Mrs. Golda Meir, Israel’s Foreign Minister, arrived here last night, and immediately undertook a heavy schedule as head of Israel’s delegation to the United Nations. With her was her political secretary, Simcha Dinitz. Two other members of Israel’s delegation to the current General Assembly also arrived last night. They are Simcha Pratt, who just completed a tour of duty as Minister to South Africa; and Dr. Eliezer Yapou, consul-general in Holland.
Mrs. Meir had arranged a long list of appointments with prominent diplomats prior to her arrival here. Among her appointments for this week are conferences with the Foreign Ministers or other delegation chairmen from Brazil, Rwanda and Senegal. On Monday, she will hold a luncheon for all women delegates to this year’s Assembly. This luncheon by Mrs. Meir to the distaff side of the diplomatic corps at the United Nations is an annual event.
