ISTANBUL, Turkey (AP)
At a meeting Thursday with represen-
tatives of 17 women’s groups, but not NOW,
Carter said the issue had caused great fric-
tion between him and his wife, according to
Sarah Weddington, the president's assistant
for women’s issues.
Ms. Weddington said she sided with the first
lady in the dispute, while Carter’s lawyers
backed the Justice Department.
“The president said he would not overrule
the Justice Department because it was in-
appropriate to interject politics into the
case,” Ms. Weddington said.
Doing so, Ms. Weddington contended, would
have been tantamount to accusing Callister of
lying when he said he would render an im-
partial decision based on the law and not on
the tenets of his church.
ment should press to remove U.S. District
Judge Marion Callister, a member of the
hierarchy of the Mormon Church, from a suit
challenging the constitutionality of Congress’
extension of the deadline for states to ratify
the ERA.
The Mormon Church officially opposes both
the ERA itself and the extension of the ratifi-
cation deadline But Callister has refused to
remove himself from the case, saying he will
render an impartial decision
Mrs. Carter reportedly felt "very strongly”
that the government should appeal Callister’s
decision. The president felt it should not.

H-Payne receives
gift from Beadel
A check of *25,000, part of a *100,000 commitment made by J.
R. Beadel Sr., was received by Howard Payne University Thur-
sday.
According to Dr. Guy D. Newman, president emeritus of
HPU, the gift designated to the Chair of Free Enterprise in the
HPU's Douglas MacArthur Academy of Freedom represents a
substantial sum in the commitment Beadel has made.
Beadel is chairman of the board of J. R. Beadel Co. in Brown-
wood and a director of First National Bank. He was elected to
the Academy of Freedom at a meeting of the board in Dallas on
Nov. 6.
In addition to his election to the board of directors of the
Academy of Freedom, Richard Mason, executive vice president
of Woodson Newspapers Inc., Dr. Charles Stewart, chief
executive officer of HPU, and Warren Duren of Goldthwaite,
along with several others, were named to the board.
Jack Pilon, chairman of the board of First National Bank and
member of the Academy of Freedom board; Harold Preston,
vice president in charge of financial affairs; and Newman ex-
pressed gratitude for Beadel’s gift.
"Mr. Beadel strongly believes and advocates the Free En-
terprise System and reflects his faith in the future of HPU and
our great country by this generous gift," Newman said.

"If the world wants to climb
on Iran's back for the sake of 50
people who are not, in my view,
in any danger, the whole thing is
completely out of proportion,”
Sadegh said.
A spokeswoman for the mili-
tants holding the embassy said,
meanwhile, that the hostages
will be allowed to receive
Christmas cards, or at least
some cards.
On Thursday, the 15 NATO
foreign ministers, meeting in
Belgium, issued a statement
denouncing the hostage holding,
and Secretary of State Cyrus R.
Vance said the European allies
showed “solidarity" with U.S.
plans to slow down or block
trade with Iran if the hostages
are not released soon.
The International Court of
Justice is expected to issue a
call for the hostages’ release
this weekend. If Iran does not
heed it, the United States plans
to seek U.N. Security Council
sanctions against Iran. U.S. of-
ficials say they believe the So-
viet Union will support the
move.
