Revival Of Talks Sought Blockade Halts 2 Ships BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) Egyptian President Ganial Abdel Nasser was reported sympathetic today to U.N. Secretary-General Tlmnt's peacs proposals, including revival of the Egyptian-Israeli Armistice Commission to put a brake on the mounting crisis in the Middle East. In other peace efforts, tits United States pressed the Soviet Union to join America, Franca and Britain both within and outside the United Nations to try to prevent war in the Middle East.

Britain asked- the Soviets, who are backing the Arabs, to use their influence to restrain Egypt and Syria. President Johnson flew to Canada today to discuss the crisis with Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson. STUMBLING BLOCK A major stumbling block to easing tensions was Egypt's proclaimed blockade of Israeli shipping to and from its southern port of Elath, on the Gulf of Aqaba, its link to Africa, Asia and Iranian oil. Despite Nasser's reported willingness to "facilitate" Tlmnt's peace mission, if was db'iibted that he wouhj lift the blockade, which Israel has said would not permit.

However, there was no word it any Israeli attempt to challenge the Egyptian guns and patrol boats, guarding qf.Tirun, the entrance from the Red- Sea into the gulf.
