were friends of ours of sorne years'
standing. We invited them, and they
preferred to

with us rather than
by commercial airlines.
In sorne cities where we stopped,
such as New Delhi, Teheran, and
Addis Ababa, where we already had
acquaintances at the top, we were
able to help them; and at other
places, such as Kuwait, Dubai, and
Cairo, they gave us prestige and
new contacts at the top in these
countries.
While Dr. Kissinger followed us,
arriving after we did at Aswan, we
expect to follow
him
into Jerusalem
early day after tomorrow. As it is,
a lthough we did not see each other,
both Dr. Kissinger and I were at
Aswan when the separation of
forces between Egypt and Israel was
finally signed at 12 noon today. We
were having lunch, very near the
world-famous Aswan High Dam.
Dr. Kissinger, supposedly, was hav–
ing a final meeting with President
Sadat of Egypt at bis "winte r pal–
ace" near the dam. Much of the
final working out of terms for the
separation of Israeli-Egyptian mili–
tary forces was worked out there,
these past two or three days. Dr.
Kissinger has been flying back and
forth between there and Jerusalem.
Now 1 have been in both Aswan
and Jerusalem within the last two
days. Dr. Kissinger has been work–
ing out a temporary "permanent"
peace between Israel and Egypt. I
am working toward a real

Day before yes t erday, I an–
nounced that forthcoming peace to
Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethíopia.
lt
was my second prívate and per–
sonal meeting with him. He agreed
that, although we should do all we
can to bring about peace and im–

meantime, that

We are now on our descent into

our own pockets, in amounts run–

Tears carne ínto the emperor's eyes.
"1 accept it on behálf of these

We talked about the Kingdom of
God. Most people do not know
what those words mean. I saíd,

"Forty-seven years ago, 1 received the shock
of my life.

1 was literally dumbfounded to
find that what is supposed to be Christianity
did not receive its religion and teaching
from the Bible."

these new doors?
1 travel around the world a good
deal. 1 see what this world is like. l
see what most of our readers do not
see. I see things
you
should be con–
cerned about.
I see poverty-stricken, emaciated ,
diseased, starvíng people, living in
filth and squalor, many wíthout
housing. And there are multiplied
millions of these - illiterate, help–
less. The poverty-stricken unedu–
cated are
more titan half
of all the
people on earth. Does that touch
your heart?

should!
It
does mine.
Have you read about the terrible
disaster of drought and famine, with
thousands actually
starving to death
in Ethiopia? Does that touch your
heart?
It

"We must do everythíng our–
