President Truman has told intimate friends that in the event
he decides to make a trip to Europe he will visit Israel to see
"my good friend Chaim" . . . The President has been cool to the
idea of confering with top-ranking diplomats on European soil .. .
However, since the easing of the tension over the Berlin blockage
the advocates of such a visit have gained the upper hand.
Between You and Me

The "peace terms" agreed upon by the ZOA administration
and the opposition group known as the Committee for Progressive
Zionism will probably not be made known prior to the ZOA con-
vention to be held at the end of this month .. . But it can be
safely said that the opposition group will, under these terms, get
about •a third of all the offices in the new ZOA administration
which the convention will elect . . . The ZOA presidency will go
to Daniel, Frisch, but the chairman of the administrative council
of the organization will be a CPZ member .. He may either be
Rudolph Sonnenborn, Ezra Shapiro, or Harry Levin . . .
