ANTI-JEWISH SURPRISES: The Bicentennial, cele- brated joyfully all over the country on July 4, was marred with anti-Jewish "surprises" presented a few days earlier to the American people by two men of influence — Father An- drew Greely, a scholarly leader in the American Catholic Church, and Gen. George S. Brown, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Gen Brown's "surprise" was in a way no surprise at all. Some time ago he had made an anti-Jewish statement which provoked strong criticism on the part of Jews as well as non-Jews. He was then reprimanded by President Ford. Despite this uproar, he nevertheless reiterated before a Sen- ate committee that he still is of the opinion that American Jews exert undue influence on the U. S. Congress. It was the arrogance of his answer that came as a sur- prise. It was thought that after Ford's criticism of his pre- vious anti-Jewish public utterances he had changed his posi- tion. He made it clear to the Senate committee that this is not the case. Nevertheless the Senate approved his nomina- tion by a vote of 57-34. Fr. Greely's "surprise" came in the form of an article by him in the New York Times in which he charged that "there is a strong and powerful anti-Catholic feeling in the Jewish community" in this country. This shocking and in- citing allegation has provoked no little indignation not only among Jews but also among Catholics. JEWISH ANGER: The anger of Jewish leadership over the anti-Jewish views expressed by F. Greely and Gen. Brown was overshadowed by the Bicentennial celebration and the news of the daring and courageous raid of Israeli paratroops on the Uganda airport. The article by Fr. Greely worries Jewish leaders. Their organizations have for years been promoting Jewish-Catho- lic amity. Some of them maintain interreligious depart- ments for this purpose. The National Conference of Chris- tians and Jews has been engaged since 1928 in developing a spirit of understanding and cooperation between Catholics, Protestants and Jews. Local Jewish community relations councils in about 100 cities are working hand-in-hand with local Catholic and Protestant clergymen. One anti-Jewish statement from a respected Catholic spiritual leader like Fr. Greely can undo much of the Catholic goodwill towards Jews built up laboriously during decades. Catholic-Jewish friendship reached a high point several years ago when the Ecumenical Council at the Vatican adopted its historic declaration absolving the Jewish people from the centuries-old charge of crucifying Jesus. However, cool winds are now blowing in the ranks of the Catholic clergy in this country. Sympathy for Israel has conspi- ciously diminished among Catholic church leaders since the Six-Day War. Dissatisfaction is developing among Catholic clergy- men with the Jewish support of abortion legislation which the Catholic church opposes; also with the fact that leading Jewish organizations in this country are opposing state funding for parochial schools when the Catholic school system is now in dire need. INTERRELIGIOUS ACTION: Aware of the develop- ing weak spots in Catholic-Jewish relations, the American Jewish Committee and other leading Jewish groups are con- centrating more and more on their activities of cementing stronger Christian-Jewish relations through Catholic and Protestant churches and Jewish community organizations. One of the recent projects which the AJCommittee has in- troduced is ecumenical and inter-religious study tours to Israel at moderate costs. The tours combine meetings with Christian, Jewish and Moslem leaders in interreligious dialogue with visits to the archeological and religious sites marking the origins of Christianity and Judaism. The Christian clergymen participating in the tours are overwhelmed by their freedom t6 see and speak to a wide group of people of divergent backgrounds. They return to the United States enriched with their new knowledge of Is- rael and disseminate their impressions to their congrega- tionS. Stimulated by the AJCommittee experience, the Israel government is now planning conferences in Jerusalem of Christians and Israelis to cement their common religious heritage and explore new avenues of communication. The first such conference will take place..‘at the end of Novem- ber. Bank's First Bond Purchase Cheered ROCHESTER, N.Y. — The Jewish community of Rochester celebrated the first purchase of IIsrael Bonds by a savings bank in the state of New York, which was permitted by a new law. The occasion was a dinner of tribute-to Angelo Costanza, president of the Central Trust Co., the largest holder of Israel Bonds in the city of Roches- ter. A.
