HER ALD WHOLESALE K W C NEWS Weizman Tries To Arrange Summit Talk With Mubarak Jerusalem (JTA) — Ezer Weizman met with President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt in Cairo last Sunday. He flew there secretly on a special mission, the purpose of which was not disclosed but is believed to be an urgent attempt to arrange a summit meeting between Mubarak and Prime Minister Shimon Peres. Weizman, a Minister-With- out-Portfolio attached to the Prime Minister's Office, was ac- companied by Gen. (Res.) Avraham Tamir, Director Gen- eral of the Prime Minister's Of- fice who has been closely involv- ed in recent xigotiations with ivi Egypt. Their t '13 was approved by Peres, Forei Minister Yit- zhak Shamir anc\Defense Min- ister Yitzhak Rabin-:\ Weizman and Tamir were reportedly joined by Israel's Ambassador to Egypt, Moshe Sasson, at their session with Mubarak. Weizman, who has had close contacts with Egyp- tian officials since his participa- tion in the Camp David talks seven years ago, is said to fear that unless a Peres-Mubarak summit takes place soon, the en- tire peace process could be in jeopardy. Peres is believed to share this view. Israel's cool relations with Egypt were further strained by the unenthusiastic reception give in Cairo to Israel's offer of a package deal to settle the Taba border dispute by interna- tional arbitration — as Egypt has demanded — and move at the same time to revive the stall- ed process of normalization bet- ween the two countries. The Egyptians insist that a summit date can be set only after a date is set for arbitration to begin. They infuriated many Israelis by flatly refusing to give Israel the report of the special commis- sion set up to investigate the murder of seven Israeli tourists by an Egyptian soldier at Ras Burka in eastern Sinai last Oc- tober 1. Weizman reportedly tele- phoned Mubarak over the worsening situation and was told by the Egyptian leader that he had an open invitation to visit Cairo. Weizman is also said to have informed Mubarak he would keep his visit secret lest it be jeopardized by elements of Likud. Likud circles in fact openly criticized their party leader, Shamir, for approving Weizman's trip. The urgency of his visit was underlined by the fact that Tamir, in effect a personal emissary of Peres, flew in from Europe where he had been escor- ting the Prime Minister and im- mediately boarded Weizman's plane to Cairo. No details of the meeting with Mubarak were reported here. Weizman is believed to have ex- plained to him the importance of the decision by the Inner Cab- inet to offer Egypt a package deal including arbitration over Taba. Observers here said that un- less Weizman returns from Cairo with an agreement for an early summit, Peres' prestige, no less than his own, would suf- fer a severe blow and the peace process will be in danger.

Bonn (JTA) — The Flick group of companies, a West German industrial conglomo- rate, said last week it has paid $2 million to the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany to compensate surviv- ing Jewish slave laborers used by one of its subsidiaries, Dynamit-Nobel, during World War II. There are an estimated 1,000-1,300 surviving slave laborers who were used by Dynamit-Nobel. The one-time payment was approved by Deutsche Bank, West Germany's largest bank, which acquired the Flick group last month for $2 billion. It was described as a "humanitarian" gesture.. The bank's board chairman, Wilhelm Christian had said earlier that the bank was under no legal obligation to pay compensation to former slave laborers. The Flick group, founded by the late Friedrick Flick and sold to Deutsche Bank by his son, Friedrich Karl, denied it had utilized slave labor during the Nazi era, through it did profit from the acquisition of Jewish companies "aryanized" by the Third Reich. , In a related development, an anti-Semitic cannard by a rank- ing member of the Christian So- cial Union (CSU), the Bavarian sister-party of Chancellor Hel- mut Kohl's ruling Christian Democratic Union (CDU), has added to the bitterness sur- rounding Jewish efforts to get the peutsche Bank to honor a reparion agreement reached last y ar with a company the bank recently took over. Hermann Feilner, who heads the Home Affairs Committee of the CSU's Bundestag faction, made clear that he thinks there is neither legal nor moral obli- gation for Deutsche Bank to pay reparations to former Jewish slave laborers. The claims on the Deutsche Bank "create the impression that Jews are quick to show up whenever money jingles in German cashboxes," he said. His remarks infuriated the Jewish community and drew the ire of other Bundestag factioUs.
