It is believed that this inter-

mounting higher antennas, which
is now a recommended move to
improve reception, will not suffice
to cure the difficulty.
The only way out is to build a
new Israel transmission center
with a signal powerful enough to
overcome the competitive trans-
missions from the south, but this
will entail a costly investment.
If the fool would persist in his
folly he would become wise. —

Israel Exports Wood
TEL AVIV (ZINS) — Had any-
one predicted 30 years ago that
Israel would one day be exporting
lumber, he would have been look-
ed upon with disbelief, consider-
ing the nudity of Israel's land-
scape.
But this is now the case. Accord-
ing to a report in Israel's scientific
journal "Madah", Israel now fells
20,000 tons of local timber a year.
This budding industry effects a
savings in hard currency of about
$1,000,000 annually.
A part of the supply finds its
way to the oil-rich Arab country
of Kuwait.
This fact, however, did not deter
Kuwait from joining in an Arab
boycott conference which con-
demned Jordan for trading with
Israel.
