The Soviet Government refuses to allow the sale of "matzos." the unleavened bread which is eaten by the Jews on Passover. It is estimated that there are about 3.000.000 Jews yet remaining in Russia. Many would like to emigrate and. of course. Israel is high on the list of preferred countries. Apparently. the Soviet Union does not want to lose the scholars. scientists. and artists and the well educated among its Jewish population. Consequently. few are permitted to emigrate. There have been indications of a rebirth of the Jewish spirit among the younger Jews despite the fact that the religious and other demonstrations are frowned on by the Russian leaders. The capabilities of the Jewish people are well known.
