Humor Galore in—
Saul Davis' Book
About Shlomele
"The Adventures of Shlo-
mele" is so hearty a story that
something should be said about
its author, Saul Davis.
This humorous book, which is
being likened to the charms of
Sholom Aleichem and Mark
Twain, was published by
Thomas Yoseloff (11 E. 36th
St., NY 16).
The author is 74. Born in 1882
in the Ukrainian town of Valo-
darka, the home of Shlomele,
Mr. Davis has lived in England
since 1898, has written articles
for many journals and trans-
lated Russian and French works
into English.
Shlomele is a character the
author well knew. Therefore, he
was able to describe him ' with
warmth and understanding. Of
course, there is no Valodarka on
the map of Russia, but only the
name is mythical. The city, its
people, its' hero are real.
In the typical Shtetel, Shlo-
mele lived the life of a lad • in
the ghetto who studied the To-
rah, watched the activities of
the pious, had one escapade
after another, tried his hand at
trading, got into scrapes with
the town ruffian, and met with
disastrous results in wooing the
rabbi's daughter.
Shlomele also had his scrapes
with Russian officials. His esca-
pades caused him to be absent
from his own Bar Mitzvah.
The railroad and the ship play
their roles. There are adven-
tures on Shlomele's trip to Lon-
don, where the story ends.
There is a lot of char in this
tale. It is full of humor and it
will delight all readers.

WASHINGTON (JTA)—Wil-
liam Friedman, 64-year-old code
expert has been voted $100,000
by the Senate for his 35 years
of service as the government's
top cryptanalyst. The unusual
measure is intended to com-
pensate Friedman, in part, for
seven machines he invented but
could never exhibit commercial-
ly because they were — and
still are — top secret.
Friedman, who has been the
U. S. Army's top cryptanalyst
since 1921, first became inter-
ested in codes when, as young
genetcist in Chicago, he devel
aped a romantic interest in' a
girl who was looking for ciphers
in the plays of Shakespeare
which would prove that they
were really written by Francis
Bacon. They never proved any-
thing of the sort,' but Friedman
got the girl — who turned out
to be a cryptanalyst herself —
and went on to make a life work
of codes. As to the Bacon-
Shakespeare project, Mr. and
Mrs. Friedman jointly finished
a book on the subject last year
which won the Folger Shakes-
peare Library's annual $1,000
prize for the best manuscript
on an Elibabethan subject.
Friedman was born in 'Russia
and brought to this country at
the age of 2. A graduate of Cor-
nell University, he previously
won an Army commendation
medal for the exceptional
civilian service in 1944, was
awarded a'Medal of Merit by
President Truman in 194$, and
the National Security Medal for
intelligence work when he re-
tired from active service last
year.

CINCINNATI—Plans to keep
pace with the "phenomenal
growth" of Reform Jewish con-
gregations by increasing the
number of new rabbis being
graduated each year by Hebrew
Union College-Jewish Institute
of Religion were announced by
Dr. Nelson Glueck, president of
the world's oldest rabbinic

need for rabbinic leaders by
new congregations, the College-
Institute's board of governors,
at its annual meeting here, re-
established its New York school
as a full graduate school with a
five-year program - leading to
ordination of Reform rabbis.
The intensified growth of the
Reform Jewish movement also
resulted in the establishment of
a California branch ocf - the
College-Institute in Los . An-
geles with the first two years
of rabbinic training ,leading to
a Bachelor of Hebrew Letters
degree being made available
particularly to university under-
graduates.
