LONDON, Ontario, (JTA)
The Presiding Bishop of the
Protestant and Episcopal
Church in the United States
said he was in full agreement
with the United States Su-
preme Court ruling last June,
which outlawed the recitation
of the Lord's Prayer in the pub-
lic schools.
The Rev. Arthur Lichten-
berger made his statement on
a visit here before going on
to Toronto for the. World An-
glican Congress there. He
added that some Episcopalians
approved of the Supreme
Court ruling and some did not.
"The Lord's Prayer is not
necessarily a mark of religious
faith," he asserted. "The Su-
preme Court decision was not
a denial of the Christian faith—
it simply put it in proper per-
spective. The United States is
a secular state of minorities."
He added that he felt the ban
on prayer recital "has opened
the way for the objective study
of religion."
His comments came against
a background of repeated
statements in the local diocesan
Anglican monthly, strongly up-
holding religious instruction in
public schools, which is per-
mitted in the Province of On-
tario. The Bishop of Huron has
denounced persons he said tried
to "interfere" by pressing for
modification or abolition of
such teachings in Ontario
schools.

Dinner Chairman
Max Biber, president, and
David J. Cohen, chairman of the
board, of Beth Yehudah Schools,
announce the launching of
Yeshivah activities in the field
of adult Torah study, next Wed
nesday, 8 p.m., with a lecture by
its newly elected principal,
Rabbi Chaim Tzvi Hollander at
Young Israel of Northwest De-
troit.
The discourse which will pre-
ceed the monthly meeting of
the board is open to Talmudic
scholars. It will precede com-
mencement of classes on Sept.

The arrangement of Rabbi
Hollander's address follows the
tradition of "Yarche Kalla" in
the Academies of Sura and
Pumbedita, where the Babyl-
onian Talmud was composed,
which devoted two months a
year — Adar preceeding Pass-
over, and Ellul preceeding the
High Holy Days — for convoca-
tions to study Halach and Agada.
At a meeting of Yeshivath
Beth Yehudah's executive held
at the Biber home last Monday,
Judge Nathan Kaufman w a s
named chairman of arrange-
ments for the 1963 business-
mens' Council dinner on Nov.
10 at Cobo Hall.

Israel Jews Do Not Discriminate
Against Christians, Says Bishop
TORONTO, (JTA) — The
Anglican Bishop of Jerusalem
declared flatly that Jews in
Israel do not discriminate
against Christians. He said
that "to my knowledge there
has been no social discrimina-
tion against Christians in Israel
similar to the kind of discrim-
ination against Jews in other
countries."
The Rev. A. C. Maclnnes,
whose diocese takes in the en-
tire Middle East, came to To-
ronto to attend the World An-
glican Congress which started
this week. He said there has
been discrimination against the
200,000 Arab Christians in
Israel, "but they have been
discriminated against as Arabs,
not as Christians." He added
that it was necessary to remem-
ber that "Israel is at war with
the Arab nations."
He agreed there had been
much controversy in Israel con-
cerning Jews who have married

Five Days of 'Open House'
Tours Set by Shaarey Zedek
Congregation Shaarey Zedek
will hold open house with guid-
ed tours of the new synagogue
at Northwestern Highway and
Bell Road, on five successive
days, Sunday, Aug. 18, through
Thursday, Aug. 22. On Sunday,
the open house hours will be
from 10 a.m. through 3 p.m.,
and Monday through Thursday,
7 to 10 p.m.
The public is invited to the
open house, which was planned
to fulfill the many requests
Shaarey Zedek has received,
asking for an opportunity to
see the entire interior of the
structure that looms up so dra-
matically on Northwest ern
Highway.
The guided tours will encom-
pass the entire building, in-
cluding the main sanctuary
with its 40-foot Ark, the Chapel,
the social halls and kitchens,
and the educational section,
with its 20 classrooms, language
laboratory and library.
The new Shaarey Zedek re-
quired 14,400 square feet of
pre-cast concrete panels, 6,200
square feet of triangulated win-
dows, 600 tons of structural
steel, 3,000 square feet of
stained glass, 20,000 square feet
of plate glass, 18,000 square
feet of wood panels and 7,350
cubic yards of "cast in place'.'
concrete.
Dedicated last Dec. 12, the
edifice was designed by Per-
cival Goodman, New York archi-
tect, with Albert Kahn Associ-
ated Architects and Engineers,
Inc., of Detroit responsible for
mechanical aspects. The 0. W.
Burke Co. was the general con-
tractor.
The adjacent parking lot,
with room for 500 cars, will
provide parking space for open
house visitors. Refreshments
will be served at the conclusion
of each tour, through the cour-
tesy of the Shaarey Zedek
Sisterhood.

Christians, but he did not re-
gard this as having anything
to do with discrimination.
There is still much debate in
Israel over the age-old ques-
tion of defining a Jew, he said,
adding he felt that this ac-
counted for one of the difficul-
ties in Jewish-Christian mar-
riages and problems faced by
Jewish converts to Christianity.
He said that, in Israel, the act
of a Jew becoming a Christian
was "simply looked upon as a
contradiction."
