I downloaded the SPSS file and tested this, first in SPSS itself, and then in R. In SPSS I get 699686 cases, and I am seeing data for all states.
I then tested the code you gave in R. First, read.spss is not in the haven package, but in the foreign package. The haven package uses read_spss or read_sav, not read.spss. Also the other parameters are different between the packages.
I was unable to load the data with read.spss from the foreign package. I got the message "Error: cannot allocate vector of size 5.3 Mb".
I then tried with the read_spss from the haven package:
I2015 <- read_spss("C:/Users/21180/OneDrive - ICF/Data/DHS_SPSS/IAIR74FL.SAV", user_na=TRUE)
and it successfully loaded the data showing "699686 obs. of 4796 variables".
I would first try reading the data with read_spss. If you are still only getting 32757 cases, then I think the data file that you have is somehow truncated so I would suggest downloading the dataset from our website again and trying to read it again using read_spss.
