Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Gennany President Ronald Reagan, President of the United States Dear Sirs.: We, Soviet members of the Divided Families Group, appeal to you for your support and understanding. For if peace and goodwill among nations rests on mutual respect for the rights of each other's citizens, and especially their families, then our plight is surely more than regrettable. Our situation: as Soviet citizens married to citizens of the USA, France and West Germany, we have been consistently denied the right to join our spouses, and in some cases children, now resident in your countries. Some of us have suffered such enforced separation for up to five years now. In no case have the Soviet authorities any valid reason for withholding our exit visas, a flagrant violation of the Final Act of the Helsinki Accords. Moreover, the personal agony of separation from our loved ones is aggravated by the extremely precarious position imposed upon us as "refuseniks" in a largely unsympathetic society. Repeated applications to the -Soviet authorities have served only to frustrate us.still further. We are desparate. On April 2, 1982, we began a ten day hunger strike ending today. If no relief is forthcoming, we shall, on May 10, 1982, strike again in earnest until we are released from such cruel and unusual punishment -- either to join our families, or by death. We have no other choice. · - We beg you, leaders -of the countries we hope to raise our families in, to do all you can to end this inhuman, unmotivated and totally unnecessary tragedy.

    Unrestricted Immigration and the Foreign Dominance of United States Nobel Prize Winners in Science: Irrefutable Data and Exemplary Family Narratives—Backup Data and Information Andrew A. Beveridge, Queens and Graduate Center CUNY and Social Explorer, Inc. Lynn Caporale, Strategic Scientific Advisor and Author The following slides were presented at the recent meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. This project and paper is an outgrowth of that session, and will combine qualitative data on Nobel Prize Winners family histories along with analyses of the pattern of Nobel Winners. The first set of slides show some of the patterns so far found, and will be augmented for the formal paper. The second set of slides shows some examples of the Nobel families. The authors a developing a systematic data base of Nobel Winners (mainly US), their careers and their family histories. This turned out to be much more challenging than expected, since many winners do not emphasize their family origins in their own biographies or autobiographies or other commentary. Dr. Caporale has reached out to some laureates or their families to elicit that information. We plan to systematically compare the laureates to the population in the US at large, including immigrants and non‐immigrants at various periods. Outline of Presentation • A preliminary examination of the 609 Nobel Prize Winners, 291 of whom were at an American Institution when they received the Nobel in physics, chemistry or physiology and medicine • Will look at patterns of

Oral history is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well- informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Arthur Kornberg, M.D., dated June 18, 1997. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes.

Introduction When I was approached by the editors of Physics in Perspecti6e to prepare an article on New York City for The Physical Tourist section, I was happy to do so. I have been a New Yorker all my life, except for short-term stays elsewhere on sabbatical leaves and other visits. My professional life developed in New York, and I married and raised my family in New York and its environs. Accordingly, writing such an article seemed a natural thing to do. About halfway through its preparation, however, the attack on the World Trade Center took place.
