Israel hospitals'
closing averted

L

Tel Aviv (JTA) — The Treasury
came up with money this week to
avert the shutdown of govern-
ment hospitals throughout the
country which have been unable
to pay their bills. The hospitals,
denied further credit by suppliers,
are now able to restock their fuel
supplies and vital medical and
other items which had dwindled
to the danger point.
The funds were forthcoming
only after a series of meetings be-
tween Premier Shimon Peres and
Health Minister Mordechai Gur, •
who stressed the urgency of the
situation and the need to ensure
uninterrupted hospital services.
Peres called Finance Minister
Yitzhak Modai to insist that the
necessary funds be made avail-
able immediately.
Meanwhile, the outlook for
workers in the Haifa area is grim.
The giant Ata textile combine, the
largest single employer there,
won a one-month reprieve from
bankruptcy just before the new
year when the district court post-
poned its Dec. 31 shut-down order
until Feb. 3.
But there may be no breathing
spell for most of the 600 em-
ployees of the Haifa Shipyards.
They face immediate dismissal
because the defense ministry has
canceled orders for two large land-
ing craft for the navy, citing
budget cuts.
The shipyards were hit earlier
by cancellations from local com-
mercial shipowners. Only two
tugs for the government ports
authority remain in its order
books and these will require only
a small workforce.
The Zim Container Lines ships
are being "stretched." They are
cut in half and new midsections
added to increase capacity — but
when that job is completed the
yard will be left with repair and
maintenance work which will re-
quire no more than 200 workers.
