shown great interest in some
Israeli products.
Among the products that seem
to interest both commercial inter-
ests and the general public are
Israeli fashion s, flower bulbs,
foods, stamps and coins, giftware
and a new Israeli Sabra sports car.
That car, a sports model, is to sell

West Coast.

States is Israel's largest supplier
and that, in 1963, Israel bought
more than $184,000 worth of goods
and materials in the United States.
Sapir said that the figure will be
"considerably higher" this year.
`Now," he said, "we are not la-
menting this fact. I n d e e d, you
have very good products and we
have close economic ties with your
great nation. Still the ratio be-
tween our two countries is about
4 to 1 in your favor. We believe
that the answer is not to buy less
here, but to sell you more. We
feel that we can and should sell
more."
