Meanwhile, the economic sit- uation seems to be worsening. Most price controls have . been, lifted, with more promised. Prices rose last week, including the price of gasoline, kerosene and electricity as well as food- stuffs.

Commenting on sug- gestions that the government print additional currency, Mr. Eshkol declared, in a statement to the Jewish Tel-graphic Agen- cy, that "under no circum- stances" would the government print more money.
