Ben-Aharon told reporters that
during discussions he held with
the Labor Party leadership a mut
ual understanding was reached,
But he said he still believed the
government should not have inter-
vened in the cannery strike.
The threatened strike that would
have shut down Israeli's canning
industry was averted Sunday night
when the Manufacturers Associa-
tion agreed to a compromise pro- j
posed by Premier Golda Meir and
accepted earlier by Histadrut's
Central Committee.
Ben-Aharon's resignation was
welcomed by centrist and rightist
political factions, but the His-
tadrut "strong man" received
overwhelming s u pp or t from
workers who urged him to with.
draw his resignation.
Two-hour strikes in support of
his stand against government inter-,
vention erupted in factories and
workshops all over Israel and at

COPENHAGEN IJTAi—Michael
Brojde, the son of World War II
master spy, Leopold Trepper, was
taken to a hospital this morning
after fasting for 171 hours to pro-
test the Polish government's re-
fusal to give his parents exit visas

tors said he was very weak, and
he was reported to have suffered
a lapse of memory.
Trepper, who headed the Soviet
espionage network in Western
Europe during World War II, told
the Jewish Telegraphic Agency in
a telephone conversation from
Warsaw that he wanted his son to
end his hunger strike. He said he
had received indications that he
