A commission representing the Hadassah, Women’s Zionist Organization of America, sailed Friday for Palestine for the purpose of seeking ways and means of bringing about closer cooperation between the Hadassah and the local organizations in Palestine. The commission consists of Miss Henrietta Szold. Mrs. Edward Jacobs and Norvin R. Lindheim.
The commission was sent by the governing board of Hadassah with full instructions to adjust the situation in Palestine on a permanent and satisfactory basis.
On this occasion Mrs. Irma L. Lindheim, president of the Hadassah, issued a statement in which she denied the report that Dr. E. M. Bluestone has resigned from his post as director of the Hadassah Medical Organization in Palestine.
