President. the cynical persecution of Soviet Jews by the Soviet Government continues with the announcement of the trial of four Soviet Jews in Riga. This follows the sentencing of nine Soviet Jews to the living death of Siberian prison camps in Leningrad only 5 days ago. Among the four latest victims of Soviet antiSemitism is 23yearold Ruth Aleksandrovich. who has steadfastly sought to emigrate to Israel. The real crime of these defendants is their courageous insistance that Soviet law regarding the treatment of minorities be applied to the 3 million Jews in the Soviet Union. The Soviet Governments systematic eradication of Jewish life exposes all too clearly the true motives of a regime which purports to treat all religions with equal indifference. but the Jewish religion differently and unequally.
