Although several trial dates have been set for the Abranzons their case has never been brought before a judge. They remain imprisoned without trial. isolated from their family and friends. It is my belief that the releasing and granting of exit visas by the Soviet Union to the Abranzons would not only indicate to the world that countrys compliance with the Helsinki accords. but would also affirm its desire to ameliorate relations between our two great nations. This action would be particularly significant. coming at a time of increased tension between the United States and the U.S.S.R. I am deeply concerned over the Soviet Unions disturbing treatment of its Jewish citizens and ask that it abide by its international commitments by relaxing restrictions on immigration policies. I look forward to the day when there is no longer any need for such pleasthe day when families can be reunited in Israel.e
