MRS.   GROSS   AND   MRS.   KRUOER,   Hadassah   Co-Chairmen
Senior Hadassah's Platform: Saving Lives, Helping Citizens of Israel, Widening the Frontiers of Science; Locial Support Urged
Under the pledge co-chairmanship of Mrs. Norbert Kruger and Mrs. Jerome Gross, Columbus Hadassah has structured an organization for Xund raising that's comparable to the most efficient industry. Chairmen, captains and workers have formed that closely-knit unit, which makes for successful endeavors. They are telling Columbus Jewry that Ha¬ dassah specialists are daily saving lives, w'idening the frontiers of science and "helptng the citizens of Israel, a sister democracy, to help themselves, Mrs. Gross has this to say: "In a world where many eyes and niuch attention^Are being directed toward possible, destruction, it la heartening to support Hadassah which has for so many years been directed toward bulldjng and healing."
Mrs. Kruger pointed out: "Of interest to all people who are sen¬ sitive to the needs of their fellow- men is this statement by Dr. Kal¬ man J. Mann, director-general of the Hadassah Medical Organization in Jerusalem."
Dr. Mann says: ''Hadassah's hos¬ pital services must care for a large portion of Israel's sick. From Re- hovot southward to Ellat the Ha¬ dassah Yassky Hospital at Beer- sheba is the only hba^tal in the Negev, an area of moi^ than half of Israel. If a soldier or' settler is hurt anywhere on the long Negev border, he has to be brought to the Beersheba hospital. Four thousand patients were treated in the hos¬ pital and 10,000 in its clinic in the
past year. "In  Jerusalem,   Hadassah   is  the
chief hospital. We care for a popu
lation   of  200.000.   We  also  provide
beds  for  patients who  reside out- jside  Jerusalem   and   who  come   to
our  Hadassah  University Hospital
to   talte  advantage   of  our  apecial i
faculties   ...   we     still   have  the
Immediate     problem     of     hospital
beds,  but, long-range benefits can
accrue   only   by   directing   all   of
Hadassah's efforts to treating the
individual   as   a   whole   and   as   a
part of his community." SUPPOBTINO    THE    chairmen
are women who have muflb faith in
their  goal   and   who  are  working
bard for their achievement. These
workers ask that as soon as pos¬ sible and tn order to faolUtato the
Oct    31    Donor    Dinner   arrange¬ ments,   checks  be  mailed   to  Mrs.
