I wonder where they are on the Verity nomination? I have some ideas about how they could remain silent on Virity. But their silence is incredible to this Senator. absolutely incredible. In 1977 William Verity said. "Soviet trade has to be increased." He opposes barriers. "We have to increase Soviet trade." In 1979. in a Washington Star interview. now rather famous. Mr. Verity said. with reference to Soviet Jewish emigration: "The American Jewish community can never be satisfied in this matter. Their desires will ever be escalating." What an outrageous view to take. But. after all. that was in 1979.
