The Government ordinance prohibiting Turkish Jews to travel in the interior of Turkey was abolished.

Travel restrictions exist in Turkey for Greeks and Armenians. The order against Jews was issued following the Jewish demonstration in Constantinople at the funeral of the Jewish girl, Elsa Niego, who was murdered by the Turkish official, Osman Bey.
