Sell those unwanteds By Fruk BreckbUl Tte tiny sute oj Israel, though rounded by oil-rich neighbors, Is more blened thin they, or even most Western Industrialized nations. The Arabs' oil will eventually run out.

But Itriel could double her energy base without purchasing another barn-Tot oil, ton of coal or pound of uranium energy that would last forever, or until nature changes the level of the Mediterranean Sea. The difference In elevations between the Mediterranean and the Dead Sea nearly 1,300 feet, or eight times the drop of Niagara Falls Is one of the greatest untapped energy resources In the world, and exploitable only by Israel. Israelis have long been aware of this. Last January, a government- commissioned panel headed by Prof. Shlomo Eckstein of Bar Ilan University recommended that a IS-foot-dlameter concrete tunnel be constructed to carry Opinion water from south of Tel Aviv SO miles to the Dead Sea, where a power station could generate 10 per cent of Israel's elecrical needs by 1980.

In the 1940s, James B. Hayes ol Die Tennessee Valley Authority and Walter C. Lowdermilk, an official in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, assembled hard data on the Irrigation potential of Palestine. But the Idea Is much older than that.

In 1898. Theodor HerzJ. the father of, political Zionism and early prime mover for the establishment of a Jewish national home in Palestine, met briefly with Kaiser Wilhelm II just outside present-day Mlkve, Israel, when the Kaiser visited Palestine as a "pilgrim." "It needs water, very much water," the Kaiser said. "Canalization on a grand scale," replied Herzl. Herzl later wrote of the Israel-thai- could-be in his fictional book "Altneuland" (Old New Land), describ- MeoHerrani Sea ing how canalization and hydroelectric power had by 1923 transformed the once arid and desolate land.

He envisioned a huge power plant situated at the Dead Sea, Its high-tension lines stretching out in all directions, and chemical plants recovering the treasures of that great 994-square-mlle body of salt water. Herd's diary reveals that the concept came from Johann Kremenctzky, a Jewish electrical engineer from Vienna, who became a great admirer of Henl and was the first president of the Jewish National Fund. My wife and I discovered these' and other facts in the course of Investigating what we thought was our original recognition of the immense energy potential of a Mediterranean-Dead Sea link-up. We firmly believe a feasibility study of the Kremeneuky-Herzl plan should be made by TAHAL, Israel's water planning commission. We have proposed to TAHAL that instead of a tunnel a canal be dug.

and that it begin at the Bay of Haifa as In Henl's original plan, In order to avoid the high mountains between Tel Aviv and the Dead Sea. Approximately eight miles from Haifa, near the settlement of Nashe, the canal would divide. Two channels, each lending toward the Dead Sea, would serve several purposes. The first channel would carry water first to Tiberius and the Sea of Galilee and then into the West Bank lands for pool and lake formation. The second could extend at a higher level on Into the Negev Desert, again providing water for high- level lakes and pools along Its route.

Both channels would eventually empty what water was left after evaporation losses into the Dead Sea. We estimate that only a fraction of the now of Niagara Falls would provide eight times the electrical power of the tunnel plan. The major disadvantage of a proposed canal is political. While It would begin and end In Israel, it would have to pass for part of its length through the disputed WeslBank lands. Indeed, this is probably the major reason why Heral's eminently commonsensical idea has never been Implemented.

We believe, however, that this apparent disadvantage may actually be the canal's greatest blessing In disguise. There would be other benefits. With locks to the newly created lakes, freight and passenger travel would open new commercial and scenic areas for visitors and investments. Distillation of water from the open channels and lakes would green nearby arid areas and temper the hot climate. A lot of manual labor would be required to build, maintain and operate the canal project, as well as greenhouses and resort areas.

The Palestinians need work, and the future security of Israel needs something more substantial than F-15 jets, which only guzzle more imported fuel and Invite attack. Perhaps a little water over there could help cool the fires of hatred and distrust water carried by a canal in which both Arabs and Israelis had a stake. "Dreams are not so different from deeds as some may think," Theodor Herzl wrote In Old New Land. "All the deeds of men are only dreams at first," Were Israel to embark on "canalization on a grand scale," II would not be the first of Henl's dreams to become reality FRANK BRECKBILL. tormeily employed by an electric utility, and his wile.

The 747 was flown by a combined NASA and Boeing flight crew and carried 15 engineers who checked out data acquisition and systems performance.
