Diplomats hope for Middle East peace as Sadat opens options
Anwar Sadat's complex problems push Kissinger toward a Sinai formula while Dayan and Eban sound guarded optimism. French arms could offer Sadat an alternative to Soviet influence, potentially easing tensions if Paris trades arms for leverage. The analysis notes the danger rises if Sadat lacks escape from heavy Moscow pressure.

School Aid Change Clears Committee in Missouri House
A bill to more evenly distribute about 300 million dollars in state school aid moved to the Missouri House floor with a committee recommendation for approval. Sponsored by Wayne Goode the measure revises the 1969 formula to base aid on enrollment and average daily attendance, with extra aid for high local taxes, low value per student and many recipients of Aid to Dependent Children. A similar effort last year failed.
