A need which first inspired
Henrietta Szold to convert her
"literary group" into the philan-
thropic group we now know as
Hadassah has recurred in Is-
rael.
On a visit to Palestine in
1912, Miss Szold was appalled
at the prevalence of trachoma,
a dread eye disease which
causes blindness. During the or-
ganization's 50 years of activity
in campaigning to arrest this
and other diseases, the afflic-
tions were controlled.
However, with the recent im-
migration of refugees from
North Africa and other Middle
East countries, the problem
once more has presented itself.
In answer, the Detroit Chap-
ter of Hadassah has launched a
"Save An Eye-Bank Campaign."
Eye banks, which can con-
tain $5 in dimes, have been dis-
tributed to the membership, ac-
cording to Mrs. Abe Zitomer,
chairman of the drive.
"One filled eye-bank will cure
one eye of trachoma," she says.
