Egypt officially denied an Israeli
raid on electric power lines near
Sougah Village on the Nile Sun-
day night.
Israeli photo reconnaissance
planes flew over the target area
Tuesday and brought home pic-
tures of the damaged electric
pylons and Egyptian workers re-
pairing the damage. A military
spokesman said the Egyptian
government was desperately try-
ing to conceal the extent of Is-
raeli penetration of Egyptian ter-
ritory, especially from its own
people.
He said the photographs
taken by the Israeli planes show
the world how authentic Egyptian
claims and, denials are. An
Israeli army spokesman confirm-
ed Tuesday American press re-
ports that Israeli jets had flown
over Cairo in mid-June without
encountering opposition. Col. Ra-
fael Ephrat said he did not
know whether the Israeli pilots
had actually buzzed the home of
Egyptian President Nasser in a
fashionable Cairo suburb as re-
ported, but, he said, they did get
a good look at the Egyptian capi-
tal.
The Israeli overflight with no
Egyptian interference reportedly
infuriated President Nasser and
caused him to change air force
commanders for the fourth time
since the June 1967 war.

Israeli jets struck four guerrilla
bases in Jordan in a pre-dawn
bombing and strafing attack Tues-
day. A miliary spokesman said
the targets were near the villages
of A Salt and El Nimrin. He said
all aircraft returned safely to their
bases. The attack, the second by
Israeli jets in two days, followed
Premier Golda Meir's warning
Monday that attacks against Is-
raeli border settlements would
bring "seven-fold" retaliation.

A significant drop in the num-
ber of guerrilla forays since Is-
raeli jets went into action
, against
their bases was noted by Israeli
officials Tuesday. For the first
time there was no Israeli inter-
ference with Jordanian workers
repairing the $85,000,000 East
Ghor irrigation canal damaged
by Israeli commandos recently.
Mrs. Meir said Monday that
Israeli would allow the repairs
on the assumption that the Jor-
danian government would re-
strain its army and guerrillas
from further attacks on Israeli
settlements. (See earlier story,
Page 16.)

In other fighting Monday, two
saboteuers were killed in a clash
with an Israeli patrol in the Arava
district south of the Dead Sea. One
Israeli soldier was wounded in an
artillery exchange with Egyptian
forces across the Suez Canal, and

one Israeli civilian was injured. A
military spokesman said the Egyp-
tian opened fire with artillery and
small arms in several sectors dur-
ing the night.
Israeli officials meanwhile adopt-
ed a wait-and-see attitude toward
Monday's military and political
shake-up in Jordan. King Hussein
appointed his uncle, Maj. Gen.
Nassar Ben Jamil, as commander-
in-chief of the Jordanian army, a
post the king himself had held. He

also demoted his pro-guerrilla
minister of interior, Akef Fayes,
and replaced him with the former
intelligence chief, Mohamed Rasoul
al Kailano, Gen. Ben Jamil and al
Kailani have both opposed the pres-
ence of Arab guerrillas in Jordan
and have warned the king against
the guerrillas rising power and in
fluence with the army. Observers
here believe King Hussein acted to
gain firmer control over his 50,000-
man army and to restrain guerrilla
activity which could bring heavier
reprisals from Israel. -
But Gen. Ben Jamil, in his first
statement after assuming supreme
command, pledged his full support
of what he called "properly organ-
ized" Commando action against
Israel. He said he supported guer-
rilla sorties that struck the enemy
in places the regular armed forces
could not reach. He singled out last
week's sabotage of oil pipelines in
Haifa and Monday's bomb blast in

the heart of Tel Aviv as the type of
guerrilla action he approved. "We
expect war at any time and we are
preparing for it," Gen. Ben Jamil
said.

Mrs. Meir Will Visit U.S.
After Nixon's World Trip

JERUSALEM (JTA)—Mrs. Meir
will visit Washington in early
August instead of in July as origi-
nally intended, it was learned here.
Mrs. Meir was invited by Presi-
dent Nixon and accepted, but no
date for her visit was announced.
Sources here said she decided to
postpone the trip until after Mr.
Nixon returns from his round-the-
world tour next month during
which he will visit several Asian
countries and Romania.
President Gamal Abdel Nasser
of Egypt has sent a personal en-
voy to Paris with messages for
President Georges Pompidou and
former President Charles de

envoy, Hussein El Shafei, a mem-
ber of the executive committee of
Col. Nasser's Arab Socialist Union,
Egypt's sole political party, ar-
rived in the French capital last
weekend. Reports from Cairo said
his mission was to cultivate rela-
tions with the new French adminis-
tration.
Arab capitals are uneasy over
reports that the Pompidou govern-
ment plans to reconsider the em-
bargo on aircraft, military equip-
ment and spare parts for Israel
which was imposed by former
President de Gaulle after the June
1967 Arab-Israeli war. Col. Nasser's
message to Gen. de Gaulle report-
edly expressed appreciation for
France's past pro-Arab stand.
