Blum said the outcome of Tuesday's .election repre- sented "a measure of the re- grettable decline of the '4 United Nations' status." Kittani claimed the vic- tory when, in the third round, his name was selected by lot. The third round procedure followed a tie vote between Kittani and his rival for the posi- tion, Khwaja Mohammed Kaiser of Bangladesh. Egyptian Envoy Praises Sharon's W. B. Measures UNITED NATIONS (JTA) — Ambassador Ahmed Esmat Abdel Meguid of Egypt praised the "new lenient measures toward Arabs on the West Bank initiated by Defense Minister Ariel Sharon (of Israel), who is a hawk." Addressing a leadership mission of Agudath Israel of America at the UN head- quarters last week, in whcih 125 members of the organ- ization participated, Meguid said that 'the new measures would help in the "building of confidence" be- tween Arabs and Jews. The Egyptian envoy said that Israel should have "'pa- tience" with the process of normalization of relations with Egypt and urged the Jewish state to "take risks for peace." Asked "how Egypt can expect Israel to trust the PLO" Meguid replied that "there are non-radical ele- ments amongst the Palesti- nians that Israel could talk to."
