Begin Control of Cabinet Unhindered by Weizman's Resignation

the occupied territories.
Weizman, who in an
angry letter of resigna-
tion flatly accused Begin
and his regime of throw-
ing away chances for
peace, had been consid-
ered a force for modera-
tion in the Cabinet. He
and Moshe Dayan are
credited with having
influenced Begin to make
concessions at the Camp
vid meetings in Sep-
.aber 1978 and in the
negotiations for the
peace treaty with Egypt
that followed.
But Begin's latest in-
ducements to the Liberal
Party have apparently de-
fused reported moves by
Weizman to join forces with
moderate liberals such as
Ehrlich and Leon Dulzin to

form a political center
under his leadership which
would confront Begin in the
next elections.
The Knesset easily de-
feated a motion of no-
confidence in the govern-
ment over Weizman's res-
ignation which was pre-
sented by Uri Avneri of the
opposition Sheli faction. It
had only five supporters.
The Labor Party, the
largest opposition faction,
abstained.
Weizman wrote that his
resignation "need not come
as a surprise" to Begin. He
had lately often discussed
his positions with the Pre-
mier, and had made no
secret of the differences he
felt were widening between
them over the "major policy
areas."
Weizman wrote of the
great hopes which the
public had had in the
Likud government after
the 1977 election. "As
high as were the hopes
then — so deep is the dis-
appointment now.

The Prime Minister re-
sponded with particular
outrage to Weizman's
charges regarding the peace
process. These, Begin as-
serted, were "immeasura-
bly serious" and the defense
minister knew full well they
were "totally groundless."
Begin published a
statement Monday night
— immediately upon re-
ceipt of Weizman's letter
— affirming his "national
duty" to refute these
charges. "The man who
has served for three
years as minister of de-
fense in the government
of Israel blames that
same government for
lack of progress towards
peace.

well that the charge is with-

Synagogue Will
Get a Facelift
BONN (JTA) — The
200-year-old former
synagogue at Ichenhausen,
destroyed during the in-
famous "Kristallnacht" in
November, 1938, will be re-
stored during the next four
years at a cost of one million
marks ($600,000) to be pro-
vided partly by the state
and local authorities and
partly through a fund-
raising campaign.
The baroque style build-
ing, which dates back to
1781, was used until re-
cently to store hay. Before
World War II, about 1,300
Jews lived in Ichenhausen,
comprising one-third of the
population of that south
German community. The
restored synagogue will
house a museum devoted to
the history of the Jewish
community.
