"The minimum price for con¬ tinued United States grain ship¬ ments to Nasser," said Congress¬ man Bolton, "should include Egypt¬ ian withdrawal from Yemen, guar¬ antees against continued Egyptian development of a ground-to-ground missile capacity- which would jeop¬ ardize the security  of Israel  and
other Near Eastern nations, an end to Egyptian air attacks on Saudi Arabian targets t>Ordering Yemen, the halting of Egyptian efforts to evict the United Slates from air bases located in Libya and Saudi Arabia, and guarantees against fur¬ ther interference by Nasser in the Cyprus crisis."
In a related development, the State Department said that the Administration "fuUy subscribes to the principle enunciated in the re¬ port on the Communittee on For¬ eign Affairs on August 8, 1963 that economic assistance in the Near East should be administered so as to discourage conflict and promote stabihty."
The Department's views were made known by Robert E. Lee, Acting Assistant Secretary of State for Congressional Relations, in a letter to Rep. Leonard Farbstein, New York Democrat, the only Jew;- ish member ot the Foreign Affairs Committee.
