Immediately after the march, the Jewish leaders began a two-day session of the Presidium of the World Conference on Soviet Jewry. Participants include Edgar Bronfman, president of the World Jewish Con- gress; Leon Dulzin, chair- man of the World Zionist Organization; and Greville Janner MP, president of the Board of Deputies of British Jewry. In a related develop- ment, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher pledged her "absolute support" and that of her government to ease the plight of Soviet Jewry. Dulzin, presidium chair- man, said Mrs. Thatcher had spontaneously stated that she and her govern- ment would "do absolutely everything in support of our just cause." Dulzin said that the doors of the Soviet Union were now closed to Jewish emig- ration. Julius Berman, chairman of the Conference of Presidents of Major Ameri- can Jewish Organizations, said the U.S. Administra- tion had told American Jewry that because of the depth of the freeze in U.S.- Soviet relations, Washing- ton currently had little leverage in Moscow over Soviet Jewry and that world Jewry at this time should enlist the support of West- ern Europe and the Third World. Earlier, at the end of its proceedings, the presidium issued a com- munique assuring Soviet Jewry that they were not alone in their struggle and that the Jewish people throughout the world stood "united be- hind them, supported by governments, parlia- ments and significant political, religious, aca- demic and trade union groups." To the government of the Soviet Union it declared: "Reopen the gates for those Jews wishing to join their brethren; release from prison all those Jews whose solo crime is a desire to go to their homeland and enable them to maintain their cul- tural and religious identity; put an end to the oppressive NEW YORK — An ar- cheologist in Israel and a California physicist an- nounced this week that they may have found major Bi- blical artifacts in Israel.
