Israel Roads
Most Crowded

Tel Aviv (JTA) — Israel's
roads are the most crowded
in the Western world, accor-
ding to economists at the
Bank of Israel, the country's
central bank, who cited a
comparative study drawing
on data from 18 Western
nations.,
Despite this, the Israeli
government allocates less
than 1.5 percent of its an-
nual revenue for road con-
struction, compared with an
international average of 3.5
percent.
Ave Ben-Bassat, director
of the Bank of Israel's
research department, told a
news conference that the
government would have to
spend some $3.3 million on
roads in the next four years
to bring the system up to par
and provide for the sudden
population increase caused
by the recent tremendous in-
flux of immigrants.
Mr. Ben-Bassat noted that
the government is currently
planning to spend only $2.5
million in that period.

Toshiba Denies
Boycott

New York (JTA) —
Toshiba, the giant Japanese
electronics firm, has denied
charges it supports the Arab
boycott of Israel and said it
is committed to doing busi-
ness there, the World Jewish
Congress reported last week.
The group released a copy
of an Aug. 19 letter that a
Toshiba executive sent to
the Israeli Embassy in
Tokyo, which says the firm
is "committed to direct in-
volvement in the promotion
and sales of our products in
Israel."
The letter was signed by
Taizo Nishiburo, Toshiba's
general manager of overseas
operation promotion. It was
written in response to a
report released by the WJC
in March.
The 22-page report had
cited Israeli Foreign Min-
istry officials who charged
that Toshiba was one of the
major Japanese corporations
that "refuse any business
dealings with Israel."
The report said Toshiba
had refused to sell mail-
sorting equipment to Israel's
Ministry of Communica-
tions.
Rejecting the charge it
boycotted Israel, Toshiba
said in the letter that it
views the Israeli market as
"a sophisticated and increas-
ingly important market for
its products."
