"Tiw Peace"? The U.S. State Department's formal statement June 27 asserting that Israeli withdrawal from territories on all fronts including the West Bank was necessary for a "true peace" in the Middle East took official circles in Jerusalem by surprise. To say that we are disturbed by this declaration is truly an understatement. We are not alone in this feeling. The Republican National Committee states that President Carter "has now dictated the terms for a Middle East settlement." The reversal of President Carter's strong support of the State of Israel as he outlined it in the 1976 Presidential campaign is the most serious promise he has broken since his election, said former Sen. William Brock of Tennessee, the committee's chairman. Nine Democratic Senators, among Israel's staunchest supporters in the Senate also found it advisable to caution the President not to alter "our historical commitment" to Israel. When the President meets with Premier Menachem Begin later this month, we are hopeful that a meeting of the minds will take place.
Israel Works Hard—Could Work Harder HAIFA—There is a strange paradox to Israel's productivity. A visitor driving through the countryside seldom sees workers in the fields, yet agricultural production has' zoomed to new heights. At construction projects laborers seem to be few hi number, and those that are visible are never distinguished for their speed or efficiency. Israelis take siestas at mid-day, have lots of holidays, seem to be on strike much of the time — yet somehow things get done. Among ourselves' we bemoan the lack of efficiency and the low work ethic. If only we were as thorough as the Germans, as diligent as the Japanese, as well-organized as the Americans — what wonders we could achieve! A brochure produced recently by the Israel Productivity Institute compares the situation in Israel with that in leading countries. The cold statistics provide an Interesting picture. Gross National Product (GNP) Is the total value of all goods and services produced in one year. During the period between 1965 and 1974 GNP per employee Increased hi
Japan by ICO per cent; in Israel by 68 per cent; hi Italy by 53 per cent; Germany, 44 per wait; U.S.A., 14 per cent. Of oucree that simply means that we had started low down on the list and had been making good progress. We are still very far from nigh western standards. Thus, In 1975 GNP per capita of total population in Switzerland stood at $6,970,
g Sweden, U.S.A., Canada, Germany and Denmark follow, all with over $6,000 per capita. Next come Belgium,. Holland and France, each with over $5,000 GNP per capita. In twelfth place, with $3,060, is Israel, followed only by Italy with $2,710. If we think of Israel as a bard working, productive country, the chart seems to tell a different story.

In fact, Israelis have been most hospitable and empathetic to hundreds of thousands of Arab visitors crossing from Jordan, as well as to wounded refugees form the Lebanese civil war. The 1971 Post called for negotiations first. That has always been Israel's position. Her adversaries, regrettably, still insist, and labor under the impression, that it is uptothe United States to impose a settlement.

We get an eves moredepressing picture from another point of view. Of the 13 major western countries in the report,-we find that hi Sweden 49 per cent of the population is employed; Japan, 47 per cent; Germany 44 per cent; U.S.A., 40 per cent; Italy, 34 per cent. Last and lowest on the list Is Israel where In 1975 only 32 per cent of the population is at work. The figures don't tell us why. Can it be because more Israelis are In the army? Because more Israelis are over-age — or under-age? Because iess women work? At a tune when we should be exerting every effort for more production to create exports It hi embarrassing to find that so much of Israel's working force Is engaged hi services rather than hi industry. Thus, 60 per cent of Israelis are In services; S4.9 per cent in Britain; 50.1 per cent hi Japan; 45.1 per cent hi Germany. Only the UJS. and Canada exceed Israel (60 per cent and 62.6 per cent respectively) but they can afford It. And lest the reader think the rest of us are fanners, only 6.5 per cent of Israelis are engaged hi agriculture. Inflation has exacted its price. Between 1970 and, 1975 the consumer price Index in Israel went up by 185 per cent, as against" 82.5 per cent in England;" 42,5 per cent hi Canada; 38.6 per cent in the U.S. That would seem to put a strain on the wage earner, but. the figures show a different picture. In the same period (and compare this figure with the increase hi the price Index) Industrial wages rose in Israel by 228 per cent. For thoughtful consideration; We're awfully proud of Entebbe and our production of the Kflr plane and our exports of diamonds and oranges and avocadoes, and our creation of new missiles and tanks, and the magnificent buildings hi our major cities, and vour champion basketball team -*• but maybe, maybe we Israelis ought to work harder and complain less. After all, it's our own survival that is at stake.

TEX AVIV (ZINS)-Joel Marcus, one of the leading writers lor Ha'aretz, takes a dim vfew of the potential for the sale abroad of Israelimade warplanes. . Marcus' pessimism is based - on the following observations and arguments: (a) states larger and richer than Israel are cutting back on the production of warplanes for export, because many buying countries are part of military alliances where the supply of aircraft is in the hands of the big powers, with whom it is difficult to compete, (b) Israel imports the engines for the KFIR plane from the U.S. and Is also dependent on America for spare parts. Should Israel and America clash politically

changed Its name years later to Zionist Organization of America. Dr. Gotthell, who was Professor of Semitic Languages at Columbia University for 49 years, was elected president of the Federation at Its first convention. Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, who later became a most outstanding leader of American Jewry; was elected secretary. This was the beginning of the organized political Zionist movement in the United States. For many years—till the issuance of the historic Balfour declaration by Britain promising the establishment of a Jewish National Home in Palestine — Zionism made little progress in this country. The immigrant Jewish masses were followers of the leaders of the Jewish labor movement who were antlZionist. The Americanized Jews were similarly antiZionist. The.organizatlon of Reform rabbis, which reflected the mood of Reform Jewry, was rabidly against Zionism. However, the Zionist sentiments grew stronger among
immigrant Jews as a result of the Inspiring speeches by Rev. Zvi Hlrsh Masliansky, a fiery Orthodox folks-speaker who drew thousands of listeners at public meetings. Its strength grew also due to Dr. Smaryahu Lewin, a world Zionist leader and great orator, who got stranded in the United States when World War I broke out. The Zionist movement developed even greater Impetus during the Louis Lipsky period. Lipsky, who became chairman of the ZOA Exe c u t i v e ' i n 1912, l a t e r dominated the ZOA for about 30 years. Jewish labor elements inclined to Zionism formed their own Labor Zionist groups.

Now Bsthe Time NOW IS THE TIME to take a serious look at President Jimmy Carter's outlined position towards & resolution of the Arab-Israeli conflict. Under the Carter formula, Israel would be expected to withdraw almost entirely from the territories occupied during the June 1967 war and to agree to the creation of a Palestinian "homeland," somewhere as yet undefined. The Arab states and the representatives of the Palestinians,fortheir part, would be required to undertake full normal relations with a recognized state of Israel and to allow measures that would make Israel's borders defensible.

Israel Is convinced that its 1967 borders are virtually indefensible under modern battle conditions and as such the returntothese borders would be a constant invitation to attack, rather than a reenforcing element of lasting peace."
