Yadin, an internationally prominent archeologist since leaving the army, made his remarks during an hour-long television inter- view in which he made it plain that his political ambi- tion was to achieve the Premiership. He said that if he thought a new political list with strong "dove-ish" leanings could "hold the balance" between the two major blocs — Labor and Likud — he would head such a list and seek to capture a following large enough the head a gov- ernment coalition. He said he would be "testing the wa- ters" during the next few months before deciding whether to enter next year's Knesset elections. Yadin said of his political credo that he firmly be- lieved in a "democratic Is- rael" and in a "Jewish Is- rael." He maintained that if the West Bank remained under Israeli rule, neither of those two vital conditions could be fulfilled. Only last week, Foreign Minister Yigal Allon spoke in the same vein when he admonished annexationists that if Israel- perpetuated military rule over the West Bank it would not be a dem- ocratic state and if it ab- sorbed the West Bank's Arab population with full and equal rights as citizens, it would cease to be a Jewish state. Yadin stressed that he did not favor Israel's return to its pre-June, 1967 borders because certain strategi- cally important positions must be retained. He op- posed the creation of a third state between "the desert and the sea" and seemed to envisage peace with a single Palestinian state that would embrace present-day Jor- dan and much of the West Bank. He said, however, that he favored negotiating with an authentic repre- sentative of the Palestini- ans, even Arafat, rather than with King Hussein. "What difference does it make if it is Arafat or an- yone else? We want to talk peace with an authoritative partner," Yadin said. Meanwhile, the Mapam political committee adopted a resolution that would de- fer for at least six months a decision as to whether Ma- pam remains in the Labor Alignment or submits a separate list in next year's Knesset election. The reso- lution will be presented to the Mapam convention next month. An Israeli Arab and a Druze leader who comprise Muadi and the former Mayor of Nazareth, Seif-A- Din Zuabi. Muadi occupies the post of Deputy Minister of Ag- riculture. He did not say in the letter that he intended to relinquish it. But he and Zuabi complained that they were consistently over- looked by the Labor Align- ment Leadership and never consulted. Muadi and Zuabi reportedly were piqued over a. meeting Rabin and Allon held last week with another Arab group calling itself "Change and Co-existence." YIGAL YADIN the "Progress and Develop- ment" Knesset faction closely linked to the Labor Alignment announced that they were breaking their ties with Labor and forming an independent faction of their own. A formal notifi- cation of their intentions was sent to the Alignment's Knesset whip, Moshe Wert- man, by Druze Sheikh Jaber beginner & strategy LESSONS aft. or eve. classes Q 20% OFF Backgammon sets 626-4643 ----,4-0,r0-x":504-00 ‘00,-0 - 1c0 - 14-0-x, MY SON "THE DOCTOR" Is Running For Office Oakland Community College VOTE JUNE 14 SARAH ABRAMSON Maxwell House Coffee Honors Famous Jewish-American Patriots REBECCA GRATZ 1781 1869 From the birth to the rebirth of the Natiom - of the most beautiful and gracious _ women of her time, Rebecca Gratz was born to wealth in Philadelphia and devoted her life to charitable causes. As a little girl she heard talk of the new Constitution, saw the drafters entering Inde- pendence Hall and giving birth to the Nation. She lived to see its rebirth after Lee's surrender at Appomatox. Among her friends was Washington Irving, who, on a visit with Sir Walter Scott in Eng- land, told the great author how RebeOca, at peril to her own life, had nursed Irving's fiancee, 18 year old Matilda Hoffman, dying from tuberculosis. Scott, never knowing Jews and indulging in the prejudices of the day, was struck with the compassionate Rebecca and the high esteem in which Philadelphia held the Gratz family. Scott immortalized her as the lovely and faithful Rebecca in his celebrated novel, "Ivanhoe." Rebecca Gratz fell in love with a man not of her faith.
