A special prize was given to conductor Zubin Mehta, the Indian-born maestro who has been conductor and musical director of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra since the mid-1960s. He held that position in tandem with being music director of the New York Philharmonic Or- chestra, from which he is resigning this season. Mr. Mehta, who flew to Israel at the outset of the Gulf war, was awarded for his contributions to music in Israel. He did not qualify for a regular Israel Prize only because it is restricted to citizens of Israel. The Israel Prize is Israel's highest civilian award. This year's recipients are Professor Haim Beinart, one of the country's foremost historians; Professor Naomi Feinbrunn- Dotan, a pioneer of botanical studies in Israel; Justice Moshe Landau, former president of the High Court of Justice; and Pro- fessor Daniel Friedman, a leading jurist and author of many studies on Israeli law. Also, Professor Elhanan Helfman, an economist; Pro- fessor Shmuel Agmon, a mathematician; Professor Dov Fruman, a leading com- puter engineer; Dvora Ber- tonov, a veteran dancer; popular actor Yossi Yadin; Miriam Ben-Porat, a former member of the High Court of Justice and presently state comptroller; and in- dustrialist Stef Wertheimer. The institution awarded the prize was the Hesder Yeshiva, which combines rabbinic studies with military training. The biggest round of ap- plause went to Justice Ben- Porat, who has been much in the public eye lately for her report charging the Israel Defense Force with having distributed defective gas masks to civilians during the Persian Gulf crisis. Asian News aper Runs Anti-Semiti Article Sydney, Australia (JTA) — A viciously anti-Semitic ar- ticle originally published in the mass-circulation Hong Kong Daily News has been condemned by the Australian Chinese Daily, a locally published Chinese- language newspaper that reprinted it. The newspaper's ad- ministrative manager, Charles Ng, said the article was not typical of the Hong Kong Daily News and said the paper would publish a i. clear and unequivocal ). dissociation. Robert Klarnet, public af- fairs director of the New South Wales Jewish - Board of Deputies, said Australia's Chinese community, estimated to number over 200,000, had a history of friendly relations with Australian Jewry. Publication of the article was "an aberration," Mr. Klarnet told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. The au- thor, who used the pseudonym "Ah Wei" (Mask), posed the question, "Why did Hitler kill the Jews?" and answered that "Jews have been cursed by God," the Jews "sold out Jesus" and "Jewish people know how to make profits" better than anyone else. "Everywhere they go they make money and fleece peo- ple," the anonymous author claimed. The author insisted, "I am definitely not inciting racial hatred. It is just that those heartless, rich, cruel and ruthless warmongers, selfish and avaricious people exist on this planet and unitedly extort from and harm weak peoples. This is a disaster for humanity." Israelis Relax Love The Bomb - New York (JTA) — The threat of non-conventional warfare has apparently prompted Israelis to offer their Defense Ministry a vir- tually unanimous endorse- ment to develop nuclear weaponry. In a public opinion survey conducted by Tel Aviv Uni- versity's Jaffee Center for Strategic Studies, 91 percent of the respondents favored the expansion of Israel's nuclear capability, up by 15 percentage points from 1987.
