World Medical Parley
Convened by JDC
PARIS, (JTA)—An interna-
national health conference for
doctors working in the Joint
Distribution Committee's medi-
cal, welfare and health pro-
grams throughout the world
opened here to review medical
progress and sanitation and
health activities in the coun-
tries in which JDC operates.
Moses W. Beckelman, Euro-
pean director of the JDC, wel-
comed the doctor, and noted
that the JDC had inaugurated
these medical conferences in
1947, even before Israel was es-
tablished as a state and began
to have its present health prob-
lems.
He revealed that the JDC
spent $10,960,000 in Israel last
year, the equivalent of half its
total „budget. He stressed the
JDC's policy of having local
communities assist themselves
and said that this policy was
bringing results in North Africa
at "a gratifying rate."
Dr. Alexander Gonik, director
of the JDC Health Department,
outlined Jor the conference the ;
two major aims of the meeting.
The exchange of new methods
and new thinking in the field
based on the experience of the
JDC staff and others in the
field; a n d improvement of
health and sanitary services in
the countries in which the JDC's
clients live.
