SACRAMENTO, April 1G—Califor
ia pedestrians have as much right in
he middle of the street as automobiles
t was ruled by the third district court
f appeals.
R. Devechio, recently exercising his
ight, was knocked down by a motor
('hide piloted by Walter A. Barr. He
sked the Supreme Court of Madera
ounty for $10,000 damages. The trial
/as dismissed the court advising De
echio henceforth to keep on the side
calk.
The Appellate Court gave Devechio;
l victory and declared that California
raffle regulations do not allow man’s
indent right to “use the king’s high
vay.”
The decision asserted that a pedes
rian can tramp down the middle of j
he street, but that vigilence is de- j
nancled from the motorist by law. The j
nan on foot is not required to watch j
‘or oncoming vehicles, said the court.
jy Friedman for the Government dur
ing the Worid War. It recalls, also,
the story of how Friedman, a botani
cal professor at the University of
Wisconsin, became the nation’s great
est cipher expert through the world
wide controversy of Bacon and Shakes
pears.
It was Friedman then in the em
ploy of Colonel D. 1. Fabian, million
aire Chicago hobbyist and the expon
ent of Bacon’s authorship of certain
Shakespeare works, who deciphered
the famous Zimmerman note from
Germany to Mexico, after it had baf
fled the entire War Department. It
was Friedman who came to the rescue
of the Department of Justice and de
coded the famous Chukkerbury letters
disclosing the Go:man plot to start a
revolution in India against England
which resulted in the unmasking of
German Consul F ranz Bopp, at San
Francisco, and numerous German and
Hindoo spies throughout the country.
The translation of tha Zimmerman
note was considered by the State de
partment to have been responsible for
keeping powerful elements in Mexico
from a'c.lng Germany by border raids
and other bigger schemes. It was
known as the “Star Cipher,” one o^
the most difficult in crytography, and
consisted of six mixed alphabets—a
device invented centuries ago by the
French Admiral Bazeries and appar
ently lost since then.
The Hindoo conspiracy letters ap
parently were harmless, but consist
ed of a code word thrown in here and
'there. The code words were selected
| from a book of roe cry which Fried
i man found in a Chicag'o bookstore, and
! he dramatically rushed into Federal
i court with the translation as the trial
; was closing.
Colonel rabian educated, at his own
1 expense, at his esiate at Geneva, Illi
j no is, eighty-six intelligence officer:
I of the army during the war, and the
instruction was given by Friedman am
his wife, a Vassar graduate, who if
also an expert cryptologist. The in
struction, the only cipher training
given the American army during the
war, was invaluable in France am
Friedman, physically unable to enlist
in the army, was given a special com
mission and stationed at Pershing’s
headquarters, where he superintended
the deciphering of the German secret
messages.
Fabian hired Friedman, a plant cul
ture expert, from the University oi
Wisconsin, to take charge of his gar
dens at Geneva, before the war. At
the time the eccentric millionaire was
engaged in the Shakespeare-Bacor
controversy. He hired, a professor of
English from Harvard to go to Eng
land and purchase Shakespeare origi
nals—
The originals of “Venus and Adonis
and of Troilus and Cressida” were
bought at a fabulous price, and, by
photographing the old wood cuts Frie<
man, who became interested in the
work, is alleged to have found in the
famous bi-litteral cipher and to have
read, hidden in the apparently harm
less text, the autobiogranhf of Francis
Lord Bacon, and his own confessior
that he was the son of Queen Eliza
beth.
