President to Israel's Pharmacists Enlists
Detroiters9 Aid for Pharmacy School

Dr. Joshua Kohlberg, presi-
dent of the Israel Pharmacists
Association, who was the guest
of Michigan pharmaceutical or-
ganizations and fraternities on
a two-day visit here this week,
Stated that the shortage of
pharmacists in Israel "makes it
imperative that the widest pos-
sible support be given to help
e r e c t the newly - established
School of the Pharmacy of the
Hebrew University in Jerusa-
lem."
During his visit here, Dr.
Kohlberg enlisted help for the
nationwide $1,000,000 drive for
the pharmacy school. He ex-
pressed the hope that Detroit
pharmacists and their allied
groups will contribute $100,000
towards the needed gola.
Detroit's Aesculapian Soci-
ety, organization of Jewish
Druggists, has pledged $25,000
towards the school fund, and
Dr. Kohlberg reported that
$14,000 of this pledge already
has been paid.
In addition to the Aescula-
pians, members of Alpha Zeta
Omega and Rho Pi Phi, pharma-
cists' fraternities, have joined
the local efforts in behalf of the
school.
Jack Robinson, president of
the Detroit Alumni Chapter of
Alpha Zeta Omega, informed
Dr. Kohlberg during his visit

.

He reported that the school
which was established in 1953,
now has 60 students, including
two Arabs, and will graduate
the first class of 10 who have
completed the full course next
June. He said the aim is to con-
duct the school for 100 students.
The $1,000,000 fund, he ex-
plained, is needed for classroom
buildings, a library, laboratories
and equipment.
Assistance in the drive is be-
ing given by chapters in this
country, Switzerland and Eng-
land, he stated.
Dr. Kohlberg said that the
school's budget of 75,000
pounds a year is covered by
the Israel Pharmacists Asso-
ciation, but that Israeli phar-
macists are unable to provide
the vitally needed building
fund.
Holding the Doctor of Chem-
istry and Master of Pharmacy
degrees from the University of
Vienna, Dr. Kohlberg came to
Israel in 1939, after, being
stranded, upon the outbreak of
World War II, in Switzerland,
where he was attending the
World Zionist Congress. He also
is a municipal judge in Tel Aviv
and is active in an Israel co-
operative wholesale drug com-
pany.

dressed the pharmacists' organ-
izations and was guest of Dean

from Premier Ben Gurion and
Mrs. Meir and voted approval of
Mrs. Meir's statement rejecting
settlement proposals advanced
by Nuri es-Said Pasha of Iraq
on the basis of the 1947 parti-

with the questions of freedom of
passage of the Suez Cannal and
Red Sea and measures to safe-
guard'the populace against bor-
der attacks. -

Previously, Mrs. Meir had met
with the American and French
ambassadors here and is under-
stood to have warned them of
the grave consequences which
might result from the entry of
Iraqi troops into Jordan, point-
ing out it would jeopardize the
armistice agreement itself.
