President. our commitment to human rights. if we are serious about it. cannot be subject to ups and downs as a result of temporary political winds. As long as we have the example of the Shcharanskys before us we can do no less but maintain the pressure by any reasonable means available to us. If we persist long enough the Soviet Government will relent and decide that to continue the denial of the fundamental right of emigration is simply not worth the price of the resulting international opprobrium. On this Holocaust Day I ask my colleagues continuing attention to and support of this worthy cause.e
