The cornerstone for an addition to an institution for maladjusted children in Israel which was established and maintained by the American B’nai B’rith Women’s Supreme Council, was laid today on the grounds of the school at Beit Vegan, on the outskirts of this city.
The cost of the addition, $250,000, has already been raised in the U.S. by the Supreme Council. Chief Rabbi Ben Zion Usiel and prominent B’nai B’rith leaders in Israel and from the U.S. participated in today’s ceremony.
