ers of the Kiryat Arba com-
munity called upon the gov-
ernment to confiscate 12
Arab houses which were
owned by Jews in the past,
and move Jews into them.
Meanwhile, women from
Kiryat Arba are still oc-
cupying the old Hadassah
building in Hebron. Last
week, the military govern-
ment allowed them free
passage to and from the
building. The ban on entry
of others — including
newsmen — is still in force.
The women want the
building to be the first to be
resettled with Jews.
Last week, the military
government banned a
political rally by Arabs in
Hebron but at the same
time lifted some of the re-
strictions imposed over a
month ago on the West
Bank college town of Bir
Zeit, north of Ramallah.

ZOA's Novick
Hits LZA Head
NEW YORK (JTA) —
The leader of 'the Zionist
Organization of America
has accused the leader of the
Labor Zionist Alliance of
acting contrary to the de-
sired goal of a "united
Jewish community" in sup-
port of Israel.
Ivan J. Novick, president
of the ZOA, took LZA
president Prof. Allen Pol-
lack sharply to task for a
statement issued by Pollack
a week ago criticizing Is-
raeli Agriculture Minister
Ariel Sharon's recent call
for intensive Jewish settle-
ments on the West Bank
and Gaza Strip over the
next 20-30 years.
In a letter to Pollack,
Novick wrote: "You state
your concern for the need of
a 'united Jewish commu-_
nity.' The very fact that you
issued a public statement
serves the opposite pur-
pose."

Mayor Fahed Kawassme
of Hebron said the rally was
called as a demonstration of
solidarity with the- Arabs of
Nablus in their protest
against the new Gush
Emunim settlement of Alon
Moreh and as a protest by
Hebronites against '"the
provocative behavior of the
residents of Kiryat Arba."
Meanwhile, initial work
began on Karnei Shomron
Two, a new settlement in
northern Samaria. Bulldoz-
ers began the groundwork
for a dirt road from the main
road to a nearby hill, the
site of the new settlement.
Karnei Shomron One
already exists in the area,
about a mile away from
the new settlement. The
plans call for an eventual
linkage between the two
settlements, which will
become- one urban cen-
ter.
A group of Gush Emunim
settlers is scheduled to
move into the place as soon
as the initial infrastructure
work is completed in two
months time.

the new settlement drew a

championship in _Turin,
Italy. But Israelis were still
excited that their team was
the runnerup, the highest

Israeli quintet.
The Israeli team's sur-

came after it beat Czechos-
