Out of over 2,500 requests for exit visas to proceed to Israel pending since May, the Czechoslovakian authorities has authorized only 22 visas for elderly Jews who have relatives in Israel, the French radio reported today.

The Jewish community in Prague has been informed that it is useless to submit requests for emigration permits in such great numbers because they will not be granted.
