The Jewish Labor Com- mittee and the Committee in Support of Solidarity simultaneously released in New York Wednesday a copy of an open letter that Edelman sent to an under- ground Solidarity news- paper. Edelman, a noted physi- cian, member of the Lodz Region Executive Commis- . sion on Solidarity and a delegate to the First Na- tional Congress of Solidar- ity in Gdansk in 1981, was briefly interned by the Jaruzelski regime when martial law was imposed in Poland on Dec. 13, 1981. He wrote the newspaper: "I was invited to join the honorary committee to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the War- saw Ghetto Uprising. I wish to explain why I re- fused. "To celebrate- our an- niversary here, where enslavement and humilia- tion is now the lot of the whole society, where words and gestures have become nothing but lies, would be- tray and spirit of our strug- gle. It would mean par- ticipating in something entirely to the contrary. It would be a cynical act of contempt. "I shall not be a party to this, nor will I accept the participation of others, re- gardless of where they,come from, whatever their cre- dentials. "The true memory of the victims and heroes, of the eternal human striving for truth and freedom, will be preserved in the silence of graves and of hearts — afar from manipulative cere- monies."
