Saturday. The daily al-Anbaa said in a dispatch from Washington the Saudi warning was de- , livered personally to the . U.S. State Department by the Saudi ambassador to Washington. State Department Press Officer Sondra McCarty said she was \not aware of any such tough-worded mes- sage.\ Chief State Depart- ment spokesman John Trattner told reporters the Saudis had been plan- ning to cut production for some time because of a world ofl glut. Reacts to Article He was reacting to a re- port Friday in the authorita- tive ofl industry publication Platt's Ollgram that the Saudis were talking about cutbacks after the Novem- ber U.S. presidential elec- tion to pressure the West on Jerusalem issue. Trattner said such a move would be inconsistent with recent public statements by Saudi officials. According to independent al-Anbas, one of Kuwait's four major newspapers, the Saudis threatened to reduce production from the current level of 9.5 million barrels per day to 8.5 million if the West allowed the Jerusalem annexation to stand. Other Arab producers, particular- ly Iraq, the world's second largest e r after Saudi Arabia, would reduce production, the newspaper added. Previously Just Hints Saudi officials in the past have only hinted at the Over Annexing Jerusalem the 1967 Middle East War. Israel annexed the sector shortly after the war. Egypt broke off peace talks with Israel soon after the July bill was passed, and the Moslem world, which considers the many Islamic shrines in Jerusa- lem to be holy, condemned the Israeli move. ‘BUFF‘AID COURIER-EXPRESS, Sunday, August 31, 1980 A3 Casino Bombers Made Two Threats STATELINE, Nev.
