Jews in Spain Enjoy
New Legal Standing
MADRID — (NC) — The new
legal status granted earlier this
year to the Jewish minority in
Spain annulled a decree of expul
sion promulgated nearly 500 years
ago.
The decree of 1492 had com
pelled the Jewish people either to
become Christians or to leave
Spain. Many went into exile, but
some stayed. Today there are
many Spaniards of Jewish descent
who are Catholics.
Until the end of the 19th cen
tury, Jews were not allowed to
return to Spain. The 5,000 living
there now came mostly after that
time from Spanish Morocco.
The new legal status, approved
especially for the Jewish communi
ty in Madrid, applies to all other
communities in the country. It
grants them full religious and
cultural freedom. They can estab
lish their own schools, synagogues,
he was known in the Franciscan
order, in which he was ordained
in 1917, by his religious name, Fa
ther Didymus Beautfort, O.F.M.

The Madrid weekly, Signo,

status marks a historic event. This
“new attitude toward the Israelite
people, in whose heritage we are
deeply rooted, frees us from a
number of prejudices contradict

Says Religious Belief
Still Strong in Russia
MUNICH, Germany — (NC) —
A Soviet scholar says religious be
lievers constitute a large percent
age of the Soviet population and
that this percentage shows no tend
ency to decline.
Nadezhda A. Teodorovich made
this statement in a paper written
for the Institute for the Study of
the USSR, a corporation of scholars
who have left the Soviet Union.
Miss Teodorovich, who worked for
psychiatric institutions in the
USSR, was active in church affairs
there during a time of intense per
secution. She is currently a mem
ber of the research section of the
Institute for the Study of the
USSR, here.
Although official Soviet propa
ganda contends that religion is
practically non-existent among the
young people, Miss Teodorovich re
counts a not uncommon “split” in
the spiritual life of a young Rus
sian citizen. Valya Shurtakova
was known at her job in Moscow
as an active, effective comiminist.
At home, 25 miles from Moscow,
she was an open believer and an
active parishioner. Until she was
badgered by the press, Valya man
aged to play the two different and
fundamentally incompatible roles.
Though she warns that the pres
ent Soviet leadership is as unal
terably opposed to religion as ever
its predecessors were, Miss Teo
dorovich says recent events in the
world communist movement have
had a favorable effect upon the
position of the church and of be

lievers in the Soviet Union.
Among these are the revision of
the Italian and French commu
nists’ previously inimical attitude
towards religion, the exclusion of
a paragraph from the rules of the
Communist party of Yugoslavia on
the incompatibility of party mem
bership and religious affiliation
and amnesty for political prison
ers in Rumania, including Catholic
priests.
A favorable influence has also
been exerted by efforts of various
international organizations, emi
nent social figures and representa
tives of the sciences and arts to
promote religious freedom in the
Soviet Union, Miss Teodorovich
said.
