It has helped to bring to an old land the social approach of the western world and the scientific miracles of our era. "What we have done thus far has only been in preparation for the future which Palestine faces. At a time of the direct tragedy for our people, Palestine holds out a hope and a comfort for the homeless. It stands as a har- binger of that bright new world which we all pray may arise from the ashes of the old. We believe that the just demands of the Jewish people for an opportunity to rebuild their land and estab- lish there a Jewish Commonwealth will be granted. "American Jewish women through Hadassah, will be given the privilege of strengthening the foundations that have already been built and of helping to make of this reconstituted Jew- ish Land, a home and center where the highest Jewish ideals and aspirations may be realized."
