An agreement for the export of Israel chocolates and candy to the United States and their sale there by the Barton chain of candy shops was announced here today by Stephen Klein, head of the New York candy firm. He said that Israel’s chocolate and candy exports to the United States this year under the agreement would be valued at about $100,000.
Mr. Klein reported further negotiations with Israeli vintners for distribution of Israeli wines in the United States and said that he was conducting negotiations with the Israel Government for a group of American investors on a secret plan which he said would ease the Israeli food shortage.
