The United States may grant Israel some financial aid to help it buy the Hawk anti-aircraft missiles it has decided to make available to Israel, it was learned here today.

It was indicated that the United States would not seek any political concessions in exchange for the Hawk sale, such as modifications in Israel’s positions on the Lake Tiberias water project or the Arab refugee problem.
