PostmasterGeneral Bolger was somewhat successful in bringing to the attention of Soviet officials our Governments concerns about receipt of mail by citizens of the U.S.S.R. We need to continue these efforts. so that Soviet Jews can receive messages of support as well as material assistance from the West. For Soviet Jews. the psychological boost from receipt of mail and packages is enormous. Next. the issue of Jewish emigration must remain a priority matter at every forum where representatives of our Government and the Soviet Union meet. The Reagan administration has a good record in this area. these efforts should be continued. No doubt our official exchanges will be reduced due to the KAL 007 incident.
