Vaino Leskinea, Finland’s Minister of Interior, told a meeting of the Jewish community here last night that he was impressed by Israel’s agricultural, industrial and social development. During his recent trip to the Jewish State, he said, he was “fascinated” by the high ideals of Israel’s youth, by the absorption of immigrants, by the reclamation of the desert, by the Histadrut, and by “that great man, Ben Gurion.”
