The inauguration by the Zim Lines of a new passenger service between Israel and other Mediterranean countries and Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina was announced today by the American-Israeli Shipping Co.,Inc., U.S. representatives of Zim.

The service calls for four round trip voyages during the fall, winter and spring of 1963-64 by the S/S Theodor Herzl. The liner will sail from Haifa and will call enroute at Piraeus, Naples, Lisbon, Canary Islands, Rio de Janeiro, Santos, Montevideo and Buenos Aires. The one-way voyage will occupy 22 days. The ship’s return voyages will be via the same ports, but will omit Montevideo on the first and third trips and will omit Piraeus on all return trips.
