BALTIMORE, December 26.-Unit-
ing approximately 500 couples during
the forty-eight years of his business
career as official Hebrew marriage
broker or "Shadchan," without one OF
the marriages hitting the matrimonial
rocks and that he is yet to receive his
first complaint of mismating. is the
proud boast of Max Gendason of TINS

500 WEDDINGS, WITHOUT 4 DIVORCE,

constrained to utilize the knowledge
and experience of an expert marriage
broker.
The "Shadchan's" methods of per-
suasion are numerous, but the most
enthusiastically American addition
to his work is the guarantee against
a lawsuit for breach of promise which
might follow if the prospective bride
groom should reject the girl who is
recommended and introduced to him.
While many parents today are op-
posed to the "Shadchan" idea of mar
riage. others think it a good guaran
tee of happy life because of the in
vestigation of the "Shadchan." who
delves into the characters and life of
the principals. When either ones
character is questioned the match is
not made, and the name is taken off
his list for all time.
Gendason, who is known practi-
to thousands. in the eastern part of
the country. says he succumbed to
the "Shadchan" idea in Russia and,
made his first match when he was 16
years old. When business is dull he
makes frequent trips to neigboring
states.
Has No Standard Fee.
The matchmaker has no standard
fee for bringing about marriages, but
usually after the ceremony he re-
ceives one from the couple according
to the brides dowry. This fee varies
according to the financial condition
of the parties concerned. but seldom
does he receive less than $50. On
many occasions the amount is con-
siderably higher. When the couple
is in rather unfortunate circum-
stances and cannot afford to pay the
commission only small fee is
charged.
In explaining the business. Genda-
son first gets his clients ideal. The
list is then combed for such a per-
son. and if not the right man or
woman is available, a search is in
stituted. Then. providing the prin-
cipals measure up to the "Shad-
chan's" moral Standards. an intro
duction is arranged. If both parties
are pleased and willing to take the
venture, the ceremony is arranged.

Pedestrians and Automobiles.
To the Editor of The Star:


Your editorials regarding the traffic
situation in this city have been read
with interest as well as those of other
papers of Washington. Traffic, condi-
tions here are certainly very bad-notice
that | said traffic conditions, and | In
clude pedestrians In this category.
Automobiles are very often driven by
selfish, careless or inefficient men and
women. and as far as you go in con-
demning these, l go with YOU.
But there is one thing that you seem
to forget: pedestrians can go along the
street and run into each other and dam
aged feeling are the worst result. But
an automobilist is driving a car that
represents a value of between $500 and
s10, ,ooO-he cannot drive along with his
thoughts dwelling pleasantly in rosy
clouded castles in Spain If he runs
into another car he stands chance of
losing his investment to say nothing of
his life.
bureau deliberately pause in front of an
automobile that was crossing the II
street trolley tracks and thereby greatly
endanger the driver of the car and tie
up traffic. The car was going slowly
and the driver did not want them to
jump out of his way, but only to keep
moving at the same rate they were be-
fore he blew his horn. Instead of this
they stopped and insulted him.
How many pedestrians dart out from
between cars parked. parallel to the
curb? 1t takes a good driver to always
avoid them. Why do pedestrians cross
the street with their thoughts on the
nebula hypothesis? Automobilists can't
do everything. The other day an old
man seemed lost in some pleasant dream
on a crossing-I blew my horn. to no eff
feet; put on the brake and blew again.
he woke up with a start and cursed me.
What else could I have done? Have
not the automobilists rights as well as
pedestrians?
Let us regulate the automobilists by
all reasonable means-that is right. 1t
is equally obligatory to regulate pedes-
trians. This is for their own good.
Automobiles are prohibited from side
walks-pedestrians can dream there all
they want to, and while they may have
an inalienable right to dream would
respectfully suggest that they wake up
for the short time it takes to cross a
street. ROBERT Y. BARkLEY.
