This is what distinguishes the society of our great Nation from the U.S.S.R. Mr. President. today marks the seventh anniversary of Anatoly Shcharanskys arrest and has been designated as International Day of Concern for Soviet Jews. I would like to commend Senators LUGAR and BIDEN for setting aside this time to bring attention to this grave plight. We have reached a crisis point in Soviet Jewish emigration. It is now necessary to redouble our efforts in order to reverse this terrible trend. Examples of our increasing involvement are this colloquy and the following letters which I would like to include in todays RECORD on behalf of myself and Senator DECONCINI.
