Letters and packages sent by Americans to Soviet Jews are being returned or are not being delivered. Soviet Jews cannot leave the U.S.S.R. without a written invitation sent through the international mail from an overseas sponsor. Such a document is the first requirement in the laborious emigration process. The delivery of mail is crucial to those Soviet Jews who seek to leave the U.S.S.R. as well as to enhance the will and the spirit of those persons. These Soviet actions along with the callous destruction of the Korean flight 007 should encourage all of us in the United States to lend our support in any way possible.
