He remained in the Sinai Desert. He remained in the Egyptian capital through the Arab-Israeli war and has just gone to Athens, where he filed this report on conditions in Cairo. By DENNIS NEELD ATHENS (AP) -- President Gamal Abdel Nasser kas largely succeeded so far in hid- ing from the Egyptian people the magnitude of Egypt's mili- tary defeat in the Sinai Desert, But slowly the word is spread- ing. Troops have returned from the battlefront with tales of rout and horror. More and more families are being noti- fied that their sons will never come back, Cairo radio and the govern- ment press maintain a steady drumfire of propaganda telling Egyptians it is only a matter of time before the lost terri- tories are recovered. There have been calls for a "people's warand suggestions for arming the civilian popula- tion against Israel. STUNNED BY WAR'S END Egyptians were stunned when told the country had agreed to a ceasefire and Nasser's pres- tige was at its lowest ebb. But he fought back with skill. His emotional speech of res- ignation followed by massive demonstrations in his favor and his subsequent change of mind put Nasser back on top. Loudspeakers which only days ago echoed round the sun- baked squares of Cairo with martial music and prophesies of imminent victory are muted MAINTAINS PROPAGANDA now. The "on to Tel Aviv' ban- ners are gone. Today commentators speak of preparations and sacrifices to be made before a "second round' can be fought. Few Egyptians believe a peaceful settlement with Israel is pos- sible and few seem to want one. Already Egyptians are feel- ing the pinch. Meat and other food is scarce. Couples have been asked to give up their wedding rings to replenish the country's gold reserves. Harder times probably ars ahead. With the Suez Canal closed, the flow of tourists at an end, Egypt's hard currency' earnings have all but dried up. It is surviving on Soviet hand- outs. The outskirts of Cairo are jammed with troops. Columns of heavy tanks lie just off the main road to the airport. MiG jets scream overhead. The show of strength may be a precaution against a possible coup by disgruntled military elements but there is no evi- dence of any great disenchant- ment with the man who has led, Egypt for 13 years. By appointing himself pre- mier and head of the ruling party Nasser has strengthened his political control. Soviet President Nikolai V. Podgorny's arrival Wednesday further boosted Nasser's im- age, holding out the hope of stepped-up Soviet aid. There are signs, meanwhile, that Egypt, with Russian help, is already rebuilding its mili- tary forces. Big Soviet trans- port planes have been stream- ing into Cairo airport. They are reported to be carrying MiG fighters to replace those de- stroyed by Israeli bombing raids, TORONTO (CP) -- An equal time to question all w the U.S. government plans than a dozen features that pr story from Washington, 'cong nantnanuncassaa naga outset ..
