Israel Vignettes
Maginot Line,
Israel Version
By VICTOR H. BERNSTEIN
JERUSALEM — Wherever Is-
rael's Maginot Line is, it isn't on
its borders. The State's,north-
west corner is guarded by a
light white pole slung across the
highway and a handful of police
who have nothing to do but
count the diplomats who occa-
sionally motor through en route
to Beirut in Lebanon.
At Israel's northeast corner
there's the same white pole, but
not even a policeman. There's
just a dusty street that leads
out of the Israeli town of Metul-
la, sneaks under the white pole,
and wanders away into an emp-
ty Lebanon.
* * *
Metulla is a resort town. It
hasn't got a beach, a swimming
pool, a tennis court, a - golf
- course or a handball court. All
it has is a couple of pinochle
decks and a breeZe. These are
enough to make it so crowded
that we were . . turned away
from five of six restaurants or
pensions which dot the single
main street, and were finally
lucky to get our lunch at the
sixth.
The food staples in Israel are
fish, vegetables, eggs, occa-
sionally some rice, and fruit.
Privately, I confesss to be just
as happy that even tourists get
meat no more than four days
a week, for unless it's ground,
it's likely to be all muscles and
tendons.
Israelis feel differently. We had
a Jerusalem friend to dinner
with us at the swank King David
hotel the other day, and I com-
plained -about the toughness of
the meat.
"Ridiculous," he said warmly.
"It's food you can chew on, isn't
it?"
At the King David, some of
the waiters are French-talking
Swiss. But not all are Swiss. I
asked our waiter, in my best
French for, "de leau, s'il vows
plait." He, turned to the nearest
bus-boy and called, "Rubinstein!
Wasser!"
* *
In Nazareth ended the coun-
try-wide search of our driver
for some onions. He found them
in an Arab shop and waved us
aside so that he could bargain
the better without the presence
of rich Americans. A half-hour
later he came out victoriously
with four pounds—having paid
the equivalent of 25 cents a
pound.
