Testifying before the sub- committee on Human Rights and International Rights of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, Abrams said that the U.S. "is deeply concerned about the downturn in emigra- tion" of Soviet Jews "which seems brought out of the closet once again." Abrams told the jointly- sponsored hearing that "the issue has been raised with the Soviets at every appro- priate opportunity" in pub- lic forums and in bilateral talks. Secretary of State George Shultz, Abrams said, has placed particular stress on this and other human rights issues during his discussions with the Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko. Abrams said, "In the short run, our goal must be to help as many indi- viduals as we can, to limit discriminatory practices, and to secure freer emig- ration. Over the long term, we have to obtain a Soviet system that is FREE JUST ARRIVED FREE GIFTS GIFTS SUMMER QUILTS !!! !!i SMASHING COLORS REVERSIBLE ALL SIZES SUPER SPECIALS BEACH TOWELS Reg. $4.95 NOW $ 325 each BEACH.

DETROIT LAUNDRY SUPPLY CO. 22121 COOLIDGE, Just South of 9 Mile • Oak Park, Mich. 548-1833 MARIAN RAIMI Martin Luther Magazine Topic NEW YORK — Martin Luther's relations with the Jews are re-examined and reinterpreted in a special edition of "Face to Face," the interreligious quarterly of the Anti-Defamation League of Bnai Brith, is- sued to mark the 500th an- niversary of Luther's birth. In two articles written by Christians and two by Jews, the publication analyzes Luther's controversial philosemitic and anti- Semitic writings and the ef- fect they have had on Chris- tian attitudes toward Jews through the centuries, with particular emphasis on the influence his preaching had upon the Nazi plan to ex- terminate the Jewish people. According to the editorial preface, the questions and issues raised in the publica- tion are part of a dialogue among the Lutheran Coun- cil in the U.S.A., the Graymoor Ecumenical In- stitute and the ADL which has taken place at annual conferences over the last several years at the insti- tute in Garrison, N.Y.

Lynn Singer, president of the Union of Councils for Soviet Jews, recommended that the U.S. take the fol- lowing steps to help reduce the increased harrassment of Soviet Jews: that President Reagan raise the issue of "virulent anti- Semitism" directly with Andropov and in bilateral trade negotiations and other areas of cooperation; that the U.S. Consultate in Kiev be reopened to protect both American tourists and Soviet refuseniks; and that the U.S. Embassy in Mos- cow work with the embas- sies of U.S. allies in setting up informal meetings with Soviet human rights ac- tivists.

In an amicus brief filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit in At- lanta, the AJCommittee says the presence of reli- gious groups on school prop- erty creates an "impermis- sible possibility of adminis- trative entanglement" be- tween government and reli- gion, thereby breaching the principle of church-state separation. Also testifying before the committee was Igor Tufeld, 26, formerly of Moscow, whose sick parents have been denied exit visas to Is- rael repeatedly since 1977 when Tufeld emigrated. Tufeld, who now lives in Jerusalem, flew to Wash- ington to present his tes- timony, and to refute the charges of the "Anti-Zionist Committee of the Soviet Public" that all Soviet Jews who wish to emigrate have already done so. Meanwhile, some 500 persons rallied last week outside the Soviet Consu- late in San Francisco to protest the statements by the Anti-Zionist Commit- tee. Protestors lined the sidewalk and lifted a 90- foot long computer printout sheet with the names of thousands of re- fuseniks, some of whom have been waiting to leave the Soviet Union for more than 15 years.
