4,000 Workers Continue Strike
Closing Israel Discount Bank

TEL AVIV (JTA) — The
Bank of Israel and the Asso-
ciation of Banks have intro-
duced measures to minimize
the difficulties caused by
the continuing strike which
has shut down all branches
of Israel Discount Bank.
Meanwhile, the hank's
management, in an adver-
tisement last Sunday, ap-
pealed to the 4,000 striking
employes to return to work
and settle their differences
through negotiations' since
the only victim of the walk-
out is the public. Officials
said temporary alternative
means are being worked out
with other banks.
Officials of Israeli banks
in New York denied that the
strike has any impact on
their operations.
Aaron Kahana, execu-
tive vice-president of Is-
rael Discount Bank, Ltd.,
which has two offices in
midtown Manhattan,
stressed that the Israeli la-
bor dispute is purely a lo-
cal matter having to do
with the objections of the
workers to the loss of-some
former benefits under Is-
rael's new tax reform
laws.
Israeli officials warned
that Israel's banking system
may collapse if there. is no
solution to the strike which
has forced the closing of the
bank's 150 branches
through which 20 percent of
Israelis do their banking
transactions.
Not only is there no solu-
tion in sight but workers in
other banks are threatening
to join the strike. Mean-
while, the non-striking hank
workers are supporting the
strikers hy refusing to ac-
cept Discount Bank checks
for payment. Many mer-
chants also are refusing to
accept such checks.

Meanwhile, the strike of
Israel's salaried engineers
neared its second weekend
with no negotiations and no
efforts for talks. With the
start of the new school year
only 10 days away, con-
struction of new classrooms
was stalled. New turbines in
power stations remained
uninstalled. Many other
public works were sus-
pended.
