George Shultz in two weeks
of shuttle diplomacy be-
tween Jerusalem and Be-
irut, "is not yet a full peace
but still and end to the state
of war." He was referring
apparently to the provision
ending the state of bellige-
rency between the two
countries.
"Accept the agree-
ment," Shamir declared.
"There is no real alterna-
tive. The alternative of a
long Israeli occupation of
south Lebanon is im-
possible and the
Lebanese army itself is
too weak to prevent the
return of chaos to the se-
curity zone. Hence, the
concept of the security
arrangements agreed to,
based on the demilitari-
zation of the security
zone to ensure that the
PLO will not return there
and the establishment of
joint patrols with the
Lebanese army in coop-
eration with Maj. Saad
Haddad's forces,"
Shamir said.
He appealed to the
Lebanese goveimment not
to be deterred from signing
the agreement. Discussions
are still going on regarding
the clarifications requested
by Israel but signirig the
agreement will ensure the
way to peace and co-
existence."' The Foreign
Minister said. He assured
Syria that the agreement is
not aimed against any coun-
try. "The- extremist state-
ments from Damascus of
late are baseless," he said.
Shamir warned that if the
PLO and Syrians do not
withdraw from Lebanon,
"Israel will be free to act in
its own interests." He said
Israel's withdrawal to the
international boundary was
conditional on the with-
drawal of all foreign forces,
the return of all Israeli pris-
oners of war and the return
of the bodies of Israeli
soldiers killed in action.
Peres responded by not-
ing that what had originally
been intended as a three-
day operation (the Peace for
Galilee campaign) had be-
come a 365-day war with
very heavy casualties and
no end in sight. He said Is-
raeli soldiers are now
spread out all over Lebanon,
exposed to terrorist attacks.
"There is a war of attrition
along lines our soldiers are
not used to and the Russians
are back in the area," Peres,
said. "The Syrians have
suddenly found themselves
with veto power and the
PLO is moving back into
Lebanon."
According to Peres, the
end of the state of war
with Lebanon cannot be
hailed as a victory be-
cause Lebanon has not
really been in a state of
war with Israel for 35
years, since the armistice
agreements of 1949, be-
yond which the present
agreement does not
really advance. Peres
contended the present
security arrangements
are worse than before the
war and during the fight-
ing more Israelis died

than in all the terrorist at-
tacks from Lebanon in
three decades. He said
the government not only
mishandled the war but
made a mess' of the
negotiations which drag-
ged on for seven months.
Peres proposed that Israel
give Syria a deadline to re-
spond to the agreement. I-fe-
suggested June 5, the first
anniversary of the start of
the war in Lebanon. If they
do not comply, Israel should
withdraw unilaterally to
the 28-mile security zone
which would be easy to de-
fend and fight any war of
attrition. He said Maj. Had-
dad and an international _
force could then step in and
enable Israel to bring its
forces home.
The debate came on the
heels of saber-rattling by
Syria and the Soviet Union,
blasting the proposed troop
withdrawal agreement.
Syria was also reportedly
building up its forces- in the
Bekaa Valley and, in viola-
tion of last summer's cease-
fire agreements, was truck-
ing armed PLO terrorists
back into Lebanon.
Israel was also concerned
by the sudden departure
from Beirut of families of
the Soviet diplomatic com-
munity there.
Maj. Haddad predicted
that the troop with-
drawal accord "will
never be implemented,"
while at the same time
south Lebanon mer-
chants staged a' one-day
general strike on Monday
to protest the agreement.
Israelis were concerned
by continued fighting along
the Bekaa Valley lines and
in 'the Shouf Mountains.
Twelve Israelis were killed
and more than 20 wounded
over the weekend.

Nation" program last Sun-

Pressure On
Kosher Prices
NEW YORK (JTA) —
The New York City De-
partment of Consumer Af-
fairs, which makes a weekly
comparison of retail food
prices in some two dozen
groceries and supermar-
kets, made a special study of
kosher food prices during
March and April which
indicated a slight drop in
the prices of some kosher
foods before Passover, this
year, according to City
Councilman NOach Dear, a
Brooklyn Democrat.
Dear, who was chairman
of a City Council hearing on
the recurrent problem of
sudden jumps in kosher
product prices before
Passover and the High Holy
Days, told the Jewish Tele-
graphic Agency he felt that
"public pressure" had
brought the price declines.
