How to organize immigration into Israel in view of the situation in Egypt and Hungary and how to finance the absorption of a new immigration wave into the Israel economy was discussed today by the joint Government-Jewish Agency coordination committee on immigration which met under the chairmanship of Premier David Ben Gurion.
While the entire committee discussed the political questions involved, a special subcommittee, composed of Finance Minister Levi Eshkol and Peretz Naphtali, Jewish Agency treasurer, was set up to study the financial problems.
These issues will be the main subject of a two-day meeting of the Small Zionist Actions Committee which will open here tomorrow. The meeting was to have opened today but was postponed since arrival of Dr. Nahum Goldmann, president of the World Zionist Organization, was delayed.
some 1,000 immigrants arrived at Haifa port today. A number of Jewish refugees from Hungary were among the immigrants.
