...question of what to do about the occupied territories that Israel shows less and less inclination to relinquish. One faction of the ruling Labor Party, represented by Deputy Premier Yigal Allon, argues for the establishment of paramilitary settlements in the occupied territories. Moshe Dayan favors an interlinked economy to benefit Jew and Arab. A program advocated by Gahal, a right-wing nationalist party led by Cabinet Minister Menahem Begin, is for outright annexation.

More surprising, no one really knows how rapidly wage costs are rising this year. The Government currently tallies only wage-and-benefit gains in union contracts covering 5,000 or more workers, and these contracts affect only 10% of the U.S. Labor force. Fuller wage data is compiled only yearly, if that often, and it does not cover fringe benefits. No figures at all are collected on the pay of state...
