Communists.
He acted under mandate from

He was to open formal discussions

the leaders of all the parties. The
Herut party, however, seeing
slight to themselves in the arrange

leaders by Ben wi, refused to send
its leaders.
The Herut leaders found cause
of offense in the fact that the pre-
sident had first called in the re-
representatives. of the parties in the

The Herut said the invitations
should have been extended in an

Center Row
Also Flares
In Houston

Phoenix isn't the only COM
munity which is having to re-
solve the disputed question OF
whether to open its Jewish Com
munity Center on Saturdays.
The same issue is being fought
out in Houston, Texas, accord
ing to the Houston Jewish Her
ald-Voice. The board of directors
of Houston'S Jewish Center vot-
ed to open the Center on Satur-
day. But the opposition continued
to press for closing, and the board
then voted to defer the opening
while the matter was discussed
further.
Leaders of the pro-cloSing
group predicted that the Satur-
day opening of the Center would
cause a rift in the community.
One opposition spokesman said
that if the Center were opened,
he would not be able to enter
the building at any time. He
claims all the rabbis in Houston
favored Saturday closing.
Alternative: Movies
The pro-opening position was
summed up by DR.. D. L. White,
editor of the Herald-Voice, in
these words:
1.-THE same people who have
guarded the good name of the
Center, promoted its growth :.
and improved it's facilities were
now adding a service to the
Youngsters of the community
the attempt at giving a we'll
rounded program to them on Sat
urday afternoon which would
give them Jewish environment,
Jewish contacts and stimulative
program. The appreciation of the
Sabbath was one of the under
living motives in the thinking OF
many of the men who voted for
the Center opening. Can these
youngsters learn the apprecia-
ton of the Sabbath in some
movie house or window shop
ping?"
In Phoenix, the opening of the
entire Center on Saturday was
not at issue but rather just the
opening of the swimming pool.
The matter came to a vote of the
Center board earlier this sum-
mer. as it also did last sum-
mer. Both times the board voted
to stay closed.
