Tag #142613 - Interview #95027 (Yuri Fiedelgolts)

When I was arrested in 1948, father was seriously appalled in the period of struggle against cosmopolites [14]. He had the relatives abroad and his son was «peoples enemy» [15]. Father abruptly discontinued corresponding with the relatives and even did away with the correspondence and pictures of the relatives so there was no evidence against him. That was the only straw to hang on, so there was no other way to keep in touch with American kin.
