Some 1, 300 immigrants arrived in Haifa within the last 24 hours, including large numbers from Europe and Egypt.

Most of the immigrants will go to new settlements in the Negev-and the Galilee, but a small number will scatter to various kibbutzim. All immigrant ships carry representatives of various kibbutz movements who try to persuade newcomers to take up life in a collective settlement.
