the possibility of new floods of
immigrants. Today the govern
ment is casting an anxious eye
on the situation in North Africa
where some $4,000 Jews live In
a climate of increasing violence
and terrorism.
Being natural optimists, the
Israeli themselves prefer to ig-
more the darker aspects of the
picture. They speak of the fu-
ture with confidence - of new
canals to be dug. new pipes to be
laid. new sources of power and
wealth that may be discovered
tomorrow. In the end. the faith
that moves mountains also out
weighs statistics and convinceS
the most hard bitten skeptics.

litical hurdles. A nation which
relies so heavily on the sympa-
thy and support Of world opin-
ion, can ill-afford not to behave
itself. The thought of renewing
the war with the neighboring
Arab states is a nightmare, not
only to the economists, but to
the average Israeli as well.
Look around you." they say
Look at what we have done
Do you think we would risk ii
lightly?"
Boycott Hurts
Even as things stand. the po-
litical setup places a heavy bur-
den on the economy. The boy
colt clamped on Israel by her
neighbors hurts worse than most
Israeli care to admit. The cost
is estimated at $40 million year
not including such intangibles as
lost markets and development
projects blocked by Arab objec-
tions. Add to this the cost of a
military force maintained on a
war footing. The figures are
secret. but unquestionably add
up to a high proportion of the
national budget. Other dangers
are beyond Israel's control.
Leaving aside the possibility
of war. the greatest threat to
Israel's economic future lies in
Evening star., 1955-05-20

only about 80 per cent. For the
rest and for covering the wide
gap in its trade balance, Israel
continues to rely on five major
sources of outside help.
These are:
/. $85 million in gifts from
world Jewry. last year, distrib-
uted largely through the Jewish
Agency. This year, the agency's
budget is almost $89 million,
mostly the result of the United
Jewish Appeal in the United
States.
2. $40 million in grants-in-
aid from the United States.
8. $50 million in development
loans.
4. S78 million in German rep
arationS.
S. $25 million private invest
ment.
Out of the total of 1854 mil
lion, there is little that Israel
can count on as a permanent
contribution to its development
American grants-in-aid have
been decreasing steadily. and
are expected to expire at almost
any time. subject to the mood
of the Congress. German repair
ationS-which supply a large
part of Israel's need for ma
chine tools and steel rails-are
scheduled to come to an end in
six years.
On the other hand. Govern
ment economists are hopeful of
increasing the income from de-
velopment loans and private in
vestment and are taking active
measures to make Israel a more
attractive proposition for the
foreign businessman. Finally.
there is the earnest hope that
the world Jewish community
will continue to look on Israel.
at least for the time being. as
its special responsibility.
Population Problem
Since the problem of absorb
ing new people is still perhaps
the major problem in Israel, the
last factor is perhaps the most
important. Backed by private
American aid, the Jewish Agency
has taken over the whole job
of transporting Jews to Israel
from all over the world, setting
them up in farming settlements
and supporting them until they
can take care of themselves.
The Israeli are not inclined to
look on this help as charity. AS
long as Israel undertakes to &C
cept any Jew who wants to make
his home in the new state. the
problem of immigration from
the Israeli viewpoint should be
shared on a worldwide basis.
Given this peculiar financial
structure, it is not hard to un-
derstand that 1srael's economic
foundations are both weak and
vulnerable. Essentially, the
country is running a close and
critical race against time-try-
ing to reach point where it can
stand by itself when the props
which now support its economy
are withdrawn.
It is not hard to see either
how this race can involve a num-
ber of potentially disastrous po-

Castillo BeIittles
Guatemala Plot

GUATEMALA, May 20 R.-
President Carlos Castillo Armas
last night brushed of a reported
plot to overthrow his govern
ment as "a matter of no i'm
portance"
He said ex-Army Capt. Ro-
dolfo Blanco. who sought po-
litical asylum in FL Salvador's
embassy. would be given safe
conduct out of the country il
he asked for it. The president
said that Capt. Blanco has de-
lusions of grandeur"
Civil guard officers said five
other men were arrested last
night in a search for illegal
weapons. Only two of them.
both Social Security Institute
employees, were held.
Col. Castillo said the men had

only a few hundred earn more
than $4,000 a year and the top
government salary is half that
but there are also very few beg
gars. Above all, Israel is a land
of hope, where the future is on
the drawing board and the COM
monest expression is always,
Come and see it next year"
There are also, however, few
countries in history whose eco
nomic development has relied
so heavily on outside support.
Impressive as the record of prog
-ress may be, it would never have
been achieved on the strength
of Israel's own resources. And
unless this aid is continued in
the future, a good many of the
rosy predictions will go by the
board.
The simple fact is that Israel
is paying for only a small part
of the spectacular development
which has taken place. The set
tlement of thousands of new
immigrants imposes no burden
on the Israeli taxpayer. Despite
strenuous efforts a gap of 10
per cent still exists between ex-
ports and imports. In seven to
ten years. assuming everything
goes well, it is possible that
Israel may be in business on his
own. But there is still a long
road to travel first.
Two Budgets
When Israeli officials speak
of a balanced budget" the term
has a special local meaning. In
Israel. there are two budgets.
The first. including ordinary
operating expenses of the gov
ernment and the cost of the
armed forces, amounts to about
$205 million, covered by taxes.
The other budget is the $l45
million earmarked for develop
ment. of which Israel supplies

Touch of Romance
You will find it in the talk of
men who sit behind desks in
government offices at Tel Aviv
or Jerusalem, brimming with
hopeful statistics about utilitar-
ian commodities like phosphates
and potash. There is a touch Of
romance in their description of
rediscovered copper mines, once
worked by King Solomen's slaves,
in the treasure hunt hunt for
iron ore and oil which is going
on, in vast areas of wasteland
being brought under fruitful
cultivation to support 1sra.l's
growing population.
These are men for whom a
little boaStfulnesS is an essential
duty: who can cite evidence of
more progress within the last
seven years than within the pre-
vious 20: who tell you with pride
that "the British spent years
looking for these deposits, but we
found them"
Even for the outsider, the
measurements of progress in
Israel are impressive. Certainly,
few countries in history have
started where Israel started

which has more than doubled
the original number of inhabit-
ants and wound up in compar-
able economic shape. There is
reason for pride in the fact that
today, Israel's budget is bal
anced. her credit in the world
market is sound. and imitation
has been halted.
No one can shrug off the fact
either that the area of watered
land has been more than tripled,
that industrial and power sta
tistics are skyrocketing or that
huge strides have been made to-
ward a balance between agricul-
tural production and food re-
quirements.
