Israeli leaders striving for unity
By United Press International
TEL, AVIV, Israel — Prime Minister designate Shimon Peres said yesterday he and Likul bdocler Yitzhak Shamir would sign a post forming Israel's first unity government in 14 years, but 11th-hour negotiations to resolve differences continued.
Former Defense Minister Ariel Sharon, a member of the Lilud kibbe's Herut Party, told state-owned Israel Television he did not believe a majority government was possible when the Israeli Parliament, or Knesset, was to meet for a vote of confidence of the unity government.
SHARON SAID THE agreement would fail because under its terms the Labor Party could renge on about 20 new Jewish settlements the linked coalition agreed to have built on the Israel-occupied West Bank he said the issue was a main
difference separating the two parties.
Israeli newspapers reported yesterday that a favorable vote appeared certain in the Knesset, given that both Labor and Herut were expected to accept the agreement.
Peres' announcement yesterday to Israel Radio came after the central committee of his Labor Party and Shamir's Herut Party both agree in mission to a list of Cuban members to be represented in the government.
Herut is the leading party in the Lakud bloc.
Negotiations between representatives of the two parties continued early today. Depending on their outcome, the agreement could be signed later today before the Knesset votes on ending the six-week political impasse at a time of economic crisis for Israel.
A UNITY GOVERNMENT would be Israel's first since a Labor-led
government from 1967-1970
The agreement hammered out by the party leaders after weeks of painstaking negotiations provides for an unprecedented rotation of the prime ministership, with Peres hold the post until 1986.
Shamir will serve as foreign minister under Peres and then trade jobs with him for the 25-month period ending in November 1988.
closing in on workers.
Peres encountered few problems in winning the approval of Labor's central committee for a list of Labor members who would become Cabinet ministers.
But Sharun won approval for the unity government and Herut's Cabinet appointments only after a stormy 2½-hour debate by the party's central committee in which former Defense Minister Ariel Sharon called for a secret vote on the Cabinet list but was overruled
SHARON OBJECTED TO Shamir's decisions against giving jobs to Yigal Cohen-Orgad, the
current finance minister, and to Yoram Aridor, Cohen-Orgad's predecessor.
The Heret appointments include Sharon as minister of industry and trade and current Defense Minister Moshe Arens as minister without a portfolio.
Key appointments to the unty Cabinet from Labor include former President Yitzhak Navon as deputy prime minister and minister of education and former Prime Minister Yitzhak Rubin as defense minister.
If the vote of confidence passes the Knesset, Labor takes over the prime minister's job for the first time since 1977. Rabin resigned that year over disclosures his wife held bank accounts in the United States, in violation of Israeli law.
New elections were held in 1977 and the Likud coalition, headed by Menachem Begin, took power while Labor became the opposition party for the first time since Israel's creation in 1948.

By United Press International
Nicaragua's Defense Ministry reported yesterday that 11 rebels backed by the United States possibly including an American had been killed in recent clashes with soldiers along the nation's Caribbean coast.
