agreements were reached
between Presidents Carter and

his pitch for a share of U.S.
weapons sales both at the White
House and on Capitol Hill in con
cluding two days of official talks

homeland for the Palestinians.
Powell said he did not know if
Sadat asked for U.S. recognition
of the PLO.

White House Monday with as
surances that the United States
will “lend its own offices” for
a peaceful resolution of the
Middle East conflict and that
“We understand the common
ground on which peace may be
found."

the President for the opportuni
