We must not now walk away from those who plead for our help. Those who argue that the chances for success are small ignore the fact that a chance exists. I. for one. believe that the Vanik amendment ought to be adopted in toto. with a prohibition of both mostfavorednation treatment and credits and credit guarantees. unless Soviet emigration policy is changed. Some argue that such an amendment would imperil the era of detente which has been carefully pieced together by the President and Secretary Kissinger. Anything which would slow the shaky movement toward detente. the argument goes. must be avoided at all costs.
