...SALT I agreement. Carter's most spectacular achievement, the Camp David accords between Egypt and Israel, will be in grave jeopardy if there is no progress on Palestinian autonomy by the end of May. With no such progress in sight, Carter's invitation to Menachem Begin and Anwar Sadat for something in the nature of a Camp David encore this month looks like a combination of nostalgia, grandstanding and desperation...
When the emaciated patient checked in under the private escort of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and his family, doctors who first examined the ex-Shah thought his state of health might be less grave than reported. Rumors circulated that the Shah had even felt fit enough to play a round of tennis a few days earlier in Panama. After Sadat emerged from a brief courtesy call to the Shah's third-floor suite Tuesday morning, he sounded relatively sanguine about the Shah's plight.

The departure would also complicate diplomatic efforts to free...
...Cairo, meanwhile, Israeli Ambassador Eliahu Ben Elissar, 48, bounded up the steps of Abdin Palace to present his credentials-along with those of new envoys of two other nations-to Egyptian President Anwar Sadat. After an honor guard played the national anthems of Israel and Egypt, Sadat warmly shook hands with the bearded Israeli Ambassador and applauded the two countries' "determination to live together in peace and harmony." Ben Elissar both startled and pleased Sadat by asking his permission to place a wreath at a memorial to Egypt's unknown soldier...
