A resolution to raise $50,000 in America for the establishment of an artisan school in Tel Aviv was adopted last night at the concluding session of the two-days conference of the Pioneer Women’s Organization held here.
The conference also decided to raise $125,000 as its yearly quote for the Council of Working Women in Palestine. Yehudith Simchonit, delegate of the Council who arrived from Palestine, reported on two years of war life in Palestine. A gift of $1,300 for the Jewish section of the British War Relief was presented by the conference to the Earl of Godsford.
