To Retain Post

JERUSALEM - The crisis
in Israeli government over
the "LaVon Affair" reached
fever pitch this week. Pre-
mier Ben-Gurion has threat
ened to resign and President
Ben-Zvi has been battling to
keep the government to-
gether.
In a dramatic turn of
events the Sadigorer Rebbe
made a direct appeal to Ben
Gurion to retain his post.
The Sadigorer Rebbe, ac-
cOmpanied by several of his
Hassidim, went to the Ben
Gurion home. Literally on
his knees, with tears stream
ing down his face, the Rebbe
told Mr.. Ben-Gurion: "You
constructed the State of
Israel. Now you must save
her from destruction by put
ting an end to this affair"
Mr.. Ben-Gurion was moved
and replied thai it was not
he who had built Israel "but
/ shall not give my hand to
its destruction" You can
trust Israel" he told the

out of greater hardships, that
it will find a way out of this
