Sam Watson, leader in the British miners’ federation, and Miss Alice Bacon, member of the Labor Party executive, were named the Party’s representatives today on a six-man delegation of Trades Union Congress and Cooperation Union members who will visit Israel early next year at the invitation of Histadrut.
The visit was arranged after long negotiations between the three British organizations and Dr. S. Levenberg, Histadrut representative in London.
