Envoys To Shuttle Between Jerusalem, Beirut
WASHINGTON, (JTA) � The
State Department said that the
Reagan Administration favors
"quiet diplomacy" to achieve its
goals in Lebanon and will not discuss
the "substance" or "modalities" of
that process.
Earlier this week, U.S. special
envoys Philip Habib and Morris
Draper returned to Beirut, Lebanon.
Draper is expected to stay in
Lebanon; whereas Habib is going on
to Jerusalem.
Habib and Draper were recalled to
Washington last week for consulta-
tions with the president and briefed
senior Administration officials on
what the State Department des-
cribed as ' 'progress" made to date.
Habib's mission covers both the
situation in Lebanon and Reagan's
overall Middle East initiative.
Draper has been concentrating on
efforts to start negotiations between
Israel and Lebanon for the with-
drawal of all foreign forces from
Lebanon and security arrangements
for Israel.
Romberg would not comment on
reports that Secretary of State
George Shultz has suggested a
"shuttle" by the American envoys
ABC To Air
Series On
Holocaust
NEW YORK, (JTA) � Herman
Wouk's best-selling novel, "The
Winds of War," set in the years
immediately preceding Pearl Har-
bor when the "final solution" was
taking shape in Nazi Germany, will
be dramatized by the American
Broadcasting Co (ABC) in an
18-hour prime time network televi-
sion series beginning Sunday,
February 6, 1983, the network has
announced.
It traces the events and forces that
perpetrated the Holocaust and
brought the entire world to the brink
of destruction, as seen through the
eyes of an American naval officer
and his family and an American
Jewish girl and her uncle. The
opening episode which restores on
film the long-lost Jewish world of the
"shtetl" was filmed in Zagreb,
Yugoslavia.
The time is 1939. A Jewish
wedding is taking place, witnessed
by two outsiders. They are Natalie
Jastrow, an American Jew in search
of her Europeap roots, played by
actress Ali McGraw; and Byron
Henry, an American non-Jew,
played by Jan-Michael Vincent.
ABC reported that questions were
raised about casting an actress
named McGraw in a major Jewish
role. They were quickly quieted by a
reminder that Ms. McGraw's mo-
ther was Jewish, according to ABC.
Another member of the cast is
Topol, an Israeli actor, who plays
Natalie's Polish cousin. Topol is well

between Jerusalem and Beirut to
eliminate the issue of venue. Israel
has insisted that its negotiations
with Lebanon be held in Jerusalem
and Beirut. The Lebanese govern-
ment has refused.
Romberg stressed that "The
president has had a plan for
Lebanon for some time" which "has
three elements: assuring Israel's
security; restoring Lebanon's
sovereignty throughout the country;
and the withdrawal of all foreign
forces.
However, he said "Beyond that, in
terms of either substance or
modalities about what Habib and
Draper are going to be doing, we
simply are not gong to be discussing
it, reverting to our previous formal-
ness. We think  that  is  the most
effective   way   of   proceeding
through quiet diplomacy."
State Department deputy spokes-
man Alan Romberg had no comment
on the meeting in Rome between
Secretary Shultz and President
Hosni Mubarak of Egypt. According
to reports from Rome, they met at
the Egyptian Embassy for 30
minutes to discuss Middle East
developments and Mubarak's visit
to Washington scheduled for the end
of next month. Shultz was quoted as
saying, "We discussed develop-
ments in the Middle East in which
the U.S. and Egypt have vital
interests."
Mubarak told reporters that their

New British Role In Mideast
Appears Beneficial To Israel
LONDON, (JTA) �Lord Carring-
ton, former foreign secretary, is
emerging in a new national role as
roving Ambassador for Prime
Minister Margaret Thatcher, who is
trying to assert herself as the
country's foreign policy leader.
This weekend, Carrington was
visiting Tunisia and Jordan for
consultations about the Arab-Israeli
conflict. Last week, he was in Saudi
Arabia. His mission follows the
recent decision of Mrs. Thatcher to
enlist Sir Anthony Parsons, Britain's
former Ambassador at the United
Nations, as special adviser on
foreign policy.
These moves could have far rea-
ching consequences for Britain's
Middle East policy.  Traditionally
this has been a preserve of the
Foreign Office, which contains a
large contingent of diplomats with
experience in Arab countries giving
it a reputation of favoring the Arabs
over the Israelis.
Mrs. Thatcher's intrusion into
Middle East policy recently came
into focus with her refusal to meet
an Arab League delegation, headed
by Morocco's King Hassan, because
of the Arab's insistence on bringing
along Farouk Kaddoumi of the
Palestine Liberation Organization.
Although Mrs. Thatcher sub-
scribed to the European Economic
Community's Venice Declaration of
June, 1981, urging the PLO's
participation in  Mideast  negotia-
