STRONG ISRAEL

If the tradition of including the Jewish
National Fund in the Will of every Jew were
invariably followed, sufficient resources would
be accumulated to ensure the future of the
young Jewish State on a sound basis of land -
development, social welfare, and justice.

A bequest to the Jewish National Fund
should be as traditional as having a Blue Box
in one's home.

You may want your bequest to be
dedicated to afforestation, to a village, a
Nachlah, to a children's play area, to perpetual
yahrzeit or kaddish, or to some form of
permanent tribute in the names of persons
dear to you.

Consult the Foundation for Jewish
National Fund, 22100 Greenfield, 968 0820.
They will gladly co-operate with you in
working out plans to meet your special
requirements, in strict privacy.

Sheikh Mohammed Ali
el-Jaabari, the former
Mayor of Hebron,
brought back from his re-
cent visit to Jordan where
he had a series of meet-
ings with King Hussein in
Amman.
The 80-year-old retired
politician, long a suppor-
ter of Hussein told him
that the "will for peace
east of the Jordan River is
equivalent to that west of
the river," Peres re-
ported.
Peres did not say
whether Jaabari brought
back a message from
Hussein. But the fact
that he received a warm
welcome in Jordan may
indicate that Hussein
agrees with Jaabari's pos-
ition that the PLO is not
representative of the
West Bank — this despite
Hussein's recently im-
proved relations with the
PLO.

Peres said that Jaabari
and his political line de-
served official Israeli en-
couragement. "Israel is
aware of the fateful ties
between the West Bank
and Jordan" and "the line
that Jaabari advocates
contributes to Israel's
political aims because Is-
rael does not intend to
annex the West Bank,"
Peres said.

The Defense Minister
played down Hussein's
new cordiality with PLO
chieftain Yasir Arafat.
He said that while Hus-
sein acknowledged the
1974 Arab summit con-
ference at Rabat as rec-
ognition of the PLO he
has not disengaged him-
self from the West Bank
and he distinguished be-
tween the terror organi-
zations and the land it-
self."
In a related develop-
ment, former Israeli De-
fense Minister Moshe
Dayan said in London
that he trusted the Unit-
ed States not to exert
pressure on Israel for ter-
ritorial concessions, that
he favored Defense
Minister Peres over Pre-
mier Yitzhak Rabin to
head the Labor Party and
the next Israeli govern-
ment and that he believed
the Arab states preferred
a political settlement
rather than another war
with Israel although they
were not yet ready for a
