(Original Caption) President Abdul Salam Arif, (left), head of the new Iraqi revolutionary regime, poses with a group of his followers at Baghdad Hotel here recently, after a news conference. Standing next to Arif is Premier El Bakr. The others are not identified. Confusion on February 18th surrounded the whereabouts of some 1,500 Soviet-bloc-military men and technicians as the search for Communists opponents of Aref's government continued. The new Iraqi Minister of State, 28-year-old Hazim Jawad, denied reports that the new regime's search for Communist means the government is against Communist ideology. Jawad said, "but we are against those Communist Party members who rose against the revolt in the first hours."
