By Susan Bennett Free Press Washington Staff WASHINGTON The Bush administration urged Israel on Monday to defuse tensions in its bloody 15-month conflict with Palestinians over the occupied territories of the West Bank and Gaza Strip while a Middle East peace plan is pursued. President George Bush told Israeli Foreign Minister Moshe Arens that the United States is looking for new ideas to resolve tensions in the Middle East but warned that the "opportunity for peace" should not be missed during the search. Bush and Arens spent less than 30 minutes meeting Monday with no major policy initiatives proposed by either side in what was billed as the first high-level talks between the newly elected U.S. and Israeli governments. But in sessions with Secretary of State James Baker III, Arens agreed that something must be done to halt the continuing violence in the occupied territories, said a State Department official who asked not to be identified.

In the talks with Arens, Bush administration officials suggested a series of actions from reopening schools in the occupied territories to releasing some of the Palestinians detained during the violence to ease the Israeli-Palestinian standoff, said an administration official familiar with Middle East and still believes in direct talks as the best path to peace," Fitzwater said. Next week in Tunisia, U.S. Ambassador Robert Pelletreau Jr. is expected to urge the Palestine Liberation Organization to make concessions, the administration official said. Among them could be ending violent demonstrations in the territories, the official said.

Focus on the Middle East will continue over the next few weeks during the scheduled visits to Washington by Israeli Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir, King Hussein of Jordan dnd President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt Middle Eastern affairs who spoke on the condition that he not be named. "We certainly want to reduce tension," Arens told reporters after meeting with Baker. But, "it's not easy to do that considering the violence in the area at the present time." White House spokesman Marlin Fitzwater said Bush assured Arens that the United States remains firm in its commitment to the security concerns of Israel. But the president underscored the need to resolve the conflict in the Middle East. "President Bush emphasized that the United States does not want to miss an opportunity for peace in the lage.
