Promise Extension of Rights to
Jews.

Russian Journals assert with GER
tain degree of assurance that the Rus
sian Government will introduce in the
fall session of the Duma several bills
for the extension of Jewish rights
One of these extensions will be the
legalization of the circular permitting
Jews to reside outside the Pale, the
right to buy immovable property and
to be members of joint stock COM
panies. The last point will be grant
ed especially at the request of Eng
land and France. Professor Mil
yukon declared that the Progressive
bloc also has plans for the extension
of Jewish rights, especially along the
lines of allowing them to obtain a
higher education without any restric-
ton. Deputy Freedman, in an article
in Evreyskaya Zhizn, is rather pessi-
mistic regarding the outlook and ex-
presses his doubts whether the plans
of the bloc will be realized.
The Russian Upper House has re-
jected the clause in the Duma bill
abolishing all educational restrictions
for Jews in the Agricultural Institute.
The clause as passed by the Duma was
one of the few concessions of the
Progressive block to the Jews.

Russian Jews in Italy in Danger.

ANA0SAAAA JN"0 AAA ASoAy Ill Do41SSA.
It has recently become known that
the Italian Government has come to
an agreement with the Russian Gov
eminent, whereby all who desert from
the army or fail to appear at military
CONSUMPTION and escape to Italy should
be deported by the Italian authorities.
Since there are a number of Russian
Jewish political offenders in Italy, the
report of this agreement caused the
Jews there great deal Of concern. A
memorandum was prepared and sent
out to all Senators and Deputies, in
which Russia's treatment of it's po1iti-
cal offenders is described in detail, and
also in which the loyalty of the alien
Jews to Italy is emphasized. The
memorandum made very favorable
impression in the higher circles of
Italian society, and the Jews hope
that they will not be molested as a
result.

Patriotism has had many interpreta-

the western continent. Men have died for
their king and have been called patriots

instances which history reeords-in apply

are no degenerate sons of the sires whose
