Governor Lauds Hebrew University
On 25th Year; Weizmann Asks Peace

Premier David Ben Gurion,
addressing the audience, point-
ed out that the rebirth of Israel
was not, and will not be, con-
fined to the establishment of a
governmental machinery for the
Jewish people, but will find its
supreme and complete fulfill-
ment by revealing its eternal
spirit and fulfilling the historic
mission in the redemption of
humanity.
Prof. Brodetsky was installed
as president of the University
during the ceremony. Chief Rab-
bi Isaac Herzog, who was among
the prominent guests, was not
permitted by his physician to
speak. The public ceremony was
