Here I want to tell my readers
of Mr. Lang's surprise in finding,
on the recent death of Hayim
Schauss that one of our boys, an
East-Side Yiddish writer, should.

source of astonishment was that
Schauss should have been
buried from a Reform Temple in
Los Angeles.

Now the mystery could easily
be unravelled by showing Mr.
Lang the imposing catalogue of
Jewish books—the only one- of
its kind—published by the Union.

It was under the guidance of Dr.
Emanuel Gameron. Director of
the N.A.H.C. that most of these
books were,published. Dr. Cam-

to recast the stories in English

This lead to the preparation of
several books climaxed by the

most illuminating volume called,
"The Life-Time of a Jew."
This does not finish for .Mr.
Lang. There are many more
adopted children of Reform. The
complete list of Reform Rabbis

in America appears in the Year-
book of the Central Conference
of American Rabbis. There are

some 350 names. I do not want
to spoil a prospectively good col

Mr. Lang to check figures and I

is a statistician and a good judge
of the origin of names, to find
out how many of these "adopted
