Yelena Bonner, wife of Soviet dissident Andrei Sakharov, arrives
last week for medical treatment.

Washington (JTA) — A
Superior Court judge last week
found 21 rabbis guilty of taking
part in illegal demonstrations
last summer in front of the
Soviet Embassy. Each defendant
was given a suspended 15-day
jail term, six months unsuper-
vised probation and a $50 fine.
The rabbis had protested the
treatment of Jews in the Soviet
Union. They were arrested vio-
lating a law banning such
demonstrations within 500 feet
of an embassy. The case was the
first to be tried after more than
150 arrests in seven demonstra-
tions at the Soviet Embassy
from May to November.
Previously, a motion for dis-
missal on grounds of inconsis-
tency had been denied. The de-
fendants argued that none of the
more than 2,000 demonstrators
in similar actions in front of the
South African embassy had been
arrested.
Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly
ruled the demonstration by the
rabbis was illegal and imposed
the sentences. More than 50
rabbis and around 100 other
demonstrators from all parts of
the United States have been ar-
rested for such demonstrations
since May. Lawyers for the de-
fendants contended that U.S.
Attorney Joseph diGenova has
prosecuted demonstrators at the
Soviet Embassy but dropped
similar charges against demon-
strators at the South African
Embassy.
The demonstrations have been
arranged by the Washington
Board of Rabbis and the Rabbin-

ical Assembly, the association of
Conservative rabbis. The most
recent arrests took place on
Nov. 17.
Meanwhile, the Reagan Ad-
ministration charged last week
that the Soviet Union and its
East European allies continue to
have a "seriously flawed" record
in human rights.
This assessment was made by
the State Department as it re-
leased the 19th semi-annual re-
port on compliance with the
Helsinki Final Act. The report,
which covers the period April 1
to Oct. 1, 1985, was submitted
to Sen. Alfonse D'Amato (R-
NY), chairman of the Commis-
sion on Security and Coopera-
tion in Europe.
"Although the record of com-
pliance varies among the East-
ern states during the six-month
period covered by the report,
overall performance remained
seriously flawed in he human
rights and humanitarian area,"
State Department deputy
spokesman Charles Redman
said.
For Jews, the main area of
concern continues to be the
Soviet Union where persecution
by Soviet authorities continues
and only 457 Jews were allowed
to emigrate from April 1 to Aug.
31.
"Individual Jewish refusniks
have responded in various ways
to official intransigence on
emigration," the report noted.
"Some in resignation have cur-
rently stopped applying to leave,
while others apply as frequently
as possible — once every six
months."
