Jerusalem (JTA) — Israel's cost
of living index rose by only two-
tenths of a percent in July, with
inflation rising by 2.8 percent
since the beginning of the year,
the Central Bureau of Statistics
announced.
Finance Minister Avraham
Shohat welcomed the surpris-
ingly low index and estimated
that annual inflation could be the
lowest in years, amounting to less
than 10 percent.
The government has set a
target range of 8 percent to 11
percent annual inflation.
Seasonal drops in the prices of
fruits and vegetables, clothing
and footwear contributed to the
low increase.
Manufacturers and industri-
alists welcomed the rate and
called on the Bank of Israel to re-
spond with an appropriate drop
in interest rates.

Delegates See
Political Protests
Jerusalem (JTA) — Delegates to
Hadassah's annual convention in
Israel got a first-hand glimpse of
current tensions on the Israeli po-
litical scene this week when a key
conference event was disrupted
by right-wing protesters.
The conference's 2,000 dele-
gates and guests were assembled
at the Binyanei Ha'uma conven-
tion center in the capital to honor
Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin
and Foreign Minister Shimon
Peres with Hadassah's Henrietta
Szold Award, Hadassah's high-
est honor.
But the premier's speech was
marred by heckling, as was
that of U.S. Ambassador Martin
Indyk.
The protesters included set-
tlers from Gush Etzion, led by
Rabbi Shlomo Riskin of Efrat,
and members of the Women in
Green Israeli nationalist move-
ment. Some of them lay across
the plaza outside the hall, while
others dodged security guards to
take up seats in the audience.
Several of the hecklers were
ousted bodily by security men.
Rabbi Riskin said such
protests were planned for all
future public events where the
prime minister appears.
Man Arrested
Smuggling Arms
Jerusalem (JTA) — Security
forces arrested a man who ap-
parently had smuggled arms
across the Jordanian border.
He was apprehended near
Argaman, a moshav in the Jor-
dan Valley that is close to the
Jordanian border.
