Sharon asked the com- mittee to postpone its delib- erations on the matter until his committee completed its work. The committee, formed when the Likud government took office last June, has made no progress since then despite promises by Likud that a solution would be found. Ikrit and Birim were evacuated in 1948 during Israel's War for Indepen- dence. The villagers claim that the Israeli army promised that they could return to their homes in a short time and have evidence support- ing that claim. Instead, their lands were divided among Jews in neighboring settlements and the villages were razed, ostensibly as a security measure to prevent their use by terrorist infiltrators from Lebanon. _ Re-Elected to Argentine Post BUENOS AIRES (JTA) — Nehemias Resnizky was unanimously re-elected president of DAIA at the general assembly of the or- ganization.

Michigan 48075 • Dial 353-8080 Sharp divisions within the Cabinet over the value of continuing contacts with Egypt in their present form have surfaced in the past few days. In conversations with various members of the Knesset, Foreign Minister Moshe Dayan repoitedly described the "Jerusalem- Cairo" axis as "barren," a reference to Defense Minis- ter Ezer Weizman's meet- ings with President Anwar Sadat two weeks ago and his projected return visit to Cairo that was supposed to take place this week. Although Weizman did not succeed in persuading Sadat to resume the milit- ary and political committee talks, suspended since January, he expressed the view, in his subsequent briefings of the Cabinet, that the maintenance of these contacts was the most effective way to break the negotiations impasse. He cited the fact that Sadat in- vited him to return in sup- port of that argument. But some Cabinet members claimed Sadat was engaging in a public relations ploy aimed at widening the gap bet- ween Israel and the U.S. It was also suggested that the Egyptians were try- ing to build up Weizman whom they regard as far more flexible than Pre- mier Menahem Begin. Meanwhile, former Pres- ident Gerald Ford, in a speech strongly, critical of President Carter's Middle East policy, charged that Carter is making "serious mistakes" in his treatment of Israel. "Nothing is more destruc- tive to the negotiating progress than for the United States to leave the impres- sion that it dogmatically in- sists that Israel make con- cessions," he told some 1,400 persons at a dinner Council of Young Israel in New York. "Only the par- ties themselves can negotiate peace." Ford said that the Carter Administration's major mistake in the Mideast was bringing the Soviet Union back into the region. The Carter Administ- ration should use the 1975 Israeli-Egyptian ag- reement worked out dur- ing the Ford Administra- tion as a basis for future negotiations, the former President said. Ford also criticized what he called "escalating public rhetoric" in current U.S. diplomacy. Former Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, also speak- ing in New York, said the heart of the Mideast conflict is not the Palestinians, but the refusal of the Arabs to admit that Israel is a sovereign, Jewish state. A similar speech Rabin made at the University of Kansas last Friday was re- peatedly interrupted by pro-Palestinian de- monstrators. In a speech in Atlanta, Assistant Secretary of State Alfred Atherton, President Carter's ambassador-at- large in the Middle East, said that Israel's "new" in- terpretation of UN Resolu- tion 242 and her settle- ments in the administered territories complicated Middle East peace negotia- tions. Meanwhile, Agricul- ture Minister Ariel Sha- ron got Knesset Finance Committee approval for an additional IL 20 mill- ion budget for develop- ment work at outposts in the Rafah salient of northern- Sinai. But he won the grant only after sharp questioning by committee members and a bitter debate during which Sharon accused his political foes of "mer- Black Rhodesian Newspaper Supports Hard-Line Arabs By ARTHUR KENIGSBERG Nu Way News and Press Agency SALISBURY — Within a period of three weeks, the pro-Arab Rhodesian Afri- can daily "Zimbabwe Times", came out with its second anti-Israel, pro-Arab editorial Ignoring the PLO attack on two buses north of Tel Aviv, it started giving prominent headlines to Is- raeli retaliatory actions against south Lebanon. Concluding its first editorial with a call for a common opposition to Israel and a real danger of war, which would make the Is- raelis less arrogant and more compromising, the second editorial is headed, "Arabs should be united", and goes on to say, "We re- peatedly said that President Sadat's peace mission would bring disaster, was badly timed, and a terrible politi- cal blunder by politicians in a desperate bid to be acclaimed world-wide as great statesmen, should have been made when pres- sure on Israel was such that she would have had to ac- cept the Arab basic de- mands." "What Sadat did was to appease a people who were in no mood to com- promise." Ignoring.President As- sad's opposition to the visit was a stupid mis- take, the editorial states. It calls on President Sadat to iron out his dif- ferences with Syria and the PLO. With the Arab world united, it goes on, it will be easier to squeeze the necessary conces- sions from Israel. Claiming that the UN and the world moral opinion are backing the Arab cause, especially that of the Pales- tinians, the editorial con- cludes, "The Arabs should unite so that Israel does not exploit their differences to her advantage." ood bl. Labor Alignment MKs, joined by coalition "doves" wanted to know what point there was to invest money in an area the government has already announced it would return to Egyptian sovereignty. They demanded that Sha- ron explain the reasons for establishing the 13 outposts and questioned Sharon's contention that all the work he authorized in Sinai had prior approval by the Cabinet. In San Francisco, the as- sociation for Peace in the Middle East wrote Presi- dent Anwar.
