Cannons pounded out a 101-gun salute. The Teheran Symphony Orchestra played a new coronation hymn ("You are the shadow of God"), and unofficial Poet Laureate Lutfali Suratgar read a three-minute ode ("The crown and throne of the King of Kings shone over the world as the sun and the moon shine in the firmament").

...army in the NATO structure, as well as the long-term effect of a provisionary cut-off. It neglects the fact that the Common Market and NATO countries violently disapprove of the coup. The EEC may no wrefuse to allow membership to Greece, and the Investment Bank has already withheld $72 million of the $125 million planned for Greece.
