Soviet Jewry Emigration Rises to 1981 Peak in 1987
The National Conference on Soviet Jewry says 8,155 Jews were granted exit permits last year, the highest annual total since 1981 and a ninefold rise from 1986, though officials caution this does not prove a lasting shift in Soviet emigration attitudes. In a separate recall, about 30,000 pounds of Citterio boneless prosciutto hams and related salami were being pulled due to possible salmonella contamination, with no illness reported.
