for the purchase of arms.
Dr. F. Shinnar, head of the
Israel purchasing mission, called
on Jews to be realistic in their
relations with- Germans and to
cease thinking only about the
past when they deal with Ger-
many. "There is no Nazi dan-
ger in Germany today," he em-
phasized. "The last two elec-
tions have clearly shown this. I
am convinced the German peo-
ple today are sincerely endeav-
oring to build up a new com-
munity founded on law and jus-
tice. A wholly new generation
is growing up in Germany,
whose principles, as far as can
be judged today, are democratic
and fully in line with those of
their government."
He pointed - to the fact that
the Israel - German reparations
pact is functioning without a
hitch five years after it came
into force. "Sixty per cent of
West German deliveries to Is-
rael have consisted of capital
goods designed to assist Israel
in construction of its industry
and agriculture. The rest com-
prised mainly raw materials
and semi-finished manufactured
goods. We do not expect the

reparations agreement to under-
go any changes during the next
several years," he added.

here in dispatches from the Jor-
dan capital.
