pressed anxiety over the condition
of Dr. Chaim Weizmann who is
recuperating from illness in a

O
Dr. Weizmann first showed
signs of exhaustion and illness
while on his recent trip to the
United States. He was ordered
a rest cure by physicians. But
despite the long rest, his condi-
tion
tion not only has failed to show
10 ' signs of improvement but it is
reported to be considerably ag-

Friends of Dr. Weizmann ven-
tured the opinion that overwork,
both an behalf of the Jewish and
United Nations cause, may have
overtaxed the frail body of the
