Prime Minister Harold Wilson of Britain told a press conference here, in reply to a question, that he had discussed Middle East problems with Italian Premier Aldo Moro.
The question apparently was raised because there was no reference to the Middle East in the communique issued here by the two Premiers. The British leader said that the omission was irrelevant and probably due to the large identity of views between the two leaders.
Discussing specific aspects of problems and dangers in the Middle East, Mr. Wilson mentioned the plans of the Arabs to divert headwaters of their territories of the Jordan River and thus deny the Jordan River water to Israel. He reiterated his opinion that Israel should take the water issue to the United Nations, rather than resort to force.
