BOMBAY, India, March 15. (IP)—
Squeaky shoes are in great demand
by ruling Indian princes and chiefs
who have hit upon this as a means
of impressing their barefoot subjects.
The louder the shoes squeak the
higher the price.
The idea of wearing leather soles
which make their presence known
with every step of the wearer origi
nated by chance some time ago in
the State of Junagadh. One of the
chiefs of the Chudasama tribe had
purchased a new pair of footweaar
and they creaked everlastingly as he
strutted among the natives at fes
tive gatherings. His subjects were
more humble than ever. Some of
the rajahs, ruling princes and the
chiefs of numerous principalities
have since taken to squeaking shoes,
which are worn only upon ceremon
ial occasions. The shoes with the
squeaks are especially made for the
trade here by several firms in Eng
land.
ZIONIST LEADER IS OFF
TO SEE BLACK JEWS
JERUSALEM, March 15. (/P)— Dr.
Alexander Goldstein, prominent Zion
ist leader, has begun a tour of re
mote Jewries, some of which have
never before received a Zionist emis
sary. .
Bombay and Calcutta, where there
are about 10,000 Jews, will be visit
ed first and from there Dr. Goldstein
will journey to the widely scattered
communities of Rangoon, Singapore,
Java, Sumatra, Australia, New Zea
land, Japan and China.
Perhaps the most interesting fea
ture of the trip is Dr. Goldstein’s
contemplated visit to the white “Jer
usalem Jews” and the Black Bene
Israel of Cochin, India. The former
group, numbering about 10,000 claim
that their ancestors came to India
immediately after the destruction of
Solomon’s Temple. A still more ex
otic group are the 20,000 Bene Is real,
who are believed to be descendants
of Hindu converts to Judaism or of
mixed marriages between Jews and
Hindus. Both the white and the
•black jews of Cochin, who speak na
tive dialects, are devoutly observant
of their religious tradition*.
