Mr. President. I would like to take this opportunity to note the death of Israels onetime Premier and Defense Minister. Mr. David BenGurion. Born in Poland in 1886. the then David Green emigrated to Palestine in 1906. He made innumerable contributions to the birth and growth of a Jewish state. His ultimate dream was the triumphant survival of a Jewish homeland. He realized this. Mr. BenGurion was venerated and respected by the world at large for his commitment and contributions. Mr. President. I ask unanimous consent that an editorial from the New York Times of December 2. 1973. commemorating David BenGurion be printed in the RECORD.
