Conference on Soviet Jewry
has learned. This paperless
state may result in Silnits-
ky's imprisonment, with a
possible two-year penalty,
the agency said.
Silnitsky was released
from labor camp in October
1977, after serving a three-
year term for refusing to
serve in the Soviet army. He
married soon and attempted
to register his residence in
Krasnador, where his wife
lived. Krasnador officials
refused to process their re-
gistration. Silnitsky then
attempted to register in
Kharkov, his birthplace,
but he was turned down
there as well.
After several fruitless
months, Silnitsky and his
wife were allowed to regis-
ter their residence in a
small town near Kharkov
last May 22. A few days la-
ter, their papers now in or-
der, they were able to sub-
mit their emigration appli-
cation to the Kharkov
OVIR.
Their residency regist-
ration was cancelled on
June 27, however, on the
grounds that their
apartment was too small.
Within a week the Sil-
nitskys were told that
they were no longer elig-
ible to emigrate because
they lack registration
papers.
In an earlier case, losif
Begun was sentenced to two
years in internal exile last
month because he was re-
siding in Moscow without a
permit. He, too, had been
denied registration papers
after he completed a one-
year sentence on false
charges of parasitism.

Six weeks ago Begun
went on a hunger strike to
protest his imprisonment.
He has ended his hunger
strike. His wife, Alla
Drugova, was allowed to see
him in a hospital. Begun is
reported to be in poor physi-
cal condition.
Meanwhile, the Soviet
Jewry Research Bureau,
a division of the National
Conference on Soviet
Jewry (NCSJ), has pub-
lished a revised list of
Soviet Jewish prisoners
of conscience, as part of
the organization's "pro-
gram series" of educa-
tional materials concern-
ing Jews in the USSR.
The list includes recent
additions, Ida Nudel, Vla-
dimir Slepak, Anatoly
Shcharansky and Simon
Shnirman.
In Washington, United
Nations Secretary General
Kurt Waldheim has been
asked by 62 members of the
House of Representatives to
speak out against the im-
prisonment of
Shcharansky, Alexander
Ginzburg and other Soviet
citizens who had cam-
paigned for human rights.
Rep. Robert Drinan (D-
Mass.) released a copy of the
letter by the Congressmen
to Waldheim. Copies also
were sent to President Car-
ter, Secretary of State
Cyrus Vance and U.S. Am-
bassador to the United Na-
tions Andrew Young.

Schweiker (R-Pa.) again
asked the Soviet Union to
permit nine-month-old

to Soviet Ambassador
Anatoly Dobrynin re-
minding him that he had

The UOJC, as the only
Orthodox Jewish organiza-
tion submitting testimony,
expressed the community's
objections to the ERA itself
on religious grounds as well
as objections to the concept
of ratification extension and
the necessity for such an
amendment.
David Merzel, the UOJC
director of communal rela-
tions, cited legal opinions
that ERA "would mandate
that separation of the sexes
in such facilities as paroc-
hial schools and houses of
worship be disallowed."
Merzel explained the or-
thodox Jewish community's
strong religious objections
to such a policy.

On July 24, Schweiker re-
ceived petitions signed by
more than 4,000 Americans
calling on the Soviet Union
to issue exit visas to Jessica

the United States for the
child's treatment. These
petitions were sent to Dob-
rynin with the Schweiker
letter.
