Best View of Israel
Atop Tel Aviv High-Rise
The top of the Eiffel Tower and
the Empire State Building are
sightseeing "musts" in Paris and
New York. In Tel Aviv, it's the
top of the Shalom Tower building
where, on a clear day, Israel can
be seen from end to end.
To the northeast are the hills of
Samaria, while to the southeast the
hills of Judea are evident. One
can spot the beginning of the
Negev desert far to the south and
the hills of Mt. Carmel and Lower
Galilee to the far north.
Outside the towering struc-
tures in the United States, the
Shalom Tower is reported to be
one of the 20 highest skyscrap-
ers in the world, and according
to some estimates, it's the tallest
building between Rome and
Tokyo.
Completed in 1967, the Shalom
Tower stands 30 stories high-460
feet above street level. There's a
nominal admission fee to the ob-
servation deck, where telescopes
and maps are available. There's
also a restaurant atop the tower.
The floors below contain office
space, a recently completed hotel
and Israel's first Western-style
department store.

Anti-Pompidou Protests Defended by Agency Aide
WASHINGTON (JTA)—Herman
Bookbinder, Washington repr e-
sentative of the American Jewish
Committee, criticized critics of the
anti-Pompidou demonstrations in
the United States, noting that
"there is no unanimous Jewish
'line' in this country."
Bookbinder, in a letter publish-
ed in the Washington Post, wrote:
"There may possibly have been
better ways to further the mutual
interests of America and of Israel
—there can be honest differences
on this—but what was done does
not justify the harsh and ominous
analysis that some have made of
it."
He singled out columns by Mar-
quis Childs and by the Rowland
Evans-Robert Novak team for de-
scribing the protests as "counter-
productive" and "disastrous."
"I happen to believe," Book-
binder observed, "that mass
demonstrations, even orderly
ones, to further public goals are
no longer effective or appro-
priate. But there is nothing Il-
legal or immoral or un-American

no matter what your age or marital status. Every need is nearby
. shopping, theatres, restaurants and expressways.

laundry room. And forget about storage. Your locker is on the
same floor as your apartment, too. You identify visitors by
closed circuit security television.
Charter House apartments are spacious,
complete, and beautifully finished — yet well within the price
range of those who merely "move out" but settle for humdrum
two story living. Two bedroom, two bath apartments ...
with balcony and a view — range from ;277 through $291
per month. Other 1 and 2 bedroom apartments rent for less.
