''Sky's the Limit for Growing
Israel Aircraft Industries

By Special Correspondent
JERUSALEM — Israel Aircraft
Industries, already the nation's
largest industry and one of its most
advanced, continues to grow, forg-
ing ahead into new fields of the
aerospace business and firing the
imaginations of all Israelis.
It was necessity that led to the
founding of IAI nearly 20 years
ago: Israel had to have an indepen-
dent maintenance base for its then
few and outdated civil and military
aircraft—and a starting point for
the technical development that
would, in time, build new ones and
boost the entire industry and econ-
omy. So IAI—then called Bedek
Aircraft—was begun with a hand-
ful of equipment and 70 dedicated
men.
Having accumulated valuable
experience in overhaul and re-
pair work—much of which called
for the ingenuity and resource
Israel has become famous for. —
IAI tackled full-scale aircraft
production in the late 50s, turn-
ing out Foam; Magister jet train-
ers under French license. A de-
cade later, IAI was-to convert
them, with conspicuous success,
for combat in the Six-Day War.
By this time, IAI had expanded
and diversified into an ultra-
modern complex dealing with all
aspects of aviation—and many
other fields relatgd to the sophisti-
cated technologies it had acquired.
IAI's plants and subsidiaries were
drawing •experts from the world
over, and with the great increase
in both Israel's needs and in aliya
after the war, new firsts soon fcl-
lowed: the Arava STOL (short
takeoff and landing) transport, the
Hist aircraft entirely designed and
produced here; the Western world's
first sea-to-sea missile, the , Ga-
brie]; the Commodore Jet er,eita-
five aircraft.
IAI's products and service
cover an immense variety of elep
tronics, hydraulics, instrument
tion, precision machining, reirst .
forced plastics, chemical processes
—to name but a few—with compu-
terized methods and rigorous qual-
ity control that make the newcomer
from the most advanced industrial
country feel at home.
With all these areas rapidly ex-
panding and demanding further
development, IAI is naturally
thirsty for manpower: skilled per-
sonnel in all aviation and metal-
working trades, technicians, engi-
neers, scientists.
IAI's staff already numbers more

JTA Daily News Bulletin

PARIS (JTA)—The Jewish Tele-

Australian JNF Projects
to Be Centered on Carmel

KEREM MAHARAL—A develop-
ment at Kerem Maharal in which
all Jewish National Fund projects
of Australian and New Zealand
Jewry will be concentrated was
dedicated here on the southern
slopes of the Carmel mountain
range, south of Haifa.
The area is known for its archeo-
logical discoveries, including the
skeleton of the "Carmel Man," an
evolutionary stage between the
Neanderthal and modern homn-
sapiens; and mosaic synagogue
floors, wine presses and other arti-
facts which attest to Jewish settle-
ment throughout biblical times.
Following Israel's War of Inde-
pendence, settlement was renewed
with the establishment of a co-
operative village by Czechoslovak-
ian immigrants, named after "Ma-
haral," the famous 16th Century
Rabbi Loew of Prague.
The JNF has begun an afforesta-
tion program on the slopes.

Anti-Jewish Bias Charged
as Black Blasts Program

NEW YORK (JTA) — Abraham
Gelb, executive director of Opera-
tion Belfrye, a project for poor
Jews in the Crown Heights section
of Brooklyn, said black legislator
State Sen. Waldaba Stewart has
come out against the Crown
Heights antipoverty agency be-
cause of the help it provides needy
Jews.
Crown Heights has been the
scene of sharp differences between
Jews and Blacks over such fund-
ing.'
Sen. Stewart and black Assembly-
man-elect Vander L. Beatty have
urged that the poverty agency be
closed until an election can be held
to involve "more of the commu-
nity."
Jews in Crown Heights have had
substantial representation on the
local community corporations
through which poverty funds are
channeled by the city's poverty
agencies.
Gelb said there was concern that
the activities of the black legisla-
tors might disrupt the work of the
antipoverty agencies.

AJCommittee Appeals:
End Death Penalty

of the American Jewish Committee

sentence handed down against Ro-

with conspiracy to overthrow the
government.
Philip E. Hoffman, in a state-
ment, cited the Universal Declara-
tion of Human Rights, promulgat-
ed by the United Nations in 1948,
which, he pointed out, "guarantees
to every human being, regardless
of race, religion or political opin-
ion, the right to life, protection
against cruel or inhuman punish-
ment, and the right to a fair and
public hearing by an independent
and impartial tribunal in the de-
termination of any criminal charge
against him."

British Aliya Lagging
Far Behind France

LONDON (ZINS)—Despite spe-
cial efforts of the aliya department
of the Jewish Agency to increase
immigration to Israel from Eng-
land, results are disappointing,
according to reliable sources.
In 1970, only 2,000 English Jews
went on aliya, some 700 of them
having acted on their own initia-
tive without any contact with the
aliya department.
In the same period, there were
6,000 immigrants from France,
even though the total Jewish popu-
lation there exceeds that of Eng-
lish Jews by only 70,000. (Jewish
population in France is 550,060,
while that of England is 480,000.)

LOS ANGELES (JTA) — The
Jewish Free Loan Association of
Los Angeles, formed 66 years a;;o
to encourage young Jews to enter
the teaching profession, also is
encouraging members of other
minorities, such as Mexican-Amer-
icans and Blacks, ot become teach-
ers, according to a report by its
executive director, Joseph Gold-
berg.
He reported also that another
area of changing service by the
agency, the second oldset Jewish
service agency in Los Angeles,
was that of aid to the small busin-
essman. Such loan demands are
declining, he said, because of the
disappearance of the traditional
"mama and poppa" type of enter-
prise. He described the changes
