there is a remote clue to Wurm-
brand's aim at abandoning his
Jewish faith. He states:
"The idea of becoming a Chris-
tian pastor was . . . far from my
thoughts, and from those of my
Jewish parents. My father died
when I was 9 and our family was
always short of money, and often
of bread. A man once offered to
buy me a suit of clothes, but when
we went to the shop, and the tailor
brought out his best, he said, 'Much
too god for a boy like this.' I still
remember his voice. My schooling
was poor, but we had many books

Sholom Aleichem Seen
as Relevant for Today

NEW YORK (JTA) — Although
the material for "Fiddler on the
Roof" and much of his other works
were based on 19th Century East-
ern European life, Sholom
Aleichem has earned a place
among the world's great writers
due to the timelessness and uni-
versality of his themes, according
to a study completed at Yeshiva
University.
The study is considered to be
the first comprehensive critical
treatment in English of the writer,
and was completed as a doctoral
dissertation by Dr. Lillian Heimo-
witz at the F e r k a u f Graduate
School of Humanities and Social
Sciences.
Dr. Heimowitz, of Riverdale,
N.Y., said that Shalom Aleic-

hem's appeal to today's au-
diences can be attributed to the
writer's concern with such con-
temporary issues as the gen-
eration gap, the conflict between
parent and child, the need for
purposeful application of af-
fluence, the relationship between

Christian and Jew, and the prob-
lems of the depressed and de-
prived.
Dr. Heimowitz recounts, too,
Sholom Aleichem's optimism and
courage, which permeates his
writings, despite the author's fail-
ing health and personal tragedies.
The "Tevya" stories, now fam-
iliar to all the world through the
success of "Fiddler of the Roof,"
reflect much of the suffering of
the author and his family, and
also what Dr. Heimowitz considers
a "remarkable manifestation" of
a religious faith which conceives
of a dialogue between man and
God, man and his fellow man, and
man and beast.
A teacher of English in New
York City's public schools, Dr.
Heimowitz has served as chairman
of the School Committee at the
Riverdale Temple and a member
of the Religious Education Com-
mittee of the Union of American
Hebrew Congregations.

Sabbath Poverty Hearings
Rescheduled; Earns Praise

NEW YORK (JTA) — The Amer-
ican Jewish Congress has express-
ed gratification that the New York
City Council Against Poverty had
agreed to re-schedule poverty hear-
ings originally set for the Jewish
Sabbath.
In a letter to James E. Green-
idge, director of the Poverty Coun-
cil, the Congress had noted that
the hearings of appeals on alloca-
tions on Saturdays would work

hardships on Jewish Sabbath ob-
servers who would be unable to
attend.
In a reply to Herman Brown,
director of the American Jewish
Congress' Metropolitan Council,
Greenidge called the Saturday
dates "a procedural error" neces-
sitating the re - scheduling of the
poverty hearings, and said that
"consideration will be given to the
issue you raise concerning Sabbath
observers."
The Council Against Poverty, of
which David J. Billings III is chair-
man, also issued a memorandum
to its members, chairmen and di-
rectors of delegate agencies and
community corporations asking
them to disregard the dates as a
"mistake in judgment."
New dates for appeals will be

announced.

at home. Before I was 10 I had
read them all and became as great
a skeptic as the Voltaire I admired.
Yet religion interested me. I
watched the rituals in Orthodox
and Roman Catholic churches, and
once in a synagogue I saw a man
I knew praying for his sick daugh-
ter. She died the next day, and I
asked the rabbi, 'What God could
refuse such a desperate prayer?'
and he had no answer. I could not
believe in an all-powerful being
who left so many people to statye
and suffer, still less that he had
put on earth one man of such
goodness and wisdom as Jesus

Christ."
Except for this confessional there
are no other indications why a
Jewish playboy became a Lutheran
pastor.
The story related in his "In God's
Underground" is about the sup-

pression under Communism. Kid-
naped, jailed, believed dead by his
wife and family, he survived not
only to tell the tale but also to
preach, as he does now, exposing
the terrors he had suffered.
While his Jewish background re-
mains a puzzle, the conversion
hardly convincing, his story about

the jail terrors is most revealing.
He told of his experiences to the
Senate Internal Security Subcom-
mittee in 1966 and he is now tour-
ing the United States on a personal
crusade he calls "The Mission to
the Communist World."
