(Direct JTA Teletype Wire

LONDON — Delegates -to the
Arab military conference con-
vened in Cairo to discuss means
of preventing Israel's plans for
diversion of Jordan River waters
were reported here Tuesday to
be encountering difficulties in
working out a unified plan.
Israel plans to use the water
for a vast irrigation project in
the Negev. After several years
of work, the project is scheduled
to go into operation next spring,
a time table which has evoked
threats of military action by
some of the Arab governments.
Differences among the Arab
countries was reported hamper-
ing the delegates in their efforts
to work out a unified plan in
time for a meeting of the Arab
League Council next month. One
proposed plan was to build
canals in Jordan to lower the
Jordan River water level.
