Citizenship, Calls Israel 'Homeland'
in Unique Letter to Supreme Soviet
NEW YORK (JTA)—A young
Jewish engineering student at the
University of Moscow has written
an unusual letter to the Supreme
Soviet assailing anti-Semitic pol-
icies, renouncing his citizenship and
proclaiming- himself an Israeli.
The Washington Post reported
that Yakov Y. Kazakov wrote to
the highest Soviet government
organ, "I do not want to participate
with you in an extermination of the
Jewish nation in the USSR." He
also said, "I do not wish to be a
citizen of a country that conducts
a policy of genocide toward the
Jewish people."
Stating that as a Jew he consid-

declared, "I demand to be freed
from the humiliation of being con-

not, however, been allowed to
emigrate to Israel.
Estabrook w rot e: "Jewish
sources regard Kazakov's letter as
highly unusual because of its forth-
right espousal of a right of self-
determination respecting citizen-
ship. They can recall no previous
case of the exact type." The letter
referred to an earlier one in which
he had announced his renunciation
of citizenship as dating from June
13, 1967.
Schools and chairman of the edu-
cation division of Federation,
N. Brewster Broder will be co-
chairman of the real estate divi-

agree to an "irreducible mini-
mum" — repatriation of a small
number of refugees, generous com-
pensation for the remainder, to
which both Israel and the world
community would contribute, per-
manent resettlement in the Arab
countries of those not repatriated
in Israel, with international par-
ticipation in the financing of such
a settlement.

elect Richard M. Nixon as an ex-

1961 to 1966, having served in
Egypt and Poland before resigning
to enter newspaper work. Later he
served as ambassador to Syria.

Knesset Close to Decision
on Extending TV Service
JERUSALEM—The Israel parlia-

bill which would terminate the
present experimental status of tele-

Israeli television, like radio, ac-
