USSIA has for soma time been making frantic ef forts, to let the world know of its good inten tions to dispense with some of its many brutal laws, regulations, disabilities, etc. Not. only has the world been served time and again with announcements of the ."contemplated" -removal of the press censorship, and "projected" schemes for a voice of the people in "recommending' -legislative measures, but we have also been informed that the raskolniks, or dissenters, have been actually permitted to publicly worship God in conformity with"?husages oflhe.jDlL believers, and that the Poles have been granted "the- privilege to acquire landed' propr erty by 'purchase.
