JERUSALEM (JTA)—Israel's greatest problem is strength- ening its security, Premier David Ben Gurion told a closed plenary meeting of the Jewish Agency executive in a 90-min- ute review of current develop- ments in the Middle East. He underlined the government's determination to take every necessary and possible step to fortify the army and bring its equipment up to date. He called immigration and settlement the most urgent tasks of the Jewish people. "We need more Jews and we need them quickly," he told the Zionist leaders gathered from all parts of the world. He asked for an all-out increase in immi- gration from all corners of the world. The Agency executive ap- pointed a nine-man committee of financial experts to draft detailed plans for the "new financial arm" which the last Zionist Actions Committee authorized to raise within the Zionist movement as addition- al funds for investment in Israel. The committee was in- structed to bring in its plans in the shortest possible time. The new financial instrument will sell shares abroad in a new holding company which would invest its capital in various ,ttp; tnptp ,Typ, 1717. • hvpirt Tprrit wr1." -11m4" ik2tt! rT4inip:7 t.t4'171tg hnrr - Israeli development projects, most of which are already pay- ing dividends. One of the tasks of the drafting committee is to schedule the new organization's fund-raising schedule in various countries so as to avoid clash- ing with and undermining the United Jewish Appeal and the Israel bond drive.

Epstein, head of the Neturei Karta religious group, recite the ban of excommunica- tion on the Jerusalem swim- ming pool, which opened here a few days ago, and on the own- ers of the facilities as well as on the bathers. The Torah draped in black was carried while the "Cherem" ceremony was recited by the rabbi. WHERE You Save . • • DOES Make a Difference ••••• ■ •=1•1••••• ■ ••• Ben-Gurion, Goldmann Disputes Reported Reduced to 'Minute' Differences JERUSALEM (JTA) — T h e Soviet Union is an important factor in the Middle East and the West must recognize this, Dr. Nahum Goldmann, presi- dent of the Jewish Agency, de- clared, adding that Middle East stabilization is not possible with- out Russia. This fact, he pointed out, is of utmost importance to Israel. Addressing a press confer- ence, Dr. Goldmann revealed that he had held three long dis- cussions with Premier David Ben-Gurion on this subject. He said differences between their views were now "minute." The World Zionist Organiza- tion president said the Jewish Agency executive had discussed in the past few days ways and means of mobilizing the entire Jewish people to support Israel in the present regional crisis. Dr. Goldmann, giving the press conference a brief report of the World Jewish Congress executive session in Geneva last week, underlined that for the first time in a decade, repre- sentatives from the Hungarian Jewish community and observers of the Polish Jewish community had attended the WJC session. Despite the presence of dele- gations from behind the Iron Curtain, he said, the WJC par- ley had adopted unanimous reso- lutions, reasserting the right of every Jew to migrate to Israel, and urging the Romanian Gov- ernment to enable the reunion of Jewish families spli.. between Romania and Israel.

Shragai noted that there was considerable immigration poten- tial in the United States and Britain and asserted that the entire problem of Eastern E u r o p e a n immigration was mainly a budgetary matter. He called for more funds for im- migration. Dr. Nahum Goldmann, presi- dent of the Agency, outlined steps for the expansion of im- migration from North Africa. Neturei Excommunicate Swimming Pool Owners one who is interest in this sport desires to know where (in which place) in the league his team stands. Most of the soccer-players are clerks, workers or tradesmen, and only during after-working hours do they train or play be- fore the public (audience). Of course, soccer in Israel has not yet attained a high interna- tional level, but Israel is slowly winning (buying) a name for itself in this game. Teams of the sports organiza- tions Maccabi and Hapoel, as well as national (selected) teams, have played in various countries in Asia and Europe and even reached distant Amer- ica. Soccer (selected) teams from various countries visit Israel frequently and p 1 a y against our best selected teams. Jewry would re-affiliate with the World Jewish Congress and that it would be followed by other communities in Communist countries and added the hope that ultimately such a develop. ment would lead to the opening of the door to contact with So- viet Jews. (The second meeting between Ben-Gurion and Dr. Goldmann, held in Tel Aviv, was called at t h e initiative of Progressive Party leaders Dr. Pinchas Rosen and Yitzhak Harrari who were present at the private session in Ben-Gurion's residence). An Israel economic center will be opened in Paris in June, Moshe Galli, economic counsel- lor for the Israel Embassy, dis- closed.
