December 10 was Human Rights Day. and I would like to insert in the RECORD a statenent and poem about human rights andthe plight of Soviet Jewry for the attention of my colleagues. The statement was written by Lydia Korenfeld. and the poem was written by her daughter. Natasha Korenfeld. The Korenfelds applied for a visa to Israel for the first time In March of 1971. and. since then. they have received four refusals for such a visa. After applying for the visa. both Lydia Korenfeld and her husband lost their jobs. and their eldest daughter. Ludmilla Korenfeld. has been barred from her studies in math. The tragedy of the Korenfelds is typical of that faced by thousands of citizens of the Soviet Union.
