Israel's $470,000,000 Plan Exceeds
U. S. Project for Jordan Waters
JERUSALEM, (JTA) — Details
of Israel's plan for the develop-
ment of the Jordan water
sources and adjoining areas,
presented in Washington to
Ambassador Eric Johnston, presi-
ident Eisenhower's special rep-
resentative to the Near East,
were revealed here. The Israel
plan, which provides for almost
immediate settlement of the
Arab refugees, is far more
comprehensive than the Jordan
Valley Authority plan prepared
by the United States.
It is understood that the Is-
raeli plan—known as the Cot-
ton Plan—visualizes a con-
struction pr o g r am extending
over 25 years and costing in
total $470,000,000, and provides
for the marshalling of the re-
sources of the Jordan River in
Israel and Jordan, the Litani
River basin in Lebanon and the
Yarmuk River basin in Syria
and Jordan.
The Cotton Plan proposes
fullest irrigation of all lands
tha.:, need it in Jordan, Southern
Lebanon and the Yarmuk basin
of Syria, with excess water
which cannot then be used in
these areas being allocated to
Israel which, by contrast, has
far more land in need of irri-
gation than water available for
the purpose.
Where the plan drafted by
American experts and pressed
by Ambassador Eric Johnston—
who is scheduled to visit the
Near East next week—provides
for the irrigation of 30,000 du-
nams (four dunams equal one
acre) of land in Syria, nothing
for Lebanon, 490,000 dunams for
Jordan and 420,000 dunams for
Israel, the Cotton Plan calls for:
The irrigation of 30,000 du-
nams for Syria, 350,000 dunams
for Lebanon, 430,000 dunams for
Jordan and 1,790,000 dunams for
Israel. The amount for Jordan
in the Israeli plan is the same
as the amount in the American
plan, but does not include in
its specifications the area taken
up by roads and built up areas
which are not actually used for
agricultural purposes. The Is-
raeli plan also provides for the
production of 1,400,000,000 kilo-
watt hours of electric power an-
nually and would make it avail-
able early in the project rather
than at the last stages, as does
the Johnston JVA plan.
The Cotton Plan provides for
the development program to
be built in four stages. The
first stage in Israel would in-
clude the diversion of the Jor-
dan River for power generation
purposes below Lake Huleh and
the diversion of the major flow
of the river into the main stor-
age reservoir. In Jordan, the
first stage would include diver-
sion of a major part of the Yar-
muk's summer flow.
