...used as his base of power. Happily, Ben-Gurion turned his thoughts to a new Cabinet that would probably include most of the now chas tened politicians who had dared oppose him on Lavon. The outcome represented something less than judicial fairness to Lavon, who may now bolt the party and try to fight Ben-Gurion on the stump at the next election. But it served as notice that the 74-year-old Prime Minister is not only running Israel, but controlling the line of succession as well...
