That Israel wants peace in the
Middle East was made very ap-
parent by Lt. Col. Dina Werth,
chief training officer of ' CHEN,
the Women's Army of Israel, at
the annual meeting of the Worn-
en's • Division, State of Israel
Bonds, on Monday afternoon, in
the Statler Hotel.
Col. Werth, speaking before
400 Detroit women, pointed out
that in Israel, the army is called
the IDF—Israel Defense Forces—
and that its goal is the defense
of the country, not gobbling up
other territory in the Middle
East.
Here on six weeks leave from
the Army, Col. Werth explained
that training in the armed forces
does much more for a woman in
Israel than making a soldier of
her.
Women are taught Hebrew and
a lucrative trade which will pre-
pare them for civilian experience
when they leave the army after
their service of two years.
Following her address, Col.
Werth presented "advance
guard" CHEN awards to the fol-
lowing women who, through the
sale of $30,000 in Israel Bonds,
earned charms for the CHEN
charm bracelets:
Mesdames Torn Borman, Sam
Brody, Philip Helfman, Charles
Milan, Joseph Newman, Max
Stollman and Phillip Stollman.
Mrs. Joseph Katchke, chairman
of the Women's Division, and
Mrs. Rachel Kurtzman received
their awards earlier at a confer-
ence in Washington.
Menahem Pressler, Israeli con-.
cert pianist, playing his firSt per-
formance in Detroit excelled in
Ravel's "Nocturen for Left Hand."
It was reported at Monday's
meeting that $192,700 had been
collected toward their goal of
$200,000. A total of $71,800 was
obtained o n Sunday's "Dina
Werth Day."

'The Forward Look'

Col. Werth, while here, was
entertained at a brunch prior to
her talk. She presented Sponsor
pins to women who have pur-
chased $1,000 Bonds in 1955, and
CHEN charms to workers selling
more than $2,500 in Bonds.
The previous evening, Mayor
and Mrs. Albert Cobo and Mr.
and Mrs. Morris L. Schaver were
hosts to Col. Werth in the Stat-
ler's Presidential suite. Council-
woman Blanche Wise presented
Col. Werth with the keys to the
city at that time.
Col. Werth was re-united with
Col. Ben Edden, a neighbor of
hers in Tel Aviv, who is here as
a representative of the State of
Israel Treasury Department.
The reunion was one of many
the two have had, beginning in
the pre-war Haganah days, con-
tinuing through World War II
and into the Arab-Israel strug-
gle. The two fought side by side
in the southern command (the
Negev battles) during the latter
conflict.
