Michael Comay, Israel’s permanent representative to the United Nations and Yosef Tekoah, the outgoing acting representative, conferred here today with Ralph J. Bunche, Undersecretary for Special Political Affairs.

The conference was believed to have been concerned with the United Arab Republic action in halting the Greek freighter Astypalea at Port Said where the ship had sought to go through the Suez Canal carrying cement from Haifa to Djibuti.
