UJA National Chairman Herschel W. Blumberg re- ported high watermarks in regular campaign pledge to- tals for the 1982 Prime Minister's Mission ($15.8 million) and President's Mission ($9.6 million). These missions were supplemented by a private meeting with Israel Prime Minister Menahem Begin in New York, which added another $4.5 million in pre- viously unannounced regu- lar campaign •pledges. The combined $29.9 mill- ion realized from the three events represents an in- crease of 26.4 percent over regular campaign pledges by the same donors in the 1981 campaign. Blumberg reported that an unprecedented number of nearly 1,500 people came to Israel. The regular Cam- paign total of more than $8,000 realized by the fam- ily missions far surpassed prior summer achievements by similar groups, register- ing a 36.6 percent increase. The highest gain detailed in the UJA report was the 198 percent increase in reg- ular campaign pledges by national singles mission participants.

Holiday Message SANTIAGO (JTA) — President Augusto Pinochet Ugarte sent a Yom Kippur message to the Jewish community of Chile earlier this month on behalf of his government and himself to express "the feelings of my highest consideration" to the Jews of Chile for "con- tributing with energy and devotion to the development of this nation."

Goodman made these predictions in one of the 13 programs in the current "Dateline Israel" series prdduced by the Anti- Defamation League of Bnai Brith. In discussing the cur- rent military situation in the Middle East, Good- man said that because the Arab world is frag- mented he does not ex- pect a concerted attack upon Israel by "the con- frontation states." However, he stressed that Israel must prepare for this "worst case" possibility since the situation can change at any moment. Goodman also pointed out that even a limited war would be "devastating" be- cause of its economic as well as destructive impact upon a small nation whose military forces are 80 per- cent civilian and which is enduring high inflation. He went on to say that the major cause of the inflation is the rition's need to spend 40 percent of its budget on defense - Town's Newest Emigres Boast 4 Legs, Green Skin HAMAT GADER — This town, which until the Sy- rians were ousted from the Golan Heights in 1967, had been thought of as indefen- sible, is now perhaps Is- rael's most unique resort. Hamat Gader boasts hot springs, newly excavated Roman Ruins and Florida alligators. Last month, crates con- taining 120 alligators were shipped from New York to Tel Aviv via El Al Airlines. The reptiles were then trucked to Hamat Gader. Only one got away along the road and it was later recovered. None of the alligators died, a re- markable achievement according to Guy Ben- Moshe, who, along with helpers from various kibutzim in the area, built the shallow ponds which will serve as new homes for the reptiles. The ponds are fed by a spring that maintains a year- round water temperature of 82 degrees. Ben-Moshe, a native New Yorker who emigrated to Is- rael in 1969, recently spent two months on a Florida al- ligator farm learninghow to - take care of the animals. He believes the alligators, which cost Israel $50,000 will draw additional tourists to Hamat Gader. The plan is to breed them and let them multiply. Ben-Moshe promised American wildlife officials that none of the animals would be sold for slaughter.

Israel Expanding 3rd World Trade JERUSALEM (JNI) — Israel is continuing to assist Latin America and, to a les- ser degree, Africa with ag- riculture and economic aid regardless of diplomatic re- lations. Most recently, "Tahal," Israeli engineering consul- tants, was licensed to build bridges and roads worth "tens of millions of dollars" in an unnamed African country, Yediot Aharonot reported last week. Another "Tahal" prog- ram, to train local farming technicians, in only one year increased production in central and northwestern Costa Rica by 40 percent, Agriculture Minister Her- nan Fonseca Zamora said at the recent Agritech '81 ag- ricultral implements exhib- ition in Tel Aviv. Zamora visited "to find the most suitable Israeli methods to establish settlements on Costa Rica's frontiers." "Agridev" is assisting the Venezuelan dairy industry with a $40 million program. The Venezuelan delegation to Agritech brought $1 mill- ion worth of farming machinery, while negotiat- ing privately to purchase 1 ;500 Israeli cows. f P - Water-efficient modern irrigation systems remain central to bi-lateral cooper- ation. "Agridev" is also de- signing a factory for the manufacture of aluminum irrigation pipes in Ecuador. But Israeli irrigation sys- tems are laid together with farming facilities — for cot- ton In Argentina and Mexi- can vegetables — which provide food for local con- sumption as well as on-the- spot processing for export. Commercial and gov- ernment exchange bet- ween Israel and Latin America now totals $300 million, or 2.6 percent of Israel's yearly export. Asia accounts for 10 per- cent and the U.S. for 17 percent. The European commun- ity absorbs 65 percent, but competition and trade obs- tacles within the European market swell annually — risking Israeli export de- pendence. Meanwhile, the potential for expansion of Israeli trade with Third World na- tions as a result of Israel- encouraged rural develop- ment continues to grow. Joy and grief are never ' far apart.
