.D;ipe to Obtain
Medical Supplies
For India Obems

A drive to obtain medical supplies
for India is being launched by the
newly formed Association of Indian
Women in America, the first group
of its kind to be organized in this
country by citizens of Indian birth
The association, founded by Mrs
Asaf Ali, wife of the Indian AM
baSsador, and a few other Indian
women, was organized primarily fol-
cultural purposes such as the study
of American institutions and the ac-
quainting of Americans with India :
culture.
Reports from India, however, in
dicate a desperate and unforeseen
need for medicine and medical
equipment among the poor in some
areas, so the association has tenn
porarily postponed its cultural pur-
suits to aid in this new cause, ac-
cording to an announcement.
The membership of the associa-
ton, which hopes to expand to other
parts Of the country, is thus far
drawn mainly from residents of the
Washington area, the majority OF
whom are wives of diplomatic Of
fcials and representatives of inter-
national institutions located here.
Almost every major religion OF
India is represented among the
women leaders of the organization
Miss Bina Nelson, an Indian Christ
ian, is it's organizing secretary and
Mrs. Rajwant Grewal, Sikh, is Its
treasurer.
Serving on the Executive Commit
tee are Mrs. Vasanti Kowshik, Mrs
I. s. Chopra, Mrs. T. S. P. Ram
Mrs. Anasuy Gyanchand and Mrs
Hirabai JOSH, all of whom are
Hindus, and Mrs. S. D'Hozario, ar
Indian Christian.
Donations of medical materials OF
funds are being sent to the associa-
ton in care of the organizing sec.
retary at 2107 Massachusetts, avenue
NV
