A campaign for $50,000 conducted by the New York Chapter of Hadassah, the Women’s Zionist Organization of America, will be culminated at a luncheon to be held at the Hotel Roosevelt on February 18. Mrs. David de Sola Pool, chairman of the committee, announced that the proceeds of this event will go to the Hadassah Medical Organization, which maintains the largest public health agency in Palestine.
Mrs. Felix M. Warburg has accepted the chairmanship of the patroness committee. Mrs. Pool stated that Mrs. Warburg’s entry into the active work of the New York Chapter campaign is a fulfilment of a hope that the creation of the Jewish Agency has aroused, namely, that Zionists and non-Zionists are working together for the upbuilding of Palestine.
