Secretary of State Henry Kissinger reported some progress after five hours of talks with Israeli officials in Jerusalem on a Sinai accord and then headed to Alexandria for discussions with President Anwar Sadat.

He touted revenue sharing as a model that could be made permanent and inflation-proof, with entitlements tied to federal tax revenues, and urged passage of a Senate public works jobs bill to fund local projects.
