Israel Budget Nearly
Balanced. Treasury
Head Says in London

LONDON, (JTA)-Except for
immigration and security needs,
the Israel budget has been bal
anced, David Horowitz, director
general of the Israel Treasury and
head of it's delegation to the cur
rent financial talks here, declared
last week.
Speaking at the concluding ses-
sion of golden jubilee meeting
of the Jewish National Fund here,
Mr.. Horowitz stressed that the
heavy drain on the Israel economy
caused by security needs it at
tributable to the fact that in a
situation where there is no peace,
Israel must defend 600 miles of
frontier in flat land.
"There is no inch in the en-
tire country which cannot be
reached by artillery fire without
the enemy crossing any frontier"
he said. He pointed out that
money from abroad is earmarked
for the use Of new immigrants

Last weeks interview found the
distinguished musician as anxious
to learn about Phoenix, its Jewish
community and it's culture as he
was to tell about Israel and her
music. He asked about Hadassah,
about the musical artists coming to
perform in Phoenix and about the
Phoenix Symphony Orchestra.
In Israel, he said, everything
is alive and vital, charged with
purpose"
"You will never find more love
for music, art, theatre any place
else than you find in Israeli" he
continued. Everyone goes to
concerts. Everyone listens to
music. The cultural standard is
very high. They know that the
cultural standard of a nation is
judged by the arts-particularly,
in our times, by musical art"

Jordan Opposes
Jerusalem Plan

LAKE SUCCESS, (JTA)-or-
dan and Israel last week differed
at the United Nations with regard
to the Swedish proposal that only
the Holy Places in Jerusalem be
placed under international super
vision.
The representative of Jordan
told the U.N. Special Political
Committee that his government
considers the Swedish plan un-
acceptable. Abba Eban, Israel's
representative, told the session
that Israel supports the plan and
considers it a fair and practicable
solution of the issue.
Fight, Threatened
In opposing the Swedish plan,
the representative of Jordan said
that while some points OF this pro-
posal could be accepted by his
government, others threatened his
country's national integrity. The
plan as whole must therefore
be rejected, he said. He concluded
by stating that his government
would do everything in its power
to prevent the Swedish plan from
being implemented.
Belgium Against 1t
Belgium similarly announced it's
opposition to the Swedish plan.
The Belgian delegate said that
this plan was not efficient and that
its implementation would depend
on a illegal peace" in Palestine.
He stated he agreed with Iraq that
last years United Nations resolu-
ton or a corpus separatum had
failed only because the Trustee
ship council had not made the nee
essary efforts to carry out the
statute. He suggested the crea-
ton of a committee of negotia-
ton with broad terms of reference
to work out a compromise solu-
ton.
