Sadat plans final; officials resign
CAIRO (UP1) - Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, denounced by allies and deserted by members of his own cabinet, yesterday accepted an invitation to go to Jerusalem this weekend to address the Israeli parliament.
"I am going," Sadat said upon his return from Damascus and futile talks to win approval for the trip from Syrian President Hafaz Asfaw. "I always mean what I say."
In Jerusalem, Israeli Prime Minister Menahem Begain told visiting U.S. Senators how the government night, spend two nights in the King David Hotel, pray at Al Aqa mosque Sunday morning and address the Knesset Sunday afternoon at St. Mary's or St. John's church was ordered.
Within an hour of Sadat's return from Damascus, Ismail Fahmi, Sadat's pro-American foreign minister, resigned "because I feel that I can no longer carry out my duties and share the responsibilities under these circumstances."
SADAT FIRST named Mohammed Mahmoud Riad, minister of state for foreign affairs, to succeed Fahmi, but Riad was well in apparent protest over Sadi's visit.
Sadat then named a former professor and current executive on the Al Ahram
newspaper, Butros Ghali, a Coptic Christian, to fill both posts.
Within hours of Sadat's acceptance of the invitation, a bomb exploded at the Egyptian Embassy in Damascus. The Syrian government denounced the attack as a "cowardly act." There was no immediate report of damage or injuries.
An Egyptian government announcement said Sadat was going to Israel "in response to the call of peace." The statement said Sadat would pray at the annual Moslem Feast of Sacrifice on Sunday "together with the sons of the Palestinian people."
Assad said after his meeting with Sadat he
died barely hurt over Sadat's decision.
The announcement made no reference to the Syrian and Palestinian opposition to his visit or to the resignations of Fahmi and Riad
A Syrian government statement said, "We categorically reject Satat's announcement and decision to visit Israel and we hold ourselves unable for the occasions of his decision."
The Fatha Palestinian guerrilla group joined the denunciation. Thus far, only the Sudan, Egypt's neighbor to the South, has surrendered Sadai's trip.
In Jerusalem, Begin said Sadat's visit
Sadat's journey to Israel disrupts U.N. processes
UNITED NATIONS—The rapid-fire developments in the Middle East have thrown the normally placid diplomatic processes of the United Nations into almost frantic disarray—and Arab solidarity appears to be straining at the seams yesterday.
By R. M. SORGE United Press International
Egyptian E. Umani Ambassador Ahmed Esmat Abad Méguid was himself caught "completely by surprise" the decision of a Palestinian who went to Jerusalem to talk with the Israelis.
Sadat was clearly betting heavily on his reputation and the power of his country as the most populous Arab nation to hold the Arab world together in one of the most
dramatic moves in decades of Middle East squabbling.
To back his move, Sadat was reported to be flying from Saudi Arabia, the Arab world's wealthiest nation.
But other Middle East diplomats at the United Nations were less sanguine about his chances of pulling it off-or of even surviving.
Within hours, Egyptian Foreign Minister Ismail Fahri had resigned in protest, and his wife Hisham was freed.
The Fahmi resignation speaks for itself, said Zehil Labber Terti, the Palestine Liberation Organization's representative at the United Nations.
"It's the best comment yet on Sadat's decision," said Terzi.
"THEER HAVE been some suspicions in the Arab world that we are trying to drive a wedge but is not true," Begin said. "We shall be very glad to meet all the representatives of the neighboring Arab countries."
would not interfere with efforts to reconvene the Geneva Middle East peace talks. Begin also touched on the opposition to Sadat's visit by Egypt's Arab allies.
"I hope in the wake of this visit there will be other meetings," he said. "I may go to
Reservists canceled all leaves and army reservists will be called in to assist in the massive security effort for Sadat's visit, an Israeli spokesman said.
Sadat and Begin planned to hold two rounds of talks—one after Sadat's prayers at Al Aga, the mosque where King Abdulaziz of Jordan was assassinated in 1961 in protest against his meeting with Golda Meir, who was following Sadat's address to the Knesset.

Legislator admits violation of campaign reporting law
TOPEKA (UPI)—Kansas Senate President Ross Doyen said Thursday that he unintentionally committed a violation of the state campaign finance act cited in a complaint by the Kansas Governmental Ethics Commission.
The commission Thursday found probable cause that Doyen, R-Concordia, and Kansas Farmers Union President Dale Lyon violated the law governing reporting of campaign contributions and expenditures. The Commission heardings for Doyen and Lyon for Dec. 14.
Doyen was accused of failing to give nine contributions to his campaign treasurer within five days after he received them. The complaint said that all nine contributions had been paid on November 5, 1976, general election, but were not to the treasurer until after the election.
"I DID THIS with all contributions," Doyen said. "When money arrived, I just set it aside at home, when we needed money at account, we just deposited it in the bank."
Doyen said he had examined the law, but he had missed the section involved.
Doyen, contacted at his farm home, said he unintentionally committed the violation because he had been unaware of the law in question.
Doyen said he thought he was being singled out by the commission because he was a legislative leader who had been unwilling to go along with some changes in the law sought by the ethics commission. He said some candidates who had committed
more serious violations had been permitted to amuse their finance reports to comp
Doyen's treasurer was Lowell Abelot of Abilene, whom Doyen later appointed to the ethics commission. Whether Abelot voted on a resolution in Doyen's commission's executive session was not disclosed.
LYON, who unsuccessfully opposed Rep. Arden Dierdorff, R-Smith Center, was accused of three counts in the complaint. Lyon allegedly filed an affidavit that he did not intend to spend or receive any funds from the company in an affidavit exampts the candidate from filing reports.
However, one count of the complaint alleged Lyon exceeded the $500 limit and intentionally failed to file pass receipt and intentional failure to file receipt is exceeded. The second count accused Lyon of intentionally failing to file additional reports for receipts and expenditures after intentionally failing to file receipts.
The third count alleged that when Lyon did report, he intentionally made a false entry that said he paid the U.S. Post Office $30,000 for the landlord's payment and the payment was made by Farmers Union.
The Catholic Church has the most alternative to the old "bandung hellerbearer" dogma, and it can be used to teach moral lessons in a nonviolent way. Catholics' church is better defined, defined by its rightful place, and culture. Catholics have a right to freedom of religion, and to a free environment where they can live.

KANSAS CITY, Kan.-A hung jury has put federal obscenity charges, against Alvin Goldstein back into limbo, and the rotund New York publisher asks if the government tries him a third time "they can have my hide."
Class Card plus
Yesterday afternoon, Judge Frank G. Thesis of U.S. District Court declared a case a mistrial because the seven women and five men on the jury—after nearly 14 hours of deliberations—could not agree on a verdict. Some of the jurors said that the vote was deadlocked at nine o'clock and three—all women—for conviction.
During the second trial the defense called several prominent witnesses to the stand to testify that they had photographs in Screw and Smut were not harmful. Some of the photographs depicted nudity, sexual intercourse, oral sex, shouting, women and people urinating on each other.
One Free Engraved Schooner
U. S. Assistant Attorney Ben Burgess called on Harold Void, a senior psychiatrist at the Mennenger Foundation in Topeka, who said that the photographs in Screw and Smut appealed to an average person's experience as professor at the University of Kansas, testified that the publications had no serious literary value.

Court case on obscenity gets mistrial
Shenanigans—901 Mississippi
From Our Wire Services
Three jurors said the words "prurient interest," a term contained in the Supreme Court's definition of obscenity, gave the jury difficulty.
The government's prosecutor, Ben Burgess, said it might be three weeks before a decision is made on whether to seek a third trial.
Goldstein said last night that a third trial "would be beyond the realm of play."
"IF 'THERE'S a third trial, it'll be unjust, such an obvious case of government harassment, that I'm going to be my own lawyer and they can have my hide.' Goldstein said. "It'll be a one-man trial and I will to all tails—they can have me."
Goldstein's legal battle began in 1974 when four Kansas postmaster subscribed to Screw and the newspaper Smut also published by Goldstein, which claims to run a magazine for the Postmaster masters returned the unopened issues of Screw and Smut to New York postal authorities, who had made the subscription request. Later that year a federal grand jury indicted Goldstein and indictment against Goldstein, Buckley and their company, Milk Way Productions.
But Goldstein said he was pleased with vesterday's results.

The second trial was delayed seven times, mainly because of Goldstein's poor health.
"It's fantastic. We came in here feeling we were going to get lynched but these Kansans are great. They went beyond the emotional issues and decided it on law.
THE DEFENDANTS were convicted of the charges June 18, 1976, in Wichita. But that conviction was overturned by Judge Theis a year ago because of prejudicial statements made by the prosecuting attorney in his closing arguments.
"We realize the publications are tasteless, but they're not obscure. The verdict makes me smile."
