"JERUSALEM   PLAN"   DISCUSSED   BY DELEGATES AT ZIONIST CONGRESS
JERUSALEM. (JTA) ¦ The World Zionist Congress, the 23rd since the first Zionist Congress met in Baale 54 years ago and launched the Zionist movement dedicated to the establishment of a Jewish .state in ancestral Palestine, opened this week.
Zionists from all parts of the world, except the Soviet Union and the Iron Curtain countries, have assembled here for the Congress which is regarded as marking the turning point In the history of the Zionist movement. This Is the first Congress to be held since the establishment of the Jewish state and the first to convene on the territory of Israel. The Congress Is confronted by a number of major problems, most of them stemming out of the fact that the first goal of the original Zionist program the establishment of a Jewish state has bepn ac¬ complished. Delegates here have been speaking of a new "Jerusalem Program," to replace the original Basle Program, as a blueprint for the future activity of the world Zionist movement.
At a prcBH conference, I Jr. Na¬ hum Goldmann, chairman of th*- Ameriean section of the Jewish Agency. outlined the problem.s which will come up for discussion before  the  Congri'S.s.   He  said   that

•'.SAVE   AN   EYE"
Launching it's "Save an Eye" campaign, Columbus , Chapter of Senior Hadassah will distribute "Eye Banks" to all its niembers within the next few weeks. All money saved will be credited to In¬ dividuals towartj their Donor Din¬ ner pledges.
In Hadassah's hospitals, the cost for treating an eye Infected with trachoma Is $5.00; thus the slogan "Save an Eye with an Eye Bank."
In 1918, when Hadassah began Its anti-trachoma work in Jeru¬ salem, one child out of every five had infected eyes. Hadassah's In¬ tensive work all but eradicated the disease. The recent influx of immi¬ grants from oriental countries a- gain   brought   trachoma   to   Israel.
Out of 224 new immigrant chil¬ dren examined in one of Jeru¬ salem's schools last year, 74 had active trachoma. Because of the high incidence of the dlseafie, Ha¬ dassah doctors began ualng sulfa treatment on a large scale.
Hadassah women the country over are asala^ng with thia import- I ant project.
