Speaker. as a participant in the Congressional Fast and Prayer Vigil for Soviet Jewry. I would like to submit the following letters that I have written on behalf of Lev Elbert and his family. Mr. Elbert. like so many other Jews in the Soviet Union. has attempted to emigrate many times but has continually been denied. Presently. Mr. Elbert is confined to a prison cell for refusing to serve in the army. which would have made emigration even more difficult. I hope the Soviet Union will answer our prayers and letters and allow Soviet Jews like Lev Elbert and his family to emigrate to Israel.
