Since the beginning of July, the
Jewish National Fund has been
reclaiming 11,000 acres of land
in the former demilitarized areas
on the previous Jordanian and
Syrian borders, it was reported
by Jacob Tsur, chairman of the
Jewish National Fund board of di-
rectors in Jerusalem.
The project includes 9,500 acres
of land in the Latrun area, on both
sides of the old Tel Aviv-Jerusalem
highway (which has now been re-
activated); some 6,250 acres of
this area to be utilized for inten-
sive farming, and. the remainder
for pasture.
Another 1,500 acres, now be-
ing developed, lies along the
Syrian border between Tel Katsir
and Hammat Gader; at Korazim
Bet northeast of Almagor, and
between Dan and Banias.
The Jewish National Fund is
undertaking preparations for set-
ting up at least four new Nahal
(Army Pioneer Settlers Corps) vil-
lages in the near future, near
Hammat Gader, Korazim Beth,
Mateh Oz near Kefar Ha-Nassi,
and on the banks of the Hermon
(Banias) River.
A road from Ein Gev northwards
along the eastern shore of Lake
Kinneret, is now being constructed
by the JNF. The road along the
lake continues northwards along
the upper Jordan River to the
Benot Yaakov bridge.
Tsur added that the JNF will
invest about 10,000,000 Israeli
pounds ($3,333,333) in these urgent
tasks.•, . -
