Cardinal Asserts Bonds With Jews

SANTIAGO, Chile (JTA)—Raul
Cardinal Silva Henriquez, arch-
bishop of Santiago, addressed a
capacity audience in the largest
synagogue here.
He lectured on the theme of "re-
spect for the individual in the Old
Testament," and asserted that, at
this time, on the eve of the fourth
session of the Ecumenical Council
to be convened at the Vatican in
September, the Catholic Church is
conscious of the thought that "all
men have bonds to the people of
God."
Considered throughout Latin
America as one of the foremost
progressives in the Catholic
Church, Cardinal Hendriquez thus

pointed up his continued inter-
est in having the Ecumenical
Council adopt definitively the
declaration on relations with
non-Christians, passed by the
Council's last session, last win-
ter.
That declaration would repudiate

once and for all the charges of
deicide against the Jewish people,
and would denounce anti-Semitism.
Cardinal Henriquez cooperated
with the late Pope Pohn XXIII in
the Vatican's move to absolve the

Jews of the deicide accusation.

and victimization of the older per-
