Dr. Joseph J. Schwartz, vice-president of the Israel Bond Organization, left today on a 12-day visit to Europe and Israel in connection with preparations for the Fall phase of the 1964 campaign for the sale of $85,000,000 in Israel bonds.
Dr. Schwartz will confer with Finance Minister Pinhas Sapir and other economic experts in Israel regarding the country’s five-year economic program which was initiated early in 1964 and which is being financed with the aid of the proceeds from the sale of Israel bonds. He will also report to the Finance Minister on the progress of the current Israel bond campaign, which broke all previous records during the first six months of 1964.
