"My hope is that if we can continue to deal more con¬ cretely with the specifics, we will find it possible to further narrow these differences, and isolate those key issues where it is impossible to nar¬ row the gap." Israeli Premier Mena¬ chem Begin, on the other hand, called his two days of talks with Vance "ex¬ cellent."

The two housing agencies approved.

Williamsburg Jews testified in the trial that followed be¬ fore Judge Charles Tenney that they would not accept apartments as a 25 percent minority in the housing pro¬ jects. Tenney halted rentals last •Dec. 23, describing the allo¬ cation plan as vague and or¬ dering all parties to come up with a more clear-cut plan to conform with the ethnic /■ make-up of the community. The attorney said that between 60 and 75 minority families had moved in by the time Tenney issued his stay but that he did not order their eviction. After more legal maneuverings by agen¬ cies for the minorities, serious negotiations began about three months ago which ended in agreement on a consent degree and a stipulation by Tenney lifting his stay on rentals, permit¬ ting renewal of apartment ' allocations' on the basis of the 51-49 formula, which will give Williamsburg Jews about 250 apartments. Kaszovitz said UJO offi¬ cials saw no problems as the allocation was resumed in the now completed six buildings.

TEL AVIV (WNS) — Defense Minister Ezer Weiz¬ man said the IL 1.4 billion cut in Israel's defense bud¬ get will not harm the army's development and pre¬ paredness. He said that Chief of Staff. Gen. Mordechai Gur, who had earlier indicated it woud, agrees with the cuts.

WASHINGTON (WNS) — Two Congressmen have charged that the Carter Administration's proposal to sell 60 F-15 warplanes and related equipment to Saudi Arabia will threaten the "Fragile Balance of power" in the Middle East, In a letter to President Carter, Reps.
