As a result, when William& #39;s father Boris passed away in 1923, William didn& #39;t attend the funeral.
With all the attention and fame, William wanted to keep a low profile.
That& #39;s why he worked as a clerk and other small jobs. But still, he used to get recognized by people.
The newspapers mocked his intelligence saying that he lost capabilities that he had in childhood.
William became a socialist, during world war I, he was an objector and protested in Boston against the war.
