36 Friday, September 2, 1977 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Hadassah Raises $29 million, Re-Elects Bernice Tannenbaum NEW YORK (JTA)—Ha- dassah, the largest Amen's voluntary organiza- tion in the United States, with a reported 360,000 members, raised more than $29 million this year, it was announced at the closing session of the four-day 63rd annual national convention meeting at the New York Hilton Hotel. Frieda S. Lewis, national treasurer, reported that, even though the 360,000 members responsible for fund-raising achieved a re-. markable feat, in light of the recession and inflation, Hadassah is forced to achieve higher collections for 1977-78, because of high- er costs and increased serv- ices. The convention, attended by 3,500 delegates, repre- senting 1,550 chapters and groups in the U.S. and Puerto Rico, voted the fol- lowing quotas (1977-78) for Hadassah's health, educa- tion and rehabilitation and land reclamation services: In Israel: Hadassah Medi- cal Organization (HMO) maintenance — $9,000,000; HMO building and devel- opment—$3,333,333; Youth Aliya—$2,300,000; Hadassah Israel education services (community college, Brandeis-Seligsberg Coni- prehensive High School and the Vocational Guidance In- stitute)—$1 million; Jewish National Fund—$700,000. In the United States, the budg- et is more than $3,400,000. This includes Hadassah's adult and youth education programs, and leadership development. Rose E. Matzkin, HMO national chairman, reported that in addition to the Ha- dassah University Hospital on Mount Scopus with its Guggenheim Pavilion for Rehabilitation Medicine, which opened last year, other new facilities include: the Moshe Sharett Institute of Oncology, in operation since May; the new region- al Neo-Natal Center at Mount Scopus, and the Law- rence and Aleen Schacht Day School at Ein Karem. Faye L. Schenk, building and development chairman, said, "After a year in which major construction has been completed, this is now a time of opening serv- ices. "The chapters have ful- filled their three-year $10 million extra building quota; the Burns Unit at Ein Karem is ready; the Schacht Day Nursery for (::ciildren of staff is equipped and will open in Septem- ber; and increased com- puterization is expanding to include medical, research, diagnostic and therapeutic services. The cost of an ad- ditional new computer, with training of technicians, will nin about $700,000, of which part will be paid from a ei $750,000 United States Agency for International De- velopment grant." Bernice S. Tannenbaum was re-elected national pres- ident of Hadassah.

BERNICE TANNENBAUM Mrs. Tannenbaum told the 3,500 delegates that Ha- dassah will be asked to take a position on the issues of religious pluralism in Is- rael, whether aliya is a mat- ter of free choice or an im- perative, and the structure of the World Zionist Organi- zation and Congress at the 29th World Zionist Congress in February. "Since the founding of Is- rael, a surprising new de- bate emerged on what role organized Zionism would have to play in light of the creation of a sovereign Jew- ish state," Mrs. Tan- nenbaum said. "Hadassah has clearly defined its role: we belong to the World Con- federation of United Zion- ists which is completely di- vorced from any of the polit- ical parties in Israel." This does not mean that Hadassah is apolitical or non-political, she observed. "Zionism is, by definition, a political movement and Ha- dassah is involved daily with the politics of Zionist life. Both our confederation and Hadassah trace our ideological roots to the phi- losophy of general Zionism, which opens its doors to di- verse ideas, united by ac- ceptance of the Jerusalem Program." Mrs. Matzkin reported that arrangements have been concluded for the man- ,.ufacture and worldwide dis- tribution of an ointment which is, a promising treat- ment for some forms of skin cancer. The medica- tion was developed by scien- tists at the Hadassah-Hebr- ew University Medical Cen- ter in Jerusalem. Dutch Non-Jewish Certification Hit AMSTERDAM (JTA )- More than eight percent of Dutch municipalities are still willing to supply certifi- cates stating that a person is not Jewish, according to a survey taken by the Is- rael Committee of The Neth- erlands. Such a statement is needed by many Dutch citi- zens working or traveling in the Arab countries, espe- cially Saudi Arabia and the Persian ,Gulf states where many Dutch firms now oper- ate. The committee says that such a statement is in viola- tion of the international agreement against racial discrimination and it will ask the Ministry of Interior to ban the practice.
