Four Jewish Prisoners Isolated
in Slordovian Prison
LONDON (.JTA) — Four Jewish
prisoners at Potma in the Mordo-
vian Republic — Boris Penson,
Hillel Shur, Arkady Shpilberg and
Lassal Kaminsky- — were illegally
removed from that camp April 4
and confined to the prison in Sar-
ansk, also in the Mordovian Re-
public, apparently to isolate them,
according to Jewish sources in the
Soviet Union. The four were sen-
tenced to terms in a labor camp,
not a prison.
The sources also reported that
309 Soviet Jews have signed an ap-
peal to Jewish communities and
organizations for help in securing
visas to Israel. Many of them have
lost their jobs because of this and
are under surveillance; others have
been interrogated and warned but
have signed anyway. The signers
are from Moscow, Vilna, Riga,
Tatin, Kharkov. Kiev. Leningrad,
Kishinev, Minsk, Sverdlovsk and
Rostov.
Five young Jewish scientists
in Russia, all officers in the Red
Army Reserve, have been order-
ed to register for active service
although they are not likely to
be called to duty in the imme-
diate future, Jewish sources in
the Soviet Union reported.
All five have applied for exit
visas to go to- Israel, and the ef-
fect of their orders will be to
reduce their chances of leaving
the USSR, the sources said.
The five are Victor Yakhout,
Gavriel Shapiro, Michael Kalatch-
nik, Dan Rozhinski, and Vladimir
Lerner. Rozhinski is'36 years old.
The others are under 30. Yakhout,
who was fired from his teaching
post after applying for a visa, was
summoned before his local em-
ployment committee last week and
ordered to find " f 1" work or
face a prison sentence for para-
sitism. Like several other unem-
ployed Jewish scientists, Yakhout
had been supporting himself by
tutoring students in physics.
