New Kibutzim
for the Negev
TEL • AVIV (JTA) — "If
the state will not conquer
the desert, the desert may
conquer the state." This was
a frequent warning by the
late Premier David Ben-
Gurion, who had always
urged Israelis to settle the
Negev.
Last week, 20 families in-
augurated a moshav south-
west of Beersheba, the first
new settlement in the
Negev since Ben-Gurion's
own kibutz, Sde Boker, was
established 27 years ago.
The moshav, which is
under the auspices of the
Labor Party's settlement
movement, is called
Ashelim (Tamarisk), the
tree that grows in the des-
ert. It is the same tree that
Abraham planted when he
arrived in Beersheba.
The moshav is called
Ashelim because "it is a
tree under which one
feels coolest in the des-
ert," explained President
Yitzhak Navon at the in-
auguration ceremony. He
expressed the hope that
Ashelim would bloom
again.
Two new kibutzim are
also scheduled to be estab-
lished in the Negev before
the end of the year, Telalim
(dew) and Retamim (broom
bushes).
A crisp, fresh salad,
baked potato, fresh vegetable
and crusty roll go with your
steak.
Tempting pastries
and gourmet-blend coffee top
off your meal. (On Night Coach
nonstops, enjoy a late
deli snack with
champagne.)
