Soviet Jews Arrive in U.S. Eighty-one Soviet Jews, the largest single group of Soviet refugees to arrive in the U.S. in five years, were able to en joy a real Seder with family members this Passover for what may be the first time in their lives. The new immigrants, long- denied the freedom to practice their religion openly, arrived at Kennedy International Air port in N.Y. from Rome on April 8. Also on the flight were 11 Iranian and six Rumanian refugees. (Thirty-three Ira nians additionally arrived at the airport that day aboard flights from Vienna.) The refugees, some of whom have been separated from close relatives for up to 11 years, have all been assisted by HI AS, the Hebrew Im migrant Aid Society. HIAS President, Robert L. Israeloff, joined the friends and relatives greeting the new ar rivals at the airport. Mr. Israeloff said he was “cautiously optimistic” that this could signal the begmning of a new wave of Jewish emi gration from the USSR. There is much optimism that the Soviet government may permit a large number of Jews to leave the country in the near future. Only 914 Jews were allowed to exit the USSR last year. During the first three months of 1987, 704 have already been permitted to leave.
