1900 Jewish Soldiers to be Made
Officers.
During the month of June the
Russian Minister of War will raise
no less than 1900 Jewish soldiers
to the rank of officers. These ap-
pointments will be made at the ex-
press recommendation of the many
Russian generals stationed in diff
ferent parts of the country, who
have already sent in their lists of
names of Jewish young men who
are entitled to the rank of officers
by virtue of their education and
the services rendered while on ac-
tive duty.
