Now the Soviets have decided to allow both Valery and Galina to leave for a better life in Israel. All of us rejoice at this victory of the spirit. We are happy for the Panovs. yet their successcoming after so many months of travailshould strengthen our commitment toward insuring that Jews in the Soviet Union are afforded the freedom to emigrate to other countries if they so desire. Indeed. the victory of the Panovs inspires us to work harder for freedom of emigration throughout the world. The plight of the Panovs mirrored that of many Jews and other people in the Soviet Union and elsewhere who are the victims of oppression and cruel bondage. Let us resolve on this happy occasion to continue our efforts to make human decency and kindness a rule for the treatment of all mankind.
