I fully support President Carters efforts to move. postpone. cancel or boycott the Olympics if Soviet troops are not pulled from Afghanistan within 1 month. And if the Olympics are able to proceed in the Soviet Union. I ask my colleagues to rally against the purging of Jews who have applied to emigrate as well as the socalled "cleansing of other undesirables" from Moscow during these games. I intend to monitor closely and press for the continued emigration of Soviet Jews and other minorities. What is the fate of Anatoly Shcharansky? Shall he be regarded as a gauge of Soviet contempt for human life. liberty. and justice?
