The break between the British Government and Soviet Russia will have its effect on the Jewish immigration to Palestine, it was learned here today.

Following the severance of relations between the British Government and the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics all applications for visas of Russian Jewish immigrants to Palestine will be denied. Instructions issued to the immigration authorities indicate that those Russians who obtained visas before the Anglo-Soviet breach occurred will be admitted to the country.
