 Awarded Promotion

At the close of the war he assisted the Jewish Welfare Board in organ izing their hut at Benonne, France, and was subsequently, promoted as Director in charge of the Cantonment of the Jewish Welfare Board with the Army of Occupation and among the first to enter Germany.
 Captain Shapiro also engaged him. self in preparing sanitary surveys of
 European cities for the Rockefeller
 Institute, and travelled extensively
 through the country visiting various
 hospitals where he came in contact
 with many distinguished physicians.
 His duty was to establish Health Gen.
 ters and experiment in Laboratories
 discovering preventatiyes for new dis eases arising. He became an fnstruc- tor. at the University of Benonne, France. where he trained the A. E.. F. for reconstruction work. During the time he was engaged in this work he encountered many narrowing experi- enceS.
 Captain Shapiro writes of the beau tiful country of Albania surrounded by high mountains which is situated on the Adriatic sea between Turkey and Italy. He expects to return to the states this fall and complete his stud ies at Johns Hopkins University, Bal timore, Maryland. He is now but 27 years of age and extremely anxious to obtain his degree as M. D. of Pub lie Health. Before entering the Uni versity, Captain Shapiro will visit his mother, Mrs. Esther M.

POLICE SECURE
 STOLEN AUTO

Last night, for the second time within two weeks, the police Of Mamaroneck, N. r., recovered an au- tomobile which was stolen in Bridge port. The machine was owned by Daniel Kenney, of Kenney & Ross 362 Gregory street, and was stolen from this city in November, 1918. Since that time the car has changed hands four times. The parties who were in possession of the car at the time of it's recovery by the police were not arrested inasmuch as their pur- chase of the machine was apparently legitimate. The automobile was traced through circulars sent out by the Bridgeport police department.
 In view of the fact that a number of stolen cars have recently been recovered in Mamaroneck, the police are endeavoring to ascertain whether or not a "feyce" for stolen machines exists in that city. It is believed that this condition may be a fact, due to Mamaroneck's proximity to the state line Automobile thieves would prob ably have but little trouble in getting stolen cars across the line, and then altering them so as to almost defy recognition.

 From the time he discontinued the pursuit of medical studies at Yale University in 1916 and voluntarily en- listed in the Ambulance Corps of the U. S. A. at Fort Slocum, Captain Sha- piro has worked diligently toward the goal of accomplishing things worth while and characteristic of an Amer ican soldier.
 Captain Shapiro's experience in the U. s. A. is history in itself and sounds a thrilling keynote in his interesting autobiography.
 After remaining at Fort Slocum for several weeks training, orders came through effecting his transfer to the French Sector where he was one of the organizers for the Allied Force Medical Laboratories at Dijon, France, just before the United States actually took part in real warfare. For his splendid work in this particular dis trct he was afforded a fellowship at the University of Paris where he spe- cialized in Public Health and Prevent ative Medicine andS was finally com- missioned a first lieutenant.
