indeed the Allies dealings. have
been affected by Russias policy in

The bill 10 remove the limitations
placed upon Jews will not pass,
however, without considerable op-
position. The opponents say that
the Jews would soon have the peas
ants at their mercy because they
are keener business men.
Particularly do Russian leaders
resent outside interference in set
Ting the Jewish problem. Count
Kokovtsow, exprime minister and
minister OF finance. expressed this
attitude to me in this manner:
