  • The Autobiography of Sam Effron
    THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF SAM EFFRON PART I My Early Remembrances My memory begins in the year 1881. On March 13, 1881, the Czar of Russia, Alexander 2nd, was assassinated. My father was living for a short time in a town called Amdur. In the month of March, on the Purim festival, father took me to a place where the Megillah (Book of Esther) was read in the evening. It is customary while reading the Megillah, when the name Haman is read, then the boys with rattlers and the men stamp their feet for joy that Haman did not succeed to destroy the Jews of Persia. But at that night of March 1881 the congregation disallowed to use that kind of joy. That is where or when my first memory begins. I suppose, I was about 5 years old. I didn't go to cheder (school) yet. My mother told me that I was born the 10th day of the Jewish calendar month of Tevet. That comes about December, but in what year I do not know. I imagine about the year 1876. There are a few more incidents that I remember as early as 1882. A brother of my father by the name Shmeril, the father of Morris Effron, died that year. I still remember his appearance. He was short and stocky, just like Morris. Also the grandfather of Sadie Effron, wife of William Effron, died. He was a young man, also a sage. The old Rabbi of the town of Amdur passed away that year, and the whole community of Amdur mourned after him for a long time.

  • Pastoral Work by the Catholic Church in Belorussia (1917-1984)*
    Pastoral work by the Catholic Church in Belorussia (1917-1984)* TADEUSZ POLESKI In this report, Belorussia means the territory of the present Belorussian Socialist Republic in the USSR. It was created on 1 January 1919 and comprised then the pre-revolutionary territory of Minsk province (excluding the districts of Novogrudok (Novogrodek),· Pinsk and Rechitsa (Rzeczyce).l As a result of the Second World War and the subsequent administrative changes Brest (Brzesc), Grodno, Vitebsk (Witebsk), Mogilev (Mohylow) and GomeI' regions were incorporated into Belorussia. In 1983 Belorussia had 9,744,000 inhabitants on a 2 2 territory of 207,600 km • The majority ofinhabitants---.:7 ,568,000-are Belorussians (77.6 per cent), Russians are in second place -1,134,000 (11.69 per cent), and Poles third - 403,000 (4.19 per cent). Other nationalities are represented in small numbers. A large group of Belorussians -1,895,000 -live in other republics of the Soviet Union, especially in the neighbouring Russian republic (1,052,000). Some 406,000 Belorussians live in Ukraine and 181,000, as a result of deportation, in Kazakhstan. In 1897 the number of Belorussians was estimated at 5,740,872. Ofthis number 4,662,000 (81.2 per cent) declared themselves Orthodox, and :.1,050,000 (18.2 per cent) Catholic. The corresponding figures for 1917 give the number of Belorussians as 9,300,900. If we break down this number into denominations in the same proportions, we have figures of 7,552,000 Orthodox and 1,692,000 Catholics. 3 A minute percentage of Belorussians were Protestants or Old Believers.
