Immigration Procedure
For Rabbis Is Changed
NEW YORK. (JTA)—A change
in the procedure of non-quota
immigration of rabbis to the
United States was reported by
Samuel A. Telsev, president of ,
HIAS. Formerly all rabbinical
contracts had to be submitted to
the State Department for appro- 1
val, while now such contracts
must be filed directly with the
appropriate American consulates.
For persons residing in Ger-
many, Mr. Telsey advised filing
those contracts with New York
headquarters of HIAS for for-
warding to the loCal American
consuls. In cases of rabbis re-
siding in other countries, he sug-
gested submitting two copies of
the contract to the American
consul and two copies to the New
York office of HIAS.
