THE DETROIT JEWISH NE WS — Friday,
Healing and Research - Hadassah's
Great Gifts in Israel's Progress
JERUSALEM, Israel — There
is a sense of great satisfaction
for anyone associated with the
Zionist movement, and especial-
ly for Hadassah members, in
witnessing the results of Ameri-
can Jewry's activities in Israel
as represented in the emergence
of the great Hadassah-Hebrew
University Medical Center.
It is a deeply moving experi-
ence to see the modern hos-
pital settings, the laboratories,
the nurses either at work or
engaged in studies in the Ha-
dassah nursing school.
For Detroiters there is the
added feeling of satisfaction
over the community's share in
this great work upon reading
the names of the late Jeanette
Kabaker and Frank Wetsman
and of the Borman Brothers
among those listed as founders
of the Hadassah health center.
Equally thrilling is the know-
ledge that a Detroiter, Edward
Superstine, who is on leave
from the faculty of the Wayne
State University College of
Pharmacy, is the director of
pharmacy services at the Ha-
dassah-Hebrew University Med-
ical Center at Ein Karem. Sup-
erstine supervises the handling
of 250,000 orders a year and
the distribution of pharmaceuti-
cal supplies to health centers
throughout the country. The
most modern methods of pre-
paring the drugs and their han-
dling has been -introduced by
Superstine. He came to Israel
in answer to an advertisement
in a professional magazine in-
serted by the Hadassah Medi-
ical Center when it was in
search of a competent person
to direct its pharmacy services.
Hadassah's services are mani-
fold. The women's Zionist move-
ment shares in the Jewish Na-
tional Fund's reclamation and

States. It encourages educa-
tional activities, and the results
stand it in good stead in the
results attained in Israel
through the knowledge spread
among Jews.
In Israel, Hadassah's work
is much more than that of con-
ducting a health program. It
includes participation in Youth
Aliyah and in the training of
young Jews for work on the
land. It conducts community
health services and has a voca-
tional educational program.
The latest pamphlet issued to
describe Hadassah's programs
was printed at Hadassah's Bran-
deis Center where young men
are trained to become . skilled
printers. Other vocations are
taught in Hadassah installations
and the women of America can
point with pride to the work
that is the result of their sup-
port.
It is in the field of research
that Hadassah takes special
pride through its health cen-
ters. Israel, the result of the
ingathering • of the Exiles, is
the land that has a greater
variety of people with differing
genetic characteristics than any
other country on earth. There
are Jews in Israel from the
East and the West, from Indo-
China and Kurdistan; from
Morocco, Tunisia and Algeria
as well as Poland, Russia, Eng-

How do they differ and what
has been the effect of environ-
ment upon them?
Attempting to evaluate gen-
etic and environmental factors
which cause coronary trombosis,
diabetes and arterio-scelrosis,
American and Israeli scientists
working at the Hadassah center
found that coronary trombosis
among European Jews in Israel
is 94.1 per 100,000, but among
Orientals it is 18.3 per 100,000.
Only 60 new Yemenite set-
tlers per 100,000 suffer from
diabetes, but the figure is as
high as 2,900 per 100,000 among
long-term Yemenite settlers
and is 2,500 among Europeans.
These are only a few of the
facts established by research
which is a major Hadassah-
Hebrew University task here.
Thus, the Hadassah over-all
projects link healing with re-
search and teaching. Hadassah's
gifts to mankind are in evi-
dence also in Afro-Asian coun-
tries which are being assisted
by Hadassah experts. Through
healing and teaching, Hadassah
has become the pride and the
glory of Israel.
Philly AFL-CIO
Council Condemns
Soviet Anti-Semitism
PHILADELPHIA, (JTA) —
The Philadelphia Council of
the AFL-CIO has adopted a
resolution condemning anti-
S'emitism and the persecution
of minorities in the Soviet
Union.
The resolution cited the trials
and convictions of Soviet Jew-
ish leaders "on trumped-up
charges of anti-state activities,"
as being "in line with the worst
anti-Semitic traditions of Czar-
ism, and the barbarous prac-
tices of Stalin."
The AFL-CIO Council called
up:fn all of its affiliated groups
to register their protests with
Adlai Stevenson, 'U.S. Ambassa-
dor to the United Nations, re-
questing him to present the
views of the organized labor
movement on the situation of
Soviet Jewry to the UN Human
Right Commission. The labor
group also urged that letters of
protest be sent to the Soviet
Ambassador to the United
States, Anatoly F. Dobrynin.
