CHICAGO, (JTA) — N e w
Catholic efforts to end anti-
Jewish prejudice are underway
in the Chicago area following
a special meeting on Catholic
Jewish relations sponsored by
the Chicago Catholic Interracial
Council.
More than 200 Catholic lead-
ers discussed such relations
and a panel of four Catholic
and Jewish clergymen and lay-
men discussed the topic. The
session also featured the show-
ing of a film on Catholic-Jew-
ish relations, "The Chosen Peo-
ple," which was produced by
the National Council of Catho-
lic Men.
The new anti-prejudice cam-
paign in Catholic churches was
started by Albert Cardinal
Meyer, Archbishop of Chicago,
wso is encouraging priests in
his diosese to preach against
racial and religious prejudice
this year.
Cardinal Meyer has told the
priests that "in the Mass, in
the prayer after consecreation,
we speak of Abraham, as our
father. This fact points to the
absurdity of anti-Semitism on
the part of Catholics. We are
the spiritual decendants of Ab-

Two short novels by Elie Wie-
sel, "Night" and "Dawn," al-
ready are among the highly
commended literary products of
the author, who is a correspond-
ent for an Israeli newspaper at
the United Nations and who
covered the Israel-Arab war for
a French newspaper.
His third short novel, "The
Accident," published by Hill
and Wang (141 5th, N.Y. 10), in
an excellent translation from
the French by Anne Borchardt,
follows the earlier tradition and
is certain to win acclaim and
an appreciative reading public.
"The Accident" is a story
about a man who, as he was
walking along the busy New
York theater avenue, was struck
by an automobile and landed in
a hospital overlooking the East
River. He escaped death and
the tale relates his remini-
scences—his fear for life, his
loss of the will to live, his recol-
lections about his youth, the i
lessons he learned from Jewish
sages.
He recalls the story of one
girl he met who was ravaged by
the Nazis at the age of 12 when j
she was caught in the cauldron
of hate, about her later life and
the tragedy that was aftermath;
of the Hitlerite horrors.
The love affair with the girl
who was with him when the ac-
cident occurred, the discussions
with the attending physician,
the possibility of securing com-
pensation and other details add
to the stirring effects of the
tale. The story concludes with
the appearance of the artist,
Gyula, who presents him with a
portrait which he later destroys
—this being a symbol of the life
and death struggle—and of Gy-
ula saying to him: "You should
know that the dead, because
they are no longer free, are no
longer able to suffer"; and the
admonition he recalls his grand-
mother having uttered: "Fear
nothing."
"The Accident" is a stirring
tale, attesting to the skill of the
author as an able narrator.
