The transportation of immigrants from Persia by air will be resumed next week with the arrival of 64 adults and eight infants, a Jewish Agency spokesman revealed here today. A contract to fly the immigrants to Israel was signed by the Agency with an air transportation company as winter weather closed the overland route through Turkey until next Spring.
Commenting on a protest last week by the American Zionist Council against the shipment of arms by the Western Powers to the Arab states, the spokesman said that the Agency welcomes the “initiative of any Zionist group or individual” who undertakes to assist politically the State of Israel in any of the dangers facing it.
