Meir rejects Suez reopening deal while pressing borders
Israeli Premier Golda Meir told a Labor party conference that Egypt’s offer to reopen the Suez Canal would not be accepted in exchange for Israeli withdrawals. She reaffirmed Israel’s demand to retain the Gaza Strip, Golan Heights, Sharm el Sheikh, and Arab Jerusalem, and warned of potential war if Syria and Egypt push for deadlines without a formal peace treaty and secure borders.

Nixon Leads Nixon Ahead of Muskie in New Poll
In mid March Gallup shows President Nixon 43 percent to Muskie 39 percent, with Nixon also leading Kennedy and Humphrey. The shift from January reflects gains by the three Democrats overall despite Nixon’s below 50 percent popularity. The South shows a solid Nixon edge over the three senators and Wallace as a potential third party.
