A sub-committee of economic and financial experts of the United Nations Economic Survey Mission to the Middle East conferred yesterday with representatives of the Israel Government and with Israel trade and financial leaders.
In sessions which lasted three hours, the U.N. experts asked for and received a myriad of details concerning the country’s economic, financial, and currency problems. The U.N. financial experts met with a number of directors of the Anglo-Palestine Bank, headed by S.S. Hoofien; manager of the Bank and Israel’s economic czar. The U.N. representatives will hold several more meetings with Israel experts and will then tour the country.
