The true pioneer spirit of Hadassah was a motivating force in aiding the dynamic development of this new nation during its critical years of nationhood. At times Hadassah had to enter new fields of service as soon as local government could take over following the establishment of the country. The various projects of Hadassah range from medical and public health services to education and care for child refugees brought to Israel by Youth Aliyah. This great womens organization stands today as an outstanding example of vision and imagination not only for Jewish women but for similar organizations throughout the world. It is my hope that the years ahead will be filled with the same success of the past half century and it is a pleasure to extend such wishes to Hadassah on this occasion.
