The Soviet Unions denial of the basic guarantees of freedom violates both the letter of our international agreements and the spirit of a humane world order. The Soviet Government seems to have resumed its contemptible program of official antiSemitism. Jewish history. culture. religion and language are suppressedor are subject to malicious distortion in the staterun press. Individual Jews. attempting to keep alive the flame of their heritage. are harassed. arrested and imprisoned. Emigration of Soviet Jews is virtually nonexistent. The numbers alone cannot speak of the personal anguish and official persecution that is the lot of the refuseniks. Those courageous enough to organize and speak out against this atrocious system have been imprisoned.
