Israeli Deputy Makes Sudden Washington Trip
Israeli Deputy Premier Yigal Allon jetted to Washington for a surprise visit to discuss Israel's position as Washington presses for a partial Middle East peace plan. A spokesman said he left a day early to spend hours in Washington, possibly bearing a message from Prime Minister Golda Meir to President Nixon. The visit follows regional turmoil after Egypt, Libya and Syria formed a federation, with Dayan warning against despair while noting no radical shift in the Arab world. The talks touch on potential reopening of the Suez Canal and the security posture along the canal front.
