He's Mendel Bells.
That names familiar to you, isn't
it? Eight years ago it was the talk
of three continents.
Bells was the central figure in the
world-famed murder trials at Kiev

BELLS slew Andrew Yushinski, Chris

Bells was acquitted he had
languished in filthy prisons and had
been beaten and mistreaIcu by moDs
But that was only the beginning
of his suffering. He went to Pales
tine where American friends had
promised to buy him a small farm
But the world war broke out and he
was stranded.
With more toll ana misery, he
worked his way to America Upon
his arrival he learned his son Pincus
had died in Palestine
So Bells sits today, his shoulders
bowed under a weight of grief, his
eyes mirroring suspicion anG olsUrusu
hoping that Fate has better things IN
store.
