General Dayan said that he had resigned because of. a lack of ."identification" which he .said should exist between a minister and the chief of government. General Dayan, one o[ Israel's more colorful and independentm i n.d e d political personalities, became Agriculture Minister in December l!l."i!i, in the Cabinet of former Premier David BenGurion. He had served as military Chief of Staff from 195:11(1").'!. Mr. Eshkol expressed regret that General Dayan could not find any possibility of continuing in the Cabinet. An official in the Premier's office expressed the opinion that General Dayan's resignation had been motivated by a combination of government and party considerations and personal political ambitions. The General lias been mentioned as one of the leaders in Israel's dominant labor party, "Mapai,". and might one day rise to the premiership. Sources close to General D:)yan said that the disagreements between him and the Premier were not essentially due to divergent policy aims, but to General Dayan's belief that the Pre- ' mier had failed to implement agreed policy forcefully enough.
