Shch Aransky and other jewish activists provided the data the names and for Mer work places of jews refused exit visas on grounds that they possessed state secrets As a result of their jobs. In fact Shch Aransky was named in the Arti Cle As were others. There was nothing secret about any of it All information i collected in the soviet Union was for publication in the times. It had occurred to me after two years in Moscow that jews from a strikingly wide Range of vocations were being denied exit on secrecy grounds from football players to scientists from waiters to Engi neers.
