Vatican" -Will Adopt Pro-Jewish Declaration New York UTA) — Richard Cardinal Cu.sh.ing, Archbishop of Boston and a leading liberal Catholic prelate, expressed confidence this week that the Cath;olic Church would "eventually" Indopt the declaration on Catho"lie-Jewish relations by-passed at the last session of the Ecumenical Council. He coupled his prediction with n call for immediate closer relationsliips between Catholics and Jews. The schema which v the Council session did not treat ; rejects Jewish responsibility for < the crucifixion of Jesus, and " warns Catholic against anti-Jewjsh. sentiments and activities stemming from the ancient Christian charge of decide. The Cardinal made his statement as the principal sneaker ••at the annual Brotherhood Week luricheon, conducted by the Manhattan region of the National Conference of Christians and Jews, and attended by more than 1,000 guests. Leaders of the Protestant, Jewish and Greek Orthodox faith were among the honored personages on the dins and among the official participants, in addition to many leading Catholics. Most of the Cardinal's address dealt with the schema on re• Jigious liberties and Catholic';Jewish relations introduced at ; the Vatican Council by Augus"••:tin Cardinal Bea, head of the •'; Secretariat for the Promotion of Christian Unity. Cardinal Cushing, one of the prelates at the Ecumenical Council said he had worked closely with Cardinal Bea. He emphasized that he was speaking "not as a commentator or bystander" but as a Catholic Bishop. • He cited the fact that the proposed schema would absolve Jews of blame for the death of Jesus and that "preachers and catechists and liturgists" in the hierarchy would be warned "against anything in their teaching that could offer a basis for anti-Semitism." He added: • "The whole world is eager for 8 statement such as this, as well as for the one on freedom of conscience. The voice of the Church on religious liberty and cur relations to the Jewish peopie is awaited in universities, in national and international organizations, in Christian and nonChristian communities, in the press and elsewhere, and it is being awaited with urgent expectancy. I am convinced we Bhall not be disappointed." He expressed "great personal regret" that the last session of the Council did not act: on the statement and he urged that

The music for the show, originally produced in 19211 in Germany, is by that musical genius of the century Kurt Weill with the dialogue'being produced by Bertolt Brecht. M a r c B1 I zstein adapted the musical to English and the play had a lecord six year off-Broadway run to capacity audiences. Audiences who have seen the first three performances of The Threepenny Opera have been thrilled by the exhilirating and lilting music, the exceptional costumes, and the unusual story.

there be no waiting for the Council to speak officially "before we undertake the dialogue and theological confrontation encouraged in this chapter." He .suggested that the failure of the Council to take up the chapter was not a rejection and that "the delay could be useful." He said "we live in an atmosphere that is new and good. We have a sense among Christians, Mr. and Mrs. Nate Bordy, forand between Christians and Jews, of common heritage which merly of Omaha, now residing we share in various ways; We in Los Angeles, were honored are in the springtime of new dis- by their children, Mrs. David coveries of one another."
