8 The Telegram Columbus, Nebraska Thursday, August 6, WO Rogers' peace plan for Middle East 1 By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign News Analyst The' beauty ot Secretary of S(ate William P. Rogers' peace plan for the Middle East was that actually it was no plan at all. It did not require that tlie Arabs sit down for direct negotiations with the Israelis, something they have said they will never do. And it did not require immediate Israeli sur- of lands seized during the June 19C7 Israeli-Arab War. Therefore, asking nothing from either side, it-Became the more difficult to refuse.

Seeks Cease-fire Only All it asked was a three- month cease-fire, with Ihe unstated understanding that neither side would use it to attain military advantage, nnd indirect negotiations to be carried on through United Nations representative Gunnar V. Jarring. It was in October, I9C9, that the United States for the first time publicly enunciated its proposed terms for a Mideast peace, terms far more specific than the generalized initiative undertaken by the U.S. secreta- ry ot state last June. Presuma- bly, the terms stated then remain (lie U.S.

These negotia- tions could be carried out under procedures employed in 1949 under the Rhodes Formula of indirect talks Ihroygh Jarring. --Jerusalem to become a unified city open to all faiths and nationalities. Presumably this would mean some' kind of international control.

--Special safeguards for the area of Sharm El Sheikh-- which controls access to the Gulf of Aqaba and which was the trigger of the 1967 War, and demilitarized zones in the Sinai Desert. Proposal Rejected Presumably, because it was unacceptable to President Ga- in al Abdel Nasser of the United Arab Republic, the Soviets in December turned it down. Both the United States and Russia profess to base their various proposals on the United Nations Resolution of Novem- ber, That resolution called for Israeli withdrawal from all territory taken in the 1967 Six- Day War, recognized the right of-all Middle East countries to secure the recognized bounda-. ries, freedom of navigation through international water- ways in the area, a just setilement of the refugee problem and a guarantee of territorial inviolability through measures including establish- ment of demilitarized zones. But there is another side to.

the problem, which, ignored for more than 20 years, no longer can be ignored. This is the question of the Palestinian refugees whose plight has been brought forcibly to world attention by the militant Fcdayeen. There can be no Mideast peace until an answer is found to the future of the refugees.

LOS ANGELES' (UPI) Charles Mansion's ploy to cause a- mistrial -by displaying newspaper headline to the jury didn't work, so his a different tactic As the jury filed after Superior Court Judge Charles Older ordered the Sharon.Tate trial to proceed, the female-defendants, their long hair streaming down their backs and costumed identically in jail denims, rose and chanted irr unison: "President Nixon says were euilly, so why go on with the Frial?" "Sit down, Older barked. Jury Didn't Hear The jurors appeared not to have heard or understood the sing-song efforts, which the women--Leslie van llouteii, Susan Atkins and Patricia Krcnwinkcl-apparenlly had re- hearsed during a brief recess.

Chief defense lawyer; Paul Fitzgerald called for a mistrial, contending that Nixon's re- marks "could not help but influence "subscon- sciously, subliminaly, or even Deputy District Attorney Aaron Stovitz argued angrily that "if there was judicial error, Mr. Manson invited that "older, holing "the time has come to put Ihis in'Us proper perspective." said the key issue was whether the jury is still caoable of reaching an imrjar- lial verdict.

Hardin asks for quick passage of farm bill with $55,000 lid WASHINGTON (UPI) --Agri- culture Secretary Clifford M. Hardin called today for quick Senate approval of a House- passed farm bill that includes a per crop lid on government payments to big producers of cotton, wheat and feed grains. Some such produ- cers now get $1 million and more annually. In the House, which passed the bill Wednesday night by a surprisingly wide 212 to 171 margin after beating back attempts to set the payment ceiling at $20,000 per crop, there were promises of new- campaigns later for a limit. Rep.

Paul Findley, sponsor, of -the limit amendment which lost by a 134 to 161 nonrecord vote, predicted the Senate would adopt the administration backed $55,000 figure and called it "a gain." At present, there is no limit on farm payments. Five big farms in 1969 got payments of $1 million or more, and one California farm collected over $4 million. Findley said''if. the House passes a pending reform bill which would allow the names of members to be recorded on Huntley tells Nixon he is "sorry" WASHINGTON (UP!) --For- mer newscaster Chet Huntley has told President Nixon he is sorry and "terribly embar- rassed" about remarks attribut- ed to him in a recent issue of Life magazine. Uuntley wrote a letter to Nixon on July 14, shortly after Life quoted the ex-newsman as saying of the President: "I've seen him under many condi- tions.

The shallowness of the man overwhelms me; the fact that he is President frightens me." The letter, a copy of which was obtained by UPI, said: "My dear Mr. President; I want you to know that I am terribly embarrassed about some remarks attributed to me in the current issue of Life magazine. How the reporter had the audacity to make me responsible for the alleged statements is something 1 cannot understand. I just hope you know me well enough to appreciate that the statements do not sound like me and that I am more sorry about them than you will ever know. Sincerely, Chet Huntley" votes currently taken by simple head count, "we'll have the limit into law in short order." Both Findley and Rep.

Silvio 0. Conic, another crusader for the lower payment ceiling, said their efforts might be renewed when the House prepares to hold a conference with the Senate on an agricultural, appropriation bill, 'ihe Senate version of that bill contains a $20,000 per farm payment ceiling.
