I was disappointed. therefore. that human rights did not receive much attention at the Reykjavik meeting. Perhaps the case of my friends Naum and Irma Meiman could have been resolved at the meeting. The Meimans are Soviet citizens trapped behind the bars of the Iron Curtain. Inna suffers from a rare type of cancer. After the removal of four tumors from her neck. the Soviet doctors feel they can do no more for her fifth and most recent tumor. All the Meimans want is to be permitted to emigrate to the West where there is experimental treatment available to Irma. I implore the Soviet Union to allow the Meimans to emigrate to Israel.$
