The Weizmann Institute Hosts
Geneticists, Gets New Study
REHOVOT — The Weiz-
mann Institute of Science is
hosting a major interna-
tional conference on popula-
tion genetics and ecology,-
while at the same time it is
receiving recognition for
several of its research pro-
jects.
The 10-day conference
has brought together ex-
perts to examine the inter-
active effects of migration,
mutation and natural selec-
tion pressures, mating and
behavioral patterns genetic
forms and mechanisms of
sexuality, recombination
and other phenomena in-
volved in the evolutionary
development of animals and
plants.
Improved mathematical
definitions of these proc-
esses and careful evaluation
of field and laboratory data
would greatly aid the solu-
tion of many practical and
theoretical challenges, such
as those of practical geneti-
cists involved in crop breed-
ing, doctors engaged in ge-
netic counselling,
environmentalists, and evo-
lutionist theoreticians.
Some 40 scientists from
Europe, North America
and Australia have joined
20 of their Israeli col-
leagues in discussing var-
ious aspects of theoretical
and practical population
genetics and ecology.
Meanwhile, the factors
causing blood to clot when it
comes into contact with-cer-
tain surfaces — which in
turn may lead to throm-

complications — will be in-
vestigated by the institute's
Prof. Alexander Silberberg
and Israel Millo under the
terms of a recently awarded
two-year contract from the
Health and Lung Institute
of the U.S. National Insti-
tutes-of Health.

Near Lebanon
JERUSALEM — It was
reported here that in a re-
cent issue of Al Hadaf, the
Beirut newspaper of the
Popular Front for the Liber-
ation of Palestine, a man
identified as the com-
mander of PFLP military
forces in Kfar Shouba re-
viewed the fighting there
with Israeli troops who at-
tacked bases which had
been used to launch death
missions across the border
into Israel.
According to the newspa-
per, the unnamed com-
mander said:
"The suicide actions have
a great effect on the mind of
the Israeli soldier and the
common man in our land.
Asked whether there was
any coordination between
the various fedayeen groups
in south Lebanon, the com-
mander replied:
"There was complete
coordination between all the
factions in the Kfar Shouba
area, particularly between
the Popular Front, Fatah
and the General Command.

Habash Shuns
Peace Talks
TEL AVIV — In an inter-
view published in the Beirut
newspaper Al Bayrak,
George Habash, the leader
of the Popular Front for the
Liberation of Palestine, said
the fedayeen leadership
should "capitalize on what
has happened and remove it-
self completely from the
settlement framework that
has been presented (at Ge-
neva), and return to the na-
tional Palestinian position
as it has been determined by
our people's struggle over
dozens of years," i*was re-
ported here.
"By this I mean that there
is a minimal Palestinian
national position. This mini-
mum is the rejection of any
recognition of the Zionist
entity, a refusal to negotiate
with it and a strengthening
of faith in our masses' abil-
ity to shatter this entity.
"We must clearly and
openly declare our rejection
of any settlement based on
the continued existence of
this foreign entity."
Israel Has Ample
Gas Mask Supply
TEL AVIV (JTA) —
Should the Arabs attack Is-
rael's population centers
there are enough gas masks
stocked to equip most of the
country's 3.1 million citi-
zens, Brig. Gen. Yitzhak
Zeid, the civil defense com-
mander, said this week:
He also said that Israel
had spent more on air raid

ment agreements a year ago

years.
tions in a historical narra-
tive, avoiding the moral and
metaphysical abstractions
that have previously ob
scured the subject.
The first part of the
book, "The Final Solu-
tion," meticulously rec-
ords the origins and
growth of the ideology that
underlay the plan to an-
nihilate the Jews. It also
shows how, once - the Na-
tional Socialists came to
power, Hitler and the SS
involved the Germa

and party bureau
in carrying out their en-
deavors.
"The Holocaust,!" the sec-
ond part of the book, focuses
on the plight of the Jews
during the Nazi terror, de- _

Lebanese Soldiers
Reported at Odds
JERUSALEM (ZINS) —
Friction has developed be-
tween Moslem and Chris-
