TWENTY-SECOND ANNUAL ,BANQUET HONORING tives, they (the relatives) will have no chance of leaving the country." The liberal image which Gor- bachev has acquired in the West is not reflected in improved condi- tions in Soviet labor camps, Shcharansky points out. "All his good words did not affect our reality. In many respects the situ- ation over the past two years be- came even worse. "If there was optimism it was mainly because the American administration's policy is now much more cautious than it was during the time of President Ni- xon's detente." It is not hard to see why the Soviet authorities decided to si- lence Anatoly Shcharansky: with his extraordinary intelligence, dedication, charisma and his complete fluency in English, he was a superbly effective spokes- man on behalf of Soviet Jews and other oppressed minorities seek- ing their freedom. Indeed, his principal offense when he finally appeared in court after 16 months of relentess interrogatiOn by the KGB concerned his contacts with U.S. journalists based in Moscow. Now, nine years later, a figure emerges from the gloom of the Hilton Hotel auditorium in Jerusalem to ask a question. It is one of the correspondents who has flown in specially for the occasion. "David Shipler — The New York Times," he announces. Anatoly Shcharansky leans forward excitedly in his chair and peers through the glare of the television klieglights. "You see," he says delightedly, "there is one of my 'criminal contacts' from - Moscow." "Yes," says Shipler, "and I'm proud of it." Helen Davis writes frequently for us from Israel.
