Sadat Agrees to Begin Proposal for Geneva
JERUSALEM (JTA) -
Premier Menahem Begin of
Israel and President Anwar
Sadat of Egypt appear to
be in agreement that the
Geneva Peace Conference
should be reconvened in Oc-
tober. On Tuesday, Begin
suggested Oct. 10, shortly
after the end of the Jewish
High Holidays, and Sadat
was quoted as saying in an
interview that this was an
"encouraging sign."
October was originally
mentioned by Begin. Sadat
vonded favorably in a
.!ech in Libreville, Gabon
on Monday but reiterated
Arab demands that the Pa-
lestine Liberation Organiza-
tion be a participant in
peace negotiations. Israel is
adamantly opposed to a sep-
arate PLO role.
Nevertheless, Begin wel-
comed Sadat's response. He
said that "any positive reac-
z
U.S. ambassador's resi-
dence were reassured by
the American envoy, Sam-
uel Lewis, that President
Carter has not changed his
conceptions as to the es-
sence of an Israeli-Arab
peace settlement.
Lewis stressed Carter's
ideas on the nature of a
Mideast peace settlement-
commercial relations and
the exchange of tourists be-
tween Israel and its neigh-
bors.
President Carter said last
week that the "specifics" in
the Middle East dispute
have been discussed "ade-
quately" in public and the
Administration will "re-
frain from additional com-
ments on specifics" prior to
Begin's visit.
The President also reite-
rated that the United States
"has no solution to impose"
on parties to the dispute.
tion on the side of the Arab
leaders to Israeli sugges-
tions will be received here
with blessings." But he cau-
tioned, "In the final analy-
sis it is the content (of the
talks) not the date" which
is important.
(In Washington, U.S. offi7
cials reacted cautiously to
the apparent Israeli-Egyp-
tian agreement on a time-
table. State Department
spokesman John Trattner
said, "We welcome positive
indications of the desire to
get the negotiating process
started." But he added that
any discussion of details
would have to await further
talks with Middle East lead-
ers, including Begin who
will meet with President
Carter in Washington July
19-20.)
At the same time, Israeli
officials who attended the
July 4th reception at the

job." he said. and under difficult circum-
stances, since agency and communal need
so often outstrip our ability to meet all
requests."

Carter's comments were
made in response to criti-
cism by Sen. Jacob K.
Javits (R-NY) and others
that the Administration has
been too specific on its
ideas for a solution and has
been pressuring Israel.
Carter said that it had
been "good" to have an
open discussion on the
issues so that Israel and the
Arab states can have a bet-
ter "understanding" of
each other's views. He said
the U.S. position was that
of a mediator and it would
be effective in this role only
to the "degree both sides
trust us."
But Carter stressed' again
that the U.S. will "never"
abandon its "commitment
to Israel and I have made
this clear to every Arab
leader."
Rabbi Joseph Sternstein,
president of the Zionist Or-
ganization of America, said
Vice President Walter Mon-
dale stressed during their
half-hour meeting at the
White House last week that
the Carter Administration
on the whole is extremely
sensitive and aware of the
disturbance within the Jew-
ish community over Admin-
istration expressions regard-
ing Israel and the Middle
East.
Those fears, compounded
by the State Department
statement calling for Israeli
withdrawal from occupied
territories and a homeland
for the Palestinians, were
downplayed only slightly by
Begin, who said he was pre-
paring for his Washington
visit with the trepidation of
a Jew preparing for the
Day of Atonement.
Begin said, however, that
he had information about
the statement that may
allow some good to come
out of the bad. He would
not elaborate.
Both the White House and
State Department con-
tended that National Secu-
rity Affairs advisor Zbig-
niew Brzezinski did not in-
itiate the statement, but
they would not identify the
originator.
CBS correspondent Mar-
vin Kalb, in a broadcast
last week, said Brzezinski
was responsible and that
"indirectly, the President
seemed to be admitting
that the statement was a
blunder."
A
State . Department
spokesman said the state-
ment, in its final form, was
the "product of con-
sultations by the Secretary
of State and the National
Security Council."
