zenship from two
Ukranian-born men who

States.

Federenko following a 7-2

prove that Federenko had
lied about his past when he
entered the U.S. in 1949 and
did not need to prove that he
had participated in the
beating and shooting of
Jewish prisoners.
In the Philadelphia
case, Osidach was tried
in a non-jury civil action
here last fall. He was ac-
cused of concealing his
role as an officer in the
Ukrainian police force, a
force which actively
helped the Nazis send
Jews to their deaths, in
order to enter this coun-
try in 1949 and later to ob-
tain citizenship.
Neal M. Sher, deputy di-
rector of the U.S. Justice
Department's office of spe-
cial investigations, prose-
cuted this case.
Osidach will appeal.
Bishop Calls for Jews and
Catholics to Work Together
A
leading American Catholic
prelate has declared that
"Catholics and Jews can
today work and dialogue
and never before in all the
ages of our often troubled
and yet still common his-
tory."
The Most Rev. John
Roach, newly-elected
president of the National
Conference of Bishops, U.S.
Catholic Conference, told
the Synagogue Council of
America that "Today,
through dialogue, Chris-
tians are coming to realize
that many of our previous
assumptions about the na-
ture of Judaism were, to put
it kindly, wrong."
Roach, who is Archbishop
of St. Paul and Minneapolis,
told the Synagogue Council,
the first Jewish group he
addressed since his election-
as president of the National
Conference of Bishops, "It
must be. admitted, in deep
sorrow, that what the Sec-
ond Vatican Council called
the 'spiritual bond' linking
our two peoples tended to

Appeal Made
for Wallenberg
BONN (JTA) — The
Stockholm-based Raoul
Wallenberg Association has
called on President Reagan
to help free the man who, on
the request of President
Roosevelt, was sent to
Budapest in 1944 to save
Jews from the Nazi invad-
ers.
In a letter addressed to
the White House this week,
the Association said, refer-
ring to Wallenberg:
"He saved 100,000 and
was captured by the Soviets
in January 1945. Although
the Soviets claimed Raoul
died in 1947, he is still lan-
guishing in Gulag. Accord-
ing to recent information
his state of health is alarm-
ing, so please use your
power and make him a main
issue in deals with the
Soviet Union."
If Wallenberg is alive, he
would be 68 years old.

long periods in centuries
past. Often it was honored
more in the breach than in
the proper spirit of love."
"Yet," he continued,
"since we believe the link to
be divinely forged, out of the
very election of our two
peoples to serve God's will,
the Christian must pro-
claim that it is a link which
can never be wholly
broken."
