Schroeter states that. according to these leaders: The only hope of rescinding the tax is ifmassive political and economic pressure can be mounted in the West. These Soviet Jews have no intention of paying the ransom. They feel that if the initial money is paid. there will be no limit to the further demands made on these Jews before they can obtain their visas. I agree with Mr. Schroeter and the Russian Jews he spoke with when they say that there must be economic reprisals against the Soviet Union. We must make it clear to the Russians that they will receive credits and new trade deals only if these new visa restrictions are removed. I will not vote for any new trade concessions for the Soviet Union. and I do not see how any Members of Congress can. in good conscience. do so either. as long as these high fees are imposed on persons wishing to emigrate. If the Russians will not bow to world public opinion. perhaps they will submit to economic pressure. Congress has the power and special constitutional responsibilities in this area.
