Anti-Zionist Resolution
JERUSALEM, (JTA)-A resolution equating Zionism with
colonialism and calling for the elimination of both which was

Israel Seeks American
Bids On First
Nuclear Power Plant
TEL AVIV-The Israel
Electric Corporation asked
three American companies to
submit bids for building the
country's first nuclear power
station.
The 600-megawatt plant will
use enriched uranium from the
United States, and will not need
the "heavy" water required at
most nuclear installations, a
spokesman said. It was
estimated it would cost about
$ Kill-million to build. No site has
yet been chosen.
The three United States
companies          were          the
Westinghouse Electric Cor-
poration, the General Electric
Company and the Babcock &
Wilcox Company.
JERUSALEM, (JTA)--One of the largest manhunts in Israel's
history is underway for the terrorists who planted an empty
refrigerator wired to deadly mortar shells in Jerusalem's Zion
Square which exploded last week killing 14 persons and injuring
72.
Twenty-four of the victims were
still hospitalized, three of them in
critical condition.
More than 300 Arabs have been
rounded up for questioning so far.
The Jordan River bridges were
closed to all but bona fide tourists as
security authorities pieced together
evidence which indicated that the
mortar shells -- one of 120 mm. and
the other 81 mm. - were smuggled
into Israel from Jordan, possibly by
a "summer visitor'' and that the
infernal machine was assembled at
a terrorist hideout in the Hebron
hills, not far from Jerusalem.
Police are trying to trace the
vehicle that brought the seemingly
innocent ice box, an Amkor-10
refrigerator of fsraeli manufacture,
to the heart of Jerusalem and
deposited it in the street crowded
with pre-Sabbath shoppers.
Police are also trying to maintain
calm in this shocked and stunned
city   where   crowds   of   infuriated
Israeli youths rioted last Friday
night and Saturday demanding
vengeance for the terrorists' car-
nage.
Arab merchants evacuated the
city's watermelon market and their
stalls were later burned to ashes by
firebrands hurled by Jews. Police
enlisted youths from the Merkaz
Harav Kook Yeshiva and the Yeshiva
Hakotel, both near the scene of the
blast, to patrol the streets to prevent
violence between Jews and Arabs.
Despite the tension, most Arab
workers showed up for their jobs in
the Jewish sections of Jerusalem.
An elderly Arab sat outside a coffee
shop near the Damascus gate, his
Israeli identity card in hand. "As
long as we have this card, which we
did not ask for, we expect the Israeli
government to protect us," he told a
passer-by.
Police seeking to cool hot tempers
tried to explain to Israeli youth that
