Former Premier David Ben Gurion, addressing a convention in Beersheba of Israeli farmers who recently arrived as immigrants from Morocco, called upon them to make plans to absorb the expected wave of new immigrants from the North African country.

A party of some 570 Moroccan Jews arrived at Haifa this week-end. They are the first large group of immigrants from the country to arrive this month. Immigration from Morocco is expected to reach 30,000 within the coming year.
