A second meeting between Israel Premier David Ben Gurion and Jewish Agency president Dr. Nahum Goldmann was held here last night on the initiative of Progressive Party leaders Dr. Pinchas Rosen and Yitzhak Harrari. Both Progressive leaders were present during the private session at Mr. Ben Gurion’s residence here. A third meeting is expected later this week.
It was learned that a rapprochement was reached by the two statesmen, particularly on a number of personal matters. However, it was understood that little progress was made in bridging political differences, particularly in the field of foreign policy. Nonetheless, it was reported that Dr. Goldmann would undertake an important political mission abroad on behalf of the Israel Government.
Reportedly, Dr. Goldmann expressed the belief that the most immediate danger to Israel is political. The Premier, on the other hand, is said to feel that the imminent danger is military in character.
