A delegation of women from committees of support for Soviet Jews demonstrated Wednesday at the European Security Conference. The women, representatives of committees from 12 European countries, are campaigning for the right for Soviet Jews to emigrate, the liberation of political prisoners, the respect of cultural rights, and the end of anti-Semitic activity in the Soviet Union. The women’s demonstration was declared to be a part of the International Women’s Year.
