Let^s Do Business With The Kremli

Somehow tbe notion is gaining hold that if Israel would only agree to with¬ draw to her pre-1967 borders the threat of Soviet- American ctohrontation hi the Middle East would recede, the U.S. would be spared from worry over a further naVal thrust tatto the Mediterranean, and Israel would benefit from a benign Kronlin. Whether hi tones of friendly persuasion or of dire warning, the sweep of ex¬ pression is the same- alienation of American public opinion from tinued unwavering support of Israel's logically in- Gontestible insistence on a negotiated .settlement with tbe Arabs before with¬ drawal. Ihus, the word is spread by ope pair of syn- dicated'cdumnist that "pro- WestomjArab:l«ader8",;are' saying privately that If brad does not soon agree to withdraw firom the Sinai, the Egytitian govemment "may come under the eventual political control of Moscow as the price for continued
Mediterranean coast. The ugly inference is that if this happens, Israel will be responsible for Soviet ex¬ tension of' power in the Levant.
llie State Department scoffs at these views. This being budget season in Washington, a -^ high Department source ob¬ served, a Soviet naval scare would help the Navy con¬ vince Congress of its requirements for hardware and funds. Besides, he ad¬ ded, if the Israelis did leave the Sinai who would push the Russians out of Egypt? One New  York  Kremltaidlogist
 ^says this is the "critical
con-^ period of decision-making" in the Kremlin in preparation for the~ first Cnnmimist Party Congress since 1966 on Mardi 30. Iherdore, he warned, "A rductant White House is bemg urged by tiie State D^iartin^t, CIA and out¬ side ' '^Soviet - analysts- hicluding some.ui tfae Soviet Embassy to send a new signal to the Moscow s^ufitmit^toi influence a dedsion there tm Russia's national priorities in the 1970's.

Even'ta tfais topsy-turvy world, it appears strange tbat - Party Secretary Brezhnev and Premier Kosygui would look for fadp from old Communist^iunter Nixon and tbe CIA to save them from tbe dutches of tbe Red Army. What tbis' does'
