Israel Keren, deputy director of the Jerusalem region of the World Zionist Organization's settlement department said that plans call for the intensive cultivation of a variety of crops intended mainly for the European export market. The settlements are Nahal Naaran and Mitzpe Shalem. They are located in an area that grows melons, peppers, tomatoes, eggplant and corn. The mild weather in the Jordan Valley allows these crops to ripen early and they can be shipped to Western Europe before similar crops from other countries hit the market, Keren said. The Jordan Valley is not entirely dependent on ag- riculture. The settlement department is also work- ing on plans for tourism projects and perhaps even some form of light indus- try, especially for the summer months when ag- riculture and tourism are weak. As far as agriculture is concerned, one of the main problems in the area is water. In the Fat- z ael region, north of Jericho, a water demand of seven million cubic meters is forecast but a supply of only six million cubic meters is presently available. The settlement de- partment, in conjunction with the Volcanic Insti- tute of Agricultural Re- search in Rehovot has tried to raise fish in salt water in the Feshha Springs near the Dead Sea. Similar experiments are being conducted to grow fodder for cows and vegetables. Whoever speaks gossip, or listens to gossip, and whoever testifies as a false witness deserves to be thrown before the dogs. —The Talmud .." women accounted for as much as 89 per cent of the students. In the 7-14 age bracket, 86 per cent of the boys and 83 per cent of the girls were in an educational framework of one kind or another. .0" ONE MAN ORCHESTRA to 3 PIECE ORCHESTRA \ Freddy Sheyer \ 398-2462 The Fin e st in Musical Entertainment Rose Citron 968-0670 25900 Greenfield Landmark Bldg.
