Affirms U.S.-Israel Friendship WASHINGTON (JTA) — Former Israeli Premier Golda Meir said after a 45- minute meeting with Presi- dent Carter at the White House Tuesday that despite their differences Israel and the United States continue to be "very friendly govern- ments." She told reporters that "Israel is always con- scious of the fact that we don't have a better friend than the U.S." And, there- fore, a misunderstanding, a disagreement hurts more." Mrs. Meir visited the White House at the invitation of the President. Mrs. Meir stressed that she was here as a private person, not as a repiesenta- tive of the Israeli govern- ment and said that it would be improper for her to dis- close what the President said at their meeting, but she acknowledged that the subject of their conversa- tion was the Middle East. She praised the President as "very gracious, very kind, he listened to What I had to say." She said she had no doubts about his "good intentions," but added, "people with the best intentions can make mistakes." The 79-year-old former Israeli leader was vehement in proclaiming Israel's unwavering opposition to a Palestinian homeland or state, claiming that such entity would be "a threat to Israel's existence and "is not necessary for the Palestinians." • During her visit, Mrs. Meir visited Sen. Hubert Humphrey to extend good wishes and gratitude. In New York, a record amount of $15.1-million in advance Israel Bond com- mitments for 1978 was obtained at a national din- ner in honor of Golda Meir under the auspices of the Israel Prime Minister's Club, which she founded when she occupied that office. The dinner was followed by a special pre-opening performance of "Golda," the play about Mrs. Meir's life, with the Israeli leader and approximately 1,000 Israel Bond subscribers in attendance. Purchases of Israel Bonds at the dinner ranged from $500,000 to $25,000. Anne Bancroft has the title role in the play. Mrs. Meir, who is here on a private visit, was heavily guarded by police and secu - - rity men, particularly at the theater. Mrs. Meir declared that "we have one purpose and that is the continuity of the Jewish people and we have never wavered in our belief that we would be free in our own homeland." In an obvious reference to recent discussions with the United States, she said that "we know better what is good for Is" and no one could make Israel's freedom "depend- ent on the wishes of Ara= fat." She added, "Even if the PLO recognizes us, ws,,! still won't be safe." a.m. Monday, WIID (1090), an all Yiddish program of music news, interviews and other features, with Lou Levine.

JNF to Plant Childrens Forest NEW YORK—Under the patronage of President Eph- raim Katzir of Israel and of Prime Minister Menahem Begin, the Jewish National Fund is launching a vast "Jewish Children's Forest" in celebration of the forth- coming 30th anniversary of Israel's independence next May. The forest will be planted by the JNF on an area of 7,000 dunams of land at Goren in western Galilee, some 26 kilometers east of Nahariya. The forest will not only help to reclaim and beautify this hitherto neglected Gali- lee region; but will serve as a joint effort of Israeli and American Jewish students to commemorate Jewish children who perished in the Holocaust and, more recently, at the hands of Arab terrorists at Ma'alot.'
