Arab opposition to talks mounting
BEIRUT, Lebanon (UPI)—Syrian Foreign Minister Abdel Halim Khadam flew to the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.) yesterday to cement Arab opposition to a U.S. Israeli working paper for reconvening the Geneva Middle East peace talks.
Both Khadam and Palestinian guerrilla leader Yasser Arafat have already rejected the plan and indicated a new Arab-Israeli war was possible.
Khadam adrived in Abu Dhabi, capital of the U.A.E., after brief visits to Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. He was to later visit Qatar and Bahrain.

He told reporters in Abu Dhabi he was delivering a message from Syrian President Hafez Assad on the working paper, which
ignores Arab and Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) demands for PLO participation at peace talks and establishment of a Palestinian state.
"We should all work to reinforce Arab solidarity and mobilize our capabilities against the common (Israeli) enemy," khaafat said. "If this is called rejection, you must be bell."
*As long as the (Israeli) occupation of
the land continues, war is a
certainly a responsibility.*
In Kuwait Sunday, Khadram told reporters the working paper was unac-

in a speech in Cairo, Egyptian President Anwar Sadat accused Israel of obstructing Middle East peace efforts and warned that world peace is at stake.

Sadat also reiterated Arab demands that the Palestine Liberation Organization participate in peace talks between the Arabs and the Israelis in Geneva.
"Egypt seeks peace but if it is not realized, then fighting will become imperative," Sadr said in a speech delivered by state Minister Hamed Mahmoud in Suez City.
"We will cut her down to size," he said,
CAIRO (UPI)—President Anwar Sadat said yesterday that Egypt is prepared to teach Israel a cruel lesson and cut her down to size in another Middle East war.
Egypt ready to harm Israel, Sadat says
"We have been able to isolate Israel and we are continuing to clip the (Israeli) nails which have been clawing at the hopes for peace," he said. "All rational people in the world now believe it is no longer a question of Middle East peace but of world peace."
"and rid her of the vanity that occasionally turns the heads of her leaders.
'THE WHOLE WORLD knows we are not ready to bargain with Israel's withdrawal from all Arab territories captured in the June (1867) war.
"Moreover, the objectives of setting up an independent Palestinian state and ensuring the right of the Palestinians to return to their homeland determine their destiny cannot be renounced."
"We are ready to go to the Geneva Conference to scrutinize the role of any of the concerned parties."
"But we cannot allow anybody to undermine our achievements or the achievements of the Palestinian people, who have chosen the Palestine Liberation Organization as the tool of their struggle and their official spokesman."
Arafat's rejection came in a speech to graduating Palestinian guerrilla trainees.
Committee to compromise on energy standards, aid
WASHINGTON (UPD) — A House-Senate conference committee agreed yesterday on compromise legislation requiring efficiency standards for 13 home appliances and providing almost $1.3 billion to weatherboard hospitals, hospitals and homes of poor families.
They also tentatively agreed to let citizens sue appliance makers who violate the standards or the federal government if it fails to enforce them.
In moves designed to give force to appliance standards, conference members decided the government must replace its present efficiency standards with mandatory energy use ceiling within 30 months of passage of the new energy law.
The standards would apply to new refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers, clothes washers, cloth dryers, water heaters, room air conditioners, space heaters, television set screens, ranges, refrigerators, dehumidifiers, central air conditioning units and home furnaces.
Besides the appliance efficiency standards, the panel approved two major
IT WAS the most productive day yet in the committee's efforts to put together an energy plan acceptable to President Carter and both houses of Congress.
- One is a $200 million plan to help states schools and hospitals by providing money under a formula taken into account climate, fuel supply and special hardships.

Wiley case...
"Let (Israel) Foreign Minister Moshe) Dayan meet with (Secretary of State Cyrus) Vance, Arafat told the trainees Sunday." Let them compare. Or say that these pieces of paper through which they want to impose peace on our Arab nation shall not pass.
"I don't know if it would affect us that conference standings but in the case of it, we will be there," he said.
Timmons also said the situation was disturbing because of the hundreds of college athletes who could not receive scholarships until the court made its decision.
"Right now it doesn't hurt Clifford",
Timmons said. "But the people who have
the same rating index as he does are waiting
for the court's decision."

the working paper to provide for FLO participation in peace talks and for discussion of substantive issues, such as full Israeli withdrawal from occupied Arab territory.
Wing said the case would be argued on the basis of the equal protection and supremacy doctrine.
Sunday Wing requested and received preliminary approval for a $504 allocation from the Student Senate to cover the transportation costs to Denver. The full Senate will rule on the allocation recommendation tomorrow.
"We interpret the clauses to mean that the federal program says Wiley is entitled to a BEOG and this shouldn't be made inefficial." He should mention the athletic scholarship." Wing said.
Some other expenses will be paid by the Kansas Civil Liberties Union, Wing said.
THE LEGAL AID society was allocated a similar amount by the Student Senate last year but returned the funds to the Senate Court of Appels did not schedule the case.
"We've now spent a year and a half waiting and we have no idea of when exactly the case will come up." Wing said. "But, we hope it soon."
The other program would set up $355 million in grants that could give each poor family up to $800 through 1980 to insulate and weatherstrip homes.
Homeowners would be eligible for the program if their incomes exceeded the poverty income level—now $5,850 a year—by no more than 25 per cent.
WHILE THE Senate and the House both took Veterans Day off, Rep. Harley Staggers, K-Wa., chairman of the conference panel, opened the session with a call for his colleagues to abandon the feasting at restaurants that allowed their progress last week.
For the most part, they followed his wishes.
At one point, however, progress bogged down in sharp debate over how long each state should get to come up with a concession package for $200 million weatherproofing program.
"What I'm concerned about is we're going on here 'n nitpicking on little things'" He added. "Jacson, D-Wash. We'll never get through, even by Christmas. We look ridiculous."
Replied Rep. John Dingel. D-Mich. "I'm prepared to sit here until the snow files to me."
THE PROGRAM for schools and hospitals was based primarily on House recommendations. Senators wanted to divide money among the states according to position. House members successfully argued that fuel availability was more important.
The issue was resolved when members settled on a 240-day maximum, including 60 days for federal approval of conservation plans submitted by the states.
Conferences also agreed to require energy audits of all schools and hospitals before they got funds, and they decided each state would pay for the training at a maximum $9 million under the program.
