Rear Admiral Herschel J. Goldberg, head of the United States Navy Supply Services, will arrive here April 3 for a three-day visit connected with supply of non-military items by Israel to the U.S. Navy.

He will be accompanied by Commander Fogel, head of the U.S. Sixth Fleet and by his adjutant, G.R. Ahrons. The visit will implement a recent United States-Israel agreement under which the United States will buy certain industrial items for the civilian needs of its military forces.

Deputy Defense Minister Avi Dinstein was instrumental in helping to achieve the agreement. Adm. Goldberg will be received by Mr. Dinstein, by Chief of Staff Yitzhak Rabin and by Trade and Industry Minister Zev Sharef. He will also tour Israel.
