' Brandt said following talks
with Premier Meir that dif-

visit.
He announced that Mrs.

at a date yet to be set.
Prior to his departure, the
chancellor was involved in

i accident. They were picked
up by a second helicopter.
Earlier, Brandt met for 40
minutes with Defense Minis-
ter Moshe Dayan at the Ak-
kadia Hotel in Herzliya. They
reportedly discussed the prob-
lems of Arab refugees since
1948.
Brandt also had a private
meeting at the same hotel
with former Premier David
Ben Gurion. They reported-
ly reminisced over the days
when Brandt was the mayor
of West Berlin and Ben Gur-
ion, as premier of Israel,
was advocating the normal-
ization of relations between
Israel and West Germany.
The chancellor also dis-
cussed economic relations be-
tween the two countries with
Finance Minister Pinhas Sa-
pir. The discussion touched
on Israel's relations with the
European Common Market,
continuation of West Ger-
many's DM 140,000,000 an-
nual development loans to
Israel, expanded German in-
vestment in this country and
the reparations problem.
Brandt stressed repeatedly
at a state dinner in his honor,
at a press conference, at a
banquet he gave for Premier
Meir and on other public oc-
casions that the past can he
neither undone nor forgotten.
But he stressed equally
West Germany's intention to
maintain strict "even-hand-
edness" in the Middle East
dispute, and that while his
country was prepared to help
bring the two sides together
it offered neither mediation
nor advice.
At the state dinner, how-
ever, Brandt appeared to be
asking both Israel and the
Arab states to take example
from his • "Ostpolitik" (rap-
prochement with the Com-
munist bloc) which lie said
"has been no easy path" and
has "required us to give up
illusions and indeed to aban-
don hopes which had been
right on their side" because
"without a secure peace, all
hope would be in vain."
At his press conference,
Brandt added that improving
relations with one country
did not mean deterioration
of relations with another. "To
be more specific, improving
relations with another coun-
try will not be at the ex-
pense of the state of Israel,"
Brandt said. He noted that
the Israeli government shared
this view.
Brandt stressed that Israel
and West Germany have had
normal relations since they
exchanged ambassadors eight
years ago but these have al-
ways been in the context of
the historical background of
the past. "Without the ac-
ceptance of our share of re-
sponsibility for the crimes
which Nazism committed
abusing the name of Ger-
m a n y, external freedom
would not be credible nor
reliable," he said.
"The three decades that
separate us from the days
of horror made us forget
nothing of what must not be
forgotten," he said.
Brandt said that the matter
of compensation for Nazi
victims was not brought up
in his talks with Mrs. Meir.
He said he held out little hope
that people not covered by
existing legislation would be
brought into a new frame-
work of restitution, but noted
that negotiations were pro-
ceeding with Dr. Nahum
Goldmann, president of the
World Jewish Congress.

Soon after his arrival,
Brandt made his first stop—
at the tomb of the Six Million.
He arrived at Yad Vashem
in a black limousine flying
the Israeli and German flags.
The building and its approach
road winding through the Jer-
usalem Forest was lined with
security men.
Observers said the security
was tighter than for any
other world leader who has
visited Jerusalem in the past.
The chancellor stood before
the huge memorial candle
with folded arms and listen-
ed to the Israel Broadcast-
ing Chorus singing, "Out of
the Depths I Have Cried Unto
Thee, 0 Lord." Brandt was
flanked on his right by Yit-
zhak Arad, general manager
of Yad Vashem, and on his
left by Knesset member Gid-
eon Hausner, the Israeli state
prosecutor at the time of the
Eichmann trial.
Two youths handed the
chancellor a wreath. He
walked to the tomb of the
martyrs and bent over to
place the flowers.
Then, unexpectedly, Brandt
walked to a microphone and
recited the 103rd Psalm in
German: "He hath not dealt
with us after our sins, nor re-
quited us according to our
iniquities. As for man, his
days are as grass, as a flow-
er of the field, so he flourish-
eth. For the wind passeth
over it, and it is gone; and
the place thereof knoweth it
no more."
Brandt went fishing in the
Sea of Galilee, was narrowly
missed by two eggs thrown
at him outside the Jerusa-
lem City Hall and laughed
ruefully with sweltering
guests inside after the air
conditioning broke down.
Brandt met with a dele-
gation of Jewish immigrants
from the Soviet Union and
promised them he would do
his best to try to secure the
release of Jews imprisoned
in the USSR because they
want to emigrate to Israel.
The chancellor went on a
walking tour of East Jerusa-
lem, but in the guise of a
tourist rather than as a guest
of the state. The private na-
ure of the visit was empha-
sized lest Brandt's presence
in the Old City be construed
as German recognition of Is-
rael's annexation of the area.
He visited the Church of
the Holy Sepulchre and was
greeted outside by a Ger-
man Franciscan theologian,
Prof. Wolfgang Elpidius Pax,
with whom he concersed in
German. He waved to Arab
shopkeepers who stood out-
side their shops.
Later, he attended a recep-
tion given by Mayor Teddy
Kollek of Jerusalem at which
he was introduced to the
Arab mayor of Hebron,
Shiekh Mohammed Ali el-
Jaabari.

Brandt was the guest of
Deputy Premier Yigal Allon
at his home at Kibutz Ginos-
sar on the western shores of
the Sea of Galilee. He took
a swim in the pool, fished in
the sea and proudly displayed
a medium sized St. Peter's
fish that he caught.
Later, he attended a cock-
tail party given by Allon and
was introduced to Israeli,
Arab and Druze notables.
Brandt took a nighttime sail
on the lake
The egg incident occurred
as Brandt was entering the
Jerusalem City Hall to at-
tend Mayor Kollek's recep-
tion. The thrower managed
to hide behind a wall despite
heavy security measures.
Brandt was unaware of the
assault as one egg was
caught by a security man
in mid-air and the other
splattered a policeman.
The reception in the City
Hall, attended by a gather-
ing of Jews, Arabs and Chris-
tion dignitaries, was marred
by the air-conditioning fail-
ure in the City Council cham-
bers. The guest of honor took
it with good humor, drawing
laughter when he spoke of
Mayor Kollek's "warm" re-
ception as he mopped his
brow.
Emerging from City Hall,
Brandt waved at crowds
across the street who re-
sponded with waves and ap-
plause. There were some
boos and shouts of "Ger-
mans go home."
Brandt called on President
Ephraim Katzir Friday, ac-
companied by Premier Meir
and Foreign Minister Abba
Eban. Israel's president pre-
sented the visitor with a
2,000-year-old glass vase from
the Second Temple period.
Brandt also met at the King,
David Hotel with former Pre-
mier David Ben Gurion.

Sirhan's Brother
Linked to Death
Letter for Golda

LOS ANGELES—A prose-
cuting attorney here contend-
ed that fingerprints on a let-
ter threatening the life of
Israeli Prime Minister Golda
Meir belonged to Sharif
Bishara
Sirhan, older brother of
Sirhan Bishara Sirhan, who
is serving a life sentence for
the assassination of Sen.
Robert F. Kennery in 1968,
was charged • with mailing
the three-page letter to the
State Department shortly be-
fore Mrs. Meir's visit to
Washington.
The letter reportedly said
the "dead conscience, Rus-
sian-born Golda Meir will be
shot and killed . . . March 1."
Assistant U.S. a t t o r n e y
Paul G. Flynn said three
"blatant fingerprints" be-
longing to Sirhan were found
on the letter.
