Israel Ambassador Abba Eban has conferred with Moorhead Patterson, President Eisenhower’s special representative on peaceful uses of atomic energy. It is presumed here that the matters discussed included Israel’s participation in the international atomic energy agency and in the worldwide conference envisaged by the recent United Nations resolution on that subject, as well as opportunities for nuclear training of Israel researchers in this country.
The Israel Embassy had no official comment on the conference but the attitude of United States officials was said to have been very cooperative. Ambassador Eban was accompanied at the conference by Reuven Shiloah, Minister Plenipotentiary, and Dr. Victor Salkind, the Embassy’s scientific attache. Also present at the conference were officials of the State Department.
