Record Set by Teen-Age Groups Joining
Histadrut Israel Summer Kibutz Projects

49 Investment Proj ects Since 1968
Disclosed at Israel Economic Parley

JERUSALEM (JTA)—The heads
of the various regional committees
established by the late Premier
Levi Eshkol's World Economic
Conference here last year reported
Tuesday on progress made to date.
Their reports were a prelude to
the Second World Economic Con-
ference whi•Ji opened Wednesday
under the sponsorship of Premier
Golda Meir.
The Knesset Tuesday passed the
first of several new laws providing
incentives for foreign investors.
Victor Carter of California, chair-
man of the U.S regional commit-
tee, disclosed that 49 projects rep-
resenting a $56,000,000 investment
by American firms have been ap-
proved since last year's confer-
ence. He said the projects have
brought American businessmen
into "living contact" with Israel's
economy and opened a "new and
historic partnership."
Frzncois Pereire, chairman of
the European regional commit-
tee, said 40 investment ventures
had been finalized so far within
the preview of his group and 20
were in various stages of com-
pletion.

States, chairman of the finance
committee, mentioned four proj-
ects with which his own firm, Is-
rael Investors Corp., is associated.
They are a plant for the manufac-
ture of leather clothing, whose
staff has doubled and exports
tripled during the past year; a ma-
chine tool corporation: the Gen-
eral Education Corp-, and the Is-
rael Tractor Corp.
The Knesset passed Tuesday the
Israel Corporation Law, which
provides for the establishment of
a $1,000,000 holding and investment
company that will be granted spe-
cial tax concessions.
The economic conference is at-
tended ay 250-300 businessmen, fi-
nanciers and economists from
Europe. Asia. North and South
America and a like number of Is-
raelis. The largest contingent, over
100 persons, is expected from the
United States. About 80 delegates
will come from continental Europe
and 25 from Great Britain. The
conference will run through Sun-
day.

We do not really know anything
at all until a long time after we
have learned it. —Joseph Joubert.
