Nevertheless the journal has been ruthlessly suppressed by the Soviet authorities. Material intended for publication has been confiscated. All editors of the journal. except Brailovsky. have been permitted to emigrate to Israel. Brailovsky waits in prison.

Attached is a piece from the Los Angeles Times of December 5. 1980. which testifies to the courage of Viktor Brailovsky: LET My HUSSAND Go (By Irina Brailovsky) Moscow.-On Nov. 13 my husband. Viktor Brailovsky. was arrested on a charge of "defamation of the Soviet state and public order." Today he is confined in Moscows Butyrskaya Prison. notorious for its role in the political purge of the 1930s and the postwar period.
