Alice Lady Cohen, wife of Sir Robert Waley Cohen, died here today of injuries received in an automobile accident near Haifa on January 16.
Sir Robert, who with his wife was en route to the opening of the Haifa terminal of the Iraq pipeline at the time, also was injured. At first it was believed Sir Robert’s injuries were more serious than those of Lady Cohen, whose condition changed for the worse yesterday.
