The DAIA, central representative body of Argentine Jewry, today submitted a memorandum to Soviet Ambassador Grigori Rezanov here, expressing concern over the treatment of Jews in the Soviet Union.
The memorandum requested that the Soviet Government restore to the Jews in the USSR the following rights: 1. The right to a total reconstruction of religious and cultural Jewish life; 2. The right to maintain contact and cultural interchange with world Jewry and with Israel; and 3. The right of every Jew to decide individually the question of whether he wants to emigrate from the Soviet Union to Israel.
