Page 2-Saturday, July 22,1978-The Michigan Daily Labor Party challenges Begin's health TEL AVIV (AP) - The opposition Labor Party has challenged Menachem Begin's physical and mental fitness to serve as prime minister, touching off a new political storm in Israel. The direct personal attack on Begin came at a closed Labor Party meeting Thursday night. It was widely reported by the Israeli media that former Prime Minister Golda Meir said Begin was ill and others questioned his mental state. SOURCES close to Begin, who would not allow their names published, described the accusations as "slan- derous." Begin himself viewed such remarks "with quiet contempt," they said. As the political battle pushed the larger issues of Mideast peace into the background, Begin's doctor issued a statement that the prime minister was not "under the influence of medications which affect his abilities or his moods." Begin, 64, suffers heart trouble and diabetes and is often reported to be in failing health. The attack on Begin was the sharpest yet mounted by Labor, which was ousted by the voters last year from its 29-year hold on the government. THE POLITICAL nature of the at- tack was seen as a prelude to a full- scale debate on faltering Mideast peace efforts in Parliament next week and a motion of no-confidence in the gover- nment. Meir was not available for comment Friday, but she was reported to have questioned whether Begin was in full control of his senses and said that "the sickness cannot justify anything." Former Finance Minister Yehoshua Rabinowitz said Begin's behavior "was that of a person who is not normal. The joy, the gaiety - it frightened me." isch group to file documents LANSING (UPI) - The attorney for the Tisch tax cut mation of the committee and probably in excess coalition yesterday said the group will file organizational although I do not know the full amount, but they were documents next week which will comply with the requiremen- they weren't cashed and there has been no decision s ts of Michigan's campaign finance reform law, cash them," Van Epps said. -The filing, however, will be made more than a week after "They probably will be returned or replaced or som Shiawassee County Drain Commissioner Robert Tisch and his VAN EPPS DESCRIBED Tisch's campaign to ge supporters submitted about 320,000 signatures to put his plan cut plan on the ballot as "a kind of one-man, self-start on the November ballot. a situation.

Peres accused the prime minister of an isolationist policy, while Begin sup- porters' charged the Labor leader with "trying to rise to power on Sadat's back." Begin was reportedly worried that the Austria meeting would undercut Israel's bargaining position and that Sadat would use it to put pressure on the Begin government. Begin also vetoed a proposal that Peres seek a meeting with King ussein of Jordan on Mideast peace proposals.

Spreen again ruled ineligible DETROIT (UPI)-The Board of State Canvassers has again ruled Oakland County Sheriff Johannes Spreen off the ballot in his bid for the Democratic nomination forgovernor. The canvassers, in a 4-0 decision yesterday, ruled that Spreen was more than 2,000 short of the 17,764 nominating signatures he needed to get into the primary. THE CANVASSERS earlier denied Spreen a spot on the ballot due to an in- sufficient number of signatures, but he convinced the Court of Appeals to order the board to reconsider that ruling. The court told the canvassers to take a second look at more than 400 disputed signatures. Of those, 399 were voided because the circulators failed to date the petitions and 19 were invalidated because the county where the petition was circulated was not specified. But on its second review, the can- vassing board found that even more signatures were invalid than it had found on its first look. Candidates remaining in the Democratic primary are state Sens.
