TV Advertising H of Issue in Israel
JERUSALEM (JTA) — The
Israel Manufacturers AssoCiation
went on record Tuesday against
the introduction of commercial ad-
vertising on Israel's nationally
owned television broadcasting serv-
ice.
The association's president, Mark
Moshevitz, said in a letter to fi-
nance minister Pinhas Sapir that
his group favored commercials in
principle but thought they would
be harmful at this time because
they would run counter to the gov-
ernment's policy of holding down
private consumption.
Moshevitz observed in his letter
that TV advertising was costlier
than other forms. He hinted that
Israeli manufacturers who had to
produce their own commercials
would be at a disadvantage com-
pared to importers who could use
commercials produced by their
principals abroad.
Daniel Recanati, director of the
Israel Discount Bank, one of Is-
rael's largest private banks, has
also counseled the government to
delay the introduction of commer-
cial TV because of the effect it
would have on private spending at
a time when inflation is a serious
problem.
Opposition to commercial TV is
shared by the Israel Newspaper
Publishers Association, which
fears the media would divert ad-
vertising revenue from
elreedy--finaneng daily
newspapers. Several Israeli dailies
have shut down because of fman-
cial difficulties in recent years.
The Israel Broadcasting Author-
ity also has strong reservations
about introducing commercial, ad-
vertising on television. As an inde-
pendent, quasi-public agency, it
has the power to do so without con-
sulting any higher authorities. But
it is expected to put the matter be-
fore the government.
A spokesman for the authority
told JTA that the question of com-
mercial TV would be submitted to

the government because of the far-
reaching importance of the issue
and its potential effects on con-
sumer habits in the country.
The government has set no date
to consider the matter and is not
likely to reach a decision without
prolonged discussion, the broad-
cast authority spokesman said. He
thought the cabinet would set up
a special committee to hear expert
opinion.
Israel's nationally owned radio
service has been carrying commer-
cials for seven years. Its annual
income from advertising is expect-
ed to amount to $2,000,000 in the
coming fiscal year.
Tour to USSR, Cites Soviet Jewry
NEW YORK (JTA)—New York
City's teachers' union has with-
drawn its sponsorship of a spring
study-tour in the Soviet Union after
many of its members objected to it
because of the treatment of Jews
in Russia.

The same issue published "two
typical letters" of objection from
teachers protesting the tour. One,
from Kenneth T. Tewel, a Queens
high school teacher said, "I would
consider it morally wrong for us
to encourage or support tourism to
the Soviet Union under the aegis
of our union" because of the treat-
ment of Jews.
The second letter, in a similar
vein, was signed by Henry Heit-
ner, a union chapter chairman and
44 other teachers.

JERUSALEM—"A quarter of a
million Jews in Israel still have
not been absorbed into the main-
stream of Israeli life," Louis A.
Pincus, chairman of the Jewish
Agency, told 250 couples partici-
pating in the United Jewish
Ap- peal's Operation Israel program.
The group, headed by UJA Na-
tional Chairman Melvin Dubinsky,
of St. Louis, is the largest to take
port in this year's mission to
Israel. During its 10-day visit,
prominent Israeli and Jewish
Agency figures informed the
Americans of the humanitarian
needs in Israel.

developed into a major issue, there
were many cancellations. The tour
will take place, but according to
the spokesman, without UFT back-
ing "it is not going to be a success-
ful venture."
The tour to Russia was one of
two Easter vacation travel proj-
ects sponsored by the UFT and
arranged by the Professional
Seminar Consultants, Inc,. The
Russian trip, described as a
"Soviet-American Symposiums on
Primary and Secondary Educa-
tion and Teacher Training Pro-
gram," was scheduled to take
place from April 1.17 and was
first advertised in the UFT news-
paper last Nov. zz.
Initial response was described
The broadcasting authority es-
timates that television advertis-
ing would yield about $2,100,000
in the first year and would
double that figure within the
first three years. Income from
license fees which every Israeli
must pay to own a radio or TV
set, is expected to reach $9,800,-
000 in the coming fiscal year.
The question that will face the
government is whether television
can support itself on license fees
which now amount to about. $29.75
per set but may have to be raised.
Commercial TV would enable the
broadcasting authority to bold the
license fee at its present level.
Another argument against com-
mercial TV on which many Is-
raelis agree is that coin
Lion willAggr
gram content.
"Despite the tense situation in
the Middle East," Pincus said,
"we expect more than 50,000
new arrivals to Israel this year,
and many. will be coming from
countries of oppression. They
will need housing, medical care,
clothing, job training, language
training and all the other serv.
ices that people have a right to
expect to help them make a
better life for themselves."
