The Israeli-West German negotiations for the return of German Catholic property in Israel which began in Luxemburg ten days ago will be resumed in Paris tomorrow.
The Israeli representatives to the closed sessions in Luxemburg were Dr. Chaim Yahil, deputy head of the Israeli purchasing mission in Germany; Dr. Chaim Kadmon, General Administrator of Public Property in Israel; and Col. S. Sirkin. The Germans are represented by Bonn Government officials and a representative of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Cologne. Any payments agreed to at these sessions will come out of German reparations funds to Israel.
