that $200,000,000 would be

Ira Guilden of New York,
chairman of the board of Is-
rael Bonds, said that Israel's
economic plight was aggra-
vated by a rate of inflation
of more than three times
that of the United States.
Over a 12-month period
ending February, 1974, infla-

the Soviet regime may soon
permit an increased number
of Jews to leave for Israel,

Minister's Club in the United
