KENTUCKY GERYLD B. CHRISTIANSON, STAFF DIRECTOR JAMES P LUCIER. MINORITY STAFF DIRECTOR mnlted States Senate COMMITTEE ON FOREIGN RELATIONS WASHINGTON, DC 2 0 5 1 0 June 11, 19 87 The Honorable Yitzhak Shamir Prime Minister Jerusalem, Israel Dear Mr. Prime Minister: The American people have traditionally been supporters of education in schools around the world. One such school is the Machanaim School at Kiryat Gat, which we had the pleasure of visiting during our trip to Israel in 1985. The friends of the Machanaim School in Congress have successfully pressed the U.S. Agency for International Development to make two separate contributions of $200,000 for the Machanaim School for a total of $400,000. These contributions stand as an expression of our mutual friendship and interest in the next generation in your country. We urge you to consider providing a matching grant of Israeli funds so that the funding of this school can truly be a joint expression of U.S./Israeli friendship. With warmest regards. Sincerely JESSE HELMS CHIC HECHT
