WASHINGTON (JTA)-
The United. States worked
strenuously this weekend to
bring the Egyptian-Israeli
peace treaty negotiations
back on the track toward
early completion. But the
West Bank settlements issue
continued to divert attention
from the treaty itself.
Vlii its efforts to assist
Egyptian President Anwar
Sadat to indicate to other
Arab leaders that he is supporting the Palestinians and
Jordan, the Carter Administration is taking the position
that Israel is violating the
spirit of the Camp David accords."- /.'.■'
In addition, the U.S. is
making the pont that Harold
Saunders, the Assistant
Secretary of State for Middle
East and South Asian Affairs, who is alleged by
Israelis as having made
promises to Jordan, Saudi
Arabia and the Palestinians
last week that Israeli settlements on ^her West Bank
would be remove^ ultimately just as they are to be removed from the Sinai, was
within "the scope" of the
Camp David agreement.
In his statement Thursday
severly rebuking Israel's
Cabinet for announcing it
would "thicken" the existing
Jewish settlements on the
West Bank,' Secretary of
State Cyrus Vance said the
U.S. would "refrain" from
saying any. more about the
issue until, the U.S. had
heard from Israeli Premier
Menachem Begin. Neverthe-
Israel Praised For
Aid In Lebanon
SANTIAGO, Chile (JTA)-
Charles Malik, the Lebanese
diplomat who had served a
term as president of the
United Nations General Assembly, said that Israel was
helping the Lebanese Christians for both moral and political reasons.
He spoke at a press conference here during the
World Congress of Lebanese
Communities, which was attended by some 500 persons
earlier this month. The congress demanded the immediate withdrawal of the
Syrian army from Lebanon.
Malik said Israel was help-
ing the Christians because it
wanted to protect its
boundaries from Syria and
because the Jews had ex-.
perience with suffering for
centuries and identified wjlh
a minority that was facing,
extinction.    .
less, by background briefings and leaks the media has
been emphasizing, with attribution to U.S. sources,
that Israel is to blame for the
temporary lapse in the Blair
House negotiations.
No comment was forthcoming   immediately   in
Washington on Begin's reply
to a message from President
Carter regarding the settlements.- Meanwhile, little attention is being given to the
Carter compromise with
Begin at Camp David that
Israel could extend its exist-

Schindler Urges The State
Dept. To Cool The Rhetoric
PITTSBURGH (JTA}-
Rabbi Alexander M. Schindler, president of the Union of
American Hebrew Congregations (UAHC) called on
the State Department last
night to "cool the rhetoric"
and let Egypt and Israel

agreement "without further
American pronouncements
that could upset the delicate
balance."    ;
Schindler, addressing the
annual convention of the Reform Synagogue group's
Pennsylvania region, commented on a charge by
