Dayan Hits Begin Distortion
JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Former Foreign Minister
Mosher Dayan ended eight
months of public silence on
Wednesday with a blast of
criticism against Premier
Menahem . Begin and his
government.
He specifically accused
Begin, in a Xnesset speech,
of distorting his proposals
for Palestinian autonomy to
make it appear that Dayan
advocated a weakening of
Israel's security in the occu-
pied territories.

the Labor Party in 1977 and
joined. Begin's Likud-led
government when it took

office that year, resigned
last Oct. 22. He retained his
Knesset seat as an indepen-
dent MK. Unlike Defense
Minister Ezer Weizman,
who resigned last week with
a bitter attack on Begin's
policies, Dayan departed
quietly and had little to say
in public about the govern-
ment's performance.
But Wednesday his
speech was fierce in tone
and scathingly critical of
the prime minister.
Dayan was incensed by
Begin's speech to the
Knesset Tuesday in
which he claimed, among
other things, that his
former foreign minister
wanted Israel to with-
draw unilaterally from
the West Bank and leave
security matters to local
Arabs. "How dare he
(Begin) put such words
into my mouth, things I
never said," Dayan de-
clared.
He said that Begin had
distorted, for the sake of
argument, proposals Dayan
had made regarding the
West Bank. Dayan said he
had never suggested that a
new target date for the au-
tonomy talks with Egypt be
set after the American
Presidential elections. He
said that when he called for
the dismantling of the mili-
tary government on the
West Bank he did not mean
the withdrawal of Israeli
Defense Forces, as Begin
had implied.

NEW YORK (JTA) —
Soviet President Leonid
Brezhnev has rejected an
appeal for clemency by two
Jews sentenced to death in
August 1978 for "economic
crimes," following a year-
long trial in the town of
Donetsk in the Ukraine, ac-
cording to the National
Conference on Soviet Jewry
(NCSJ).
Raphael Adzhiashvill, 49,
from Tblisi, married with
three children, and a man
named Abasov from Baku,
went on trial with 52 co-
defendants for allegedly
stealing factory surplus tex-
tile for resale, All but eight
of the defendants were .
Jewish.
Although the prosecutor
asked for sentences of 10-15
years for all' of the defen-
dants, four Jews received
death sentences. After ap-
pealing to the Supreme
Soviet of the USSR, two of
the four condemned Jews —
Gabriel Seplashvill and Ilya
Mikhalshvill — had their
sentences commuted to 15
years in jail.
