NEW YORK (JTA) — A mid-
Manhattan Reform congregation
has instituted a trial experiment to
stimulate attendance at Friday
evening and Saturday morning
services by defraying 50 per cent
of parking charges for members
driving to the services. Arrange-
ments have been made with a
nearby parking garage where wor-
shipers can park their cars at
half-charge. Such worshipers ob-
tain parking disks from ushers on
duty at services.
