TEL AVIV (JTA) — Widespread reports in the Israeli media that Premier Menahem Begin was con- sidering calling for new elections, possibly as early as next February, to in- crease the Likud's Knesset strength, have been denied by a spokesman for the prime minister's Office. According to the reports, Begin has asked the Justice Ministry if there was a legal basis for early elections and was told that a special law dissolving the present Knesset could be adopted.

Micha explained to her that the Ashkenazim "got culture," were better at reading and thinking and come from Europe and Rus- sia. The Sephardim, he told her, come from eastern countries and "are like the Arabs." non-school Zara's friends were Raif and Daud, both Arabs. Zara liked Raif for his looks and ideas. He believed "birth, race, religion, class, even sex were acci- dental factors and should be ignored." Daud, an Arab nationalist, refer- red to his friend's philosophy as "Raif's grand delusion." Ruth, Zara's mother, dis- approved of her daughter's association with Raif. Neither did Raif's family approye of their son's friendship with a Jewess. Following graduation from high school, Zara and the other graduates joined the armed forces. The girls served two years, the boys three years. At age 20, Zara finished her military service and re- turned to Tivon where Raif and she resumed their love affair. Unexpectedly, Raif was arrested, held incom- municado by the military police, and was accused of being a member of the PLO, possessing weapons, planning ter- - FIRESTONE I ; But political experts doubt that he ,could muster the 61 votes in parliament necessary to pass it. According to the media reports, Begin reasons that his popularity -is at an all time peak and new elections would substan- tially increase Likud's slim majority over the opposition Labor Align- ment which is presently seriously divided. He would regard the out- come of the elections as a referendum on Israel's oc- cupation of the Golan Heights and any other mea- sures he might take. Some officials said Begin leaked his inquiry to the Justice Ministry to put his coalition partners on notice that they had better support his policies. The premier reportedly was annoyed with the Agudat Israel party for not voting on the Golan anne- xation bill and for objecting vociferously to delays in the payment of special subven- tions for their yeshivot and other religious institutions. 69c $2 69 A proverb is one man's wit and all men's wisdom. — Lord John Russell lb.
