Program to Implement
Vatican Ruling on Jews
ST. LOUIS (JTA)—An intensive
12-week program implementing re-
cent Vatican pronouncements striv-
ing for more meaningful Catholic-
Jewish relations has been an-
nounced by the office of the super-
intendent of schools in the Arch-
diocese of St. Louis and the Mis-
souri regional office of the Anti-
Defamation League of Bnai Brith.
The program, consisting of two

the encouragement of Archbishop
Joseph Cardinal Carberry, who,
through last December, served as
chairman of the commission on
Ecumensism of the United States

JDC Aid for 14,000
Refugees Reported
GENEVA — The Joint Distribu-
tion Committee has given welfare
and migration assistance to some
14,000 Jews from Eastern Europe,
North Africa and the Middle East
who have sought temporary asylum
in Western Eupore in the two and
one-half years since the Six-Day
War, Samuel L. Haber, JDC exec-
utive vice chairman said on his ar-
rival here at JDC's overseas head-
quarters.
JDC's total costs for the care of
these transmigrants have already
exceeded $3,000,000 during this pe-
riod, Haber revealed. The JDC re-
ceives funds for aid to transmi-
grants and for health and welfare
services in over 25 countries main-
ly from the campaigns of the
United Jewish Appeal.
