in Jerusalem to "prepare the cli-
mate" for the next World Zionist
Congress, which will open there
June 9. He also disclosed that the
Jewish Agency executive decided
that aliya will remain a function
of the Jewish Agency, while the
Israel government would take the
major responsibility for absorbing
immigrants. Dr. Goldmann ex-
pressed the hope that the world-
wide Conference of Jewish Or-
ganizations that he heads will come
to embrace more organizations and
will deal with more problems than
hitherto.
Later, Foreign Minister Abba
Eban told a meeting of the Asso-
ciation of Latin American immi-
grants here that it was the failure
of Diaspora Jewry to undertake
the large-scale immigration that
makes it impossible to give dis-
passionate consideration to the
problems arising from last June's
war.
Eban said that, if Israel's popu-
lation were 4,000,000 or even 3,000,-
000 instead of 2,000,000, thinking on
the problems posed by the war
might have been much calmer.
The foreign minister made his
remarks following an address by
Moshe Kitron, chairman of the as-
sociation, who criticized both Israel
and the Diaspora on the matter of
immigration. Immigration cannot
be conditioned on Israel's being a
replica of Western societies, he
said.
On the other hand, he charged
