Fathers Hail Historic
On Catholic Relations
VATICAN CITY (ITU-Ecumenical
Council fathers gave
warm and prolonged applause
today to the presentation of
historic statements on Catholic
relations with Jews and on re
ligious liberty.
The statements declare that
feus should not be made scape
goats for the crucifixion of
Christ and proclaim the right of
all men to the free exercise of
religion according to the dic
tates of conscience.
Although the statement on re
ligious liberty received t h e
greatest applause, the council
fathers gave close attention to
the presentation on the state

Rocky 'More Encouraged'
Following Trip To Capital
WASHINGTON (UPI) - New
York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller
wound up a support-seeking
visit to the nation's capital to
day on an optimistic note. He
said he was "more encouraged"
than ever that he would w in the
11)64 GOP presidential nomina
tion. Rockefeller, the only an
nounced Republican presidential
candidate admitted, however,
that he is running behind Sen.
Barry M. Goldwater, R-Ariz.,
but he expressed "no doubt"
that he would overtake Goldwa
ter in the months ahead.
The New York governor met
w ith a number of GOP senators
during his visit. Sources said he
attempted to discount reports
that he was in the presidential
race merely to stop Goldwater
and make way for a third can
didate. Rockefeller was said lo

ernmental red tape were to
gether again today, partly be
cause of the help of a member
of President Kennedy's staff.
But although the story of Har
Krishan Gupta and his wife
Simian is a sentimental one. it
was probably because of hard
headed national interest that
Presidential Assistant Theodore
Sorcnson played a part in it.
Gupta and his wife are both
natives of the stale of Kashmir
in India.
The holder of a masters de
gree from the University of
California, Gupta is employed
as an engineer by the Washing
ton State Department of High
ways. The department freely admits
it has difficulty filling its engi
neering jobs and could not re
place a man of Gupta's caliber
if he decided to quit.
Almost Leaves U. S.
He did quit last month, in
(act, alter giving up "of ever
being able to get his wife into
the United States." He was
gone for five weeks and his job
was unfilled for that period.
But a few days after Gupta
resigned to accept a job in
Toronto, Canada, w here h i s
skills were needed and his wife
was welcome, Sorenson told the
Immigration Service that it
would be "in the public inter
est" to let Mrs. Gupta come to
live United States.
That letter apparently turned
the trick. In a matter nf days,
Gupta was on his way back to
Olvmpia.
The Guptas were married in
India in October of 19R2.
Kris, as his friends here call
Vim. had returned to his native
land to attend his brother's
wedding. While he was there he
fell in love.
He was told at that time that
his wife could join him in the
United States in about four
months.
But as soon as he arrived
hack in this country, Gupta
learned he had been misin
formed and it could be as long
as seven years before his bride
could join him.

dozens of persons wrote scores

tian unity.
The German-born cardinal
said the statement was a purely
religious matter and that there
was no question of the council
getting mixed up in difficult
cult questions of Arab-Israel
politics.
Oriental Fathers Object
Some Oriental council fathers
had objected Monday that the
special treatment of the Jew s in
a document on Christian unity
could lead to the persecution of
Christian minorities in the Arab
world.

Rockefeller was accompanied
by his bride since May, Mar
garetta (Happy) Rockefeller,
who described the capital visit
as her "most exciting" since
her last one a wartime trip
w hen she pedaled lo the city on
her bicycle from an aunt's home
in nearby Arlington, Va. It
was Rockefeller's first Washing
ton visit since announcing his
candidacy.
Rockefeller, often holding
hands with Happy, met groups
of tourists and congressional
employes during a three-hour,
hand-shaking tour of the Senate
Monday that included a subway
ride, a view of the Senate in
session, three short news con
ferences, lunch, thousands nf
photographs and hundreds o
autographs.

Statement
With Jews
The document is intended to
recall w hat the church of Christ
has received through the Old
Testament of the Hebrews and
that the church in modern times
is the continuation of the cho
sen people of Israel, Bea made
clear in his presentation.
Despite the cardinal's speech,
three more prelates today ob
jected to the inclusion of the
statement on the Jews in the
overall document on Christian
unity.
Emile Cardinal Legcr of Mon
treal, Canada, said both the
chapter on the Jew s and that on
religious liberty should be de
creed as separate documents.
Gives Presentation
Bishop Emile De Smedt of
Bruges, Belgium, gave the pres.
entation of the chapter on reli
gious liberty on behalf of Car
dinal Bca's secretariat.
His report was greeted with
what the official council spokes
man called "the longest, warm
est and most general applause
of this session."
Bishop De Smedt said the
proposed teaching on religious
liberty climaxed a doctrinal ev
olution on the dignity of the hu
man person and religious liberty
which reached its peak in Pope
John's last encyclical "Pacem
in Tcrris" (Peace on Earth).
The religious liberty chapter,
prepared partly at the urging
of the American church hierar
chy, proclaims the right of in
dividuals to follow their con
sciences in religious matters
and to worship freely or refrain
from worship without govern
ment interference.
If approved, this would be the
first unequivocal Catholic state
ment of tliis view. The church
has traditionally held that "er
ror does not have the same
rights as truth," a position
which has sometimes been
interpreted as a denial of re
ligious liberty.

The Guptas appeared at the

cratic leaders, with one nota

would return to the Democratic
fold in the 1!)B4 presidential
election.
Top level Democrats pointed
to the enthusiastic receptions
given the President on his
whirlwind tour of Florida Mon
day to back up their optimism.
But Gov. Karris Bryant, who
also traveled with the Kennedy
party, was hesitant to say out
right that Florida would swing
back lo the Democrats after
voting Republican in the last
three presidential elections.
"It's loo early to say, or at
least for me to," Bryant said.
But he added he was encour

Tampa and the Miami area.
The President was greeted, in
ideal weather, by relatively
large and friendly crowds.
Florida GOP Chairman Tom
