Vjacheslav lost his position as an engineer. and now works in a lowpaying nonprofessional capacity. 71059 O8711 (Pt. 17) Mr. President. as we in the West enjoy religious and political freedom. we must not forget the ongoing struggle of those who are categorically denied the basic right to live where they choose. While the number of Jewish refuseniks rises. we must also continue to raise our voices for those whose pleas repeatedly fall on unsympathetic ears. And today. I call upon the Soviet Government to hear the pleas of the Karlin and Manevich families. and to grant their exit visas promptly.*
