Carter feels Begin can negotiate peace (Continued from Page 1) United States administration has evern insinuated that Prime Minister Begin is not qualified to be prime minister or that he should be replaced," Carter said. "I think Prime Minister Begin and, his government are able to negotiate in an adequately flexible way to reach an agreement with Egypt and later Jordan and other countries," he said. "We have not given up on the possibility of a negotiated settlement." IN BRASILIA, Carter told members of Brazil's national congress their nation and the United States can "dis- agree, even vigorously on occasion, without bitterness or distrust." Carter and Ernesto Geisel, the president of Brazil, differ on the importance the American President attaches to human rights and to curbing the spread of atomic weapons. Before leaving Brasilia, Carter also met with officials of the Brazilian supreme court. He plugged for human rights, but balanced his call for justice for the oppressed with an endorsement of efforts to provide social stability.

In her speech, St. James argued that prostitute rights is essentially a feminist issue, and part of the ex- ploitation that "keeps women working for cheap." She said present laws against prostitution encourage this ex- ploitation because they encourage prostitutes to seek protection from male pimps - at high financial, 11 physical and mental cost. ST. JAMES ALSO criticized methods of curbing prostitution as leading to harrassment and physical abuse of prostitutes. Enforcement schemes such as indiscriminate mass busts subtly promote a treatment of women as "cat- tie," she said. Decriminalization of prostitution, said St. James, is the only means by which prostitutes' rights can be en- sured. However, she pointed out, "This is not a local or even a national problem, but a universal one that exists in Stockholm, Paris, Sydney . . edt." Consequently, she revealed; COYOTE is working with similar European groups to organize a world meeting that would put pressure on the U.S. to decriminalize the world's oldest profession. St. James said prostitute rights is totally consistent with President Carter's campaign for human rights. Thus, she is seeking sup- port from the American Civil Liberties Union and Amnesty International and threatens to take the issue to the United Nations for resolution.

He was met by Egyptian War Minister Mohammed Abdel Ghani Gamassy and they went by helicopter to Sadat's villa. Sadat, Weizman, Gamassy, Egyptian Vice President Hosny Mubarak and an Israeli aide at- tended the meeting. Weizman's meeting with Sadat was the first direct contact between Egypt and Israel since the defense minister's last visit here Feb. 1. He was Israeli's chief delegate in negotiations on Israeli withdrawal from the Sinai Desert. Weizman was preceded by a letter from Begin to Sadat two days ago uring him to come up with new responses to Israeli peace proposals and calling on him to reactivate the joint committees created in December.
