rate greater even than the general
fight from France during the French
revolution. Cities, provincial dis
tricts and the smallest villages are
all represented in the hegira. Dur

people have fed from the country and

week.
Everybody who leaves the country
has to receive a permit from the Rus
sian government This antfquated
procedure has not yet been abolish

st. Petersburg police department is
employing huge special staff to deal
with applications for departure pap

stacles to those wishing to cross the
frontier. The only rule that has to
