HOUSTON, Tex. (JPS). — . Re-
form Congregation Beth Israel -
of this city, under fire for its
"basic principles" which bar
from voting membership all who
adhere to kashruth and subscribe
to the belief that the Jews are
a nation, has now begun a mail
campaign among Reform con-
gregations in the U. S. in an ef-
fort to explain its position.
Leopold L. Meyer, president of
the Congregation, announced that
printed copies of the critical res-
olutions" have been sent "to the
rabbis, officers and trustees of
the 300 Reform Congregations in
the United States."
_ The resolutions were adopted
by the membership of Congrega-
tion Beth Israel Nov. 23. The
resolutions criticize the Union of
American Hebrew Congregations,
central body of Reform con-
gregations, for "the recurring and
constant compromises of the
principles of Reform Judaism,"
as evidenced by "failure of the
delegates representing the
Union" at the American JeWish-
Conference to "publicly an-
nounce a dissent from the Pal-
estine resolution."
