19 (AP) Forces loyal to the absent Shah swept Iron-willed, weepy old Premier Mossadegh out of power today with a bloody and violent nine-hour coup. At least 300 persons were killed and Mossadegh's chief henchman was reported torn to pieces. MOSCOW, Aug. 20 (Thursday) (UP) Russia announced today it has exploded a hydrogen bomb. A Soviet government communique -said the bomb was exploded "a few 850" for "experimental purposes." The announcement came less than two weeks after Soviet Premier Georgi Malenkov aid in a speech that the United States had "no monopoly" on the H-bomb.

"A few days ago in the Soviet Union one of the types of the hydrogen bomb was exploded for experimental purposes," toddy's official communique said. "As a result of the explosion a thermonuclear reaction of great force was set off," it added. "The experiment showed the power of the hydrogen bomb is many times stronger than the power of atom bombs," it went on. "It is well known that for several years 0e Soviet Union has possessed atomic weapons and carried out corresponding tesls of these weapons," the announcement added. It said that, as follows from Malen-kov's address before the Supreme Soviet last August 8, "The Soviet Union also possesses the secret of the manufacture of ihe hydrogen bomb." The communique said Malenkov's announcement had "evoked numerous comments" abroad, and added: "Cerlaih foreign circles who based their policies on the former monopoly of the United States of the atom bomb, and also of the hydrogen bomb, are 'ryint; to frighten the people wilh the facts that the Soviet Union possesses the secret of the manufacture of the hydrogen bomb and in this connection have caused alarm, using the facl for the purpose of intensifying the armaments race.

"The Soviet government considers it necessary to declare now as before there is no foundation whatever for such alarm." The announcement said the Soviet government had proposed to other governments repeatedly a substantial reduction of armaments including a ban on the use of atomic weapons, with district inter, national control to enforce the ban within the framework of the United Nations. These proposals, it said, were made in connection "with the unchanging policy of the Soviet Union directed towaid strengthening the peace and security of many peoples." "The Soviet government firmly continues to hold this position at the present time," the announcement added. The communique was published in the government newspapers Pravda and Izvestia. The two newspapers ran the announcement in the upper right-hand corner of the second page under a two-column headline saying merely: "A goverment communique on testing of hydrogen bomb in the Soviet Union." (In Washington, the U. S.

Atomic Energy Commission confirmed today that Russia has exploded a hydrogen superbomb. (Lewis L.

19 (AP) -Russia's Andrei Y. Vishinsky today accused Korean President Syngnian Rhoe of doing everything possible, with the help of what he called reactionary circles in the United States, to ire-vent an agreement on the future of Korea. Vishinsky said Dr. Rhee still xvas determined to conquer North Korea by force. He also told the United Nations Assembly's political committee that a l.Vcountry resolution limiting participants in the Korean peace conference to combatants was "illogical." He said neighbors and other countries interested should have a hand, but he lott up in the air a definite answer as to whether Russia would attend the peace conference if asked to on the side of the Communists.

Western delegates, hoping lor vote in the 60-nation committee bv Friday, said they expected Russia to be present at the conference regardless of what strong language Vishinsky might use against various resolutions. DULLES TAIK.ET OF UEI) Vishinsky said that John Foster Dulles. American Secretary of State, hail agreed with Dr. Rhee not to take unilateral military action while the conference was under way. and also to walk out at a certain time if results were not obtained.

Relations with London disintegrated two years ago in the fight over Mossadegh's oil nationalization program. Iran broke re-lations with Britain despite strong S. intervention.

Mossadegh repeatedly accused the Shah, during this time, of being pro-British and pro-American. As reports streamed In tinder-scoring the Shah's victory, he began to emerge from diplomatic isolation. He had been ignored officially in his first hours in Italy. Late today, the Italian Foreign Office', which previously bad taken a "wait and see" attitude, sent a representative to "pay respects." ROME, Aug. 19 (AP)-The handsome young Shah of Iran, a forlorn fugitive monarch 24 hours ago, made plans jubilantly tonight to fly back to his throne in Teheran.

He hoped to charter a plane overnight and take off tomorrow for the return to his country, whence he fled by air Sunday.

Teheran dispatches said order had hern restored in the capital city after the nine-hour royalist coup that, booted out the government of Premier Mohammed Mossadegh. Pacing his hotel suite, the Shah, Mohammed Reza Pahlevi. beamed joyously over the reports. It was an hour of blazing triumph for the 33-year-old ruler.

But, tempering his enthusiasm with caution, the Shah waited bv a radio tuned to Teheran and inquired repeatedly for telegrams or messages that might bring later news. "I want to fly back immediately." he exclaimed.

"Those who did the lighting are to be forgotten under the Vishinsky plan," Mr. Lodge said. "To paraphrase the Anieiican humorist Will Rogers, those who won the war are going to lose the peace," Vishinsky poked fun at the countries allied In the Korean war for oflering separate resolutions on the conference.
