The reports from the Israeli delegation to The Hague talks with the Germans may necessitate an extraordinary meeting of the Israel Cabinet during the Passover holiday, it was learned here today.
If such a meeting becomes necessary, it was indicated, Premier David Ben Gurion will be forced to interrupt his vacation, which he is spending at Tiberias, Israel’s spa. Meanwhile, a Ministerial Committee of Moshe Sharett, Eliezer Kaplan and Moshe Shapira are studying the reports from The Hague.
