Despite the warm embraces Sadat and Begin have shared before the world, their private personal relationship has been a thorny thing, hampered by 30 years of hostility between their two nations. Aides close to Sadat have said the Egyptian has often been angered by Begin's insistence on detail while Sadat prefers to view Middle East issues in broad terms. Begin has often bridled at personal attacks against him often with an anti-Semitic overtone in the semiofficial Egyptian press. Their latest meeting was extended at the last minute from one day to three, prompting speculation they would try to capitalize on last week's procedural breakthrough in the Egyptian-Israeli negotiations to bring home-rule to the 1.1 million Palestinians on the occupied West Bank of the Jordan River and in the Gaza Strip.

U.S. mediator Robert Strauss, making his debut on the Middle East stage, persuaded the negotiators to put aside the polemics on the major issues that deadlocked the first three rounds of autonomy talks and focus instead on the mechanics of Palestinian autonomy. Neither Begin nor Sadat is directly involved in the self-government negotations though both are believed to be directing them from behind the scenes. ALEXANDRIA, Egypt (AP) Prime Minister Menachem Begin arrived in Egypt today for a three-day summit with President Anwar Sadat at this Mediterranean coastal resort, but both sides said they expect no major advance toward agreement on Palestinian autonomy. "I leave with an open heart and will do my utmost to strengthen our friendship so that talks between our countries will be fruitful," Begin said in a pre-departure interview with the Israeli newspaper Maariv.

One Israeli official said the latest summit was primarily a continuation of the dialogue that began in earnest after the two men signed their peace treaty in Washington on March 26. Others said the two leaders would discuss general subjects including the normalization of relations and the planned transfer to Egypt of the oil wells Israel developed in the Sinai. Begin's plane landed in Cairo where he was greeted by Vice President Hosni Mubarak and a delegation of Egyptian leaders. Later, he travels to Alexandria, 120 miles north to Cairo, and will pray at the synagogue here before meeting Sadat. The two former foes have met seven times starting with Sadat's momentous journey to Jerusalem in November 1977 that set the two nations on the road to peace.

"I don't think it will deal so much with details as with a general picture and discussions that will eventually lead to agreements," the Israeli said. A senior aide to the Egyptian Oil still spewing into Gulf of Mexico CIUDAD DEL CARMEN, Mexico (AP) The worst offshore oil well blowout in history is still spewing oil into the Gulf of Mexico more than a month after it exploded, and most experts say the fiery eruption will continue for at least two more months. The rogue well, Ixtoc 1 in oil-rich Campeche Bay, has defied repeated efforts by an international team of troubleshooters, including Mexican, American and European engineers. In the 37 days since it blew out, it is estimated to have spilled nearly 45 million gallons of crude oil. In two more months at that rate, the total loss would be more than 120 million gallons, or about 15 percent of the average amount consumed by the United States in one day.

Two relief wells should be finished in September. The engineers expect them to siphon off some of the gas pressure on Ixtoc 1, permitting the runaway to be plugged. U.S., Soviet agree to weapons ban treaty GENEVA, Switzerland (AP) The United States and the Soviet Union, living up to a commitment made at the Vienna summit last month, announced agreement today on a draft treaty to ban the use of radiological weapons. After two years of secret negotiations, the superpowers presented the 39-nation Geneva Disarmament Conference with identical, 13- article drafts in which they agreed "not to develop, produce, stockpile, otherwise acquire, possess or use radiological weapons." So far, neither nation has publicly acknowledged any attempt to develop radiological weapons, commonly defined as weapons that scatter radioactive material without producing a nuclear explosion. Theoretically, such weapons have been under discussion since the Korean War in the early 1950s when there was talk of building a "cobalt bomb" to lay an impassable belt of radiation across North Korea.

The new treaty would not cover atom, hydrogen or neutron bombs, which radiate lethal radioactive particles from a nucltar blast. American sources said the Soviets tried for some time to have the controversial neutron warhead included in the ban but the United States refused. COREZECTIOn send their families or by word of mouth from other prisoners who are freed. Shcharansky is reported weaving potato sacks by hand in Chistopol Prison 475 miles east of Moscow. He is said to be in poor health but maintaining the high spirits he managed to display during the final tense weeks before his arrest in March 1977.

There have been occasional reports that the government might agree to release him as it did Ginzburg, but there has been nothing official tending to confirm this. Or lov, a 55-year-old physicist, is reported working at a lathe in a labor colony. The work exhausts him to an unusual degree, informed sources say. But he is said to have aroused the respect of other prisoners by his personal concern for them and his sparring with camp officials over regulations. Meanwhile, outside prison walls, the dissident movement has weakened, at least for the time being.

The Helsinki group continues to exist in skeletal form and holds occasional meetings with Western reporters as it did when Ginzburg, Or lov and Shcharansky were active. But the remaining members do not have the vitality or strength of those now imprisoned. They barely keep alive what was once an energetic gathering and reporting of data on alleged repressions. One strong figure remains in the dissident movement, physicist Andrei D. Sakharov.

He is still free and active, perhaps, because of his international renown and possibly because of friends in high places in the Kremlin. He and his strong-willed wife, Yelena Bonner, continue to hold news conferences, to try to help dissidents and their families in need and to telephone reporters with news of arrests and trials. But in the last two months, Sakharov's health has causel concern among his friends and because of a mysterious "brain spasm" that caused dizziness and put him to bed for several days at the end of April. By SETH MYDANS MOSCOW (AP) A year after their convictions, Anatoly Shcharansky has headaches and eye trouble, Yuri Or lov is weakening from the strain of hard labor, Alexander Ginzburg is free in the United States, and the Soviet dissident movement is in poor health. The 1978 trials of the three men came after a crackdown on critics of the Soviet system stepped-up surveillance, harassment, arrests and trials that began at the start of 1977.

The climactic moment occurred at 4 p.m. last July 14 when Shcharansky, a 31-year-old Jewish activist, was convicted of espionage and sentenced to 13 years at hard labor after refusing to ask for mercy. Ginzburg, a charter member of the Helsinki human rights group, was sentenced the day before to eight years at hard labor. Or lov, the founder of the Helsinki group, had been sentenced the previous May 18 to seven years at hard labor and five years of Siberian exile for anti-Soviet agitation and propaganda. Last April, after nine months in a labor camp, Ginzburg was exiled to the United States in a prisoner exchange.

The three were the best-known of the imprisoned dissidents, and the United States and other Western governments protested their trials and convictions. But Amnesty International, the Western organization that monitors political prisoners around the world, counts a total of 321 human-rights activists in the Soviet Union who have been imprisoned, exiled to Siberia or given forced psychiatric treatment since the Soviet government and 34 others signed the Helsinki Accords in August 1975. Or lov and other dissidents organized the Helsinki group in May 1976 to publicize their government's violations of the human rights provisions of the accords. They became the chief target of the government crackdown. News about those imprisoned is scarce.

Boat offered to refugees Move by East Germany protested MOSCOW (AP) The United States, Britain and France have formally protested to the Soviet Union over the East German government's abolishment of one of the last symbols of four-power authority in East Berlin, the U.S. Embassy said today. The protest was delivered Monday by U.S. Ambassador Malcolm Toon, French Ambassador Henri Froment-Meurice and British Charge d'Affaires Brian Fall to Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Igor N. Zemskov, informed sources said.

The protest concerned an unanimous vote by the East German Peoples Chamber last month to end the appointment of its 66 East Berlin deputies by the East Berlin city council. The move obviously made with Moscow's approval, is regarded by the Western allies as the most serious breach to date of the 1971 four-power agreement on Berlin, sources said. The protest said East Germany had violated wartime and post-war agreements on Berlin including the 1971 accord, which the Sofiet Union signed. This agreement, the protest said, applied to the whole of Berlin and explicitly does not allow any of the powers which signed to make a unlateral change in the area. The Soviet position as outlined July 2 by the Communist Party newspaper Pravda is that the agreement applies only to West Berlin.

It charged the West German government with trying to divert attention from its own activities in Berlin by raising an outcry about the East German move. North Korea rejects call for negotiations TOKYO (AP) North Korea today rejected the proposal by Presidents Carter and Park Chung-hee that it join the United States and South Korea in negotiations. Instead it proposed separate negotiations with the two other governments. A statement broadcast by the North Korean Central News Agency said North Korea would meet with the United States to negotiate the withdrawal of U.S. troops from South Korea and the replacement of the Korean armistice agreement with a peace agreement.

It said it would meet with South Korea to negotiate the reunification of the Korean peninsula. It added that this and related "domestic issues should be solved by the Koreans themselves without any foreign interference." Carter and Park made their proposal for three-way negotiations during Carter's visit to Seoul June 30. They said the talks could ease tension on the divided peninsula and make a start on reunification. Thatcher moves to curb labor union power LONDON (GNS) Fulfilling another of her campaign promises, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher Monday unveiled her proposals for curbing the legal power of Britain's labor unions. Secondary picketing, a common tactic in strikes in Britain, would be outlawed.

Unions would also lose the legal protection they now have against being sued for breach of contract if their members strike while a labor contract is still in force. Closed shops, which are widespread in Britain, would be more difficult to create. Under a detailed statutory "code of practice," which could be used as the basis for court appeals against closed shops, an employee workforce made up totally of union members could be created "only with the wholehearted support of the workers covered." Israel army will continue to enter Lebanon JERUSALEM (GNS) Israeli infantry forces, which now are operating in southern Lebanon freely on a daily basis, Monday blew up two houses of suspected Palestinian terrorists about five miles across the Israeli border. The army warned that the policy of "deterrent actions" would continue. The incursion was the fourth in as many days acknowledged by the government, and it followed by a day a clash in a United Nations-controlled area north of Metulla during which three terrorists were killed while attempting to infiltrate into Israel with weapons and explosives.

Police, Arabs fight at new settlement TEL AVIV (GNS Israeli police and Arab villagers who are Israeli citizens clashed Monday at the construction site of a new settlement in the northern Galilee. The villagers claim the land belongs to them and tried to stop workers from plowing a road to the site. Israeli television reported seven policemen and two workers were injured by a barrage of wood, metal and rocks and more than two dozen people were arrested. Police used tear gas to disperse the crowd.

Kloster bought the France two weeks ago from Saudi financier Akram Ojjeh and said he eventually plans to use it in for Caribbean cruises. Japan warned today that it would discontinue economic assistance to Vietnam unless the Hanoi government takes immediate and effective steps to stop the exodus of refugees. The warning was delivered by the Foreign Ministry to Vietnamese Ambassador Nguyen Map. Japan provided Vietnam with 81.84 million in grants and $46 million in loans in the fiscal year ending March 31.

A Malaysian newspaper, the New Straits Times, said Malaysian Prime Minister Hussein Onn has sent a letter to President Carter explaining the critical nature of the refugee problem and why Malaysia cannot change its policy of not allowing more boat people to land in its territory. Hussein announced on June 18 that Malaysia was already saddled with 76,000 refugees, could not accept any more and that new arrivals would be towed out to sea. Since then more than 15,000 refugees in 80 boats have been towed away. Most of them are believed to have landed on Indonesian islands farther south. By The Associated Press.

The new owner of the former luxury liner France offered the ship today as a floating rescue station for Vietnamese refugees. Norwegian shipowner Knut Kloster told the Oslo newspaper Morgenbladet he would rent the ship he paid $18 million for so it could be anchored off the Southeast Asian coast for the refugees. Kloster made the offer to the Norwegian committee of a relief organization called A Boat for Vietnam, which helps run the French hospital ship Ile de Lumiere, now in Singapore. Agil Nansen, who heads the the Norwegian committee, said the offer could not be accepted without international financing. He gave no estimate of the cost.

The committee already has collected more than $200,000 in Norway for the operation of the Ile de Lumiere. Similar collections have taken place in other European countries. The Ile de Lumiere picked up 837 refugees on a trip from the northeast coast of Malaysia to Singapore, and 157 left today for new homes in France. The French government has offered asylum to all of the refugees the Ile de Lumiere picks up. Nansen told Morgenbladet his committee is negotiating to rent a Norwegian freighter for refugee aid.
