Haig: U.S. Pleased Autonomy
Negotiations Have Resumed
WASHINGTON (JTA) —
Secretary of state Alexan-
der Haig said that the Ad-
ministration was "pleas-
antly surprised" about the
resumption of the autonofny
talks, announced at the end
of the two-day meeting be-
tween Premier Menahem
Begin of _ Israel and
President Anwar Sadat of
Egypt in Alexandria last
week.
There had been reports
that some Administration
officials expressed unhap-
piness over the announce-
ment- of the resumed au-
tonomy talks because the
U.S., which is a partner in
the talks, was not notified in
advance. But Haig at his
press conference gave no
indication that this was the
case.
The , Secretary of State
said he was also pleased by
the announcement of the
conclusion of the summit
that Egypt and Israel were
establishing committees to
oversee Israel's final with-
drawal from Sinai next Ap-
ril.
In Tel Aviv, Foreign
Minister Yitzhak Shamir
said that Premier Begin's
autonomy plan is the only
path to peace and Israel
will wait until the idea is
accepted by the Palesti-
nians.
But a wide cross-section
of West Bank Arab leaders
virtually unanimously re-
jected it in weekend radio
interviews.
Meanwhile, Egypt has
agreed that Israel will re-
move all equipment from
airfields it is to evacuate in
the Sinai by next April but
leave the infrastructure in-
tact, according to Defense
Minister Ariel Sharon. '
Sharon stayed on in
Egypt for an additional day,
after Premier Begin and his
party had left, for additional
talks on the Israel's with-
drawal from Sinai. He said
he and Egyptian ministers
and officials had worked out
general policy lines on ex-
tending of normal relations
between the two countries.
Committees are to be
named and meet alter-
nately in Israel and Egypt
to discuss details concern-
ing border problems, includ-
ing civil aviation, police and
customs cooperation, and
communications.
Menuhin Fund for Czechs
Yehudi Menuhin, writ-
ing from his London
home, has expressed his
support of the fund in
memory of his late sister,
stating he was "glad to
think that-people in dis-
tress will continue to be
helped in Hephzibah's
name, for that is what she
would have wished." She
was a pianist and social'
worker.
The Czec.hoslovak Jewish
Aid Trust, 12-13 Henrietta
St., London WC2E 8LH, is
appealing for additional
funds.
