SMALL BEQUESTS
BUILD A
STRONG ISRAEL
If the tradition of including the Jewish
National Fund in the Will of every Jew were
invariably followed, sufficient resources would
be accumulated to ensure the future of the
young Jewish State on a sound basis of land
development, social welfare, and justice.
A bequest to the Jewish National Fund
should be as traditional as having a Blue Box
in one's home.
You may want your bequest to be -
dedicated to afforestation, to a -village, a
Nachlah, to a children's play area, to perpetual
yahrzeit or kaddish, or to some formof
permanent tribute in the-names of persons'
dear to you.

Israel Settlement Policy Criticized,
Work Halted to Hear Arab Appeals
UNITED NATIONS — A
UN Security Council study
charged that Israel is using
"often coercive" methods to
_force Arabs to surrender
landg in the West Bank and
other occupied territories to
make way for new Jewish
settlements.
The .study ch-arged that
Israel's treatment of the
Arab population in the West
Bank, the Gaza Strip and
the Golan Heights violated
both the Fourth Geneva
Convention and Security
Council resolutions dating
back to 1967.
The study was based on
the findings of a three-man
commission appointed by
the Security Council last
March at the request of Jor-
dan.
The commission toured
Jordan, Syria, Egypt and
Lebanon last May to hold
hearings an4 gather in-
formation on Israel's set-
tlement policy. Citing
what it considered the
anti-Israel character of
the resolution that
created the commission,
Israel refused to cooper-
ate or allow members to
visit territories they were
assigned to investigate.
Meanwhile, the Israel
Supreme Court issued a
temporary injunction halt-
ing the fencing off of a
3,500-dunam site at Salfit
on the West Bank intended
for the expansion of the
Jewish settlement of Ariel
near Jenin.
Local Arabs who claim to
own parts of the land were
given 15 days to pinpoint
their claims. The govern-
ment will then be required
to show cause why the land
should not remain open and
unfenced.
The court order does not
apply to work in the settle-
ment itself. The com-
plainants produced sworn
affidavits from two mem-
bers of the Sheli faction, Col
(res.) Meir Payil and Gen.
(res.) Mattityahu Peled,
stating that the land the
government proposes to at-
tach to Ariel has no security
value nor, in fact, does the
settlement itself.
statement which was chal-
lenged by other ranking
officers and was rejected by
the court.
The army in fact has .
made it clear that it does not
consider any and all tracts
of land on the West Bank to
be of security value. State
Attorney Gavriel Bach pre-
sented the army's position
to the SUpreme Court last
week. -
He argued that a 500-
dunam tract seized for the
settlement of Mattityahu in
the Ramallah area was im-
portant for security because
it is boated only 12 kilomet-
ers from Ben-Gurion Air-
port and could be used by an
enemy to disrupt air traffic
by rocket fire.
But in the case of the
Jaabari hill outside Heb-
ron, the army refuses to
assert any security claim.
For that reason the gov-
ernment rescinded its
earlier orders to seize the
hill for the expansion of
the Orthodox township of
Kiryat Arba, a Gush
Emunim stronghold ad-
jacent to Hebron.
In a related development,
a special bill that would
expedite the government's
seizure of Bedouin lands in
the Negev to build two new
U.S.-financed air bases was
cleared by a special Cabinet
committee headed by Pre-
mier Menahem Begin and
will be presented in the
Knesset by Finance Minis-
ter Simha Ehrlich early
next week;-officials
The measure would em-
power the Israeli
authorities to evict the Be-
douins after a 90-day notice,
but gives them the right to
appeal.
Unlike regular land sei-
zure proceedings, the Be-
douins will not be allowed to
challenge the seizure orders
before the courts in advance
of their eviction. They will
be granted the right of ap-
peal, first to a special tri-
The ruling was the
third intervention by the
Supreme Court in West
Bank settlement activi-
ties in recent weeks. In
the first, concerning
lands at Bethel, the court
upheld the government's
right to seize privately
owned land if it is needed
for security purposes. In
the second, the court or-
dered a halt to the con-
struction of the Gush
Emunim settlement of
Mon Moreh near Nablus
until the government
supplies proof that it is
necessary for security.
The new court order ,em-
phasized its insistence on
proof of security needs.
MONTREAL (JTA) —
The Canada-Israel Com-
mittee gave a dinner in
honor of Canada's new Am-
bassador to Israel, Joseph S.
Stanford and held a farewell
reception for Israel's outgo-
ing Ambassador, Mordechai
Shalev.
Stanford, who will re-
place Ambassador Edward
Lee, joined the Canadian
foreign service in 1960 and
has served in Paris, Bonn
and Jamaica.
Shalev said he is leaving
the Israeli foreign service
because he has reached the
retirement age, but intends
to give lectures and write
articles on foreign affairs.
He and his wife will live in
Jerusalem.
Chief of Staff Gen.
Raphael Eytan is due to
submit a sworn affidavit at-
testing to the security value
of Alon Moreh. Originally,
he had submitted only a

bunal of top level civil ser-
vants and after that to the
courts over, thecompensa-
tion in money or land they
are offered.
Bedouin leaders have
complained bitterly that
they were not getting the
same treatment as
Jewish settlers who will
have to evacuate the
Rafah salient 'of Sinai
when it is returned to
Egypt.
Government officials, de-
fending the bill, stressed
that the land must be seized
soon because work on the
air fields must be completed
within three years under
terms of the Israeli-
Egyptian peace treaty and
normal land seizure pro-
ceedings can drag out for
years.
They said further that the
Bedouins have no title to
about 95 percent of the land,
only possessors' rights; that
they will be offered compen-
sation at rates in excess of
the normal level for similar
evictees; and that they will
be able to appeal on the
question of compensation.
