    CHAPTER 28
    RHODESIAN JEWS IN WORD WAR 1

    Considering that the entire Jewish population of Rhodesia only numbered
    a few hundred, the frequency with which Jewish names occur in the military lists is
    noteworthy. Thus we find Lieutenant Byron Jacobs, son of a Bulawayo stockbroker,
    serving with the buffs in France, where he won the Military Cross, while carrying ammunition to a front line trench under heavy fire. Seeing another soldier fall, Lieutenant
    Jacobs stopped to pick him up and brought him to safety.

    GREEKS PROBE DEATH OF RICH BRITON IN SEA Howard Samuel Began with $500
    ATHENS, May 7 [Reuters]- Athens police today opened an investigation into the death of a British millionaire body was washed ashore on a nearby beach yesterday.

    Howard Samuel, 47, a real estate tycoon, arrived here Friday night, registered at the Grande Bretagne hotel, and went to Glyfada beach 12 miles south of Athens for a swim yesterday morning. Lifeguards recovered his body a few hours later.

    The British consulate sealed his hotel room after police re- ported his death. A post mor- tem was scheduled for tomor- row.

    The coroner said the possi- bility that Samuel died of a heart attack could not be ex- cluded. The sea at the point where his body was found is shallow.

    Despite his wealth, Samuel was a Socialist. He was a friend of the late Aneurln Bev- an, Labor party leader, and a director of the Socialist week- ly Tribune.

    Samuel left school at 16, and became a surveyor s clerk. He started in the realty business with a capital of $500. Later he and his brother, Basil, formed their own realty f i r m a n d amassed a fortune.

    In 1944, he married Jane Lane, an artist whose work has been exhibited in London and New York City. They have two children, Nigel, 15, and Nicola, 10. Their marriage was dis- solved in 1958 but they re-mar- ried four months later.

    Samuel and his brother in 1959 launched a s u c- cessful company, Great Port- land Estates Ltd., taking over their already extensive London interests.

    They sold $3,864,000 worth of Great Portland shares and their remaining shares were es- timated to be worth $11,200,000, The company s tenants include the British Broadcasting corpo- ration a n d London's central electricity authority.
