MONTREAL (JTA)—The res-
ignation was announced here of
Rev. Father Stephane s Valiquette
from his position as director of
ale Canadian Council of Chris-
tians and Jews in the province of
Quebec. Father Valiquette is one
of the foremost Catholic authori-
ties on Judaism and has de-
voted nearly two decades to
Catholic-Jewish goodwill work.
He is considered primarily re-
sponsible for the program which
changed the atmosphere in Que-
bec, which had- been a hot-bed
of racialism and anti-Semitism.
Until Father Valiquette's as-
sumption of the Council post late
in 1953, following a pilgrimage to
Israel and Rome, the Council of
Christians and „Jews did not func-
tion in French Canada. No cause
has been given for Father Vali-
quette's resignation, but it is
known that his appointment was
made upon a temporary and ex-
perimental basis two years ago.
