April 29, 1946
See Original Daily Bulletin From This Date

A group of 15 American businessmen and industrialists will leave for Palestine by plane at 11 p.m. tomorrow from La Guardia Field. This flight which has been arranged by the Palestine Economic Bureau of the Zionist Organization of America will constitute the first post-war air tour of Palestine.

The tour has been arranged with the primary motivation of boosting Palestine-American trade relations. The group of Americans going on the tour will study the possibilities of establishing branch factories, distribution centers, service centers and other facilities, using Palestine as a center for the distribution of American-made products throughout the Middle East.
