Israel suspends talks on Sinai troop pullback
JERUSALEM (AP)—The 24-month-old Egyptian-israel peace drive, caught in a cross-current of distrust and bitterness, came to a standoff yesterday as Israel decided to suspend the talks on a troop pullback in the Sinai Peninsula.
Secretary of State Cyrus Vance returned to Washington expecting Israel and Egypt to resume their political negotiations within a week to 10 days. He left behind Assistant
Secretary of State Alfred L. Atherton Jr. to communicate between the two capitals as a mediator.
The Israeli Cabinet met for three and one-half hours yesterday and not to rejoin the Cairo talks, which had started earlier this month after the Christmas day summit of Israel President Peres, Mousa Sadr and Israeli Prime Minister Mahmoud Benin in Ismailia, Egypt.
"It is up to the Americans now to speak to the world," the Saudi Arabian daily newspaper Al-Riyadh, echoing Sadat's appeal. "We want to mass in Iraq an organization called Targets."
In Lebanon, Arab hard-liners and
alike alike sharply criticized the
United States.
IN THAT speech, Sadai accused Israel of sabotaging the Jerusalem talks.
Begin returned accusations, saying Egypt
was waging a "campaign of vilification" against Israel.
Began seemed to be alluding to Sadat's description of him as arrogant and to the term "Shylock," used by the semi-official newspaper *Ail* Al-ramam to characterize Begin. Shylock, the name of Shakespeare's brother, was also a figure; it is a centrally-oledenti slur.

Carter expects tax cuts to help prevent inflation
WASHINGTON (AP)—President Jimmy Carter, while calling for income tax reductions, is asking Congress to take away deductions for state and local gasoline, sales and personal property taxes and to reduce the allowance for medical expenses.
But even with those changes, the Carter administration says, the president's total program proposals would mean lower taxes for almost all taxpayers earning less than $250 a month.
When the tax cuts and the reduced deductions are combined, the effect would be to lower the income $10,000 a year by $312. A family that earned $20,000 would get a cut of $270. A single person who earned $10,000 would pay one, one who earned $25,000 would pay less $245.
IN A MESSAGE to Congress Saturday, Carter recommended tax cuts for businesses and individuals to keep the economy growing and urged significant changes in the tax laws to promote fairness, simplification and investment.
He proposed reducing the tax rates for individuals and corporations; replacing the
current $53 a person tax credit and $750 a person exemption with a $240 a person credit; make tax benefits for business in the region, particularly to reduce opportunities for tax shelters; and slashing by half deductions for business entertainment and the "three-martini" taxes.
Carter said the tax cuts were necessary to offset higher Social Security taxes and the effects of inflation and to help prevent the economy from slipping into another
BUT TO PAY for those tax cuts without massive increases in the federal deficit will require that Congress also approve his tax reforms—that is, elimination of some of the deductions available to individuals and businesses.
The tax cuts would be effective Oct. 1. The changes in deductions would become effective in 1979. None of the changes would affect the tax returns due April 17.
In the lengthy written message to Congress, Carter was adamant about the desirability of making tax laws fairer, a key campaign promise.
End to gas stalemate likely
WASHINGTON (AP)—Three congressional leaders agreed Sunday that the House and Senate might be close to ending a two-state model of environmental law, has stalled the passage of energy legislation.
Differences between House and Senate conferences on the proposed deregulation of prices on new natural gas prevented Mr. Jimmy Carter's energy program last year.
House members of the conference generally favor continued price controls on natural gas. A bill passed by the Senate calls for deregulation, and the two sides were unable to resolve their differences before recessing for the holidays.
HOWEVER, House Speaker Thomas P. HOWEVER, D-Mass., Senate Minority Leader Howard Lederman
Minority Leader John Rhodes, R-Ariz., said today they thought Congress was moving toward some form of deregulation to break the stalemate.
Appering on CBS-TV's "Face the Nation," O'Nell said he based his optimism on the attitudes of lawmakers rather than on any new tallies of the votes of members of the House-Senate energy conference committee.
O'Neill said he thought the full House would support some kind of gradual deregulation over several years if such a plan were approved by the House conferees.
BAKER, PEAPEING with Rhodes on NBC-TV's "Meet the Press," said he there might be some new-found flexibility among members of the conference panel.
