The development of the Negev as a center of mass settle-
ment is being accelerated by the establishment with the aid
of Israel Bonds of several new urban centers, based on light
industry and farming. It is hoped that the Negev will absorb
a large proportion of Israel's population increase in the next
ten years. Shown above is construction of the new cultural
center at Ofakim, a new town in the northern Negev where
a new textile plant, also built with the assistance of Israel
Bond proceeds, is soon expected to give employment to about
1,000 persons.
