Sources said that the delay was apparently due to the fact that the Arabs have not succeeded in persuading the U.S. not to veto a Kuwait-sponsored, PLO- inspired resolution urging the Security Council to sup- port the right of the Palesti- nian people to "self- determination."

Suite I 39 • Oak Park. Michigan 48237 sources, the unusual coop- eration between the PLO and the U.S. in requesting the delay of the Council meeting is a result of "the quiet, behind-the-scenes" contacts between American officials and the PLO. Dip- lomats explained that a U.S. veto in the Security Council — as Israel vigor- ously requested — could have an adverse effect on the present PLO-American contacts. "It therefore can be as- sumed that the PLO and the U.S. agreed to postpone the Council meeting and con- tinue with the delicate con- tacts," a diplomat ex- plained. A vote on that resolution had been expected this week. It emerged from the recommendations of the General Assembly's special committee on the inalien- able rights of the Palesti- nian people, a 23-nation body which Israel does not recognize. The committee called for Israel's withdrawal from all occupied Arab territories, the creation of a Palestinian state and the return of Arab refugees to the homes they left in what is now Israel. The Kuwait resolution omitted those points in what was viewed as an at- tempt to avoid a U.S. veto. Reports published in Is- rael last week claimed that the U.S. was considering amendment of Security Council Resolution 242 to facilitate its acceptance by the PLO which, in turn, could lead to recognition of the terrorist organization by the U.S. According to the reports, the resolution would be amended to refer to the rights of the "Palesti- nian people" instead of "Palestinian refugees." A spokesman for the U.S. Mission to the United Na- tions said, "We are not con- sidering the amendment of any resolution." She added, "Our position in regard to the PLO has not changed.

Department State spokesmen in Washing- ton repeatedly stressed the same points this week. They stated Wed- nesday that President Carter would "be willing to talk with the PLO" if it recognized Israel's right to exsist. Israel's Ambassador to the UN, Yehuda Blum, who returned to Israel last week for consultations, said on his arrival that there was no foundation to the Israeli press reports. Nevertheless, diplomatic sources at the UN indicated Friday that such a change was indeed being contemplated. That some change is in the offing seemed to be hinted by Assistant Secre- tary of State for Near East and South Asian Affairs Harold Saunders in his ap- pearance before the Mideast subcommittee of the House Foreign Affairs Committee in Washington Friday. Al- though he reiterated that the U.S. is committed not to negotiate with or recognize the PLO unless it accepted Israel's right to exist, Saun- ders made it clear that the issue had political ramifica- tions in addition to the legal commitment to Israel. Asked about the possibil- ity of the U.S. holding in- formal talks with the PLO, Saunders replied, "It is a sensitive political issue and we are going to be dealing with that not as a legal issue but as an issue that must be resolved in the context of * * * Carter Equating supporting the negotiating process." At another point he ob- served, "We are dealing here not just with a legal commitment but with a political situation. The political situation is that we have opened the door and invited one million Palesti- nians to be represented in the negotiations which are now beginning . . . I think the important thing for all of us is that we de- velop the kind of dialogue with Palestinians that will move the negotiating proc- ess forward by their partici- pation in the resolution of the process." Rep. Lee Hamilton (D- Ind.) said he felt Saunders' remarks indicated that the U.S. is "on the verge of a concerted effort to include Palestinians of all political stripes in the negotiating process." Saunders said he agreed with Hamilton's assessment. He also said there had been "an evolu- tion" in some PLO attitudes toward Israel. When the JTA raised the question of the reported amendment to Resolution 242, a State Department of- ficial insisted there was no foundation to such reports. In Israel, meanwhile, Foreign Minister Moshe Dayan, just returned from a visit to Holland, stressed to reporters that the U.S. was committed not to recognize the PLO unless it accepted Resolution 242. "The U.S. is bound by its commitments in the bilateral agreement with Israel," Dayan said in what was seen as a direct reply to Saunders. He that the U.S. "reaffirmed after the signing of the peace treaty with Egypt (March 26) that it would continue to abide by its commitments to refuse to negotiate with the PLO un- less that organization ac- cepted 242."

The reports have aroused fears that anti-Semites and anti-Israeli extremists are planning an even bigger campaign on British cam- puses after the summer va- cation. The Protocols are promoted here not only by an extreme right-wing pub- lishing company but by stu- dent "Islamic Societies."
