(whose socialist credentials are at least as strong as his
peacemaking credentials) at the official residence of the
prime minister of Portugal. Though the possibility of such a
meeting was foreseen, nevertheless it caused a political
storm in Israel.

A Segulah for Having Children
To the Editor:
I would like to bring a segulah for having children
to the public's attention. It is good for other areas where
help is needed as well. The gemora says, "Whoever is
in need of something and prays for someone else with the
same need, will be answered first."
Observations: 24 MKs Support Casino Bill
by P. Matzliach
Not everything in the country is peaches and cream; there is
still room for improvement. According to 24 MKs, what we
really need now is a gambling casino. They maintain that if
a casino were to be built, affairs would be better all
around.
