Iran (AP) British Foreign Secretary Michael Stewart flew home today p.s a row over Iranian oil (rewed up between British and American interests. Iran is claiming British companies are ready to boost the production of their oil fields in Iran but they have been blocked by an American veto.

A spokesmen for the government's Iranian Oil Co. charged that Standard Oil of New Jersey the Iricon Group, which links five smaller American companies, had successfully opposed Iranian demands for a 17 ftr cent increase for 1969-70. Between them, they have a 12 per cent interest in the interna flonal consortium which works most of Iran's oil fields. IMPORTANT STATE -It compares with a 40 per cent Interest held by British Petroleum, of which the British government is the major shareholder, atid a 14 per cent interest by Royal Dutch Shell, in which Britain also has an important Make. Stewart, who has been on a five-day visit to Iran, told a news conference Thursday that the oil question was among subjects he discussed with the shah, who is the nation's leader.

and Iranian government "Our views are not always the same as the consortium or other members of the consortium." he reported. While conceding there was a world surplus of oil at this time. Funeral service be conducted Saturday at 10:30 a.m., at Fentress Mortuary. Mrs. Robert R.

But now China's official news agency has released the text of a statement of claims, which says that the Russians illegally occupy, as the result of unjust treaties of Cjarist days, a total of about a i i square miles of Chinese territory.

That is more than three times the area of France. CLAIMS The statement goes well be yond simple territorial claims. Since 1960. Peking said, Moscow has sent frontier troops into Chinese territory to build military installations, assault and kidnap inhabitants and carry out subversive activities. In 1962, the statement added.

Moscow incited and coerced more than 60.000 citizens of Chi na in the Hi and Tacheng areas of Sinkiang to go to the Soviet Union, refusing to send them back. Sinkiang is the site of Chi na's nuclear weapons installations. Hi is the scene of Soviet Chinese fighting in recent years, "Since 1964" the statement! continued, "the Soviet government has sent large reinforcements to the Sino Soviet border, stepped up its violation of the status quo of the boundary, carried out armed provocations and created incidents of bloodshed. PROVOCATIONS "From Oct. 15, 1964, to March 15 this year, the Soviet side provoked as many as 4,189 incidents, times the number of those it provoked from 1960 to Ex-Fayetfeville Priest, Father Kitted In Wreck Area News In Brief MEMORIAL SERVICES Memorial Services I held at 'I p.m.

On the day of the last citation, April 10, Thompson said, "The car was in a garage in San Bernardino and the motor was being overhauled in a shop in Pasadena." Stockton police unearthed an explanation: The car cited had Oregon license plates with the same number as Mrs. Thompson's California plates. "We all make mistakes, I guess," said Capt. Frank Gregory. He said the fourth ticket also would be forgotten.

1964 Soviet troops intruded into Chinese territory, indulging in murder and arson, killing barehanded Chinese fisherman and peasants by beating and running armored cars over them or even throwing them alive into the river." The Oct. 15. 1964 date is significant. It was the day of the first Chinese atomic explosion, and also the time of Nikita Khrushchev's overthrow by the present Soviet chiefs. There is a double implication: present rulers are, that from Chinese viewpoint, worse than Khrushchev ever was.

and that the Russians have designs on the Chinese nuclear installations. Moscow has been peppering the Chinese with inflammatory propaganda against the rule of Map Tse tung, and in the international arena, has been trying to persuade Communists around the world that Mao is a great danger to then- movement and to world Communist revolution. CLAIMS SPELLED OUT The Chinese government statement spelled out the territorial claims in detail, dating them back to a century ago and claiming that in the last part of the 19th century the Russians annexed Chinese areas more than a dozen times the size of Czechoslovakia. That Czechoslovakia was singled out for this comparison was hardly accidental. Chinese propaganda a been heavily blasting the Soviet doctrine of "limited sovereignty" under which Moscow excuses its invasion of Czechoslovak territory to smother a reform movement.

In Peking's view, that Soviet action spelled threats to many other nations excluding China itself. The Soviet Union, the statement said, "regards heroic Albania as a thorn in its flesh. It menaces Romania and Yugoslavia Its aggressive designs are even more ambitious, and its claws have stretched out even farther than those of Czarist Russia." The statement ends with defiant challenges. It quotes Mao as saying that if anybody wants war. the Chinese "can fight to the finish." It announces publication of a Soviet statement on the border question and dares the Russians to publish Peking's side of the quarrel.

"Please do so if you do not have a guilty conscience and are not cowardly and if you do not want to conceal it from the Soviet people," the statement concludes.

FBI Arrests Gang Wanted For Security Thefts NEW YORK (AP) Federal authorities say they have broken up a gang wanted in the theft of $4 million worth of securities. Four men were arrested, including one who officials said was carrying $1 million worth of stolen stock certificates at the time. U.S. Atty.

Now Notre Dame Will Continue ROTC By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS A Notre Dame policy-making committee has voted to continue the school's ROTC program while a committee at Harvard has recommended an end to the program by 1971.

Saying it is not possible to make ROTC an extracurricular activity, the Harvard committee recommended to the university's undergraduate faculty Thursday that it adopt resolu- on trying to make lifs easier and safer for the 110,000 men who do have to go into the mines, each day.

Yablonski, a gravel-voiced man who went into the pits at age 15.
