Meyer Lanky arrived here today from Israel, a country he was ordered to leave. Dutch border officials had no orders to hold or question Lanky but local police are keeping him under surveillance. Dutch newspapers reported that the US government has already informed Holland that it will ask for Lansky’s extradition, It was not known whether Holland was his final destination. Mrs. Lanky remained in Israel for the time being.

A memorial plaque to the late Dr. Ami Sheering, the Israeli agricultural attache killed in London by a letter bomb last Sept., will be affixed to the new Kennedy-Leigh Library at the Hebrew University’s faculty of agriculture in Rehovot. The library is the central and largest agricultural library in Israel.
