'No Hunefer in Israel ' Minister
Of Agriculture Disputes Rumor
,
TEL AVIV, (JTA)—"There is
no hunger in Israel," Minister
of Agriculture Pinchas Lavon
told newsmen. He attributed the
recent reports of a deteriorating
food situation in Israel to vari-
ous parties which, he said, are
trying to force the Mapai Party
to accede to their terms for en-
trance into a coalitionary gov-
ernment.
.Minister Lavon stated that
there has been no basic change
in the food situation, except for
the seasonal decline in the vege-
table supply. The autumn
vegetable supply will become
vailable in November and will
ast_ for eight or ten months. He
agreed that housewives living
under an austerity regime feel
the lack of vegetables at this
time, but added that the gov-
ernment has ordered large quan-
tities of pOtatoes which will
start arriving this month. Be-
sides, he said, canned vegetables
and preserves have already been
distributed this month.

dered.

Sonneborn, Barbarash
Clash in Controversy
On 'Partisan Zionism'
NEW YORK, (AJP)—Rudolph
G. Sonneborn, a leader of the
Progressive forces in the Zion-
ist Organization of America, said
that the ZOA was fading out
and engaged in angry debate
with a ZOA spokesman.
The clash occurred at a press
conference called by Sonneborn,
who is chairman of the United
Palestine Appeal and who re-
cently returned from Israel. He
said the ZOA should be the first
to lead "in. the drive away from
party identification," and from
"partisan Zionism."
He was challenged by Ernest
E. Barbarash, long-time editor
of the "American Zionist," of-
ficial organ of the 250,000-mem-
ber ZOA. Barbarash said that
Sonneborn sounded ."like some
Israeli left-wing leaders of the
Zionist Congress who predicted
the doom of American Jewry."
