JERUSALEM (WNS) -
The Cabinet unanimously
backed Israeli Premier
Menachem Begin and his
Middle East policy March 26
in its first session after his
return from Washington. A
cabinet communique issued
after the four-hojur session
said the Cabinet unanimously approved the reports by
Begin and Foreign Minister
Moshe Dayan on their "presentation of the Israeli position in the talks with President Carter." The communique stressed that the Cabinet
still considers Begin's peace
plan a "fair basis" for negotiations with Egypt. Cabinet
Secretary Aryeh Naor said
there was no change in the
situation in which Begin said
upon returning from the
United States that there
were certain demands by the
U.S. that were unacceptable
to Israel. But Naor stressed
the communique was "without any negatives" and Israel now wanted Egypt to
make   counter-proposals.
Naor said changes in the Israeli plan would only come if
and when substantive negotiations were entered upon.
He said the Cabinet will take
a "number of initiatives" designed to "advance the re-f
sumption of negotiations
with Egypt." Naor said that
Defense Minister Ezer Weiz-
man's call for a government
of unity and his criticism

had a talk about this private-

than 1,000 supporters of the United Jewish Fund who
have not yet made their 1978 commitment.
