Hebrew and Aramaic.
The uniqueness of this work is
that it contains also, on parallel
pages, modern English transla•
tions with English commentaries
summarizing expositions of tal-
mudic scholars throughout the
ages. These commentaries are
brought down to present-day
scholarship.
Added to the originals and the
translations are brief biographies
of the cited personalities, sum-
maries of legal and ethical princ-
iples contained in the Talmud and
explanations of institutions and
customs referred to in the talmudic
texts.
Typographical expertness marks
the technical effort, and the at-
tractiveness of the booklets which
eventually will comprise the en-
tire Talmud — Babylonian and
Jerusalem—make this undertaking
one of the important literary proj-
ects of the century.

Court Studies Citizenship
of Artist Who Voted in
Israeli Election in '51

(Direct JTA Teletype Wire
to The Jewish News)

NEW YORK—A motion by 72-
year old artist Beys Afroyim for
restoration of his United States
citizenship, of which he was strip-
ped for voting in the 1951 Israeli
parliamentary election, was taken
under advisement Tuesday in Fed-
eral Court here.

to be in Israel, came to the United
States from Poland in 1912. Under
the name Ephraim Bernstein, and
also known as Beys Afroyim, he
became a naturalized citizen in
1926. After his Israeli vote, the
United States vice consul in Haifa

Civil Liberties Union counsel,

ballot box did not constitute a
sign of transfer of allegiance and

reserved decision on the attorney's
motion for summary judgment,
