JERUSALEM (JTA) —
The labor relations outlook
darkened after the Cabinet
resolved to stand firm in its
policy of a 15 percent wage
ceiling for civil servants.
Ministers explained after
the Cabinet session that
this was the only way to
fight inflation. But Histad-
rut warned that there could
be no further negotiations
on the basis of the Cabinet's
decision.
Teachers,
doctors,
engineers and many other
government employes are
threatening to strike in
support of wage claims
which, on the average, are
in the region of 30-40 per-
cent.
Immigration Minister
David Levy and Health
Minister Eliezer Shostak
are understood to have
urged the Cabinet to soften
its stand and agree to up the
15 percent ceiling by 5-6
percent. But Finance Minis-
ter Simha Ehrlich recom-
mended a tough and un-
yielding stand and was
firmly backed by Premier
Menahem Begin and a
majority of the ministers.
Meanwhile, the head of
the Manufacturers Asso-
ciation, industrialist Av-
raham Shavit, called on
the government and the
Knesset to revoke their
decision declaring Tues-
day, municipal election
day, a national holiday.

At the same time, the
government plans to slash
subsidies on a string of basic
commodities, starting
shortly and continuing in a
pattern of one commodity
each few weeks. This policy,
too, will have an immediate
impact on the cost of living
index as will the likely im-
minent rise in the prices of
cigarettes, alcohol and cof-
fee.

Accentuating the coun-
try's economic troubles has
been the effect — and the
predicted further effect---of
last weekend's hike in fuel
prices. Economists pre-
dicted that the fuel price
rise of between 18 and 25
percent would trigger an
eventual rise of some 3.5
percent in the overall "costof
living rate. Electricity
prices were also raised by 14
percent.

In huge advertisements
in the press Shavit
argued that the day off
work would cost the
economy IL 750 million,
as much as it costs, he
noted, to build a highway
from Beersheba to
Mitzpe Ramon deep in
the Negev.
A top Labor Party
economist, MK Gad
Yaacobi, announced im-
mediately that he supported
Shavit's appeal and would
press his party to endorse it
in the Knesset.
