stalled pace talks in Wash-
ington, but without success.
There is speculation in Is-
rael that the U.S. may take
a hands-off position for the
time being . as a 'means of
exerting pressure on both
sides to resume negotia-
tions.
Foreign Minister Moshe
Dayan is reportedly going to
meet with Kahlil this
weekend.
anwhile; Cairo con-
111111k ed that a message
om Premier Menachem
Begin has been delivered
to President Anwar
Sadat. The text of the let-
ter was not disclosed but
it is believed to contain
Israel's Response to
Egypt's latest proposals.
Officials in Israel said the
peace talks could be re-
sumed immediately if
Egypt - responded in a
positive manner to Be-
gin's message. Egypt has
been reported to'have of-
fered a concession on its
demand for a fixed time-
table for autonomy on the
West Bank and Gaza
Strip.
Top Israeli officials de-
nied that Israel has agreed
to any compromise over Ar-
ticle VI in the peace treaty
draft which Egypt appar-
ently wants eliminated or
changed. Dayan, who left on
a two-day official visit to
Switzerland Wednesday
told reporters at the airport
that he knew of no change in
the attitude that Israel has
expressed on the subject. He
did say that Sadat's letter
was very difficult and
Dayan saw no reason to re-
sume negotiations at this
time.

there was no truth to an
Egyptian report that Israel
had agreed to remove Arti-
cle VI from the treaty text if
its intent was expressed in a
letter accompanying the
treaty. Article VI estab-
lishes that the Israeli-
Egyptian peace treaty will
take precedence over any
past treaties Egypt has with
other Arab countries aimed
against Israel.
According to the news-
paper Maariv, a senior
source who participated in
the Washington negotia-
tions that produced the
draft treaty observed that
there was no need for a let-
ter unless the objective was
to alter Article VI and Israel
remains totally opposed to
that. Sources in the Prime
Minister's office also denied
that Begin's letter to
President Sadat offered any
compromise on Article VI.

problems that must be
thought about. They must
be thought about because
peace will pose new issues
not only for Israel but also
for the Arab nations in the
Middle East. They, no more
than Israel, cannot continue
to live on the fact or imagi-
nation of external danger.
And even more than Israel,
much more than Israel, they
will face such challenges
that this development
brings to this location,. that
this location require& new
political forms. Indeed,
what is a problemto Egypt's
being -a society separately
may provide a means of
cooperation for them
jointly, espeCially as the
Middle East as a unit is now
faced by a Soviet strategy-
that has bypass,ed, for the
time being, the countries
within the area, but the
Soviet has attempted to
encircle them through bases
just to the south of them
and therefore the former
enemies may find common
interest and common pur-
poses.
So you have honored me,.
on an occasion that is close
to the realization of what
were dreams in 1973, on
that day when the Armi-
stice was signed and I vis-
ited Tel Aviv and we started
on the road to Peace.
This road has been ex-
tended and broadened by
successors, but through the
centuries of their disper-
sion, the Jewish people have
prayed and hoped that next
year they be in Jeruialem.
We meet on _an occasion
when we can say with confi-
dence and with hope that
next year in Jerusalem,
which will live at peace and
that can work for a coopera-
tive future.
that Israel had reluc-
tantly accepted the treaty
draft put forward by the
U.S. and now the U.S.
should pressure Egypt to
accept the same draft.
Meanwhile, Prof. Yoram
Dienstein, dean of the Tel
Aviv University law school,
blasted the draft peace
treaty from a professional,- _
legal view-point, saying it
was amateurish and had
many loopholes.
Although official Israeli
circles ridiculed Dienstein's
view, Chief Justice Meir
Shamgar of the Israel Sup-
reme Court agreed with him
on the treaty preamble and
Article VI.
On another treaty point,
Israel Energy Minister Yit-
zhak Modai told the Knes-
set that Egypt refuses to
grant any special considera-
tion to Israel for Israel's oil
developments in Sinai. He
said Israel wants a firm
commitment to 1.5 million
tons of Sinai oil annually,
but Egypt wants to sell Is-
rael oil on a normal com-
mercial basis, with no quan-
tity specified.

farewell appearance be-

izations, Israel Ambas-
sador to the U.S. Simha

tonomy on the West Bank

and Gaza Strip would
lead to a Palestinian state
unless Israel retains the
right to keep troops in
those areas and Jewish
settlement continues.
In Jerusalem, Senate
Majority leader Robert
Byrd (D-W..Va.) told report-
ers that Prime Minister
Begin is determined "to con-
tinue with the brave task
that was begun at .Camp
David."
Byrd, on a Mideast mis-
sion for President Carter,
also visited Egypt and Jor-
dan. He also met with West
Bank dignitaries in an ef-
fect to convince them to ac-
cept Israel's autonomy plan.
He called on Israel for
greater- flexibility in the
