The Michigan Daily--Thursday, May 11, 1978--Page 7 CARTER AGREES TO COMPROMISE: More planes for WASHINGTON (AP) - President Carter, on the eve of crucial congres- sional committee votes on his proposed three-way Mideast arms sale, agreed yesterday to sell 20 additional jet fighters to Israel in the future. White House press secretary Jody Powell announced an apparent ad- ministration compromise with congressional critics of Carter's plan- ned $4.8 billion warplane package for Israel, Egypt and Saudi Arabia. POWELL REFERRED to the com- promise as an administration commit- ment to Israel. He said it "meets the responsible concerns" of Senate and House members who had questioned the planned delivery of sophisticated F- 15 fighters to Saudi Arabia and F15s to Egypt. - Word of Carter's decision came one day after Defense Secretary Harold Brown relayed to members of two congressional committees -a formal statement of Saudi Arabian assurances to use U.S.-supplied fighters only for defensive purposes. Carter wants to sell 75 F-16s and 15 F- 15s to Israel, 60 F-15s to Saudi Arabia and 50 F-5s to Egypt. The compromise is aimed at blunting congressional op- position, which revolves about the planned companion sale of sophisticated F-15s to Saudi Arabia. THE COMPROMISE had been rumored throughout the week as sup- porters and opponents of the irms sales package manuevered to win allies on Capitol Hill. Powell said Carter will support the sale of 20 additional F-15s to Israel in the mid 1980s. He added that the ad- ministration will give "sympathetic consideration" to Israeli requests for still more modern warplanes in the future. Israel in Sen. George McGovern (D-S.D.), a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said the White House announcement "greatly in- creases the chances the arms sale will be approved." ACTUALLY, THE question before McGovern's panel and the House Inter- national Relations Committee is whether to support resolutions rejec- ting the arms deal. The two committees have scheduled votes on the issue today. Sen. Frank Church (D-Idaho) called the administration offer a "bonafide ef- fort" at compromise but said it has not produced the kind of consensus inside the committee needed to head off "a bruising debate" on the Senate floor. And key House opponents of the war- plane sales package said Carter's offer is not enough. They said they're trying to win a promise that the president also future will sell additional F-16s to Israel. 'CERTAINLY that statement is very helpful," Rep. Dante B. Fascell (D- Fla.) said. "But it appears that it is not enough." Fascell said some opponents are also trying to get Carter to sell Saudi Arabia fewer than the 60 F-15s proposed. Rep. Clement Zablocki (D-Wis.), chairman of the International Relations Committee, said, however, he remains confident his panel will defeat any resolutions of disapproval. BOTH THE HOUSE and Senate must pass resolutions of disapproval or the arms sales go through. Administration officials repeatedly have said Carter will not change the basic terms of the proposed sales package, but would commit the United States to a subsequent sale of additional planes to Israel.
