Mr. Speaker. I rise to join with my. many colleagues from constituencies all across this Nation to protest with all the vigor at my command the demand of the Soviet Union for a ransom for each Jewish person with developed skills who wish to emigrate to Israel. On September 19. 1972. the Supreme Soviet. the highest legislative body in the Soviet Union. meets to ratify a schedule -of ransom payments of from $5.000 to $37.000 for persons in specified categories who wish to go to Israel. I would like to point out to the Soviet Government that I shall look with a jaundiced eye upon a liberalization of trade with � th" Soviet Union while the policy is continued.
