"We have discussed the hostages at length in two closed sessions," Rafsanjani said. "But the whole world should know that America and its friends and associates are reponsible about the war and provocations in the region. the very moment when we were due to discuss the special commission's report on the hostages, the defenseless people of Dizful were smothered in blood and dust by ground-to-ground missiles (fired by attacking Iraqis), causing fury among the Iranian people and Majlis," Rafsanjani said. "America has received many blows and will not calm down easily, and its provocations against this nation will always continue," he said.

(Staff photo) DALLAS (UPI) Richard Allen, Ronald Reagan's chief foreign policy adviser, quit the Reagan campaign today amid accusations he used his previous position in the Nixon administration for personal gain.

The move came despite a statement from Reagan chief of staff Ed Meese that he had investigated the accusations and found "any allegation or implication of improper conduct is untrue." "Mr. Allen said today that he has withdrawn for the remaining days of the campaign to remove this matter as a possible issue in the campaign," Meese said in a statement. "Mr. Allen continues to have the full confidence of Ronald Reagan and the campaign organization." Reagan himself told reporters earlier today he was awaiting a 'report from Meese on the accusations involving Allen in the Wall Street Journal. The paper said Allen used his White House connections to gain lucrative consulting contracts Reagan had predicted the accusations would be found to be "much ado about nothing."

The new councilmen will be working with a 1981 county budget of $3,128,210 that was cut nearly $800,000 in budget hearings in September because of state requirements. A major concern has been possible re- placement of money provided through fedr eral revenue sharing trust funds, if those funds should be cut off. A main issue expected to be held over for county councilmen in the new four-year terms' will be programs to provide equal health insurance and longevity benefits to all county employees.

While longevity had been proposed for county employees across-the-board for next year, the benefit later was dropped from the budget during the September hearings because of the financial cutback, and is expected to be brought up again this coming year. Other ongoing projects expected to be held over from this year include the construction of a new county office building and possible renovation of the county 'courthouse for additional court space.
