Muriel Wetsman 354-4126 Hurwitz was opposed to a major pay increase for Israel's teachers which was supported by Hammer. The dispute had brewed for several weeks, and following Sunday's Cabinet vote in favor of continuing negotiations on the wage increase Hurwitz res- igned. The entire election debate and coalition maneuvering was postponed several days this week for the funeral of Sheikh Hamas Abu Rabia, a Labor MK who was mur- dered outside his Jerusalem hotel. He was shot several times at close range as he sat in his car outside the Holyland Hotel in the Bayit Vegan district, a favorite residence for Knesset members when Parliament is in session. Is- rael Radio said that the sheikh had recently warned that his political rivals sought to kill him and had said he would hire body- guards to protect himself. First reports said his assail- ants fled in a jeep. Israeli police have ar- rested six men in the case, including five Arabs and one Jew. Several of the Arab men live in a Bedouin vil- lage of one of Abu Rabia's chief rivals. Four of the men were arrested while driving a jeep near the village. Vicky Leebove 851-0789 PARIS (JTA) — French Jewish leader Jean Pierre-Bloch has been ap- pointed a grand officer in the Legion of Honor, one of the highest ranks in France's prestigious order. Pierre-Bloch, 75, is the president of the Interna- tional League Against Anti-Semitism and Racism and president of the French federation of Bnai Brith lodges. A former minister in Gen. Charles de. 12-qulle's wartime government, he played an active role in the anti-Nazi resistance move- ment during the occupation of France and at one time headed a branch of the Free French operations. He has played a leading role in Jewish demands for more energetic gov- ernment measures in the fight against anti- Semitism and was one of the main organizers of the mass demonstrations which followed the Rue Copernic synagogue bombing last October. It is generally believed that Pierre-Bloch's promo- tion to one of the highest ranks in the Legion of Honor is partially due to the government's attempt to improve its relations with the traditional Jewish es- tablishment and to defuse the tension in their rela- tions.
