Faf* Hr*
Israel Cabinet Okays
New Austerity Plans
JERUSALEM (JTA) — Israel’s
Cabinet has approved the new
economic austerity program for
the country, affecting wages and
prices, intended to fight infla
tion, cut production costs, in
crease production, and make Is
raeli exports more competitive
on the world markets. The plan
was outlined by Prime Minister
Levi Eshkol in a broadcast to the
country.
The decision was taken by the
Cabinet after an unusually long
session, lasting nine hours. The
action followed a decision by the
Mapam Party, the left-wing
member of the Government coal
ition, which had staunchly op
posed the Government’s program
but finally voted “to fight in the
Government, in Parliament and
in Histadrut (the labor federa
tion backbone of the Govern
ment) to eradicate unemploy
ment, stabilize prices and distri
bute the economic burden equal
ly.”
Outright refusal by Mapam to
endorse the program, worked out
by Minister of Finance Pinhas
Sapir and backed fully by Pre
mier Eshkol, would have meant
the downfall of the existing
coalition Gover n m e n t . The
Mapam decision was adopted by
a 52 to 20 vote of its central com
mittee. The continued Mapam
opposition stemmed from refusal
of the plan’s sponsors to levy a
compulsory loan and higher
taxes on higher income groups,
the failure to provide sufficient
funds, in Mapam’s view, to cut
joblessness, and the failure to
stabilize prices.

than one!
