A Mapai women’s delegation arrived today in West Germany at the invitation of the West German Socialist Party-Women’s Chapter. The delegation is headed by Knesset member Genia Berger and includes Knesset member Rahel Zabari, Tzipora Sharett (wife of Moshe Sharett), Leah Berkin and Alisa Lewenberg.

The Hamburg Chamber of Commerce protested today against the “undesirable snooping” in which the Libyan government has been engaging in Germany to establish whether any firm there is “owned by Jewish capital. ” In a public statement the Chamber of Commerce said: “It was about time that Arab countries were told clearly by all states, not only the Federal Republic, that such snooping is incompatible with good relations between sovereign states.”
