Sadat Apparently Agrees
With Begin On 3 Months
Freeze For Settlements
WASHINGTON (WNS)-
Egyptian President Anwar
Sadat apparently agrees
with Israeli Premier Menachem Begin that the freeze
on new Jewish settlements
on the West Bank is only for
the three-month period during which an Israeli-
Egyptian peace agreement
is negotiated. President
Carter has maintained that
the freeze is for at least five
years pending determination
of the future of the area.
"The freezing of the settlements is through the next
three months," Sadat told
Arab reporters. "By . that
time we shall have concluded the peace settlements." Sadat said that
Egypt and the United States
are in agreement that the
Israeli settlements are illegal. He said he has advised
that the settlement issue
should be handled by avoiding polemics and leaving the
matter "on the table for
negotiations" since it is a
"delicate" issue*

NEW YORK (WNS)—
Israeli Foreign Minister
Moshe Dayan arrived here
Oct. 5 to prepare for the
Egyptian-Israeli peace talks
which were scheduled to
' beginin Washington right
after Yom Kippur. President
Carter suggested the
Washington site when the
Israelis and Egyptians '
bogged down in' a dispute
with Egypt demanding the
talks be held in Ismailia and
Israel arguing that they
should alternate between
Ismailia and Beersheba.
Before going to Washington,
Dayan is scheduled to address the United Nations
General Assembly Oct. 9.
In an address to the
Assembly Sept. 29, Secretary of State Cyrus Vance
urged "other interested
parties" in the Middle East
to join Egypt in negotiating
with Israel "without delay."
Vance stressed that the
United State is "determined
to achieve a fair and just set-

While the Community Relations Committee of the Columbus Jewish Federation is
cautiously optimistic about
the outcome of the Camp
David Summit and its implications for peace in the
Middle East, the CRC believes that there are still
many difficult issues that remain to be negotiated among
the parties.
During the next three critical months following the
Camp David Summit, the
CRC will undertake a community-wide subscription
campaign on behalf of its
Telegram Bank so that the
local Jewish community
may be better prepared to
mobilize public opinion in
the event of any emergency,
according to Marvin L.
Glassman, CRC chairman.
"The quick mobilization of
public opinion," said Marvin
Glassman, ."has played an
essentia] role in influencing
specific action and general
policies regarding appeals
on behalf of Israel, Soviet
Jewry, and other issues of
concern to the Jewish community both at home and
overseas.
"Judicious use of cables
and mailgrams may tip the
balance at critical moments.
We know,- for example, that
public opinion experts assert
that one telegram is given
the weight of 25 letters. In
order to make your voice
heard, we invite members of
our community and their or
ganizations to become subscribers to the CRC Telegram Bank," urged Mr.
Glassman.
By completing an authorization form that is available,
from the Columbus Jewish
Federation, individuals and
organizations may authorize
the Community Relations
Committee to send in their
name up to $10 of mailgrams
and cables a year to the
President, Senators, Congressmen, and other public
officials and world leaders
whenever emergencies arise
of concern to the Jewish
community. A copy of every
message will be mailed by
the CRC to all subscribers
immediately after it is sent.
For further information
.and requests for Telegram
Bank authorization forms,
please contact Allan Eitan,
CRC Director, at the Columbus Jewish Federation (237-
7686).
"Consider your opinion
your vote," said Mr. Glass-
. man. "Legislators and other
public officials understand
the written ballot best and
your written message provides documentation pf your
opinion as a voter and a concerned citizen. Telephone
calls provide no documented
record.

Glassman.
tlement of the Middle East
question in all its parts, and
we hope that the people of
the Middle East will agree
that it is imperative to begin
the negotiating process
now—and not to stand still
until every last issue is resolved." Vance noted that
"As negotiations are pursued on the basis of the
Camp David framework, a
dynamic process will be set
in motion that can profoundly change attitudes on the
issues that remain to be resolved." Vance pointed out
that the accords say that a
"negotiated settlement must
recognize the legitimate
rights of the Palestinian
people" and he said the
Camp David agreements
"make a solid start toward
achieving these goals for the
Palestinians."
But King Hussein of
Jordan said Oct. 1 that he
wants clarification of a long
list' of questions before
Jordan, decides whether to
participate in the negotiations!. He said on €BS-TV's
"Face the Nation" that he
has submitted such a list to
the U.S. Hussein warned that
unless the Camp David talks
resulted in something more
than an Egyptian-Israeli
peace treaty there would be
widespread trouble in the
Mideast. On the West Bank
itself, more than' 100 major
figures, including most
mayors, met in East Jerusalem Oct. 1 to denounce the
Camp' David agreements
and to express support for
the Palestine Liberation Organization   and   the   Arab
rejectionist countries. They
particularly rejected the
provisions for local self-
government on the" West
Bank and the Gaza Strip.
However, Egyptian President Anwar Sadat was going
ahead with plans to negotiate with Israel and on Oct.
5 swore in what was labelled
Egypt's first peace Cabinet .
in 30 years. The new government is headed by Mustapha
Khalil as Premier. Khalil is
58-year-old    American-educated engineer. Sadat also
announced   that   the   War
Ministry has been renamed
Ministry of Defense.  Gen.
Mohammed  Gamassy,   the
War Minister and  former
commander-in-chief of the
Egyptian armed forces, has
been   named   a    military
advisor to Sadat and is expected to head the Egyptian
delegation at Camp David.
The new Defense Minster is
Lt.   Gen.   Kamal   Hassan,
former head of civilian intelligence. Sadat in an address
to the Egyptian Parliament
Oct.   2   praised ■ President
Carter for saving the Camp
David talks from collapsing.
He stressed that the U.S. will
continue to be a full partner
in the peace negotiations as
it was at the Camp David
summit. He denounced that
Arab critics of (he agreements, including the PLO.
and urged Syria and Jordan
to join in the negofiatins with
Israel based on the formula
agreed upon at Camp David.
"Now that we are at the
treshold of peace, the people
are calling on me to dedicate
