A survey carried out by the magazing showed that in 1976 Israel was 15th on the list of foreign countries favored by investors, corn- pared with 19th place five years earlier. Israel is now in about the same class as Switzerland, and is ahead of the Phillipines, Sweden, Scotland, Singapore, and Norway. The study also revealed that American capital views Israel as a better in- vestment risk than Saudi Arabia or Iraq, despite their petrodollar wealth. Friend of Zionism A JERUSALEM grove of 1,000 trees, in the International Women's Forest in Galilee, has been dedicated by the Jewish National Fund in memory 'of the British novelist George Eliot (pen name of Marian Evans- Cross 1819-1880). In her book, "Daniel Deronda," she spoke out in favor of the thesis of political Zionism. for the mass executions through gifts or promises, by abusing his power.or by providing information that led to the victims being seized for execution. Men- ten also is charged with- being a Dutch citizen in the service of the enemy. Louis Van Heynigen, Men- ten's new lawyer, an- nounced that he will call 60 witnesses to be heard by the examining magistrate before the start of the ac- tual trial. Van Heynigen told the hearing that he believed Menten was innocent and -that the - charges against him had already passed the statute of limitations. Menten said all the evi- dence against him should be thrown out because it had been given under coer- cion or by Soviet KGB agents. __ Soviet Film Bias VIENNA (ZINS)—Among the scenes in the new anti- Semitic propaganda- ' film being shown in the Soviet Union is one where the au- dience hears gun fire and its told, "This is how the Jewess Dora Kaplan tried to assassinate Lenin."

Menten, who was extra- dited from Switzerland where he fled shortly be- fore he was scheduled to be arrested, had to be indicted Monday because of a Dutch law that says no one can be detained for more than 102 days without a charge. His trial will be held May 6 to give both the prosecution and defense time to pre- pare for what is expected to be a complicated trial. Menten was charged with the murder of Polish citi- zens, mostly Jews in the Lemberg area in 1941, spe- cifically in Podhorodoce on July 7 and Uryce Aug. 27. The area is now part -of the Soviet Union and Dutch offi- cials recently interviewed witnesses there. s It is also charged that Menten rounded up victims 26206 W. 12 MILE RD. Just E.
