Eban Gives Israel Labor Party Election Outlook
BY MAURICE SAMUELSON

LONDON — The Israel
Labor Party could only
win the forthcoming gen-
eral election if the two
sides who recently con-
tested its leadership knit-
ted together, according to
ABBA EBAN
former Israeli Foreign
Minister Abba Eban. The
two sides had to present a
united front and cam-
paign on the basis of the
platform adopted at the
party's convention in
February.
Eban, who backed De-
fense Minister Shimon
Peres in the Labor lead-
ership stakes, was 'ad-
dressing the 'Parliamen-
tary Labor"Friends of Is-
rael at the House of
Commons. He warned
that a stable Israeli coali-
tion would be established
only if Labor remained
the predominant political
force in the country.
Otherwise; Israel's
political life would be sub- •
jected to "atomization"
and would look more like
Italy and other countries
.where governments last
for six or seven months:A
stable coalition would
also be necessary for Is-
rael to present itself as a
viable partner for negoti-;
ations with the Arabs-.-
Because of the elections
May 17, the Israeli gov-
ernment could make no vi-
able commitment on peace
negotiations until June.
Nevertheless, the explora-
tions of peace prospects
initiated by U.S. Secretary
of State Cyrus Vance
should proceed, Eban said.
There were different
opinions about whether
to seek an overall settle-
ment' or to follow the
step-by-step approach.
Eban favored the former,
saying "We should not try
to avoid a major confron-
tation in which we put
against the Arab request
for withdrawal our own
vision for peace." But
even in a step-by-step ap-
proach, Israel should pre-
sent the general direction
in which it wants peace to
develop.
Assessing Arab at-
titudes, Eban said that
whereas the late Egyp-
tian President Gamal
Nasser stressed the
military option and
Soviet backing, President
Anwar Sadat preferred
economic development,
disengagement agree-
ments andcloser ties with
the United States. Syria,
too, was now more cal-
culating and pragmatic.
President Hafez Assad,
for example, had taken
account of Israeli suscep-
tibilities about southern
Lebanon.
Eban was not opposed
in principle to dealing
with the Palestine Liber-
ation Organization but if
it wanted to come to
Geneva it must pay the
price for admission. "It
must undergo a political
revolution, pick up the
phone and dial Israel
242-338. And I only hope it
won't be told that all lines
to Israel are engaged,"
Eban said.
The PLO, he noted, had
to realize that Arab recog-
nition of its status was no
substitute for Israeli and
American recognition
since all original parties tO
the Geneva conference
have a veto power over in-
vitations to new particip- .
ants.
Eban had

mands. "Every time he

Kaddoumi subtracts from
the sum of human know-
ledge," Eban said.

Eban questioned the
value of guarantees.

claimed to have special
interests thei'e. "The
world is today not or-
ganized for interven-
tion," Eban said. Viet-
nam, too, had shown that
the outcome of a struggle
was decided not by
guarantees but by the ba-
lance o f forces on the
ground.
But Israel valued her
friends, said Eban. In its
dialogue with the Arabs,
the Western world should
not sacrifice its own in,
tei'est in a strong Israel
and the historic affinities
it had with her. Eban paid
tribute to the British
Labor Party for sending
two senior fraternal dele-
gates to the Israeli Labor
Party convention "to.sus-
tain us in time of stress."
