An
uneasy truce broken by sporadic
gunfire—settled over this capital of
Iranian Kurdiotan today. Embattled
Iranian army troops remained in de-
fensive positions in their garrison
post while Kurdish insurgents man-
ned rifles behind sandbags.
A government delegation, headed
by Ayatallah Mohmoud Taleghani,
met with Kurdish groups here in an
effort to dampen the anger of Kurd-
ish nationalists and to forge a cease-
fire.
Interior Minister Sagerhadge Sa-
vadi said bath sides agreed to a cease-
fire and that Kurds held prisoner in
the army post would be released.
Taleghani said even though the
Kurds were entitled to their own eul-
tore and language “you are Iranian.”
