Omalia Organizations To Elect Delegate To American Jewish Congress
Israel Zangwill, Noted Playwright, Comes To Address Jewish Congress Session
JEWS MAY SHARE LAND GRANTS New York. (J. T. A-) Jews may now share share in the distribution of land in Russia, aocording to advices received by the Idgescom here. The regulations of 1920 regarding the parcelling of the agricultural lands provided that only those citizens who were entitled to own land before 1917 were entitled to share in its redistribution, as no Jews were permitted to own land under the Czar. This regulation has now been done away with by the Soviet government and Jews may share with others in the land grants.
