ISRAEL
1955

Reports of Affiliates and Committees of The World Calendar Association, International, presented at the Ninth Annual Meeting 16 January 1956, reflect the world-wide interest in and need for calendar reform. Published highlights (JCR Vol. 25, Dec. 1955 - Jan. 1956) for ISRAEL:

Activities carried out to bring Israeli opinion round to realize the advantages of The World Calendar as such have met with not inconsiderable success, reported Mr. Daniel Sher, the Association's Representative in Israel. In fact, the advantages of The World Calendar (i.e., under aspects other than those affecting Jewish survival) are hardly any longer questioned in the Israeli press and public.

Articles in favor of The World Calendar have been published in the press, and literature has been distrubuted widely. The Hebrew edition of the monograhp, "What Israel and world Jewry Would Gain from Calendar Reform (BaMe Yoil Tikun HaLuakh HaKlali LeYisrael VeLaTfutsot)," together with a few copies of its Encglish edition were produced and widely circulated in the country--to members of the Legislature, the press, public libraries, professional organizatins and to individuals. Reactions have been as a rule favorable, the opponents seemingly preferring to ignore it altogether.

Facilities were provided to Headquarter's emissary Colin Jackson on his mission, enabling him to contact Israeli authorities and obtain first-hand information from them.

A nucleus of an Israeli World Calendar Association has been secured, the Associatoin to come into being any time its minimum running expenses can be guaranteed.
