Russia's Changed Attitude To-
ward American Jews.
ABOLITION OF PASSPORTS
Confirmation of Rumor That Conces-
sion Is Contemplated.
BUSINESS VISITS PERMITTED
Action Looks to Amendment of Ex-
listing Regulations Not Change
in Organic Law.

Confirmation Of the report that in addi-
ton to admitting to Russia American
Jews who go on business. the Russian
government is contemplating the aboli-
ton of the whole system Of passports,
has reached Washington. The advices
to the State Department are unofficial. but
they are accepted as accurate. Already the
ministry has prepared a bill relieving
Jews Of foreign birth who seek to enter
Russia of the necessity Of having their
passports viewed by the Russian diplo-
matte and consular offices. Only the
pendency Of other matters regarded as of
superior Importance has prevented it's
submission to the duma. 1t WILL how
ever soon be brought forward.
Source Of Satisfaction.
The attitude Of the Russian govern
ment has given great satisfaction to the
administration here, as 1t tends to relieve
the increasing tension that has been
steadily growing upon America and Rus
sia. 1t will probably remove the danger
of congressional action which. in the
opinion of the President. probably would
jeopardize the business relations of the
two countries.
Russia's action In the matter is purely
lcIHdl, IOOhILS I'D tIlc dnenQmenL Oh the
existing regulations rather than to
changes in the organic law of the empire.
The freer admission to Russia of Amer
lean Jews on business enterprises is the
first step in the liberalization of these
regulations.
Isolated Cases Noted.
It is true that in few cases heretofore

Washington or some foreign capital where
the applicant happens to be. Even in
such cases, however, 1t has frequently
happened that the Russian diplomat had
to apply to his home office for instruc-

nit
The change in the conditions lies in
the fact that the Russian embassy here
no longer hesitates to wise the pass
ports issued by the State Department
to any American Jew who desires to
visit Russia. If he presents credentials

Jews Of Russian Birth Excepted.
In the case of Jews Of Russian birth
the rule does not apply. for the reason
that the Russian government still main

self and acquire a new nationality with
out the expressed permission of the
Russian government.
The immediate result Of the changed
policy will be free admission to Russia
of many commercial travelling agents
of American manufacturing and in
dustrial concerns. Within the past week
a prominent American Jew, doing
large banking business In California,
was freely accorded a wise to his pass
port at the Russian embassy here upon
the representation OF the congressman
