We may soon begin hearing of mass army inductions and arrests. to get these "threats" to Russian security and the safety of our President out of the way. What is worse. the Russians may now feel they can act with impugnity in increasing the tempo of their harassment of Jewish activists. President Nixon. in the commencement address at Annapolis. said that the problem of Jewish emigration from the Soviet Union was an internal Russian problem. and it was not for the United States to tell another nation how to handle its internal affairs. With such an attitude on the part of the highest elected official of the United States. and perhaps the one man in our entire Government who has the greatest personal stake in detente. it would be no surprise to me if the Russians felt free to engage in a mass roundup of Jewish activists and then cut down even further on the number of exit visas they so generously grant.
