Mrs. T. p S e l n, VINO had
come directly from Israel to
the conference, pointed out
there has never been a lab
oratory of human relations
such as exists in Israel to-
day. She said the people of
Israel could not have been
brought together if they
didn't have something in COM
mon such as the Bible and
the Psalms.
At first in Israel, Mrs. Ep-
stein said, there was an at
tempt to push the people
from backward countries into
the goth century, but the pat
tern of life which these peo-
pie brought with them into
el could not be over
thrown. Only through grad
Us;I education could they take
their place in the Goth CEN
tury.
Mrs. Epstein explained that
now the newcomers to Israel
are placed in their own eth
mic groups and the first year
the children attend school in
these groups. The econd
year the children are ready
to attend a central school
made up of children from va
rious ethnic groups. Slowly,
said Mrs. Epstein, the differ
ences disappear.
The spirit and devotion of
Israelis is remarkable, Mrs.
Epstein told the HadaSSah
delegates. During her stay in
Israel three American doctors
introduced open heart sur
gerry. Mrs. Epstein met one
of the doctors on his return
trip to the US. and he said
he was amazed to find such
skill and devotion a m ong
workers at the IIadassah
Medical Center.
Mrs. Epstein told of the
tremendous impact of Israel
on the small countries of
Asia and Africa. A group of
Burmese are spending a year
in a Kibbutz learning coop
erative farming. An Israeli
medical team will leave short
ly for ETHIOPIA to train people
there in modern medicine.
There is hope, Mrs. Epstein
pointed out, that modern
medicine and technology will
spread from Israel to other
Middle East, African and AS
ian countries. Through par
ticipation in HadaSSah, the
national leader said, women
are not only Strengthening
their Jewish roots but are
serving as link between this
country and the Middle East.
At one of the convention
meetings Mrs. Epstein vas
presented $150,00O in life in
Surance to take to the ma
tional office. Under a nnW
plan HadaSSah members may
insure themselves for $1,000
with HadaSSah as the bene-
ficiary.

Strangled last Saturday in the

John Y. Kerr, executive di-

owners have banded together
as the Upper Rock Greek Valley
Land Owners Association.
In conjunction with s. E
Sanders, a city planner, Mr.
Neumann has prepared an al
ternate plan for the watershed
He will recommend virtually
doubling the higher-density
zone. Where the planners en-.
vision about 13,300 families in
the watershed, the Sanders
Neumann plan would provide
zoning denSities to accommo-
date 25,300 families.
"The planners" Mr.. Neu-
mann said, got of on the
wrong foot" He said experts
will testify that the predicted
sitting of stream beds does not
preclude more intensive
development that that rec.
commended by park and plan
ming commission technicians.
The attorney added that
modern builders and developers
are motivated by enlightened
elf-interest."
He indicated that establish
ment of reasonable. densities
would facilitate the planners
acquisition of 1880 acres OF
park land proposed for the
valley. Developers, he said, will
be in a better position to dedi-
cate park land if the overall
zoning pattern is realistic.
The Senders-Neumann plan
in fact, recommends 1000 more
acres Of park land than is an.
ticipated by the planners.
Besides the land owners
group, nearly every well-organ-
lied civic body in the county
