He said Carter at that time talked of a full peace and now the state- ment talks of normalization of relations.

Meanwhile, Begin told the Jewish Agency's board of governors that there was nothing that could not be negotiated with the Arab states. He said all sides to the talks can raise any sub- ject "but without any for- mulas imposed from with- out." - - The premier said he was "going to Washington full of hope. that I will find a common language with President Carter." He ex- pressed the hope that his visit would be the beginning of preparations for a real peace. Begin's statement echoed the Foreign Ministry's which said there was no foundation for the argu- ment that Israel has ex- cluded any territories from the negotiating process, The Foreign Ministry spokesman said that accord- ing to the guidelines of the government, everything is open to discussion and nego- tiation. He referred to Begin's speech to the Zion= ist General Council last week which said that Israel does not present ulti matums and the term "not negotiable" does not exist in any Israeli dictionary. The spokesman said that other matters referred to in the State Department state- ment, such as the definition of "real peace" were sub- jects to be discussed be- Straight Tal with That's our simple no-nonsense sales policy at Tamaroff Buick-Opel.

Meanwhile, Begin and De- fense Minister Ezer Weiz- man continued -to stress the view that withdrawal from the Judaea and Samaria re- gions would face Israel with grave dangers to its security. Both spoke at a re- ception Tuesday on the de- parture of Sephardic Chief Rabbi Ovadia Yosef on a trip to the U.S. Begin insist- ed that for Israel, retention of Judaea and Samaria was a matter of survival. In Washington, Alfred Atherton virtually conceded that the U.S. is pressing Is- rael to return to its pre-1967 borders because the Arabs are not indicating they will compromise on territories. He also said that Jerusalem "has to be part of the nego- tiating process." Atherton was responding to a question at the opening session of a two-day nation- al meeting at the State De- partment of editors and broadcasters to discuss for- eign policy. "I have to say from all our talks with the Arabs that I do not see any in- dication they are prepared to both give up their posi- . ALFRED ATHERTON tion of non-acceptance and non-recognition of Israel and to give up the territory beyond the 1967 borders. One has to see in the per- ception of the Arabs that there is already a territo- rial compromise—they are giving up a claim of terri- tory in that part of Pales- tine which has become Is- Atherton added: "There are statements on the re- cord and also in our private discussions that their (Arab) objective is to make permanent peace with Is- rael. We ask no one to take this on faith. That's why we need negotiations to test this." He did not identify the arab leaders. With reference to Jerusa- lem Atherton said, "We do not accept Israel's actions" as determining the city's fu- ture. But he said, "We would find it anamolous and repugnant to go back to the physical division that ex- isted before 1967. Realisti- cally, one has to acknowl- edge the Palestinian as- pect" of the situation. "Nobody's aspirations are going to be totally satisfied if there is to be a settle- ment. - He added. "but at least" the Palestinians will have had "a fair shake." Atherton described Vice President Walter Mondale's reference to a - Palestinian homeland or entity prefera- bly in relations to Jordan" as being an -example - of a solution. The President, he said, has not defined wheth- er it would be an independ- ent state or not. Should Israel find itself going under in a war, would the United States become in- volved militarily to save her, Atherton was asked. He replied, "That would be a major and agonizing deci- sion for an administration to face." It would have to be a decision, he observed, "reviewed by the President in consultation with Con- gress and we would have to get the best judgement pos- sible of what the attitude of public opinion in this coun- try was as to how we should act in such circum- stances." However, Atherton felt, "Happily, I don't see this arising in the foreseeable fu- ture in light of the military capabilities of both sides." Vance, Atherton and State Department spokes- man Hodding Carter all said that the department's statement Monday sugges- ting Israel's withdrawal from administered terri- tories had no affect on U.S.- Israel relations. But later Tuesday Vance told reporters that Israel can not set "pre-condi- tions" on the negotiations (the Begin government's stand on the West. Bank) without hampering the U.S. role in the negotiations. Egypt and Jordan, in offi- cial statements, hailed the U.S. pronouncements as a change in U.S. policy and a positive new step. The Carter Adminis- tration also officially said Tuesday it will welcome Begin to Washington and is looking forward to hearing his views on a Middle East settlement. The State De- partment also said that Na- tional Security Affairs Ad- viser Zbigniew Brzezinski telephoned Israeli Ambassa- dor Simha Dinitz to this ef- fect. Dinitz left for Jerusa- lem Tuesday for a week of consultations preparatory to Begin's visit. The Brzezinski call of re- assurance came after re- ports filtered privately and unofficially to reporters that the Administration would have no point in meeting with Begin if he did not retreat from his po- sition of maintaining that Judaea and Samaria are parts of Israel. said Carter Hodding Wednesday that the State Department statement was never meant to suggest that Israel should withdraw im- mediately from the occu- pied territories. Meanwhile, Dinitz and Rabbi Alexander Schindler, chairman_of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organiza- tions, both asserted late Tuesday that no material changes have taken place in the U.S. and Israeli posi- tions. Both also emphasized that they are seeking to pre- serve harmony in America- Israel relations. The Dinitz and Schindler comments were made at the State De- partment after they held separate half-hour meetings with Secretary of State Cyrus Vance. Earlier Dinitz also met with Brzezinski at the White House. Dinitz was asked by re- porters whether there are differences in Israeli and American policies. "There is no secret," the ambassa- dor replied, -that we had differences of opinion on some items before. I don't think as a result of this (State Department) state- ment any of the differences were either resolved or aug- mented. I think basically it was a restatement of Ameri- can policy. I don't think there was any material changes." Schindler disclosed after meeting Vance that he and other Jewish communal leaders will meet with Pres- (Continued on page 13)- For Custom Drapery Cleaning, Call DRAPERY CLEANERS "All That The Neale Implies" We Also Wash & Finish Drip Dry Curtains Professionally WE DO ALL THE WORK REMOVE AND INSTALL 891.1818 Suburban Call Collect Reverse Charges • :e•sprea•s Council Calls for Mideast Talks • Lampshades NEW YORK — The im- portance of face-to-face ne- gotiations between Israel and the Arab nations, with complete flexibility to nego- tiate their own peace agree- ments by themselves, was stressed at last week's board meetings of the Coun- cil of Jewish Federations (CJF), held in New York City. • Blankets , ‘. . 61 ,";1; ■ .
