Senator Carl Levin, who
set the tone for the day's de-
liberations and seminars,
indicated that the Reagan
Administration may be fi-
nally getting around to the
realization that Israel is not
the "heavy" in the Middle
East, but a stalwart friend
and ally.
He commended Secretary
of State George Shultz for

The special Project Re-
newal luncheon plenary on
Saturday, honoring Yehiel
Admoni, former director
general of Project Renewal,
will also introduce his suc-
ties. He alluded to U.S. De-
fense Secretary Caspar
Weinberger's statement
last Friday before the
American Jewish Commit-
tee as a welcome departure
from the sterile Adminis-
tration initiatives in the re-
cent past.
The opening session
was chaired by Edward
C. Levy, Jr., national vice
president of AIPAC, who
stressed the importance
of political awareness
and wide community in-
volvement to produce a
favorable political cli-
mate in Washington.
Arthur Chotin, AIPAC's
deputy executive director,
in an analysis of the Wash-
ington scene, said that there
is a great reservoir of pro-
Israel sentiment on Capitol
Hill, which AIPAC seeks to
cultivate and consolidate;
he cautioned, however, that
the multi-million dollar
campaigns of the Arab
Lobby, which is acquiring
greater sophistication and
effectiveness, cannot be dis-
counted.
He said AIPAC learned a
few lessons from the
AWACS debacle and has
adopted new and innovative
techniques to marshall
Congressional support for
Israel.

Hawkish Israelis
TEL AVIV (ZINS) — The
Modiin Ezrachi Institute
reports that recent polls
show Israelis becoming
more hawkish.
While half the public
supports a temporary halt
to building new settlements
in Judea and Samaria in
order to draw in Jordan to
the peace talks, more than
half oppose any territorial
concessions for peace.
Prime
Minister
Menahem Begin retains a
wide lead over all challen-
gers for Prime Minister.
Asked who was most qual-
ified for the position, Begin
was picked by 45.6 percent
compared to 15 percent for
the runner-up, former
President Yitzhak Navon
