...other Arabs, and perhaps to attract Jordan and to divide the Palestinians in the occupied territories into rejectionists and gradualists.

What the U.S. needs, argues McLaughlin, is a national water policy, one that calls for considerable participation by businessmen. The Government should identify the scope of the problem, set conservation and recycling standards, then offer incentives.

The centerpiece of an industrial and agricultural complex of audacious scope and cost, the plant stands on a company-owned property of about 5,800 sq. mi., which is larger than Connecticut. The pulp factory and its ancillaries cost $400 million to construct. A companion plant is expected to be towed up the river and put in operation by the mid-1980s. To feed the plants with young trees, a vast reforestation...
