Genscher to Visit
Israel Soon
BONN (JTA) — Foreign
Minister Hans-Dietrich
Genscher is expected to visit
Israel in April or May.
Chancellor Helmut
Schmidt shows no signs of
accepting a seven-year-old
standing invitation to visit
Israel.
According to one of his
aides, he sees no reason to
change his mind. But the
Bonn government has obvi-
ously decided to maintain
high-level contacts with Is-
rael, especially after its two
major partners in the Euro-
pean Economic Community
(EEC), Britain and France,
have been conducting a
dialogue with Jerusalem on
the foreign ministers level
or have declared their in-
tention to do so.

Ayatollah Blasts Fand Plan
GENEVA (JTA) — The
Iranian delegation to the
United Nations issued a
scathing denunciation of
the plan proposed by Crown
Prince Fand of Saudi
Arabia last August.
The statement, by the
Ayatollah Ruhollah Kho-
meini, declared: "It is a dis-
grace for Arabs who rule be-
cause of their own interests
to accept this plan. If all of
us die, it is better than to be
displaced at the hands of
Zionists and Americans."
Although the Fand plan
no more than implied ac-
ceptance of Israel by the
Arab world if it withdraws
from all occupied Arab ter-
ritories, including East
Jerusalem, and allows the
establishment of a Palesti-
nian state, the Iranian
statement asserted that
"One of the points of the
plan is that Isral should be
recognized."
The statement added,
"If all the points were
',ositive, this point in it-
self would be enough to
negate the whole plan."
The Iranian statement
interpreted "peace with Is-
rael" as meaning "that
should any country or man
decide to do anything
against these plunderers,
then all Moslems in the
region must attack other
Moslems to preserve Is-
they hope to increase sales
to American markets,
which have till now taken
only a small percentage of
Israeli food exports. The
AGREXCO (Israel Agricul-
tural Export Co.) points out
it costs as much to ship to-
matoes to New York from
California as it does from Is-
rael.
Israel's agricultural ex-
ports show some good
examples of "carrying coals
to Newcastle." Israel ex-
ports flowers to Holland,
wine to France, goose, liver
to Germany and matzot to
nearly all countries of the
world.

Israel's main market
for its foodstuffs is in
Europe, and government
spokesmen admit the
validity of manufactur-
ers' complaints that in-
sufficient attention was
paid to their needs when
drawing up agreements
between Israel and the
European Economic
Community (EEC).
Official spokesmen say
they hope to rectify this
situation in the periodic re-
view of the agreements
called for in the formal
treaties and EEC adherence
arrangements.
