Jewish national institutions are rushing a large consignment of medicines and surgical appliances to Turkish earthquake and flood areas, it was announced today. The supplies, all Palestine products, are being shipped by truck by way of Alexandretta. The Turkish Government, through its Consul General here, has indicated its preference for the supplies rather than a medical mission, dispatch of which had been offered as an alternative.
