The
Official Gazette of Israel has an-
nounced the conversion of the
Jewish. National .Fund to an Is-
raeli corporation by. order of the

Rosen. The JNF was originally
a British corporation.

order was "gratifying" and re-
vealed that this move had been
planned for a long time. He
said the old corporation would
probably remain in existence
until all its assets were trans-
ferred to the new corporation.
He also stated that the news of
this action would be welcomed.
