Arabs Withdraw From Debate; Jews Go On, Even Conduct Services

By NORMAN M El,NICK National Jewish POST Correspondent NEW PARIS, Ohio (NJP)— A Jewish college professor and an area leader in the Zionist Organization of America led evening services at the Methodist church in this small farming community on the Ohio-Indiana line, after a scheduled panel discussion on Middle East tensions didn’t materialize. Three Arab students at the 11th hour declined to appear on the advice of their superiors in New York. THE REV. CLAIR KOHR, pastor of the church here, told The POST that the Arabs, students at Earlham College in Richmond, Ind., w’ere instructed by “men of older years that their appearance at such a meeting might be misconstructed.” Mr. Kohr termed the affair “unfortunate.” adding that "it would have been a broadening thing for our congregation.”

The minister said he gently reproached one of the Arab students. “We need to sit down and share these things,” the student was told. However, the student advised Mr. Kohr that he couldn’t share the same platform with Israeli spokesmen, but would be happy to come at any other time and discuss the Holy Land on a non-political basis. While the debate was conceled, Paul Flacks, president of the Dayton, Ohio, district of ZOA, and Dr. Justus Rosenberg, associate professor of French and German at the University of Dayton, were persuaded to appear at the Sunday evening program, anyway. HOWEVER, when the two men arrived at the church here, whose congregation numbers several hundred, they found only five women in attendance. Mr. Kohr had a previous engagement to address the county grange and had left the program

in the hands of the church's missions commission. “We were slightly taken aback.” commented Flacks. The women, making what Flacks called a “moving plea,” prevailed on both outsiders to lead the services, since no one was present to undertake the task. Thus, Rosenberg read from the scriptures and Flacks directed the group in hymns. MR. KOHR later explained, apologetically, that the Sunday evening program is his own invention, but so far has proved “unpopular.” He blamed th< poor attendance at this meeting on the great numbers of congregation members who apparently were “visiting relatives.” In a letter to Flacks from the lady chairman of the missions commission, both Flacks and Rosenberg were thanked “gratefully” for their co-opera-tion and staying power. Then the lady chairman added: “Maybe I can do something for you some time.”

did in the United States.

At Park Forest, 111., approximately .30 miles from Chicago, Klutznick built an entire city - homes, schools, business .-notion, in fact everything. 'Die city which he established on the Illinois prairies is now : a bus-

tling community of 30 000

Now Klutznick and O. BenAmi. the mayor of Natanya. are planning a similar project near Ashdod. which will cost 10 million Israel pounds initially, and which it is hoped will develop into a

city of 100-150,000

in a per P»d

of 20 years.
