Court Approves Lease Contract Of Defunct Plant Egypt Expected To Balk At Plan To End Crisis CAIRO U.N. Secretary Gen eral uag Hammarskjold flew into Cairo today for talks with Presi dent Nasser and other top Egyp tian officials on the issues still threatening the Middle East with violence. Egypt was expected to balk at the plea Hammarskjold reportedly will make for an Egyptian-Israeli proclamation of nonbelligerency. It was believed Hammarskjold would call for such pledges as a major curb against renewed war fare and that Israel would agree to go along. The Israelis have said all along they are ready to talk peace with their Arab neigh bors. The Arab allies of the 1948 Pal estine War have refused to talk peace with the Israelis. They have used the continuing technical state of war as a basis for their eco nomic boycott of Israel and their refusal to let Israeli ships use the Suez Canal and the Gulf of Aaaba. There appeared little hope Egvpt would mofidy that position in the current talks with Hammarskjold The secretary general was smil ing as he sleDDed from the Diane that brought him on hit fifth visit to fcgypt in little more than a year. He declined to make any statement to reporters. A U.N. press SDokesman said he did not know whether Hammar skjold would visit the canal area and the Gaza Strip or how long he would remain in Egypt. For the Gaza Strip, Hammar skjold was expected to try to work out a pian mat would neutralize the Mediterranean coastal area militarily while leaving it under Egyptian administration. He will urge the stationing of UNEF troops along both sides of the bor der separating Gaza and Israel.

A power plant operator at Mah nomen said the high line was not broken, but sagged near the car, Henry Sidney, the operator who visited the scene, said it is a mystery to him exactly how the people were electrocuted. He said the car might have been charged or that the would-be rescuers came in direct contact with the drop ping high line. It was not immediately deter mined whether Schultt and Hau Ren died of accident injuries or of electric shock. The six youngsters, who sur vived were under sedatives for shock and minor injuries in hos pitals and a clear picture of the bizarre tragedy was not available.
