The World Revisionist Council, which is now meeting here, had appointed a three-man committee to open negotiations with Herat, the Irgun-esponsered political movement, for a division of function and authority between the two groups.
The plan for negotiations which was adopted by a narrow majority, authorized the committee to attempt to divide the functions and scope of the two related groups on the basis that the Heruth would be the Israeli version of the Revisionist Party, which would continue to maintain its subdivisions abroad. The sessions of the Council have been adjourned until Sunday pending a report by the Committee.
