Agreement on Kashruth
on El Al Planes
JERUSALEM, (JTA) — A
four - month - old dispute over
kashruth supervision on El Al
planes was resolved when Trans-
port Minister Israel Bar Yehuda
told the Cabinet he had reached
an agreement on the matter
with Religious Affairs Minister
Zerah Warhaftig.
The Transport Minister said
he would issue directives jointly
with Dr. Warhaftig to enable
the Chief Rabbinate's Kashruth
division to inspect food arrange-
ments on the airline. El Al will
make available several trips an-
nually on its planes for repre-
sentatives of the division who
will make inspections at plane
stops. If unsatisfactory kashruth
arrangements are found by the
representatives, they will be
submitted to El Al's adminis-
tration for prompt investigation.

Jerusalem Municipality Requests
Hadassah Aid for Another 5 Years

JERUSALEM, (JTA) — The
Jerusalem Municipality gave un-
animous support to the stand of
Mayor Mordechai Ish-Shalom in
asking the Hadassah Medical
Organization to participate for
another five years in the main-
tenance of Hadassah-created
community and school health
services from which the Wom-
en's Zionist Organization wants
to withdraw.
The Jerusalem Council ap-
proved a report by the mayor
asserting that the municipality
was neither financially nor ad-
ministratively able to take over
sole drection of the health serv-
ices on April 1 as Hadassah has
insisted .

The Mayor was scheduled to
meet this week with Hadassah
Medical Organization director
Kalman Mann in an effort to
break the deadlock. Mrs. Rose
Halprin, Hadassah leader who
is now in Israel attending the
Jewish Agency session, took
part in a meeting of the Hadas-
sah Medical Organization here.
A spokesman said that Mrs.
Halprin stated that Hadassah
headquarters in New York was
standing by its decision to re-
linquish the health services on
April 1 and also by its proposal
to contribute half of the annual
cost of the first year and a third
of the cot in the following two
year toward the maintenance of
the services.
