One Israeli official said that Israel and America were "near agreement" on the.U.S. role in financing the Israeli withdrawal. Cairo's official Middle East news agency quoted Sadat as telling the U.S. lawmakers, "The essential task before us now is to defuse the explosive situation in the Middle East in preparation for going to Geneva to set up the basis of a lasting peace." The lawmakers arrived in Cairo Friday for a two-day visit.

The group is led by Sen. Dale Bumpers (D. Ark.) sessment of its Middle East policy. Washington halted negotiations on $2.5 billion worth of-Israeli aid requests after negotiations for an Israeli-Egyptian settlement conducted by Secretary of State Henry Kissinger broke down in March. But earlier this week the Americans invited the Israeli delegation to resume the negotiations.

U.S. Financing Israeli officials have said the American aid is an essential part of the Israeli-Egyptian agreement. The Israelis want the Americans to replace oil revenues which would be lost if Israel returned the Abu Rudeis oil agreement, especially the extent of Israeli withdrawal in the desert peninsula. Clarifications The Israeli ambassador to Washington, Simcha Dinitz, is to receive clarifications Sunday on Egypt's latest proposals on an Israeli withdrawal before Israel formulates its reply, the Israeli radio said. A third aspect of the negotiations, concerning relations between Israel and the U.S., also appeared to be progressing, and the Israeli radio reported that an Israeli delegation was to arrive in Washington Monday to discuss the resumption of American aid held up during the U.S.

reas Nine Congressmen Recently Approved Reject Raises UPI Telcohoto HOBO ROYALTY King of the Hoboes John "Hardrock Kid" Mislen, 70, of Trenton, N.J., gets a jubilant hug from the new hobo queen, "Adventurer Jan" Denfeld, 17, of Rockwell City. 'Hardrock Kid1 King of Hoboes WASHINGTON (AP) At least nine house members are planning not to keep the pay raise congress voted itself last month. Three of them have refused the benefits of congressional pay raises in the, past. The remaining six are freshmen. President Ford still must sign the bill granting the raises to house and senate members.

The actual amount still must be calculated. The bill puts the congressmen and senators for the first time on a cost-of-living increase basis, which will pay off in October if signed by Ford. "If the American public has to bite the bullet, then it is only fair that members of the U.S. house of representatives should also bite that same bullet," said Rep. Bob Carr who says he will not keep his raise.

"Elected" Salary Rep. Charles Bennett (D-Fla.) says he will return his raise because he was elected at one salary and "nobody in public office, if he can prevent it, should raise their salaries themselves." Bennett rejected the last pay raise, from $35,000 to the current $42,500 in 1969, and did not accept the higher amount until re-elected to the next The others, who say they will not keep the raises are: Reps. Martha Keys Larry Pressler Robert Cornell Floyd Fithian Andrew McGuire Andrew Jacobs (D-Ind.) and Philip Sharp The House voted 214 to 213 July 30 for the pay raise. The amount has been calculated to be as much as $5,858 before taxes and other deductions by Carr. Others say it amounts to as little as $1,000 after taxes and deductions.

The cost-of-living index will be the final arbiter. Returnable Technically, every congressman must accept his full pay raise. The comptroller general of the U.S. ruled in 1925 that congressmen violate federal law by not accepting their full pay. However, after receiving his salary they may return any portion to the treasury.

This is the method most of the nine plan to use to reject their raises. After calculating the difference in take home pay at the new and old rates, they say they will send personal checks for the difference to the treasury. Jacobs has been doing just thi.s for years. Hardrock shouted after beating Fry Pan Jack and Sparky Smith in a runoff election. 'Traveling is my life.

It's the best education a man can possibly ge. If I had to do it all over again, I'd do it all exactly the same way." Handling the head judge's chore was the permanent king of the East Steamtrain Maury Graham of Toledo, Ohio. Steamtrain perennial favorite at the hobo festival, did not compete in the king contest this year. The king was chosen according to the applause each received from the crowd which jammed an off-street parking in downtown Britt. Each candidate gave a very short speech except for Under the Bridge Willey who favored the audience with an out-of-key rendition of the old hobo song and his namesake, "Under the Bridge, The Hardrock Kid was dressed in a black and gold shirt and long black pants with the toes of a pair of tattered basektball shoes sticking out from his cuffs.

He was crowned king with a crown made of a straw hat and coffee can and was presented a regal robe of rich looking blue cloth which he proudly donned. After the election was all over, the king and his queen popped the cork on a bottle of champagne and toasted their victories. The hoboes pull out of Britt Sunday with some heading east and some heading west but all moving on. BRUT (UPI) The Hardrock Kid, a 70-year-old drifter from Trenton, N.J., was crowned King of the Hoboes here Saturday afternoon in the high point of the annual National Convention of Tourist Union No. 63.

An estimated crowd of 15,000 spectators has crammed this small north-central Iowa community for the past two days to attend the carnival, art show and other activities connected with the colorful hobo convention. But, the finale came early Saturday afternoon when several hundred persons' chose John Mislen, also known as the Hardrock Kid, from a total of 11 hobo king candidates. Selected as his queen was an Iowa teenage girl, Adventurer Jan Jan Denfeld, 17, of Rockwell City, in real life. Jan comes from royal bloodlines as she stole the crown from her mother, Long Looker Mic, also of Rockwell City. There were three queen contestants including the past winner Long Looker.

In capturing the king title for the sixth time over a number of years, Hardrock edged Fry Pan Jack, the renowned hobo cook, and incumbent king Slow Motion Shorty. Other candidates included well-known hoboes such as the fiesty Pennsylvania Kid, Frisco Jack, Under the Bridge Willy, Lord Open Road, Montana Jack, Cheyenne Kid and Sparky Smith. Tm the happiest man in the world! God bless By Associated Press Two high-ranking Israeli officials will go to Washington next week to work -out the wording of the political aspects of an interim peace agreement with Egypt, the Israeli state radio said Satur-' day. This suggested that the Israelis and Egyptians were near agreement on the substance of the political part of a pact for an Israeli withdrawal in the Sinai desert. In Cairo, President Anwar Sadat assured visiting U.S.

lawmakers that Egypt is "determined to pursue all roads leading to a just and durable peace" in the Middle East Sadat later met with Mexican Foreign Minister Emiliq Rabasa, who handed him a message believed connected with the Middle East conflict from Mexican President Luis Echeverria who is currently visiting Israel. Trying To Bridge Gap Sadat also met with the U.S. charge d'affaires in Cairo, Frank Maestrone. No details were immediately available on either meeting. Observers think that Echeverria is trying to bridge the gap between the Egyptian and Israeli proposals for reaching a second disengagement "agreement In Sinai.

Israeli foreign ministry sources confirmed that Mor-dechai Gazit, director-geneal of the prime minister's office, and the foreign ministry's legal adviser, Meir Rozen, will meet the U.S. negotiators in Washington. The sources declined to be specific on the points of accord. Jerusalem officials have said in the past that the Israelis are seeking a commitment frohr4he Egyptians to reduce economic and political warfare against the Jewish state and to undertake a promise of "non-use of force" in settling future disagreements between the two sides. Also under negotiation are the strategic aspects of the KNAP SACK Reg.
