The arrest of army officers continued here to day in the Government's effort to round up members of a pro-Communist spy ring, which was reported to have planned nationwide disturbances in order to force the Majlis not to ratify the oil agreement with the Western nations.

By yesterday, 435 officers were said to have been detained as well as some civilians. It was reported that the army was seeking some 60 others.

Brigadier-General Hosein Azmoudeh said today he hoped to start trials of the army officers within the next two weeks.
