ship in a regional bloc is
effectively a precondition for
nomination to the Security
Council and other prominent
U.N. posts.
But the first issue raised
was the fate of Israeli
prisoners believed held in
Lebanon, foremost among
them Israeli air force
navigator Ron Arad.
Mr. Boutros-Ghali re-
iterated earlier promises to
work for the release of miss-
ing Israelis, saying he
himself was heading the
effort on the matter.

Population Up
L= Three Percent

=CD

Tel Aviv (JTA) — Israel
has one of the highest
population densities in the
world, an Israeli expert on
the subject told an interna-
tional gathering of urban
planners here.
In fact, the area of Israel
north of the Negev is more
densely populated than
Holland or Japan, Professor
Adam Mazor of the Israel In-
stitute of Technology-
Technion in Haifa told the
International Federation for
Housing and Planning.
The federation was wrapp-
ing up its 41st world con-
gress, a weeklong event that
convened this year in
Jerusalem.
Professor Mazor said that
more than 90 percent of
Israel's population lives on
40 percent of the country's
land. As a result, the coun-
try's remaining open space
may be overwhelmed in the
near future by rapid popula-
tion growth.
Professor Mazor heads an
interdisciplinary team that
is drawing up a physical
plan for the country for the
year 2020.
But Arye Nesher, a demo-
graphic and physical
planner, warned that
Mazor's team may have
nothing left to plan, because
of the extraordinary devel-
opment inspired by the pro-
spect of mass immigration
from the former Soviet
Union.
Mr. Nesher noted that a
joint planning commission,
set up two years ago to ad-
vance the planning-approval
process from between one
and two years to between 40
and 50 days, has already ap-
proved some 400,000 dwell-
ing units. And the majority
of these have not yet been
built, he said.
Professor Mazor said that
"in the last 20 years alone,
the housing stock has been
doubled. In the next 30
years, it will be tripled."
