Impressions From Trip Behind "Iron Curtain1 See Story on Page Three Rabbi Soloveitchik Issues Statement On Vatican Draft NEW YORK� The Rabbinical Council of America, an Orthodox group, made public a statement by Dr. Joseph B. Soloveitchik of Brookline, outstanding American Orthodox rabbi, commenting on the revised draft of the declaration on Jews by the Catholic Church presented to the third session of the Ecu- menical Council which opened its deliberations Monday at Vatican City. "I fail to understand the surprise and dismay," he said, "with which prominent Jewish leaders who ac- tively participated in the theological "Dialogue" with the Catholic Church have greeted the latest draft of the Schema. The first draft of the Schema, in my opinion, was as evangelical as this one. The only difference between the two Schemas Sherman Gift Underwrites Hospital Unit The Children's Hospital Medical Center has an- nounced receipt of a gift for construction of a new emergency center to serve sick children who visit the Hospital from all parts of New England. The gift of an undisclosed amount, was presented Children's by Mr. and Mrs. George Sherman of Boston. The new center, to be called The George Sherman Emergency Serv- ice, will constitute an area of major importance in reception and treat- ment of emergency cases, according to Dr. Leonard W. Cronkhite, Jr., the Hospital's general director. Architects and engineers are now working on detailed plans for the emergency clinic. Construction is expected to start in 1967, and be completed in about eighteen months.

While the first Schema contained only an oblique and indirect appeal to the Jewish community to embrace Christianity, this one addresses itself to us di- rectly. "Both Schemas present the typical Christological view that the his- torical mission of the Jews ex- hausted itself in, the so-called Praeparatio Evangelica, in paving the way for Christianity and that the Jew, after the Biblical drama was consummated in the rise of the Church, forfeited his covenantal status and his very relationship to the Biblical past because he re- jected Christ. "Since the Jewish leaders did not object to this premise contained in the first Schema, they should not be surprised now that the Church, in which Jewish history supposedly culminated, expects the Jew to re- activate his role as a historic being, emerge from historic anonymity,, and realize his destiny by ceasing to exist within the framework of a separate community. "Those who are perturbed now should have realized before that the theological "Dialogue" was bound to become a theological mono- logue on the part of the Church, which is not ready to depart from her basic interpretation of Jewish his- tory.

Mayatsky's book, selling for only 11 kopecks (12 cents) and frankly "intended for the general reading public," was issued at the very tinte that leaders of the Soviet Commu- nist Party announced an official ban on a previously issued anti-Semitic work, "Judaism Without Embel- lishment," published by the Aca- demy of Science in Kiev*.
