Expansion of Soviet Edict May Have
Detrimental Effect on Jewish Population

NEW YORK (JTA) — An
edict against "anti-Soviet
agitation and propaganda"
was expanded by Soviet
authorities last month to
include anyone receiving
"financial" or other "mate-
rial" assistance from
"foreign organizations or
persons acting on behalf of
such organizations," accord-
ing to information made
available to the National
Conference on Soviet Jewry
(NCSJ) this week.
Violation of this edict car-
ries a maximum sentence of
10 years in a labor camp and
five years internal exile.
The edict is an expansion of
the Russian Republic's
Criminal Code.
The implications of the
expansion are severe, ac-
cording to Morris Abram,
NCSJ chairman. Because
no specific forms of material
aid are cited, anyone receiv-
ing packages from abroad
could be open to prosecu-
tion, he noted. The refer-
ence to foreign organiza-
tions is equally vague, Ab-
ram, a prominent attorney,
said. They do not have to be
"anti-Soviet," nor must
their "agents" be members.
In Washington last week,
Abram said that the Reagan
Administration is pursuing
the "right course" in the ef-
fort to help the Jews of the
Soviet 'Union.
"It is an issue which I
think the Administration is
concerned about and is
pushing," Abram said after
a dozen national Jewish
leaders met with Secretary
of State George Shultz for
an hour at the State De-
partment last Thursday. "I
wish some of the Western
allies were equally as vigil-
ant on behalf of this inter-
national human right."
Three major issues in
connection with Soviet
Jewry were raised at the
meeting. The first was a
lack of emigration. Abram
noted that there are at least
350,000 Jews seeking to
leave the USSR.
He said the second issue
was to "protest anti-
Semitism which is rampant
still in the Soviet Union."
The Jewish leaders also pro-
tested "the use by the Soviet
Union and its allies of the

United Nations as a
megaphone to broadcast
anti-Semitism throughout
the world," Abram said.
"The Soviet Union is unfor-

Dutch Won't Try Barbie

AMSTERDAM (JTA) —
The Netherlands govern-
ment will not prosecute
Nazi war criminal Klaus
Barbie who was active in
the Gestapo in German
occupied Holland in 1940-
1941, Justice Minister
Korthals Altes told parlia-
ment last week.
Replying to questions,
Altes said there was insuffi-
cient evidence to bring war-
crimes charges against
Barbie. He is known to have
worked for the SS in the
Hague and in Amsterdam
during the latter part of
1940 and the first six
months of 1941, before he
was posted to France where
he became Gestapo chief of
Lyon.
Barbie, known as. the
"Butcher of Lyon," was
turned over to France by

Bolivian authorities early
last year and is awaiting
trial in Lyon for crimes
against . humanity. The
Netherlands State Institute
for War Documentation
says it has investigated his
activities in occupied Hol-
land but found no evidence
of war crimes for which he
could be tried owing to the
statute of limitations.

BONN (JTA) — Brother-
hood Week, which fosters
amicable relations between
Christians and Jews,
opened in West Germany
Tuesday. The principal
ceremonies, broadcast on
national television, were
held in Worms where the

They marked among
other things the 950th an-
niversary of the first
synagogue in Germany, an
edifice constructed in 1034.
Speakers stressed the need
for Germans to outgrow
once and for all the anti-
Semitism that has ebbed
and flowed throughout
German history, culminat-
ing in the Holocaust.

power since Hitler to use
