None Of these visits have great

they are glad that nothing un-

It seems that Israelis' original
irritation. evident still a short
while ago. at any not strictly bust
ness contact between their repre-
sentatives and the West German
Government. has given way to a
more sensible attitude. They have
come to realize that a handshake

initiation Of diplomatic relations
is around the corner. Even if
something like "de facto rela-
