National JNF planning 'Decade of Development'
New York (JTA) — A
unanimous resolve to fulfill
Israel's "decade of develop-
ment" was issued by some
300 delegates from
throughout the United
States who attended the
Jewish National Fund na-
tional conference on Sun-

Israeli U. gets
support group
New York — An Ameri-
can support group has been
formed for Everyman's
University, the Israeli
correspondence school
which serves some 12,000
students.
The group, American
Friends of Everyman's Uni-
versity, is headed by Jacob
Rothschild of London and
Arthur Fried, a Jerusalem
attorney.
The delegates voted
unanimously to endorse
JNF's current program of
settlement-site prepara-
tion, access road building,
land reclamation and ag-
ricultural research projects
currently under way with
the aim of progressing to a
stage of extended develop-
ment within 10 years.

dunes in the Negev and

At present, they reported,
only 25 percent of Jewish
ancestral soil in Israel has
been developed for settle-
ment and agriculture. Yet it
is in these regions that the
population must be in-
creased to offset the pres-
Speakers stressed that
because of Israel's current
economic crisis, work
towards reclaiming a large
portion of the land of Israel
is being jeopardized. Thus,
they pointed out, substan-
tial sums are needed to
complete urgent develop-
ment projects.

Addressing the luncheon
sessions, Sen. Daniel
Moynihan (D-N.Y.) paid
tribute to the late Sen.
Henry Jackson, his close
personal friend for many
years.

Grunwald, Managing
Editor Ray Cave and Chief
of Correspondents Richard
Duncan.
In response to a sugges-
tion that the expansion of
Israeli settlements on the
West Bank fosters a bad dip-
lomatic climate in the
region, Shamir replied:
"I don't think the estab-
lishment of some centers of
population in the areas of
Samaria and Judea has to
do with the climate of rela-
tions between us. After all,
in the Camp David accords
we obliged ourselves to
negotiate about the political
future of these territories.
We have never promised not
to live there, not to settle
there. In this part of the
world, in this country, Jews
and Arabs will live together
forever, and the question is:
What will be the political
expression of this reality?"

On the question of the lo-
cation of the U.S. embassy
in Israel, Shamir believes
"100 percent of Israel is for
having the Israeli capital in
Jerusalem" and that mov-
ing the embassy from Tel
Aviv to Jerusalem "is an
expression of the recogni-
tion of this.
"If there are some dif-
ferences (between the U.S.
and Israel) about the east-
ern part of Jerusalem, then
why not put the embassy in
the western part," Shamir
said.
