culated that the Arabs would
go to war, witness Israel's
heavy losses in the first
three days. At the same
time, Israel saw more vic-
tories in three days than in

did not expect an attack nor
want to launch a pre-emptive
attack.
Israel will go open-minded
to the peace talks, he said,
but it will be "extremely

major factor in peace negoti-
ations.
He said that peace talks

I respectfully urge everyone (especially
company executives) to address a brief

The council said Czech in-

Prague broadcasts. The
Czech news agency reported
that the diplomatic missions
of Arab countries in Prague
had expressed their "deep
thanks to Czechoslovakia for
the expression of solidarity
and political support."
Increasing trade ties be-
tween Czechoslovakia and
the Arab countries was re-
ported, with representatives
of the Arab countries visiting
the industrialized East Euro-
pean country. A source re-
ported that Czechoslovakia
has played a leading part in
the buildup of the war econ_

These figures, reported by
Asian diplomatic sources in
Cairo, are higher than those

The North Korean pilots
are working within Egypt's
air defensive system, as op-
posed to operations likely to
bring them into offensive
combat with the Israelis. It
is believed the North Ko-
reans see this as an oppor-
tunity to become acquainted
with the latest American
weaponry and systems now
in the hands of Israelis.
