The proposal - drafted by Rep. Clement Zablocki (D-Wis.) - seems certain to win the reluctant approval of President' Carter if passed by the ' Congress. Congressional sources said the idea already has been accepted by the administration. CARTER HAS said he would veto a Taiwan bill if it jeopardized the agreement under which the United States has established diplomatic relations with Peking. The Zablocki draft proposal falls far short of any explicit pledge of U.S. Military assistance in the event of any attack on Taiwan. Instead, it says: "The future of Taiwan, including issues relating to its autonomy, must be determined through peaceful meansIn other nations, would be a threat to the peace and stability of the Western Pacific area and of grave concern to the United States." It further pledges the United States to provide defensive arms to Taiwan and requires the President to promptly in- form Congress of any danger, to U.S. interests "arising from any threat to the security of Taiwan.". The security proposal is included in a general China bill requested by Carter to implement this country's new, less formal relationship with Taiwan. Un- der the new arrangement, the United States would deal with{Taiwan through a private American Institute. BECAUSE MEMBERS . of the Foreign Affairs Committee dislike the name American Institute, the Zablocki draft refers only to a "designated en- to Carter's new China policy may be in the Senate. A much tougher Taiwan amendment under consideration by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee would commit the United States to keeping military forces near Taiwan to resist an armed attack. ADMINISTRATION sources have in- dicated the Senate vertion would be vetoed by Carter, in part because it is modeled on the 1953 defense treaty with Taiwan, which will be terminated un- der the President's new China policy. In the Senate, the issue also has been complicated by the process by which lawmakers are being asked to confirm' the nomination of Leonard Woodcock as ambassador to Peking. Both the House and Senate commit- tees are scheduled to begin work on the Taiwan legislation today. Khomeini denounees march by anti-religious leftist guerrillas Tehran's streets were quiet yester- day - and schools reopened as Khomeini's government continued to consolidate its control. But new political trouble loomed for the 78-year- old leader of the year-long anti-shah rebellion and his provisional gover- nment under Prime Ministe Mehdi Bazargan. MEANWHILE IN Washington, the United States yesterday announced it was temporarily closing down its con- sulates in three Iranian cities due to the dangerous situation there. The State Department . said operations were being suspended tem- porarily in the Tabriz, Shiraz and Isfahan consultates. But the embassy in Tehran would remain open. Spokesman Hodding Carter told reporters it was "too dangerous for the time being" to keep the consulates open. THE PEOPLES Fedayeen guerrillas, a Marxist group that lost hundreds of fighters in years of struggle against the shah, announced it would organize a protest march tomorrow to dramatize its demand for more participation in the revolutionary regime. Spokesmen for the guerrillas said they would march, despite Khomeini s ban on demonstrations. The holy man himself had frequently ordered demon- strations despite orders by the shah's government to halt all but public gatherings. Khomeini said in a radio statement last night that the planned march was "anti-religious" and the work of com- munists. THE FEDAYEEN, an Arabic word for "warriors," are believed to oppose Khomeini's insistence that the new government be basically "Islamic," although Khomeini has not defined what he means by this. A committee of the National Front political coalition, whose members make up much of Bazargan's cabinet, issued an open letter urging that the Fedayeen and leftist intellectuals get a bigger role in the new regime. Khomeini spokesmen said 17 mem- bers of the shah's entourage escaped from Morocco aboard the monarch's personal Boeing 707 jet and turned the plane over to Khomeini forces. It was not clear whether that figure included the three bodyguards who spoke with reporters or not. MOROCCAN OFFICIALS say the shah gave the entourage permission to go back to Tehran, but informed sour- ces said the crew took off on an osten- sible training flight, apparently without the shah's approval, and then left Marrakech without a flight plan. The bodyguards, whose names were not revealed and who refused to be photographed, told a news conference that the shah is now guarded by several thousand Moroccan troops and only, four Iranian military officers, one of, whom is currently hospitalized. As an indication of the continuing unrest that has plagued the country, state radio announced that the Mahabad military barracks along the border between the provinces of Azer- baijan and Kurdestan "fell to the revolutionary forces of Khomeini yesterday." The radio gave no details of the fighting in the northwestern provinces.. IN A RADIO speech, Khomeini vowed to continue his revolution until "the hands of the United States, the Soviet Union and Britain are out" of the country. He warned , without elaboration that "traitors are seeking to demolish" the revolutionary movement. The new chief of'staff of the Iranian armed forces, Gen. Mohammad Gharani told newsmen that about half the country's military men have retur- ned to their barracks following mass desertions during the revolution. General Gharani indicated the vulnerability of Iran's military machine by saying the armed forces- were not self-sufficient and needed foreign technicians to service the vast armory of sophisticated weapons bought by the shah. "FOR THE TIME being we are not having anything to do with foreign military advisers. It is up to the gover- nment to settle their accounts. But the fact remains that we do not have self- sufficient armed forces. We need foreign technical staff, especialy to maintain aircraft," he said. The Iranian armed forces are largely U.S -equipped, but a large number of 'U.S. defense contract workers have pulled out already and more are leaving since evacuation was recom- mended after last week's attack on the U.S. Embassy in Tehran. Fear that a reconstituted army might stem the revolution haunts the left and urban guerrillas have so far refused to hand in their arms. IN OTHER developments, Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, who flew on a religious pilgrimage yester- day to Mashhad, Iran's Holy City near the northeastern border with the Soviet Union, will travel on to Tabriz, a gover- nment spokesman said. The spokesman gave no reason for Arafat's visit to Tabriz. ARAFAT MONDAY inaugurated the new , Palestinian Liberation Organization(PLO) office in what was formerly the Israeli commercial mission in Tehran. In 1974, Defense Secretary Robert McNamara announced the closing of 95 military installations in 33 states and abroad. REPORTS OF A withdrawal cen- tered on what the dean of the diplomatic corps in Peking, Am- bassador Elie Boustany of Lebanon, was told in a meeting with a Chinese Deputy Foreign Minister Ho Ying. The Chinese have not said when they will pull their troops back across the border. The Yugoslav news agency Tanjug, quoting Chinese sources in Peking, said the Chinese plan a withdrawal with no pre-conditions. China will not link its withdrawal with a pullout of Viet- namese troops from Cambodia, the sources reportedly said. THE SOVIET UNION, Vietnam's ally, has warned the Chinese to get out of Vietnam "before it is too late." President Carter, in a major foreign- policy address in Atlanta, said yester- day the United States had "consulted directly with leaders around the world" about the Vietnam situation. He ,was believed to be referring to contacts'with Soviet President Leonid Brezhnev and China's Vice Premier Teng Hsiao-ping, apparently made in an effort to head off a confrontation between the two com munist powers. In New "York, U.N. officials continued private consultations with represen- tatives of the 15 nations on the Security Council about a possible council meeting to deal with the conflict. Such a meeting was not expected until today at the earliest. SOURCES IN PEKING said Chinese army units on the Soviet border were put on alert, from Sinkiang in the west to Shenyang in the northeast, the Japanese news service Kyoto reported. It said the sources also reported that Chinese civilians had been evacuated from some sections of the Soviet bor- der. The Soviet Union was reported Mon- day to have canceled all military leaves and put its military on alert. Egypt, Israel, open talks WASHINGTON (AP) - Egypt and Israel open another round of secret peace negotiations today at snow- covered Camp David, with prospects for completing a Mideast peace treaty complicated by recent events in Iran. The shift of Iran from a somewhat neutral observer to an ardent supporter of the Palestinians and opponent of Israel is likely to make Secretary of State Cyrus Vance's job even more dif- ficult. VANCE WILL JOIN Egyptian Prime Minister Mustafa Khalil and Israeli Foreign Minister Moshe Dayan at the presidential retreat today after they stay overnight in the isolated setting that President Carter believes may facilitate an agreement. The Palestinian issue is the chief stumbling block to completing the treaty sketched out at Camp David last September by Carter in a summit meeting with Egyptian President An- war Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin. Egypt wants the treaty linked in clear terms to self-rule for the 1.1 million Palestinians living on the Israeli-held West Bank of the Jordan River and in the Gaza Strip. OnG' the eve of the start of the new talks, Egypt said the "situation in the region is dangerously tense," and urged the Israelis to realize that a com- prehensive peace settlement is vital.

The intelligence sources in Bangkok said the Chinese were on the move again yesterday after a one-day stan- dstill to replaze front-line units with fresh troops. THE SOVIET NEWS agency Tass reported from Hanoi that units of two Chinese divisions fighting at the western end of the border had captured Lao Cai behind a punishing artillery barrage. Lao Cai, a town of 70,000 or more, is on the Red River, astride the railroad linking Hanoi with Kunming, China. Thai intelligence sources said Viet- namese resistance elsewhere in Muong Khuong Province, which includes Lao Cai, was so intense that some Chinese units had to pull back and regroup. VIETNAMESE REPORTS claimed 700 Chinese had been killed in the fighting for Lao Cai, and 400 elsewhere in, the province. The Chinese government said it laun- ched the invasion Saturday as a "coun- ter-attack" to put a stop to what it said were Vietnamese border provacations. There was speculation the Chinese also wanted to ease the pressure on their Cambodian allies by drawing Viet- namese army units to the northern frontier and away from Cambodia. A Vietnamese invasion force -last month ousted the pro-Chinese Cam- bodian government of Pol Pot, whose troops now are fighting a guerrilla war in the Cambodian countryside. Vietnamese-Chinese hostility also- has heightened in the past year because of Hanoi's alleged mistreatment of Vietnam's Chinese minority, and because of Vietnam's new alliance with the Soviet Union, which China views as its greatest foe.

This would erase the nunerical advantage given the Soviets in the SALT I pact signed in 1972. The President said the effect of the new treaty would be to require the Soviets to cut their missile and bomber numbers by more than 250, or 10 per cent, while allowing the United States to "substantially increase" strategic forces. "WITHOUT THE SALT II agreement, the Soviet Union could have nearly one-third more strategic forces by 1985 than with SALT II," Carter asserted. e He said the pact will "specifically forbid interference" with U.S. efforts to verify compliance. The President began the day by wit- nessing the unveiling of a portrait of himself at the Georgia state Senate, where he once was a member.
