Autonomy talks face delays amid Arab Israeli disputes
Observers doubt May 1980 deadline for a Palestinian autonomy plan will be met due to wide gaps between Egypt and Israel. Sadat links autonomy to eventual independence for about 1.2 million West Bank residents. In Washington, Senate plans propose over 35 billion dollars to aid low income Americans in offsetting fuel costs, energy conservation, and tax credits for alternative fuels. Senate actions also target Social Security tax cuts, exempting initial interest and dividends, and repealing a 1976 inheritance tax change. Egypt seeks legislative powers for Arabs in occupied territories and voting rights for residents of Arab Jerusalem in self rule elections.
