Khomeini, in a speech broadcast by Tehran radio and clearly aimed at Iraq's Shiites, urged Iraqis to "rise up and attack the enemies of Islam." In Washington, White House spokesman Larry Speakes said the United Slates would remain neutral in the renewed Iran- Iraq war. U.S. Senate Majority rival Shiite sect in Iran, charged that the Iranian attack was actually aimed at diverting attention from Israel's actions in Lebanon.

It pointed out that Israel said it sent military supplies to the Tehran government last year. Iran denies this Israeli connection. In announcing the invasion late Tuesday, the Iranians said without further explanation that the anti-Iraqi offensive would actually lead to the "liberation of Jerusalem from the Israelis. The war began in September 1980 hen the Ira qi army invaded Iran along a 300-mile front to press Iraq's claim over disputed border territory, including all of the Shatt al-Arab, the waterway that forms the southern end of the border. Two weeks ago, Hussein announced that Iraqi suffered major defeats, had withdrawn from Iranian territory.

But the Khomeini regime refused to accept an Iraqi-declared cease-fire in the war, and on Tuesday it rejected a U.N. Security Council resolution proposing an observer force to oversee a truce. Leader Howard H. Baker said the prospect of Shiite rule in Iraq, whose population is about half Shiite, "would have a distinctly unsettling impact in the region." In Cairo, the Egyptian government, which has provided military supplies to Iraq for the border war, expressed "deep concern" about the Iranian invasion but said nothing about stepped-up assistance.

The Iraqis reportedly fought back with air raids on Kharg Island, Iran's vital Persian Gulf oil-shipment center, and on three western Iranian cities, where hundreds of casualties were reported. Iranian warplanes were said to have attacked Iraqi towns as well. The Iranians claimed to have punched 12 miles into Iraq in heavy fighting. But Iraq's communiques indicated its forces, on the counterattack, halted the Iranians after a six-mile advance near Basra, at the head of the Persian Gulf in Iraq's southeastern corner. The claims of the two sides could not be independently verified since no reporters were allowed in the war zone.

The new explosion of fighting in the 22-month-old border war between two of the Middle East's oldest enemies heightened tensions in a region already shaken by the Israeli invasion of Lebanon. Iran's state-run Tehran radio declared the invasion force would topple the "Infidel" Iraqi government of President Saddam Hussein.

The Jpfferwwi Parish rnr. BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) The government of Lebanon, struggling to assert authority over us war-torn land, called Wednesday for the withdrawal of Israeli, Syrian and Palestinian forces and the formation of a multinational peacekeeping force to supervise the Palestinian evacuation. After meeting in Lebanon's shell-pocked presidential palace, the Cabinet issued a statement hewing closely to the proposals advanced by the United States to settle the Lebanese crisis. It was the first time the Lebanese government, which has not controlled its country for seven years, had formally announced its position on the crisis. Israel invaded Lebanon June 6 to smash the PLO and Israeli forces have trapped Yasser Arafat's guerrillas in west Beirut.

Israel is demanding that the PLO withdraw all us forces from Lebanon. The Cabinet's communique said the government supports the efforts of President Elias Sarkis and Prime Minister Shafik Wazzan "to deal with the crisis emanating from the Israeli occupation, and to "ensure the withdrawal of all non- Lebanese armed forces." Sit also endorsed Wazzan's proposal for "a multinational force to ensure the Palestinian pullout from Beirut." President Reagan has agreed in principle to contribute 1,000 U.S. Marines to such a force. As the Cabinet met, Israeli jets roared over Beirut in a mock air raid and Palestinian anti-aircraft gunners tried vainly to shoot them down. There were reports of several skirmishes, but the cease-fire in effect since Sunday appeared to be holding in most of Beirut.

U.S. presidential envoy Philip C. Habib met with Sarkis after the Cabinet but no statement was made about their discussion.

The boarcf will adopt a permanent budget in the fall when the state apronriates funds for the district. Projections by the Ohio Department of Education forecast the Zanesville School District will receive about $7 million in 1983 compared to $5.7 million in 1982. hchooi Superintendent Trafford Dick and board members aren't counting on getting the full $7 million from the state, however.

Both the PLO and U.S. officials say Syria is the logical destination for the guerrillas if they agree to leave Lebanon. Syria has announced that it will not take them.

The Saudis have frequently assisted in negotiations between the United States and Syria.
