Translation
This is especially true with regard to octogenarian Cardinal
Augustine Bea who is one of the closest men to the Pope and
head of the Council's secretariat dealing with Christian unity ...
It was to him that the .Iewish organizations presented their
memoranda containing important recommendations, and it was
he who was to see that the problems raised in these memoranda
be included in the agenda of the Ecumenical Council . . . It is
known that the Pope—whose friendship to Jews is well known—
has appointed Cardinal Bea as head of the secretariate in order
to have somebody to whom the Jews might address themselves
. . It is also known that the Pope favors discussion of Catholic-
Jewish relations at the Ecumenical Council.
