Navon offered his ideas in an address to the Council of the National Democratic Party, the ruling party of Egypt, consisting of some 60 of Egypt's top political ,fig- ures headed by former Pre- mier Mustapha Khalil. Speaking in Arabic, in which he is fluent, Navon also touched on political is- sues relating to the West Bank-Gaza autonomy negotiations and the Pales- tinian problem. "These are subjects of historic, religious, emo- tional and security sig- nificance," he said. "There are serious dif- ferences of opinion be- tween us and it is sense- less to underestimate them. If Egypt and Israel wished to sweep them under the rug, the negotiations could have been concluded long ago, but the deliberations are being conducted in the desire to confront the problems and try to ar- rive at reasonable solu- tions and this calls for great patience," he said. Navon's hour-long speech was interrupted by applause only once — when he mentioned President Anwar Sadat, but his ad- dress appears to have been well received by his audi- ence of government minis- ters, party leaders and the heads of various gov- ernmental. departmerns‘, Although he stressed that it was not within his compe- tence to negotiate on au- tonomy or any other subject during his visit to Egypt, he mentioned the Palestine is- sue. "We know of its existence, appreciate its importance and want its solution," he said. "Unfortunately, the Arabs of Palestine and the government of Jordan have refused to sit at the negotiating table. In their absence, it is Egypt that as- sumed the burden of negotiating the details of autonomy." Navon said he came to Egypt to bring to the Egyptian people a true greeting from the Israeli people and to express its determination to adhere to the path of peace in spite of all difficulties. He said his proposed "supreme headquarters for peace" would be composed of people of great moral and spiritual strength of both countries, including teachers, psychologists, sociologists and statesmen. Navon had his second meeting with President Anwar Sadat Wednesday at the Egyptian leader's birth- place, the Nile delta village of Mit Abul Kum. It was a follow-up of their two-hour meeting at the Abdeen Palace in Cairo Monday night. Sadat said he and Navon had agreed that a second formal meeting was needed to conclude discussion on several subjects that re- main to be resolved. Both presidents appar- ently needed time for consultations after their Monday night get- together. Navon told re- porters that he has been in contact with Premier Menahem Begin and re- layed to him the contents of his initial talk with Sadat. He also stressed tha the did not come to Egypt to negotiate in details over outstanding issues, but to air and review the situation and consider ways to pro- mote the continuing negoti- ations. At an impromptu press conference after the Mon- day meeting, Sadat said the question of "full autonomy" had been raised for the West Bank and Gaza, emphasiz- ing the world "full," and the issue of Jerusalem which he sees as related to it. "Yes, we have raised the question of Jerusalem," the Egyptian leader said. "After all, this is part of the gen- eral autonomy issues." Navon said at his own press conference later that the Egyptian president is consistent in his approach to the issues and stands by the ad- dress he made to the Knesset in his historic visit to Jerusalem in No- vember 1977. Although Navon, who is Israel's chief of state, is not a political figure, Sadat ap- pears to be seeking in him a supporter at the top level of Israel's leadership to re- place former Defense Minis- ter Ezer Weizman. Sadat regarded Weizman not only as a personal friend but as a man who could understand the Egyptian point of view and on occasion support Cairo's positions against the official position of the Begin government. Significantly, the Egyp- tian media, including its French and English as well as Arabic publications, have given extensive cover- age to the Navon visit. Navon and Sadat have also discussed bilateral is- sues relating to the nor- malization process between Egypt and Israel and, in that area, they appear to be in substantial agreement that normalization should proceed at a faster pace and on a more substantive level than has been the case until nciw._ In Jerusalem, the Is- rael cabinet endorsed a series of understandings reached between Sadat and Nvaon to speed up the normalization proc- ess between Egypt and Israel. Navon, cabled Begin on his meeting with Sadat and asked for government ap- proval of the two presidents' mutual declaration of in- tent and desire to push ahead with various facets of normalization. Sources in Jerusalem said understandings the tourism, encompassed commerce, culture and a - ricultural cooperatic _ Sadat, among other things apparently agreed to abro- gate earlier announced Egyptian plans to apply more stringent entry re- quirements for visitors, especially foreign pilgrims seeking to fly from Eilat into Sinai and visit the Santa Katherina Monas- tery. The two presidents also rexolved to reactivate ag- ricultural development projects inside Egypt which have been discussed before but which have not ad- vanced much beyond the planning stages. Alvin Kushner, executive director of the Jewish Community Council, issued a warning this week about Proposal D on next week's election ballot — the Tisch tax cut proposal. Kushner said analyses done by the League of Women Voters, United Community Services and the Michigan League for Human Services show that Proposal D would have a se- vere impact on health alai social services. Voluntary agencies which are partially funded through "pur- chase of services" con- tracts would be servely hurt and property owned by non-profit groups and municipalities might be subject to tax if Tisch is adopted. Kushner added that the Jewish Family Service would be affected by cuts state general assistan programs, the Jewish Home for Aged would receive re- duced Medicaid payments, and Jewish Vocational Service would receive re- duced funding for its pro- grams for the mentally re- tarded.

Sources close to Begin said all the under- standings were in fact reiterations of past understandings. "We hope this time they will be implemented," these sources observed. But, at the same time, the sources flatly dismissed press speculation that the premier was peeved or otherwise offended at Na- von's involvement in such matters. On the contrary, the sources said, Begin- con- tinued to regard Navon's visit to Egypt as a marked success and relations be- tween the premier's office and the president's were "excellent."
