Soviet Jewry day observed
"We have not forgotten you and we will not forget you."
These words, printed on a poster in the Kansas Union lobby, express the concern of some American Jews for the plight of Soviet Jews.
The poster was part of a display by Hilile, a campus Jewish organization, in observance of National Soviet Jewry Solidarity Day today.
This is the second year of the observance, Ellen Kort, Hillel adviser, said yesterday.
She said it was part of a national effort to make people aware of the conditions of Jews in the Soviet Union and their efforts to emigrate.
Soviet officials have started a crackdown on how many Jews are killed.
Two years ago about 5,000 Jews were allowed to leave the Soviet Union in January. Kort said, but this year, in the meantime, he reported, only 280 were allowed to leave.
Soviet Jews who apply for a visa must have a blood relative living in Israel. However, Kort said, this was no longer guaranteed that a visa would be granted.
She said the refusenski, people denied visas, were often blacklisted, which could mean loss of a job, demotion or some other form of harassment.
Hillel participates in a continuous
letter-writing campaign to Soviet and U.S. officials, asking that the Jews who want to leave be allowed to, she said.
She said letters also were written to refusenicks to help keep their hopes
