That’s a wise investment for a Community College. What better
person could teach future financiers finance and banking than an
experienced vice president like our Stuart. It gives the community a
a better return for their money.
So, next time you see Stuart at Mercantile, you might want to bring
him a bright and shiny red apple for— uh. the teacher’s desk?

Agency, caused the inability of

In approving the $2.2
billion last December that
President Nixon had requested
shortly after the cease-fire in the
Yom Kippur War, Congress
authorized him to grant up to
$1.5 billion and allow the
remainder in credits. It had been
assumed prior to the Peres visit
that since the President had
forgiven $1 billion in April and
since official U.S. sources had
said the remainder would be in
credits at low interest rates that
the final decision had been made
on that fund. But the Peres visit,
it was reported, and his
explanations of the different
types of weapons needed in
Israel’s security requirements in
the new reality together with the
vast indebtedness Israel had
incurred by the war and its
aftermath brought a change in
the U.S. outlook.
ISRAELI HERO SAYS
PREVENTIVE WAR
MAY BE NECESSARY
TEL AVIV (JTA) - A Yom
Kippur War hero said here that
Israel would have to launch war
against Egypt if that country
began to develop nuclear
weapons.
Gen.' (Ret.) Ariel Sharon,
whose division in Sinai smashed
through Egyptian lines to
establish an Israeli bridgehead on
the west bank of the Suez Canal
last October, told the graduating
class at the Haifa Technion that
Israel would have no choice but
to wage preventive war if Egypt,
within a few years, is on the
verge of producing atomic
weapons.
This would not be necessary
had the Americans not agreed to
provide Egypt with a nuclear
reactor, said Sharon, a Likud
MK.
He said that to the best of his
knowledge, no other nation had
offered Egypt a nuclear reactor.
He conceded that in the long run
it was not possible to keep
Egypt from acquiring nuclear
know-how, but any delay would
be to the benefit of Israel.
