Show OHI Ralph Tannenbaum 1-24-83 s3:42 RT I do. I do. Because after all, it was the only organized non- Mormon that is non of the non Mormon churches are strong enough singularly to accomplish this. Theother side of the story is that the Mormon hierarchy , sensing this, have pretty much said if you don't want us, we don't want you. Consequently it's forbidden for any good Mormon to join the Masonic frate rnity . And yet it has become a social embarrassment because like roughly ten years ago, in Wyoming, where this ban does not exist, the Grand Master of Masons in a Mormon. So, when he came to Ut ah oo visit, where A Mormon is mt recognized in a Masonic Lodge, it became an embarrassment. Now, someday, this may be changed. It's only in Utah. It's only in Utah. L It must be really hard. RT Yes. L So what did he do when he got here. RT Oh, I think courtesy was rendered to him finally. He was allowed to sit -- embarassingly -- L And embarrassment for both sides. rT I;m sure. I'm sure. L NOw, you've heard, I'm sure ... several private clubs in towns at one time did not permit Jews. RT OK. L or were not crazyabout havin ~oo many Jews.One of them was the Alta Club. |
