Roman Catholic Leader Blasts Capucci Deed, Cover Up Effort
S. ORANGE, N.J. (JTA)--
"Archbishop Capucci's deed
and Patriarch Maximos' at-
tempt to whitewash him have
disgraced the Melkite (Greek
Catholic) Church, indeed all
Christians," a Roman Cath-
olic leader declared here.
The statement, released by
Msgr. John Oesterreicher, di-
rector of the Institute of
Judaeo-Christian Studies at
Seton Hall University, re-
ferred to Archbishop Hillar-
ion Capucci who is presently

on trial in Jerusalem on
charges of smuggling arms
to terrorists in Israel and
maintaining contacts with
terrorist agents.
"What makes the whole
affair so disconcerting is the
twisted • mind - and drugged
conscience of the archbishop.
He seems to consider the
smuggling of 20,0 pounds of
arms, ammunition and explo-
sives . . . quite compatible
with his episcopal office but
protests against his incar-
ceration as offending his
rank," Msgr. • Oesterreicher
said
"The air surrounding the
Capucci affair becomes even
more turbid if one recalls the
archbishop's 'd e f ens e' by
Patriarch Maximos V" ac-
cording to whom "it was not
Capucci who joined a con-
spiracy against Israel/' but
"the Israeli authorities who
plotted his arrest as part of
their 'attempt to Judaize the
city of Jerusalem and drive
its people away by various
terrorist methods," the state-
ment continued.
Msgr. Oesterreicher said
that on the other hand, "We
must . . . be deeply grateful
to Archbishop Raya, till re-
cently the shepherd of 40,000
Melkites in all of northern
Israel, for having balanced
the ledger, thus allowing
Christians to hold their- heads
high again. In no uncertain
language he condemned

Lord Shinwell Honored at 90
LONDON—With the excep-
tion of a two-year period
early in his career, Emman-.
uel Lord. Shinwell has been
a member of the British Par-
liament since 1922.
The Jewish MP turned 90 in
recent weeks, and his birth-
day party was attended by
British Prime Minister Har-
old Wilson,. and 'four former
prime ministers.
According to the London
Jewish Chronicle, Shinwell's
record is remarkable. The
son of a Polish immigrant, he
entered the House of Com-
mons 52 years ago, and has
held six cabinet posts with
various governments.
He was the first Jew elect,
ed as a Labor MP, and was
described as one of "the wild
men of the Clyde" represent-
ing Scottish workers who be-
lieved. in socialism.
For many years, the Chron-
icle reported, he remained
aloof from the Jewish com-
munity. He explained that
this was because he repre-
sented a mining district with
little contact with Jewish or-
ganizations. ._
He admits he had few
dealings with issues of Je-W-
ish concern during his long
Parliamentary career, but
did speak out against Hitler
in 1933, and amazed followers
during last year's Yom Kip-
pur War when he urged
young Jewish MPs to "have
the courage of their convic-
tions."
Although never associated.
with Jewish or Zionist organ-
izations, Shinwell proudly af-
firmed his Jewish origins. In
1938, after a member of the
House of Commons made an
anti-Semitic threat, Shinwell
crossed the floor and struck
the man.
In 1948, when Britain sur-
rendered the Palestine man-
date and withdrew her forces,
Minister for War Shinweli
took measures to insure that
Jews would not be discrimin-
ated againit in disposal of
military hardware.
In later years he enthusias-
tically supported Israel.
- Golda Meir remarked how
deeply moved she was at a
recent conference of the So-
cialist International, when
she saw Shinwell leading the
"Solidarity with Israel"
march in her honor.
Shinwell was honored at
the recent opening of Parlia-
ment with the request that he
introduce the Queen's speech,
an invitation usually extend-
ed to younger ,politicians on
the Way p up.
He said he was uncertain
if he would accept the honor:
"They say the speech has to
be uncontroversial," he said,
"and I don't know if I can
manage that."
