Israel's Christians
1500 at Waldorf Astoria Proclaim
Final Tribute to the Late Dr. Weizmann
NEW YORK, (JTA)—The crea-
tion in Israel of a "reservoir of
scientific knowledge and tal-
ents," to replace the "great re-
pository of Jewish scholarship
and science in Eastern Europe"
in large part annihilated, was
urged by General David Sarnoff,
chairman of the Board of t h e
Radio Corporation of America,
in addressing the memorial tri-
bute to the late President Chaim
Weizmann of Israel held at the
Waldorf Astoria here.
Fifteen hundred guests, in-
cluding leading American and
UN statesmen and political fig-
ures, many ambassadors, world-
famed scientists and commun-
ity leaders attended the tribute,
which was sponsored by the
American Committee f or the
Weizmann Institute of Science.
Mrs. Vera Weizmann, the
President's widow, -had flown
specially from Israel to attend
the commemoration. The Grand
Ballroom at the Waldorf Astoria
had been specially decorated for
the occasion and 78 candles near
the rostrum symbolized the late
President's age.
Dr. Nahum Goldmann hailed
the late Dr. Weizmann as "the
most consummate synthesis of
an Eastern Jew saturated with
the fullness of Western Euro-
pean culture." He said that the
late President's Zionism was "the
natural consequence of his Jew-
ishness."
