Nixon Meets With Ismail
•
(Continued from Page 1)
Ismail handed Nixon an
envelope which he said con-
tained "a message" to the
President from Sadat. Ismail
expressed Sadat's "best re-
gards" and "high apprecia-
tion" of the Egyptian gov-
ernment for being received
at the White House.
During the few minutes
newsrnen were allowed to see
Nixon and Ismail, the Presi-
dent did not mention either
Israel or the downing the
Libyan airliner in the Sinai.
Looking smilingly at the
newsmen, the President said
the press would not be in-
formed "of what we talk
about."
The Egyptian emissary
came here from London on
a mission reported to be the
climax of an Egyptian dip-
lomatic offensive in major
capitals to bring pressure on
Israel to withdraw from the
territories occupied in the
1967 war. When reporters
crowded toward the Presi-
dent and his guest, Mr. Nixon
and Ismail were heard dis-
cussing the travels entailed
in diplomacy.
Mr. Nixon said "There is
great desire" by the admin-
istration to help bring peace
to the region. "Instant peace
is a dream," he added.
"Permanent peace, as you
know, can never be assured
because people—even friends
—have differences."
From the White House, Is-
mail went to the State De-
partment for talks with
Secretary of State William
P. Rogers and other top of-
ficials.
The White House acknowl-
edged Tuesday that Dr.
Henry Kissinger and Ismail
had met briefly while Ismail
was at the White House for
his meeting with President
Nixon, but indicated Dr. Kis-
singer does not have a
"primary" role in the Amer-
ican government's participa-
tion in the Middle East situ-
ation.
Deputy Press Secretary
Gerald Warren told the Jew-
ish Telegraphic Agency that
Dr. Kissinger, President Nix-
on's national security ad-
viser, "dropped in" for "the
last five minutes or so" of
the Nixon-Ismail talks at the
White House and later spoke
"for a few moments" with
Ismail before the latter de-
parted for the State Depart-
ment to meet Rogers.
The New York correspon-
dent of the influential Cairo
newspaper Al Ahram had re-
ported Dr. Kissinger's par-
ticipation in Ismail's visit.
Asked by JTA to describe
Dr. Kissinger's role in the
Middle East situation, War-
ren referred to Dr. Kissing-
er's own remarks in the in-
terview with him last Sunday
night by NBC news corre-
spondent Barbara Walters.
"Now, with Vietnam off of
your number one priority
list, will you, Dr. Kissinger,
be turning your primary at-
tention to the Middle East?,"
Miss Walters asked.
"I will certainly not turn
my primary attention to the
Middle East," Dr. Kissinger
replied. "First of all, Mr.
Ismail was here not to see
me, but to see the President.
Of course, we are

According to Raymond
Noyes, clerk of the Record
who has been responsible for
its contents for 20 years, the
Government Printing Office
has fonts of Hebrew type and
of other foreign languages
but use of non-English in the
Record is "frowned upon"
except when in prayers. One
reason, he said, is the ab-
sence of proof readers who
can be sure of the accuracy
of the foreignism.
It was therefore astonishing
to find Hebrew in the Record
twice in 11 days late in Jan-
uary. Reporting the inaugur-
al ceremonies at the Capitol,
the Record carried the text
of the prayer given by Rabbi
Seymour Siegel, professor of
theology at the Jewish Theo-
logical Seminary. Naming
both President Nixon and
Vice-President Agnew in his
prayer, Rabbi Siegel spoke
the following words in He-
brew and in English: "Bles-
sed are You, 0 Lord Our
God, King of the Universe."
Less than a fortnight later,
the Record reported the eul-
ogy of Rabbi Jacob Press-
man of Temple Beth Am, Los
Angeles, on Eugene Wyman,
whose death at 47 of a heart
attack in his law office in
Beverly Hills was mourned
in the Senate by Senators
Mike Mansfield of Montana,
John V. Tunny of California.
Hubert Humphrey of Minne-

Sparkman of Alabama.
In eulogizing Mr. Wyman,
who earned distinction as a
leader in politics and among
his own people, Rabbi Press-
man quoted in Hebrew six
Majority Leader Mansfield
caused the publication in the
Record of Rabbi Pressman's
eulogy and also that given by
Bess Myerson, New York's
commissioner of consumer
affairs,
a
close personal
friend of the Wyman family.
Senator Humphrey fittingly
said of Mr. Wyman:
"As a loyal American, as a
devoted Jew, as a lawyer
with an understanding of
freedom's value, as a father
anxious to pass on a better
society to his children—in-
deed as a true citizen of a
democracy, Gene Wyman
knew that participation in the
political process was the
proper expression of the
Judaic-Christian ethic that
permeates the idealism of
our country."
