B’nai B’rith districts, local lodges, and women’s auxiliaries throughout America were urged today by the Order’s Executive Committee to contribute to a memorial forest in Palestine to be named for Dr. Borish D. Bogen and Dr. I.M. Rubinow, late secretaries of B’nai B’rith.
A resolution passed by B’nai B’rith’s District. No.2 urged the creation of such a forest, and the Executive Committee has endorsed the idea, and has now made the appeal national in scope within B’nai B’rith, instead of limited to District No. 2.
