reality shaping up, indi-
cated that he would allow
himself to be persuaded
by a majority of the
,Cabinet not to resign. The
Cabinet vote was 12-6.
A Cabinet source said
later that had Begin re-
mained adamant and gone
to the President, "a gov-
ernment under Shimon
Peres would have been
functioning within a week."
The source reasoned that
Labor would simply give the
same undertakings and
pledges to the religious par-
ties as Begin had signed last
year, justifying this to its
constituency by the overrid-
ing need to remove Begin
and set up an alternative
government.
Although the immediate
resignation threat is now
removed, the government
still faces tough tests in the
days and weeks ahead.
Wednesday there were
budget votes in the Knesset
and Rabbi Haim Druckman
(NRP), the man really re-
sponsibile for Tuesday's tie,
said Wednesday morning he
would once again vote with
the opposition. This would
be an even more serious and
embarrasing blow for the
government, for it would
mean that government-
introduced measures were
not getting through the
Knesset.
But
government
floor-managers were say=
ing Wednesday that if the
coalition can just hold on
for a few weeks, until
after the Sinai pullback,
things will start looking
up again.
After the withdrawal has
become a fait accompli, they
calculate, Druckman will
return to the coalition fold,
and possibly even Tehiya
will be prepared to cooper-
ate with the government
against the centrist-leftist
Knesset opposition instead
of teaming up with that op-
position as it did Tuesday
night.
But there were other
voices within the coalition
predicting elections by the
fall or at the latest by next
spring. These people
seemed to feel that Tues-
day's drama had shaken up
the political situation so
forcefully that a return to
the status quo was not
likely.
Wednesday's budget de-
bate was as bitter as Tues-
day's session on the no-
confidence motions. With
Druckman determined to
vote against Likud and the
votes of other hard-line co-
alition partners uncertain,
the government ultimately
postponed the budget mo-
tion.
The new budget was
scheduled to go into effect
next Thursday. However, if
the present parliamentary
stalemate continues, Israel
may enter the new fiscal
year, for the first time in its
history, with no approved
budget. Labor Alignment
sources said Wednesday
that key figures in the
Likud coalition offered
them a way to avoid such a
development, by passing in
the Knesset Finance Com-
mittee an agreed formula
for an interim budget which
would be approved as a pri-
vate member's bill instead
of a government-proposed
budget.
The no-confidence mo-
tions Tuesday were
triggered by the escalation
of violence on the West
Bank this past week follow-
ing the removal of the
elected mayor and town
council of El Bireh for refus-
ing to cooperate with the
civilian regime Defense
Minister Ariel Sharon set
up in the territory last year.
Although the West
Bank violence triggered
the motions, the Likud
coalition defectors were
all hard-line opponents
of Israel's planned with-
drawal from the Sinai
Desert next month in ac-
cordance with the Camp
David accords' and the
Israel-Egypt peace
agreement.
The debate was enlivened
by an angry personal clash
between Sharon and Labor
Party chairman Shimon
Peres. The Defense Minis-
ter accused Labor of "re-
sponsibility for the rise to
power of the PLO" on the
West Bank because it
allowed free municipal elec-
tions there in 1976. The
elections brought to office a
younger generation of
mayors who are staunch
Palestinian nationalists.

Sharon accused the
Labor-led government of
acting more harshly toward
the West Bank Arabs be-
tween 1967 and 1977 than
the Likud government has
during its five years in
office. Mapam MK Victor
Shemtov reminded Sharon
that he had served as Labor
Premier Yitzhak Rabin's
security adviser in 1976 and
as such shared responsibil-
ity for the policies.
Peres, in a low key
speech, criticized tY )v-
ernment for its West wank
policy, for "unnecessary col-
lective punishment against
the Golan Druze," for wor-
sening relations with the
U.S. and for using Ameri-
can loan money to buy
votes.
