Eshkol named Brig.

Gen. Haim Bar-Lev, to succeed Maj. Gen. Itzhak Rabin, mastermind of Israels victory in the June 5-10 war. Some government officials said Rabin would be sent to Washington as ambassador.

Defense Minister Moshe Dayan proposed Bar-Lev, a soft-spoken soldier who fathered Israels tank power, to assume command of the armed forces. Dayan also said he was happy Rabin would continue to work in the national interest, adding support to the reports of the Washington assignment. Rabin, 44, has been armed forces chief for the last four years, one year longer than usual. He built the Israeli fighting forces into the swift, hard-striking military machine that crushed the combined armies of Egypt, Jordan and Syria. In Tel Aviv Sunday an army spokesman said Arab saboteurs blew up a section of the Jerusa-lem-Tel Aviv railroad line and also hit a water tower and road equipment in a public works depot.
