A cornerstone for the Doctors House was laid here today near the Zionist Organization of America building. Representatives of the Israel Health Ministry, delegations of physicians who had attended the recent World Medical Congress in Jerusalem, and representatives of the Israel Doctors Association attended the ceremonies.
Dr. Robbins addressed the gathering on behalf of the American delegation to the Congress. The Doctors House on completion will include an auditorium, a lecture hall, library and club. It is estimated that the building will cost 400,000 pounds.
