her on the cheek. Begin told
reporters; "Whoever speaks
of a Palestinian state as a
result of my plan does not
know what he is talking
about."
It was reported from Lon-
don that Begin left his Brit-
ish hosts with • the feeling
that his apparent willing-
ness to make everything
negotiable would force
Syria eventually to join in
peace talks that are already
tacitly supported by Jordan
and Saudi Arabia.
Begin told a press confer-
ence in London shortly
before his departure that he
thought Syria might enter
the negotiating process at a
later stage just as it belat-
edly signed an armistice
with Israel in 1949, seven
months after the other Arab
states. He refused to discuss
details of his peace plan but
replied affirmatively when
asked if Israel still sought a
comprehensive settlement
with all of its neighbors.

Begin Proposes Self Rule
for W. Bank Arabs

NEW YORK (JTA)—Is-
raeli Premier Menahem Be-
gin said that he will propose
to Egyptian President An-
war Sadat the the Palesti-
nian Arabs on the West
Bank and the Gaza Strip be
given "self-rule."
The premier also stressed
that Jerusalem will remain
a united city and the capital
of Israel with each religious
group having control over
its holy places.
But, Begin, in an inter-
view on CBS-TV's "Face
the Nation, - Sunday refused
to give any details of his
proposals until he discusses
them with Sadat in Egypt.
He also refused to say
whether President Carter,
with whom he had met last
weekend had approved of
the proposal although he
noted that Secretary of
State Cyrus Vance had said
the President considers Be-
gin's efforts "constructive."
The Israeli Premier
stressed that he didn't ask
Carter for a "com-
mitment," but had sought
the President's "goodwill
and understanding" which
he had received. "I am
leaving (Washington) a hap-
py man," Begin said.
Most of the talks had cen-
tered on "the question of
what is going to happen
with the Palestinian
Arabs," Begin said. He then
revealed that he proposed to
give the "Palestinian Arabs
self-rule for the first time in
history." He noted they had
never had "autonomy" or
"self-rule" since they had
been governed by the Turks,
the British, Jordan and now
Israel.
He added that Israel's
rule was probably the most
benevolent but it was still a
military government. "We
will make it possible for the
Palestiaian Arabs to have
self-rule. They will conduct
their own affairs." Begin
explained. "We will have
our security.'
Asked what would happen
if under self-rule the Pales-

tinians elected Yasir Ara-
fat, head of the Palestine
Liberation Organization,
Begin again reiterated that
Israel will not deal with the
PLO. But he said he
doubted that the Palesti-
nians in a democratic elec-
tion would elect destructive
people such as Arafat or
that such people would be
willing to run in the elec-
tions.
Begin said that if he and
Sadat come to an agree-
ment he hopes that Carter
would then invite both of
them to Washington.
When it was pointed out
that both Sadat and the
Saudi Arabians have
stressed that East Jerusa-
lem must be in Arab hands,
Begin said, "I feel strongly
about Jerusalem, too," not-
ing it was the capital not
only of Israel but of the
Jewish people. "Jerusalem
is one city, the capital of the
state of Israel, with com-
plete access to the holy
shrines of all religions," he
said. He noted that during
the 19 years of Jordanian
rule Jews were denied ac-
cess to the Old City and the
Western Wall.
The premier rejected a
suggestion that his proposal
would mean that there will
no longer be any new Jew-
ish settlements on the West

--

Bank. He said once an
agreement has been
reached, Jews should have
the right to settle in Sa-
maria and Judaea as they
do now and West Bank
Arabs should be able to
settle in Israel.
Begin stressed again that
Israel still wants a com-
prehensive agreement with
all the neighboring Arab
states. But he said if Egypt
wants a separate agreeme-
as a first step to a cox
prehensive agreement, Is-
rael will consider it.
Begin said he and Sadat
wanted to work out an
agreement that would last
beyond their tenures in of-
fice. He said that Sadat told
him he would not run for re-
election in 1981 and he cer-
tainly did not expect to be
premier by then.

JERUSALEM (ZINS)—
Shmuel Schnitzer, writing in
the newspaper Maariv, be-
lieves that the only thing
that will increase aliya to
Israel will be Israeli society
creating an attractive cli-
mate for immigration.
He wrote that societal
changes must be an over-
riding task of the Begin gov-
ernment.
