CHASSIDIC RABBI,
FASTED 40 YEARS,
. PASSES, AGED 74
WARSAW.-(J. T. A.)-Rabbi
Meier Yechiel, known as the Os-
of Ostro-
wiec, one of the most unique fig-
ures in Polish Jewry, ascetic and
scholar, died Sunday at the age
of 74.
Born in Skierniewice, the son of
a baker, Rabbi Meir Yechiel estab-
lished an independent school of
ascetic Chassidism, gaining a large
number of followers among the
Jewish population in Congress Po-
land. A mathematician and Tal-
mudic scholar of unusual depth,
Rabbi Nleir Yechiel also ministered
to his Chassidic followers by coun-
sel and prayer. He declined, how-
ever, to accept remuneration, as is
the usage among the Chassidic
leaders. A Part of his salary which
he received as the rabbi of the
community he sent to Palestine
for charities there.
Embracing the theory that life
on this earth was given, not to be
enjoyed, the ascetic scholar took
it upon himself when he was 30
to spend his days and nights in
study and prayer and to abstain
from eating, every day except
Saturday, when it is a religious
commandment to eat. For over
40 years he continued these six-
day fasts each week, although phy-
sicians warned him against this
practice. At night, he went to
bent in his clothes in order not to
enjoy his sleep.
Although a recognized author.
ity on Jewish law, whose opinion
and advice were invoked by the
leading rabbis, Rebbi Muir Yechiel
was very reticent in his modesty,
and although he was the author of
numerous works on Talmudic la•,
the Cabala and Chassidic sub-
jects, he prohibited his friends to
publish his works (luring his life-
time.
Rabbi Sicir is survived by a son,
Ezekiel, who is rabbi in Nasielsk,
and who will succeed him in his
Chassidic post. Thousands of the
followers of the Ostrovtzer Rebbe
from all parts of Poland came to
Ostrowice to pay tribute to their
leader at his funeral. The scholar
had many friends and admirers
among non-Jews.
Ten thousand persons, among
whom were 50 rabbis, attended the
funeral at Ostrowice. The board
of the Ostrowice Kehillah voted a
life pension to the widow. She
will receive 100 zlotys monthly.

Survey Shows 1,728,000 Jews in Greater
New York; 30 Per Cent of Population
Economic and Social Rise of Largest Jewish Community in
History of the World Traced in Jews' Onward March
From East Side to Bronx, Brooklyn and Park Ave.
NEW YORK..-(J. T. A.)-The
Jewish population in Greater New
York was placed at 1,720,000 on
the basis of estimates, in the Jew-
ish Communal Survey fil Greater
New York, the results of which
were made public this week by the
Bureau of Jewish Research.
Brooklyn has supplanted Manhat-
tan as An( center of Jewish popula-
tion
d "for some time to come
will have to he the new focus of at-
tention" as far as a Jewish com-
munal program is concerned, ac-
cording to the survey.
Jews' Onward Marco.
In the statistical tables of the
survey the steady economic growth
of the Jewish community is shown.
The onward march from the tene-
ment districts of the lower East
Side is portrayed in chart form and
the story in figures describes the
movement to Yorkville, Harlem,
Bronx and finally into the l'ark
Avenue section. The survey, which
was undertaken almost two years
ago at the direction of a citizens
committee, of which Judge Otto A.
Rosalsky is chairman and Dr. Lee
K. Frankel is chairman of the exe-
cutive committee, was made by a
staff of 50 reasearch workers head-
ed by Samuel A. Goldsmith, execu-
tive director of the bureau. It in.
eludes, in addition to a study of the
movement of the Jewish popula-
tion of the five boroughs, a study of
mortality among the Jews and an
evaluation of-communal resources
in the fields of child care, family
welfare, health, delinquency work,
communal organization, recreation
and Jewish education.
On the basis of calculations of
the school population of Jewish
children, as prepared for 1925 by
the Jewish h.ducation Association,
the survey places the general Jew
ish population at 1,720,000. In that
year, the study reveals Brooklyn
had 45.6 percent of the Jewish pop-
ulation of New York City.
Man-
hattan was second with 20 per cent
and the Bronx, with 22 per cent
was third. Queens, according to the
latest figures, has three per cent
and Richmond one-fifth of one per
cent.
New York 30 Per Cent Jewish.
I n 1910, according to the study,
:here were 06,000 Jews in Man-
hattan; in 1925 there were 499,500,
or a decrease of 28.3 per cent with-
in the decade. Nlanhattan was di-
vided into eight borough sections
by the workers for the purpose of
study, as follows: Lower East Side,
Central East Side, Lower West
Side, West End, Yorkville, Harlem,
West Ilarltim and Washington
Ileights. Of these eight sections,
Washington Heights alone showed
an increase in the number of Jews,
from 21,511 in 1915 to 41,320 in
1925, or a gain of 08.0 per cent. Of
Manhattan's Jewish population,
52.9 per cent live on the Lower
East Side and in Harlem, as
against 50.14 per cent in 1916, but
in the earlier year the Lower East
Side haul 23.5 per cent of all of New
York City's Jews, as compared with
15.2 per cent in 1925. Similarly,
although Harlem's Jews made up
23 per cent of Manhattan Jewry in
1925 as against 21.4 per rent in
1915, they decreased from 9.9 per
cent of the Jewish population of
the entire city in 1916 to 6.6 per
cent in 1925.
The Jewish population of Great-
er New York constitutes 30 per cent
of the city's total population. Over
the decade ending 1925, New York
City's population increase was 16.4
per cent and the increase in Jewish
population was similar.
Decentralization of New York
City's Jewish population is cited as
the most striking feature of the
population drift. This distribution
has been due to a direct movement
from congested to middle class
areas. The movement in Manhat-
tan has been out of the Lower East
Side and Harlem, the two most pop-
ular areas, the survey shows.
