Too Much Anti-Semitism Noted in Protestant Ranks

Eban: No Power Can
Deny Israeli Jerusalem

(Continued from Page 1)
The study grades ministers on
an anti-Semitism index — with 37
per cent scoring "none," 46 per
cent rating "low," and 17 per cent
falling in the "medium to high"
category.
The researchers say that
church pronouncements exone-
rating the ancient Jews of deicide
"will not reduce the anti-Semi-
tism of Christians unless they
are coupled with an attack on
notions of the contemporary
Jews as damned and an object
of divine retribution."
Using a list of statements about
Jews to measure anti-Semitism, the
authors found that while 80 per
cent or more of the clergymen
questioned rejected each of the
four most invidious comments,
only 37 per cent rejected all four.
For example, 10 per cent of the
clergy agreed with the statement
"Jews are more likely than Chris-
tians to cheat in business," with
the range of agreement varying
from 6 per cent of the Methodists
and Episcopalians, through 15 per
cent of American Baptists and
Missouri Lutherans, to 19 per cent

JERUSALEM (JTA) — Foreign
Minister Abba Eban declared in
the Knesset that "no power in the
world can ever change the status
of Jerusalem as Israel's capital."
That status, he said, "is rooted
deep in Jewish history and in the
Jewish people's faith, and has re-
ceived tangible expression in the
life of the State of Israel since its
inception."
Eban stressed that the govern-
ment had never adopted the mem-
orandum submitted three years
ago by Moshe Benvenisti, now
Jerusalem's city councilor, which
noted the possibility of restoring
some areas outside the municipal
boundaries to Jordanian sove-
reignty.

Yadin Tells How He Recovered
Dead Sea Scroll in 6-Day War

JERUSALEM—Yigael Yadin, the
soldier-scholar whose archeologi-
cal exploits surpass even his
leadership on the battlefield, has
revealed an interesting sidelight
to the Six-Day War: the recovery
of one of the most significant of
the Dead Sea Scrolls ever found.

of Southern Baptists. The 1966
study found that 33 per cent of
Protestant laymen accepted the
item with denominational diffe-
rences about the same.
"Because Jews are not bound by
Christian ethics, they will do things
to get ahead that Christians gen-
erally will not do" elicited 20 per
cent agreement from the clergy-
men. Among the more conserva-
tive denominations, 28 per cent of
the American Baptists, 31 per cent
of the Missouri Lutherans and 41
per cent of the Southern Baptists
agreed. The answers approximated
the 36 per cent "yes" response
of the laity.
On the third item in the index—
"Jews want to remain different
from other people, and yet they
are touchy if people notice these
differences" — half of the clergy
agreed, or only a little less than
the 57 per cent agreement found
earlier among laymen. By denomi-
nation, 46 per cent of the Metho-
dist clergy agreed, 59 per cent of
the American Lutherans and 61
per cent of United Church of
Christ ministers.

ports that Yadin has just revealed
the details of his find—a scroll
describing the rites of the Temple
in Jerusalem and the rules of
purity of the Essene sect in the
Judean desert.
In June 1967, Yadin was serving
as special military adviser to
Prime Minister Levi Eshkol. The
night after Jerusalem and the West
Bank fell to Israeli troops, he
recalls, he was awakened from
sleep by a sudden thought—with
liberation, a certain address in
Bethlehem that had been on his
mind for years was now accessi-
ble.
The following morning, Yadin
dispatched two officers to Bethle-
hem. They returned with a care-
fully wrapped scroll, found beneath
the floorboards in a house.
Yadin decided to pay $75,000
for the scroll to encourage per-
sons holding others to produce
them. This was the final install-
ment on a sum paid seVen- - years
earlier, when Yadin was in Eng-
land. „ _
At that time, Yadin was con-
tacted by a man who told him
that a scroll was for sale.
The contact said the scroll was
in the possession of 'someone on
the Jordanian side of the -armistice
line in the Jerusalem area. The
asking price would be between $l-
and $2,000,000. These circumstances
were similar to those tinder which
Yadin's late father, Elea2ar
Sukenik, also an eminent archeolo-
gist, purchased the first of the
Dead Sea Scrolls.
Yadin insisted on seeing the
scroll before making any offers.
Several weeks later, the inter-
mediary returned with a small
piece of torn parchment Yadin
recognized as written by the scribe
of the Dead Sea sect.
Yadin offered $100,000 for the
scroll, and the contact asked for
$10,000 to cover his expenses until
the deal could be consummated.
Yadin gave him the money but
never saw him again.
In years following, Yadin scanned
Jordanian publications for hints
that the scroll had been sold. But
he found none. Only with the war
did the largest Dead Sea Scroll
come into his nossession—at a
discount.

per cent) accepted the fourth item
—"Jews, in general, are inclined
to be more loyal to Israel than to
America." About three in 10 (31
per cent) of Protestant laymen had
given the same response five years
ago.
The fifth item in the table found
the clergy (13 per cent) to be al-
most as willing as the laity (15
per cent) were to believe that
"Jews are less likely than Chris-
tians to oppose Communism"—

with Methodists the least prone and
Missouri Lutherans and Southern
Baptists the most prone to accept
the statement.
Over all, it was found that while
one of five laymen had rejected
all the anti-Semitic statements,
nearly two of five clergy did so.
It was also found that among the
clergy, anti - Semitism is more
highly correlated with their reli-
gious convictions than was the
case among church members.
