A(Iol()h S. Ochs read llic proofs of hi.s nwu' oliit*iary stvcnil montlis ago, and blue-penciled all extravagant praise . . It wa.s Ochs who instituted thc iron-clad rule of no wonmii reporters for the Titnts, althouRh he had a high opinion of. women writers . . . Whenever he was imprr^Kcd with a particular piece of writ¬ ing jti his paper he had no hesitancy about tclIiiiK the writer so, and very frcfiuently invited hitn or her for a week- eiiil.at his summer home- . .-It w.is Och.i, personally, who gave Bernard Postal, onr luanaging editor, a job as an office hoy ill tile Times eighteen years ago ... Of all the, hundreds of article!; that were Written on Adolph S. Oclis on the occa¬ sion of his seventy-fifth birtjiday two years ago hc liked, best of all Louis Kittciiberg's essay, which appeared in Thc American Hebrew, and had it re¬ published in brochure form for distribu¬ tion, among his friends . . . Rit'tcnberg's article dealt with Adolph S. 0(ihs the Jew . . . There is a very cozy dining room on the top ^oor of the Tiih« Annex, and few ccIchriticSj whether Ger¬ man finance ministers or anti-Nazi jour¬ nalists, passed through New York with out beinfT Ochs' hinchcon guests up there ... The technical layout of XYxiiNcw York Times is still considered the best in the country, but few know that Adolph Ochs \cry frequently supervised the make-up of the front page ... Ochs did not know any card jaines, and was not very much interested in the theatre or the movies . . . His i^reatest pleasure was to listen to aiitlioritalivc discourses on various subjects . . .

Judge Irving Lehman, President of the Welfare Board and of Temple] Emanu-El also, called the rabbi to order, pointing out that in Temple Emanu-El the pre±>ident takes a back seat . . . The rabbi apologized, and credited his uncalled-'for remark to his sense of humor . . . Did you know that Mrs. John Strachey telephoned her husband frpm New York to Chicage about his arrest in that synagogue lie fore it actually took place, because the Hearst pai>ers pub¬ lished the story before it hapiKticd ?... CHIll-CHAT It seems that there is a hot race on be-. twccn Samuel Untermyer and His. Em- hieiice, William Cardinal O'Connell, for thc Gottlieir Medal for 1931, due to the elTectivc campaign which. Alexander Brin, editor aiul publisher of the Boston Jeivish Advocate, is carrying on in beliaU of the Cardinal . . .
