Mr. President. in addition to the issue of the flouting of congressional authority and stated intent. there are several other issues which need to be addressed at this time concerning loans to the Soviet Union. Restrictive and repressive Soviet emigration practices. the increasing evidence of Soviet persecution of scientists and intellectuals with the attendant denial of the most basic human rights. the Soviet role in the Middle East war and in the Arab oil embargo. and the effect our credit and technology in domestic fields will have on Soviet military strength and the balance of military power in the world all deserve careful attention. Mr. Solzhenitsyn was forced out and as far as I know has not been able to publish any of his works in the Soviet Union except through underground sources.
