...Egyptian cannon fired again last week, this time in welcome to one of the Arabs' staunchest friends, Josip Broz Tito. When the Yugoslav President's plane arrived in Cairo, Gamal Abdel Nasser warmly embraced his 75-year-old visitor. Then, after reviewing the Egyptian honor guard, the two leaders drove off to Nasser's presidential palace for three days of talk about war and peace...
