A polemic against the construction and use of a swimming pool because it will make impure the holy city of Jerusalem. The pool will be at the President's Hotel . "We have forbidden staying at this hotel." We are doubling the prohibition with a severe warning
it is forbidden to stay at this hotel, they have no trust worthiness as to their Kashrut,
and the builders and the swimmers in the pool are in excommunication."
"It is a holy obligation for whoever has it in his hands to prevent those who are doing this abomination to do all that they are able to do ...to prevent the building of this swimming pool in the Holy City of Jerusalem."
The broadside is signed by R. Pinhas Epstein (head of the Edah HaHaredit), R. Yisrael Yitzhak HaLevi Reisman and R. David HaLevi Jungreis (head of the Eidah Hechareidit rabbinical court of Jerusalem,)
