failure, according to infor-
mation received by the Na-
tional Conference on Soviet
Jewry.
Mrs. Ioffe, her husband,
Yakov, and their child, first
applied for an exit visa in
May 1976, and were refused
the following January.-She
had suffered from kidney
failure and the most recent
reports from Leningrad
indicated she was about to
start dialysis.
Western doctors, notably
those at the Cleveland
(Ohio) Clinic, felt she would
have been a good candidate
for a kidney transplant.
In a related development,
the Student Struggle for
Soviet Jewry has charged
that "eight years of constant
refusal and harassment by
the Kremlin has led directly
to the 'mental instability
and recent death by starva-
tion of Dr. Irma Poltinnikov
