The committee also prosecuted
the correlative task of guarding the
rights of Jews, by combating all
manifestations of racial or religious
discrimination. Many complaints of
such discrimination against Jews
were referred to the committee.
Meritorious cases were brought to
the attention of the authorities. In
the course of this activity the COM
mittee had correspondence with al
most every branch Of the Govern

Referring to present conditions in
Russia, the report points out that
the Bo1sheviki have substituted for
the religious discrimination prevail
ing under the Cars, an economic
persecution of all who possessed
property. The report states that
although large number of the
Jews of Russia are the victims of
the Bolsheviki, a great proportion
being engaged in trade and the pro-
fessions and thus coming under the
ban of the Bo1sheviki, yet, because
