Viktor Brailovsky. on the eve of the Madrid Conference. It is an insult to the free world and the cause of human rights that Dr. Brailovsky has been arrested for leading an appeal to Soviet President Brezhnev for the granting of exit visas to over 230 refuseniks. After 8 years of attempting to leave the Soviet Union. Dr. Brailovsky now finds himself not only behind bars. but facing up to 3 years in a labor camp. I urge my colleagues to express their outrage to Soviet leaders and to join me in informing the State Department that this matter should be brought up directly at the Madrid Conference. Since his first visa application in 1972. Viktor Brailovsky has been a leader of the Moscow Seminar of Jewish Scientists. Holding seminars every Sunday in his home for these scientists.
