work of the J. D. C.," Miss Ger-
trude D. Pinsky said upon her
return from a 15-month assign-
ment in nine Latin American
countries where she served the
Joint Distribution Committee.
"The 125,000 Jewish refugees
who- came to Central and South
America since 1933 have become
fully integrated into the life of
the general and Jewish commu-
nities in which they live," Miss
Pinsky told a press conference.
"Not only have they been instru-
mental in improving economic
conditions in some areas, but
their presence has helped to
stimulate, ' strengthen and rej u-
venate Jewish life in some of the
countries."
$200,000 Raised
Reporting on the J. D. C. pro-
gram in Latin America before
she leaves for Paris where she
will serve the Joint Distribution
Committee as a child-care spe-
cialist, Miss Pinsky pointed out
that during the first six months
of this year the Jewish commu-
nities of 16 Central and South
American countries raised close
to. $200,000 for the relief of over-
seas Jewry. This money has been
turned over to the J. D. C., and
in some instances commodities
such as blankets and clothing
have been bought and have been
sent directly -to various Euro-
pean areas. •

Censorship Remains
- There are no prospects that
the rigid Palestine' censorship
will be abolished soon, Acting
High Commissioner John -V. M.
Shaw said. He added that he
would try to liberalize the cen-
sorship.
A demand that the censorship
be lifted was made last month
by several Hebrew dailies and a
resolution to that effect was
adopted at a meeting of the 'Jew-
ish Journalists Association.
The Arab newspaper Falastin
reports that the Arab Chamber
of Commerce in Haifa has pro,

State Dept. Backs
Intergovernmental
Refugee Support
WASHINGTON (JTA) — The
State_ Department has recom-
mended to Congress that legisla-
tion be adopted authorizing U. S.
contributions to the Intergovern-
mental Committee on Refugees.
A draft bill has been submit-
ted by the department to the
House Foreign Affairs Commit-
tee and Acting Secretary of State
Grew has embodied the depart-
ment's proposals in a letter to
Senator Kenneth McKellar, pres-
ident of the Senate.
Congress provided two small
appropriations for U. S. partici-
pation when. the committee was
formed in 1938 on the initiative of
President Roosevelt, but has not
been asked for further funds,
since there have been no oper-
ating expenses requiring them.
The American representative
on the committee, Earl G...Har-
rison, former Commissioner of
Immigration and Naturalization,
conferred with the committee at
its London headquarters shortly
after his appointment last March,
but then returned to the U. S.
With the probable active revival
of the committee's activities, Har-
rison may return to London at
any time, according to the State
Department.
The committee is responsible
for the resettlement of some 14,-
000 refugees now in neutral coun-
tries, the State Department points
out.
which Jewish refugees have in-
troduced in South America in-

Mrs. Rose G. Jacobs, an inti-
mate friend and _co-worker, who
was president of Hadassah for
five years, presents an interest-
ing article entitled "Henrietta
Szold's Contribution to the Health
of the Body and - Soul of Pales-
tine"; Mrs. Tamar De Sola Pool,
also a former president of Hadas-
sah, gives •a detailed account of
the life and work of Miss Szold.
Dr. S. R. Kagan contributes an
article of interest on the con-
tribution of the pioneer phy-
sicians to the growth and de-
velopment of the Zionist move-
ment throughout the world. Since
the Middle Ages the Jewish phy-
sician has exerted great-influence
on the communal life of Israel.
The development of a living
Hebraic culture has made neces-
sary the creation of a new med-
ical terminology in Hebrew, and
the Harofe Haivri has had a part
in this creative effort by devot-
ing a special section on the sub-
ject. In this issue Dr. A. Freed
writes on forms of medical
nomenclature in the Bible, and
Dr. M. H. Leon on terminological
controversies. Dr. Leon Golden,
eminent Hebrew philologist, pre-
sents a dictionary of 600 new
medical terms.
Harofe Haivri, with its exten-
sive material and prominent con-
tributors, has maintained its high
standard of service to the med-
ical profession, and has won the
esteem of doctors and laymen
throughout the world. Its con.-:
tents are available to every read-
er. An English section contains
complete translations of all the
Hebrew articles.
