Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Persecution of the Jews in Russia: With Appendix Containing a Summary of Special and Restrictive Laws
Hard though the yoke was, the burden has been made absolutely unbearable by enactments brought into existence some eight years ago, and put into rigorous operation during the last three or four years; they were even, it was feared, about to be extended and intensified during the present year. The practical effect of even their present application can be best summed up in the one crushing unwritten law, No Russian Jew shall earn a living.

Excerpt from The Persecution of the Jews in Russia: With Appendix Containing a Summary of Special and Restrictive Laws
"All Jews born in England shall be regarded as aliens. No Jews shall dwell in any part of the United Kingdom but the Principality of Wales, and the counties of Cheshire, Shropshire, Hereford and Monmouth, unless they be full graduates of some University, members of the learned professions, skilled artisans certificated by the Technical Institute, or have been members of a Chamber of Commerce for five years, paying 100 per annum for that privilege. No Jew shall hold any government or municipal office. No Jew shall buy or rent landed property. All Jews shall pay special taxes in connection with religious functions. No synagogue may be opened without the Queens signed permit, and no public prayers may be held in any other place than a synagogue. Married Jews who become converted to the Established Church of England, are ipso facto divorced on conversion, but the wife, if she remain a Jewess, may not marry again. All Jews attaining the age of 20 years, shall serve five years in the active army, and thirteen years in the reserve, but no Jew may become an officer, or even an officer's servant. No Jew shall serve in the navy."
A condition of things such as is suggested by the above set of rules is so utterly impossible in free England, that they may easily raise a smile. Yet they represent in a manner calculated to bring the subject home to English readers, the normal situation of the Jews of Russia, under which they have been obliged to live for much more than a century.
