Keego Harbor, Michigan 48033 Continued from Page 1 the Israeli authorities. "Why didn't they balance her story," Mrs. Dulzin re- sponded, "by interviewing someone who had a family member killed by terrorists? Terrorism came first, then the body searches. At least the woman was allowed into Is- rael. Israelis are not allowed into Arab countries, nor the Soviet Union or Malaysia, or right now our table tennis team into India." The only ex- ception in the Arab world is Egypt, which signed a peace treaty with Israel. Although she is concerned by the media's shaping pe- rceptions of Israel, she wel- comes the opportunity to be interviewed by the general press, radio and television. De- troit Zionist Federation offi- cials Norman Naimark, Henry Faigin and Karen Katz were trying to arrange appearances for her this week, but most of her busy ten-day schedule in Detroit is before Jewish groups. Those groups, she says, can be defined by their age. "The middle age and older groups are more accepting of Israel be- cause Israel has changed the world for the Jews." Young pe- ople, she said, take Israel for granted. They are more critical and look at the negatives. If those negatives are shaped by the media, however, they "should be taken with a grain of salt." As an example; she pointed to her view of Detroit as shaped by that morning's television reports: "Murders, robberies, rapes on campus — these are the exceptions, not the rule. It is the same with Israel. You cannot generalize." Israel has been changing, and will continue to change as its society matures, Dulzin said. She credits the middle of the Israeli political spectrum — Labor's • right wing and Likud's left wing — for Israel's peace, economic and social pr- ogress. But the political middle has paid a high price by corn- pensating the other factions and Mrs. Dulzin advocates a change to direct elections and members of the Knesset repre- senting geographic districts. Israel's political system worked well hi the 1950s, she said, when two-thirds of the people had no experience with democracy. She compared Is- rael's system to the machine politics and party bosses in the U.S. during the waves of im- migration. "As bad as that sounds, at least the bosses took care of the people. But now Is- rael is a vibrant democracy, mature enough to handle the change." In the U.S., a right- wing Republican administra- tion or a left-wing Democratic administration would not have that great an effect on the daily life of the American people, "but in Israel, the government makes life-and-death deci- sions. It is time that we had direct input" instead of the pe- ople voting for a party and the party electing the representa- tives. Israel's maturing society is also evident in her economic problems, "where the normal is abnormal." Mrs. Dulzin blamed Israeli emigration (yerida) on the enormous tax burden (60 percent tax rate). "For our children, the outlook is not bleak, but upsetting. It is difficult for a young couple to set up a home. So we have pe- ople leaving. "They are not afraid of the big battles, but the little battles. The big battles are heroic, but the little battles are enervating. The people get demoralized." The second biggest item (af- ter defense) in Israel's national budget is debt repayment and Mrs. Dulzin bristles at any suggestion that Israel has been living too highly. "The Six-Day War cost us $32 million and the Yom Kippur War cost 20 times that amount." She believes the economic situation is changing because Israel's galloping inflation is now under control, due in part to the drop in 'oil prices, and Israel's exports to Europe have increased because they are cheap in terms of European currencies. The change, however, is leading to changes for Israeli society. "In the 1950s," she ex- plained, "we could set up fac- tories to produce a product with 100 workers or we could set up factories to produce the same product with 2,000 work- ers. We opted for the 2,000 — it served the state's social needs but was a disaster when it came to dollars and cents. "Now, 20-30 years later, pe- ople are havin-g to be re- trained. It has led to some so- cial unrest." DEDICATED TO • KNOWLEDGE, ETHICS AND CONSUMER PROTECTION.

They said if their visit was publicized they might be called home. The Israeli authorities cooperated. The group was greeted at Ben-Gurion Airport by Labor MK Yitzhak Peretz, who is of Moroccan origin. He told re- porters that their visit was un- official, though the Moroccan government certainly was aware of it. He said the men, who are farm-owners, represented pri- vate firms and were interested in Israel's poultry and dairy industries and its banana plantations.
