Mrs. Faber Describes Reactions
Johanne Silver Weds Plan Detroit Section for JNF's
to Her 'Strange Way Home'; Works Robert Eisenberg
Kennedy Peace Forest in Israel
The establishment of a Detroit linking his name with the land
on Book on Mental Retardation
section of the John F. Kennedy of Israel. As a memorial we
"I am primarily interested
that people should live together
in harmony and that religious
strife should be a v e r t e d,"
Nancy W. Faber declared in
interviews during her one-stay
based. on the true story of a
Jewish child who was abducted
by his French Canadian tutor
from his New York home when
he was seven and was taken to
Catholic institutions and
trained for the priesthood, Mrs.
Faber related how, six years
ago, she first heard about the
incident and began gathering
the facts when she was told
that the boy, now in his middle
sixties, had located his family
in this country, was briefly re-
united with them and then re-
turned to the Canadian monas-
tery.
The complications that had
set in, the difficulties encoun-
tered in getting the true data,
presented a real challenge to
Mrs. Faber. But the published
result is one of the sensations
of the year in novel publishing.
(Mrs. Faber's "Strange Way
Home" was reviewed in The
Jewish News on Sept. 20 and
there was a follow-up story on
Oct. 4 about the release of the
book by the publishers when
some protests were heard
against it from a priest and a
member of the boy's family—
all of whom later conceded that
Mrs. Faber's account was fair
and unprejudiced).

her by her publishers, Henry
Regnery Co. (14 E. Jackson
Blvd., Chicago 4).

Mrs. Caroline Pace, of the
Regnery Co. staff, who accom-
panied Mrs. Faber to Detroit,
said that the interest shown
in the book seems to assure
for it a prolonged interest
and increasing large sales.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Faber took
occasion to speak here about
her major interest—her work
on a book on mental retarda-
tion.
Having just concluded a
worldwide tour during which
she studied the problems of\
the mentally retarded in many
lands, including Israel, Mrs.
Faber hopes to have her re-
search work published within a
year. Regnery again will be her
publisher.
She reports that the number
of mentally retarded is about
the same proportionally
throughout the world — 3 to 4
per cent.
Lippincott has published two
of Mrs. Faber's children's books
—"Cathy at the Crossroads"
and "Cathy's Secret Kingdom."

envisage John F. Kennedy Peace
Forest to be in the heart Ameri-
can Israel Freedom Forest on
the ancient site of Beitar where
2,000 years ago Bar Kochba
fought his last battles against
the legions of Rome for Israel's

ceived the approval of Israel's

ment and the people of Israel.
