Jarring Report Delay Traced to French, Egyptian Pressure JERUSALEM (JTA) — Informed sources here Indicated a belief that United Nations Secretary General U Thant is under pressure from Egypt and France to delay publication of a report to the Security Council which is believed to state that some pro- gress' has been achieved so far in the Jarring talks. The circles said Egypt wants to suppress the report because any sign that the Jarring talks are progressing would deprive it of the grounds for asking for a special Security Council meeting on the Middle East. Cairo is said to be supported by France in its attempt to convene the Security Council in order to pressure Israel to make further concessions it, circles here said. on withdrawal from the occupied territories.

S. intercessions and apparent encouragement from Moscow induced Egyptian - President Anwar el Sadat to concede on Thursday morning to an extension of the Middle Fast cease fire for a month—to March 5. While speculation and rumor were peddled widely on all fronts,, with com- mentators vying for scoops regarding the expected extension of the temporary - peace on the banks of the Suez, it was known that Israel was acceding to proposals for extended armistice pledges while threats from Cairo were creating fears of an- other war. It was generally believed that in the event of another outburst of fir- ing that Israel could withstand any Egyptian attack, even with Soviet aid. The U Thant appeal conceivably ended the Sadat belligerence, although the extension of the cease fire for only a month was less than expected. But there was further speculation about a U. S. insistence for it on the bEtSis of a pledge to strive for conclusion of . peace 'agreements this year. . JERUSALEM (JTAJ — Official - dircles,- here appeared-to be satisfied Wednesday with the course taken by the Jarring talks so far, and by UN Secretary General U Thant's statement re- leased Thursday urging- both sides to maintain the cease fire and his finding that "there has been some progress" in the talks under the auspices•of his special envoy. Israelis are not certain that de facto obtervance will hold more than a few weeks, especially if the Cairo government, frustrated by its inability to turn the Jarring talks to its advantage, yields to trigger-happy army officers who want to renew the war.

The Tsukermans received exit visas for their entire fam- ily but this is rarely the case for most applicants, they said in an interview published in Yediot Ahronot. The new motto of Soviet Jews, therefore, is, "If you don't let us go, then at least let our children go," Tsukerman said.

Two thousand demonstrators had massed to protest to the police over a parade and meeting scheduled by the neo-Nazis in a nearby park. But although the police persuaded the neo-Nazis to postpone their program, 500 of the demonstrators re- fused to disperse. Instead, they stormed the neo-Nazi headquarters, smashed windows, tore down Nazi emblenis and flags and left the place a wreck. Six shots were fired from the building by neo-Nazis. The police moved into the building and con- fiscated the guns, but made no arrests. Two women among the 16 neo-Nazis in the building were rescued from the demon- strators by policemen who took them out by a back door. Four demonstrators were arrested and charged with unruly beha- vior. Some reports said the Australian branch of the Jewish Defense League was involved. (Irving Calderon, international coordinator of JDL, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency in New. York Tuesday that he could not confirm JDL participation in the demonstration,buf that "I can't think of any other group that would do that." He said his organization's Australian branch was "a strong chapter, very, -very well trained" that had- 350 members as of 254 weeks. ago.) - • -- .
