It is the beginning of a new year and we pray for peace and good health throughout the coming months. However this Rosh Hashona. is marked with sadness as. well as solemnity because of the massacre in Munich 2 weeks ago and the Soviet decree of August 15. This decree has already resulted in untold human suffering and has sent new waves of fear for Russian Jews who wish to emigrate to Israel. Russias brand of 20th century human bondage is a most * dispicable act and should be condemned by men of good conscience everywhere. � It is unconscionable for any society to place price tags on human freedoms. The new Soviet policy which charges exorbitant exit fees for educated Jews ranging from $4.300 to $37.400 is just another example of how human freedoms. rights and values are reduced in the U.S.S.R.
