 Hurwitz stood high in mathematics and had hoped to become an en- gineer, but his father wished him to

As far as could be learned today
 MT. Hartman is the only local man
 who has studied at Hebron Rabbin-
 ical school, the institution invaded
 by the Arabs with the loss of more than a dozen students lives, includ- ing that of Benjamin Hurwitz, 19- year old cousin of Mrs. George Cans of Mason Drive.
 MT. Hartman prepared for the teaching profession at Hebron in the days immediately following the World War He took up his work here three years ago. As explained by him, Hebron is a city of about 25,000 Arab population with less than 100 Jewish families Wonder ment at the establishing of one of the worlds foremost rabbinical schools in a community of Arabs, was cleared up today when MT. Hartman explained that Hebron is the place of burial of the three pa | triarchs, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and was the first capital of David, king of the Jews. It is therefore re- 1 garded as shrine of the Jewish faith. The school has more than 200 students from many countries, in cluding about 30 from the United States.
 Rabbi AronsOn Shocked Rabbi J. H. Aronson, leader of the Congregation Tephereth Israel, today expressed himself as shocked at developments in the Holy Land. ''It is not a new experience to Jewry," the rabbi assured. but to have it happen in the national home of the Jews, supposed to be under the mandate of Great Britain and the protection of the League of Ma tions. is shocking.
 We cannot understand the cause of the rioting. AS far as we know. it is the controversy over the wailing wall, but we cannot understand why the desire of the Jews to carry on their devotions should be the cause of rioting and massacre.
 "The happenings at Hebron could not have been laid to the Jews. With 25.O00 Arabs and mere 100 fam lilies of Jews, it could not have been caused by an attack on the part Of the Jews"
 Rabbi Aronson is sponsoring the day of mourning and prayer, which will probably tkae place next week. It is planned to have the Jews of the entire city gather at Tephereth Israel synagogue on Winter street and join in services for the souls of those who have lost their lives through the racial war.

 Representatives of the numerous Jewish societies and associations to- day were in readiness for a call to attend a mass meeting which may be held tonight to discuss ways and means of raising funds to alleviate suffering in the homeland. The i place of meeting had not been se- 'lected today.

Early Railroader Had
Many Brilliant Ideas

At Albany, N. Y, August 8. 1881,
the first scheduled passenger train
to be operated on American soil
puffed away from the makeshift
depot with it's Is passengers. AT
the throttle was David Matthew,
an ingenious Scotsman, destined to
become the father of railroad i'm
prOyements. Matthew was proud of
the cab that sheltered him, fer it
was the first one used and he had
devised 1t. Previous to that, en-
gineers and firemen had labOred
exposed to the elements. On sub
.sequent trip a herd of cattle
blocked the way and Matthew at
once invented what he called
"cow catcher"-it was constructed,
however, to push the cattle aside
rather than to catch them. In 1886
he made the first railway snow
pillow and included device to melt
the snow and pour the water into
a tank supplying the boiler.
Among his many other fnven-
lions were two types of handcars
(the first ones), the method of
forcing wheels onto axles by pres
sure and a device for pouring sand
under the locomotive wheels to
prevent slipping.
Matthew died in San Francisco
In 1891 at the age of seventy nine.

Many Strong Tributes
to Virtues of Garlic

Garlic is one of the most highly
esteemed and heartily despised of
vegetables. The ancients praised it
with enthusiasm, as a cure for all
sorts of bodily ills-among them
indigestion, sunstrOke, tubercu-
losis, bronchitis and smallpox. 1t
figures in the Bible: "We remem-
ber," the rebellious children Of
Israel told Moses, "the fish which
we did eat in Egypt freely; the
cucumbers, and the melons, and
the leeks, and the onions, and the
garlic"
Historians say that the Pyramids
could not have been built but for
the garlic fed to the slaves and
'captives. Pliny says: II cannot
overpass the foolish superstition Of
the Egyptians who use to swear
by Garlick and Onions, calling
them to witness in taking their
'oaths." Garlic a god! The French
do not deny it, but as a condiment
they seem almost to reverence It.
So also. assuredly. do the Italians,
to whom it is a necessary Of life.
