Local Hebrew theaters are negotiating with representatives of the Soviet embassy in Teheran concerning the possibility of a Russian dramatic troupe coming to Palestine for a series of guest performances at some of the theaters here, it was revealed today. If these negotiations are successful, it is hoped that a Jewish theatrical group from Palestine might visit Russia.

Four travelling libraries containing material in Hebrew and Russian concerning Jewish life and achievements in Palestine, including a series of photographs of Jewish rural and urban activities, are being prepared here for immediate shipment to Russia. A similar exhibit featuring photographs of various aspects of Russian life has just been received here and will shortly be placed on view.
