Dobriansky writes: Basic human rights are universal. and no current myth of noninterference in internal affairs can becloud this truth for free men. An empire such as the U.S.S.R.. built and maintained on conquests and foreign domination. cannot logically justify the national. noninterference principle. With our technology. knowhow and capital flowing to this empire. we have every right and duty to move forward for (1) a strict Congressional accounting of acrosstheboard emigration from the U.S.S.R. (2) an equally strict accounting of deals made by our businessmen who are admittedly confused by present rules in U.S.-U.S.S.R. trade (3) in the spirit of Senator Jacksons appeal to Brezhnev on Sept. 10. 1974. the release of Valentyn Moroz (4) Congressional hearings on the resurrection of the Ukrainian Orthodox and Catholic Churches genocided by Stalin and (5) a short term Select Committee on the Captive Nations to crystallize for our citizenry a reality that no amount of diplomacy can conceal. I support the abovestated goals and pledge to my UkrainianAmerican friends to do everything I can to see they are achieved.
