Peace meet failed said Reds MOSCOW (AP) — The Communist party newspaper Pravda says the Egyptian- Israel meeting was a failure and that the only way to achieve an over-all Middle East settlement is for all parties and their “allies to co-operate. In a comment on the Ismailia talks between Egyptian Presiden Anwar Sadat and Israeli Premier Menachem Begin, it says Israel presented warmedover proposals that amount to annexation of occupied Arab lands and trampling on the rights of Palestinian Arabs. Pravda says Beypt found Begin’s an unacceptable and again criticized Sadat’s in- itiatives. “Cairo’s unilateral actions not only failed to soften the Israeli demands but toughened them,” the newspaper says, “All gestures by Cairo were viewed in Tel Aviv as a sign of weakness and willingness to make considerable concessions.” Police BREWER, Me. (AP) — Lethal booby traps hidden in the home of a 38-year-old recluse who was killed in a shootout with police look as though they were meant to keep out intruders, authorities say. Police bomb experts disarmed four of the homemade explosive, devices at the home of Forrest Peavey on Monday. The bomb squad suspended its work Monday night because of tear gas that lingered in some of the rooms from Sunday night’s siege. Police Chief David Koman said he believes more devices will be uncovered in the two- storey house and that a “suitcase with wires coming out of it” in the middle of one room still has to be disarmed. Koman said the bomb experts found black powder and shotgun shell-armed device controlled by trip wires and radio transmitters and are concerned Pea- vey “may have something more drastic at the end of the line.” Neighborhood residents were asked to leave their homes while the devices were dis- mantled, but were allowed to return for the night. Pravda says Begin in his answers at a joint news conference Monday nearly declared null and void parts of UN rese- lutions that -deal with Israeli withdrawal from Arab lands captured in the 1967 war. Pravda says a Middle East settiement can be achieved only by “‘co- ordinated actions of all Arab countries in co- operation with their ies.”” The Soviet Union supports Syria and the Palestine Liberation Organization, whic reject Sadat’s peace drive. Guerrillas responsible BEIRUT (AP) Palestinian guerrillas claimed responsibility for the assassination of an Arab “collaborator” and joined Syria today in pledging a stepped-up campaign against Egyptian-Israeli peace talks. A spokesman = for Yasser Arafat's Palestine Liberation Or- ganization (PLO) said Hamd: Khadi, a pro- Sadat Palestinian working for the educatior ministry on the Israeli- occupied West Bank of the Jordan River, was shot Monday by a “‘Pale- stinian _revolutionary.’” “Tf other forewarned collaborators fail to heed the ultimatum, they will be punished the same for death way,” the PLO spokes- man said. Khadi, 39, was killed on a street in Ramaliah, eight kilometres (five miles) north Je- rusalem. Jt was the second attempt on his life. Previously, a bomb was placed under his car but did not injure him. violence in the wake of the Ismailia conference between Egyptian Presi- dent Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin. The PLO and the Syrian government of President Hafez Assad issued a statement today pledging “‘escalated joint ~ efforts to thwart Sadat's ISSUES WARNING A PLO communique, issued after the shooting, pledged to “strike with an iron fist at anyone who challenges the will of the Palestinian peop! personified in the peop les legitima leadership, the Palestine Liberation Organization.” The assassination was the first known act of disarm booby trap “One room looked like a spider web,” Koman said. ‘‘He had wires running all over the place.” Koman said police were “still trying to put the pieces together,” but assumed that Peavey, fearful that someone would force him into an institution, wanted to protect his home against intruders. Peavey was killed Christmas night after he shot a policeman in the shoulder. The policeman was responding to a call from neighbors who told police Peavey, clothed in part of policy.” Syria, Israel's most militant neighbor, and the PLO head a hardline Arab front that is backed by Libya, Algeria and South Yemen.
