This af¬fects the status of the Pell Grant,FISL, College work/study, andseveral smaller programsThe amendment was passed inthe House of Representatives lastWednesday night by a vote of303-95. Hyde Park RepresentativeHarold Washington (D., ID votedagainst the measure. Rep. Paul(I)., ID said it would lead to"chaos on our campuses.” Rep.Gerald Solomon (R., NY), whosponsored the bill argued thatthose who receive federal benefitsshould be willing to obey the law.Director of Selective ServiceThomas Turnage told the HouseJudiciary Committee that he sees“no reason why persons shouldbenefit from the government whenthey are not willing to register.”The law now requires every manto register on his 18th birthday.The maximum penalty for failingto register is five years in prisonand a $10,000 fine.Turnage said 93 percent of themen born between 1960 and 1963have registered. Only 87 percent,however, of the men born in 1964had registered as of July 14. Thenames of 225 "probable violators”have been turned over to the Jus¬tice Department for investigationand prosecution.The Chicago Tribune reportedthat Selective Service will matchits registrant files with Social Se¬curity Administration’s lists ofthose born in the years in question.A spokesman for the Social Securi¬ty Administration reported thatunless several laws were changedSocial Security numbers were strictly confidential and would notbe “simply handed over to Selec¬tive Service.”Mike Bius, Administrative Assis¬tant for Senator Charles Percy < R.,ID feared that pressure, perhapsmonetary pressure, would be ap¬plied to schools that were uncoo¬perative in providing the Social Se¬curity numbers of studentsreceiving federal financial aid.The Senate passed the measureseveral weeks ago.Eleanor Borus, associate direc¬tor of College aid, said that her of¬fice does not use Social Securitynumbers, in fact “all we have arethe 6 digit student informationnumbers.” She added however,that “all loans are processed by afederal office in California and allSelective Service would have to dois get their (computer) tapes.”Ron Smith, administrative assis¬tant for Rep. Elwood Hillis (R.,IN), ranking Republican on theHouse Armed Services Committeesaid Social Security numberswould not be necessary, that thebill “left it to the institution to actas policeman.” According to Smith“In order to receive funds youwould have to sign a statement ofcompliance. To verify this state¬ment, institutions would have toprovide a list of students who havefiled such a form, to then be sub¬mitted to Selective Service.”American universities have beenasked once before to act as law en¬forcers. After the Soviet Unionlaunched Sputnik in the late 1950s,a program called the National De¬fense Student Loan (now called theNational Direct Student Loan) wasenacted to encourage high schoolstudents to go on to higher educa¬tion. To receive it, the institutionhad to ask students to sign loyaltyoaths. At the urging of the student By Jesse HalvorsenHerman L.

The Uni¬versity re-entered the programwhen the rules were changedAt this time, it is not clear whatstudent reaction, or the Universi¬ty’s official reaction, will be.Borus, in a personal comment,summed up many administrator sfeelings by stating “we as educa¬tors feel this action is discrimina¬tory, not only towards men. butsimply towards those who cannotafford the cost of higher educationwithout some form of assistance.”At present, no action is plannedagainst those who have not regis¬tered for the draft, but receive nofinancial aidThe amendment will take effectAug. 1.By Jeffrey TaylorDean-designate of the CollegeDonald N.

In¬volved in the projected 57th Street construc¬tion are plots where about 80 individualstoil. These lots are rarely blessed. Muchland in Chicago appears abandoned andsuitable for tillage. But too much of what isidle contains foreign material (sometimespoisonous), is not proximate to water, andmay be subject to pilferage.The University’s plan for townhouses forhotshot academics at 57th and Stony is a bitinexplicable. Your PhD of 24, pushing aheadsimultaneously on Books two and three, willhave to contend there with descending buspassengers, their hand-held radios at theready, while to the rear heavy Illinois Cen¬tral freights shake the ground. This is notthe quiet elegance of academe.Drive a mile or two west on 55th, or 47th,and you encounter increasingly desolateareas of once-industrial south Chicago. Pub¬lic gardens are a noble wrestling with suchgallopping urban squalor. They exist in fewparts of the city. If the 57th Street construc¬tion goes ahead, they will disappear in HvdePark as well.R. W. ReichardIsraeli invasion,American criticismTo the editor :In last Friday's issue of the Maroon. Eli¬zabeth Lichtenstein and Ben Frankel ar¬gued that the Israeli invasion of Lebanonshould be viewed as fortuitous for the US aswell as for Israel. They make some legiti¬mate complaints regarding some Ameri¬cans' criticism of the invasion, particularlyin regard to vocabulary, but as a whole theirargument is weak. Like a lawyer’s plea formistrial, they ignore the central issue —why Americans are questioning the Israelioffensive — and concentrate on the techni¬cal flaws appearing in the case. The point is that most Americans do notwant to hear that an ally is involved in amajor military offensive in a part of theworld that already contributes too much toour international worries. They don’t enjoyhearing from the International Red Crossthat Israel has left hundreds of thousands ofLebanese civilians homeless. And Ameri¬cans are angered by Israel’s lack of regardfor US diplomatic efforts toward resolutionof the conflict.The Israelis have demonstrated that theUS has little effect on their actions, i.e. welack the necessary political leverage for dip¬lomatic bargaining. How is an apparentlyimpotent US diplomatic corps supposed totake advantage of the alleged "new oppor¬tunities” that the Israeli invasion has yield-ed° Are there really so many advantages?Lichtenstein and Frankel’s views are themost optimistic I’ve read.Finally, have the Israelis really destroyedthe PLO "infrastructure” or have they top¬pled Arafat only to make room for Habashor Hawatmeh to move into leadership with amore extreme brand of terrorism to follow?We cannot answer this question now — itonly leads to another, more frustratingquestion ...

Herman Sinaiko, whose enthusiastic style of teaching isknown to many students, brings much of the same commitment and concern forstudents that his predecessor possessed. With some of the authority of the deanof students office reallocated to the dean of the College office however, it is diffi¬cult to say whether he can be as effective in solving students’ problems as LornaStraus was.As a founder of the popular Human Being and Citizen sequences and of theNew Collegiate Division, Sinaiko has shown genuine interest in issues that affectstudents. His experience as an advisor to students in the General Studies in theHumanities program is a valuable asset, particularly since advising will be hisprimary responsibility as dean of students. Furthermore, since he was appoint¬ed by Donald Levine, dean-designate of the College, we can expect him to have agood working relationship with the dean of the College.We are glad that Levine and Sinaiko want to further involve the Dean of Stu¬dents office in student life. While we are not sure in what ways this will beachieved, we welcome any efforts the administration can make to improve thequality of life here. Sinaiko’s appointment, we believe, is a step in the right di¬rection.New Associate Dean-designate of the College Richard Taub will now handlemany of the problems previously handled by the dean of students. We suspectthat this splitting up of the dean of students authority will have mixed results. Itmay reduce some of the administrative burden that besets the Dean of Studentsoffice. Furthermore, the office of College aid will now report directly to the Deanof the College office, which ultimately controls most of the College budget. How¬ever, students will have to go to yet another administrator for their problemswith financial aid, one of the major student concerns.While we welcome Sinaiko’s appointment as dean of students, we must aski why students were not more involved in the selecting process. Certainly since, the dean of students serves under the dean of the College it is essential that the| dean of the College have the final decision. However, the ultimate purpose of thei dean of students is to solve the many and varied problems that students have. Inthe words of Lorna Straus, shouldn’t the dean of students really be a dean fori students?Judging from their pasts, the members of the new College administrationhave much potential for improving the quality of the curriculum and of studentI life. Whether they live up to their potential, we can only speculate.The Chicago MaroonDarrell WuDunnEditorJeffrey TaylorAssociate EditorMarc KramerPhotography Nadine McGannGrey City Journal EditorBecky WoloshinChicago Literary Review EditorWally DabrowskiProduction Manager Aarne EliasOperations ManagerStephen BrittBusiness ManagerJay McKenzieAdvertising ManagerStaff: Mark Bauer, John Collins, Kahane Corn, Teri Drager, Jesse Hilvorsen,Keith Horvath, Robert Kahng, Linda Lee, Lynn Travers, Mauri:.

Along withLevine and others, he started the LiberalArts I sequence which existed during the1960s. He is also the student advisor on thecommittee on General Studies in the Hu¬manities.Receiving his BA from the University in1947, Sinaiko attended the College duringthe Hutchins era.

NOONTHE MAROON RETURNSIN THE FALLSEPTEMBER 24,1982ORIENTATION WEEK ISSUE...MORE DETAILS NEXT WEEK/ \ / \The Chicago Maroon—Friday, July 30, 1982—3ViewpointsReagan’s certification:A step backwards for human rights in El SalvadorBy John R. ConlonTwice a year, the Reagan Administration is required bylaw to certify that the human rights situation is improvingin El Salvador, as a condition for continued aid to thatcountry. There is no provision in the law, however, for as¬sessing the accuracy of his certification.Last Tuesday, July 27, President Reagan delivered hiscertification to Congress. The certification hinged criticallyon the only development which could possibly be made toseem like an improvement in El Salvador — the Mar. 28elections.By all accounts, the level of political violence has in¬creased in El Salvador. According to the US Embassy,there have been almost 300 political killings per month (orover 3000 per year) so far this year (Chicago Tribune7/28/82 >. Others put the figure higher. According to theAmerican Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), for example, Sal¬vadoran security forces have killed over 2800 people so farthis year in a campaign of “systematic political murder.’’(Chicago Sun Times, 7/21/82)The land reform program is also under attack. Phase II,the key phase of the three phase program, has been can¬celled by the National Assembly, and Phase III has been“postponed.” The remaining phase. Phase I, is also indanger of falling apart, under the hostile eye of the NationalAssembly, according to ex-junta member Jose NapoleonDuarte ( New York Times. 6/7/82).Despite all this, the Reagan Administration has certifiedto Congress that human rights have improved in El Salva¬dor. How could the Administration make such a certifica¬tion?An indication of the type of evidence the Administrationmight have used is provided by an American Civil LibertiesUnion study. Documents obtained by the ACLU under theFreedom of Information Act showed that, for last winter'scertification, no research or analysis was done by any USintelligence agency. Instead, the Reagan Administrationrelied only on statements by Salvadorann Government offi¬cials and press accounts to justify its certification of humanrights improvement in El Salvador. (Sun Times. 7/9/82)The main piece of evidence that the Reagan Administra¬tion is using this time to justify certification is the electionsthis past Mar. 28. “The most important development in ElSalvador in recent months has been the initiation of a demo¬cratic political process based on free elections.” the certifi¬cation report says.Were these elections, infact, “the initiation of a demo¬cratic political process” as the report says? Were they freeand democratic? The first thing that should make us suspicious about theseelections is the sort of people who got elected. Most of thevictors were extreme rightists. Why should this be so? Arethe Salvadoran people also extreme rightists?The second thing that should make us suspicious aboutthese elections is the fact that the rightist governmentwhich was overthrown by the “moderate” junta in October1979 was itself, theoretically, democratically elected. In¬fact, elections have been extremely common throughout ElSalvador’s history. This does not mean, however, that ElSalvadoran traineesSalvador has ever been a domestic country.There are at least two ways of holding an election in LatinAmerica without having to worry about the other side win¬ning. One way should be familiar to us as citizens of Chi¬cago: miscounting ballots, stuffing ballot boxes, havingdead people vote — in general, using electoral fraud. Thereis evidence that a certain amount of this was taking placeduring the Mar. 28 elections, but this was not necessarilythe crucial factor.Perhaps the more reliable method of controlling electionsis by deciding who will be allowed to run, by intimidatingthe opposition, and by restricting the opposition’s access tothe electorate. In the 1972 elections in El Salvador, for ex¬ample, the Christian Democrats had very little access tothe rural population (Alastair White El Salvador p. 208)Even so, they are generally considered to have won thoseelections. In that case, the first method of election controlwas resorted to.Even if an opposition candidate happens to win, he canusually be overthrown in a military coup d’ etat. This is what happened to Salvador Allende in Chile in 1973, and tothe last two presidents elect in Bolivia. In Guatemala, in1963 a conservative president was overthrown because hewas planning to allow a popular liberal, Juan Jose Arevalo,to run in the fall, 1963 elections. And, coming back to ElSalvador, Arturo Araujo, perhaps the closest thing to ademocratically elected president in the history of El Sal¬vador, was overthrown in December 1931, after less thantwo years in office.Even if a president is allowed to serve his term, thingscan be controlled. In Guatemala in 1966. for example, amoderate, Julio Cesar Mendez Montenegro, was allowed tokeep the presidency, but only if the army were allowed toactually run the country. This was also the case with Napo¬leon Duarte, until the March elections.The point Lam trying to make is that, even if a leftistparty had decided to run in the March elections and won,they could have expected very little change to have comeover El Salvador. As it was, to run in those elections wouldhave been suicide. The majority of the country is still con¬trolled, militarily, by the Salvadoran security forces, whoseindiscriminate brutality is one of the issues in the civil war.For the leftists to campaign in those areas would only meanmartyring themselves and all of their political supportersin order to call one of President Reagan’s propagandabluffs.The reason why the turnout in the Mar. 28 elections wasas high as it was is almost certainly because voting in therural, and to a lesser extent the urban areas of Latin Ameri¬ca is primarily a way to stay on good terms with those inpower, rather than a way to choose one’s representatives.There is evidence of official voter intimidation during theMar. 28 elections which is much more serious than the evi¬dence of electoral fraud. (See, for example the 4/30/82 and5/4/82 issues of the Maroon.)The elections in El Salvador are not a “tangible sign ofprogress” for democracy in that country, but rather, mere¬ly a propaganda stunt staged by the Reagan Administra¬tion. They were held, not to bring peace to El Salvador, butto convince people in the United States to accept the Rea¬gan Administration’s increasing military interventionthere.In the end, I suppose, the issue is not whether anybodyactually believes Reagan’s certification, but whether any¬one is willing to do anything about it. In the weeks andmonths to come. Congress will be discussing the future ofmilitary aid to El Salvador. President Reagan’s certifica¬tion should be rejected by Congress, and military interven¬tion brought to an end.Palestinians have the right to a permanent homelandBy Gail BolingWhen looking at the Palestine-Israel conflict it is impor¬tant to remember that we are Westerners who “naturally”tend to side with those who are most like us. The Israelisare like us in two ways. They come mainly from the West¬ern world and they are settlers, moving onto somebodyelse’s land (remember the Native Americans?). Israel’slong emotional appeal to Americans (especially those whofelt guilty for closing their eyes to Nazi slaughter) hasmeant that we have grown up feeling sympathetic to “theonly democracy in the Middle East.” The problem is it isnot a democracy. Furthermore, its founding was based onthe denial of another nation's right to exist. Sadly, thesefacts lead to the conclusion that it is up to America to deter¬mine whether justice shall finally be done to the Palestinianpeople.The starting premise of my argument is that the Palestin¬ians are a nation with the right of self-determination whowere driven off their land by an invading settler force.Whereas the twentieth century Jews declared themselves anation without a land, the Palestinians have been an Arabnation peaceably living in Palestine since the seventh cen¬tury. Some families there trace their geneologies as farback as the Crusaders. Palestine as a geographical territo¬ry has been recognized as far back as Biblical times. Pales¬tine, however, has been checked in its national growth bythe successive string of occupations which have plagued theregion, most recently by the Ottoman Turks, the British,and now the Israelis. If Israel has “the right to exist,” and Ibelieve every nation has the right to a homeland, how muchmore does Palestine have the right to exist. Yet this point isso often ignored.Israel, then, is the first occupier of Palestine which hassystematically attempted to drive the native populationcompletely off their lands. The historical record reveals arelentless attempt by Zionists to deny the very existence ofthe Palestinian nation, a people who in turn had neverharmed them. A common name for this tactic is “geno¬cide” — you must face the facts and then decide for your¬self if the term is accurate.A little history then. As early as the 1890s Zionists underthe influence of Theodor Herzl’s version of Zionism beganarriving in Turkish-occupied Palestine. Meanwhile Europe¬an Zionists at home, many of whom were very influential,attempted to secure Western approval for a Jewish state tobe located somewhere on Palestinian lands. In 1916 France4—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, July 30, 1982 and Britain reached a secret agreement, the Svkes-Picotagreement, to divide the Middle East between themselveswhen World War I ended. By 1917 the Zionists had con¬vinced the British to designate Palestine as the future “ho¬meland for the Jews.” This British policy, stated in the Bal¬four Declaration, also emphasizes that “nothing shall bedone which may prejudice the civil and religious rights ofexisting non-Jewish communities in Palestine.” However,at that time only four percent of the population of Palestinewas Jewish — obviously none of the 96 percent majority hadbeen consulted about the British decision. There was mas¬sive protest by the Arabs. Nevertheless ;n 1922 the BalfourDeclaration was written into the League of Nations man¬date and Jewish immigration to Palestine became “offi¬cial.”Consider the effect of Zionist immigration on the popula¬tion of peasant farmers and shepherds, who had main¬tained their simple lifestyle for centuries. The Westernersbrought with them education, technology, literacy, lega¬lism. and the financial support of international Jewry'fe.g.the Jewish National Fund, and the Jewish Agency, foundedin 1928). The Zionists began buying land from absenteelandlords, who did not care about the sudden loss of liveli¬hood to the Palestinian peasants. Poor farmers in debt wereanother good target for land purchases. The Palestiniansreacted in anger to the apparent willingness of the Britishto let the Zionists take over their land, and there were pro¬tests and riots. Yet kibbutzim were regularly founded onthe “socialist” principle oT “Jews only.” Zionists createdslogans like “A land without a people for a people without aland,” or Golda Meir’s famous line “There are no Palestin¬ians.”By 1929 already 2000 Palestinians were landless and Bri¬tain continued to favor the Jews, giving them 90 percent ofall economic assistance from the mandate government,and exclusive access to Jordan river water for electricityand irrigation (there is not much water in Palestine). 1929was also the year for massive rioting at the Western W all —133 Jews and 116 Arabs died. Tension mounted, especiallyw hen Jews began to flood Palestine in flight from Nazi hor¬ror. 1935 was a year of worldwide economic depression —while Britain admitted unprecedented numbers of Jews,Palestinian Arabs watched their own wages drop propor¬tionally or lost their jobs altogether. The famous unans¬wered question began to haunt the Palestinians — “Whymust we be forced to pay for Hitler’s crimes?” Guerrilla cells w-ere formed by Arabs. The Jews hadalways had their army, the Haganah. There were attacksand counter-attacks. Arab strikes were severely punishedby the British. When Britain proposed partition in 1937 Pal¬estine erupted into Arab revolt. Britain attempted to crushthe people and failed; but by 1939 they had already changedtheir policy, due to a reckoning of need for Arab oil in thecoming conflict with Germany. Therefore a ceiling of 75,000(over a ten year period) was imposed on Jewish immigra¬tion, just when the Jews were most desperate to get out ofEurope. Revolt in Palestine shifted to Jewish hands — by1940. 20,000 Palestinians had been killed or wounded, andthousands jailed.All because Zionist immigration continued. EuropeanJews fleeing to their new' “homeland” discovered that theywere illegal. Underground Jewish terrorist organizations,such as Menachem Begin’s Irgun Zvai Leumi and the Sterngang, in frustration attacked both Palestinian and Britishtargets, including Deir Yassin village, where all 256 men,women and children were massacred. Ben-Gurion, chair ofthe Jewish Agency in Palestine, stated that “The FirstWorld War brought us the Balfour Declaration; the Secondought to bring us the state.” Meanwhile, European Jewswho did learn of Hitler’s plan of genocide in time stagedvaliant battles in self-defense, such as in the Warsaw ghettoin 1943, which many would later recall and compare to Pa¬lestinian battles.After World War II Britain announced it would wash itshands of the troublesome mandate and planned to leave byMay 15, 1948. A partition plan was approved by the UnitedNations General Assembly w’hich proposed “giving” only44 percent of the land to the Arabs w'ho constituted 70 per¬cent of the population, while the Jews, who legally ownedonly five percent of the land, were to receive 56 percent ofit. The United Nations, interestingly enough, does not ownland, and therefore cannot give anybody anything. Morerioting and protest. Harry Truman, in political trouble atthe polls, bought the vote with his promise to support thefledgling Israel. Thus when Israel declared itself an exclu¬sive Jewish state on May 14 the US recognized it in 11 min¬utes. In the ensuing war 425 Arab villages were razed, al¬most alLof which immediately became sites for new kibbutzsettlements or farmlands. This was a deliberate strategy toprevent the refugees’ return. Three-fourths of a million Pa¬lestinians were refused the right of return after that firstwar alone.Continued on page 14GREY CITY JOURNAL30 July 1982 • 15th YearLEARNING FROM THE BARBARIANS:WAITING FOR THE END OF THE WORLDWaiting for the Barbariansby J. M. CoetzeePenguin Books 156 pages $3.95by Sharon PeshkinFrom out of South Africa, acountry whose politics and societyconfuse and mystify most Ameri¬cans, comes a book professing to bea parable of oppressor and op¬pressed; temporally relevant, nodoubt, but abstract and universalenough to pose no threat to thatgovernment. This is not to say,however, that it poses no threat. Itis a deeply disturbing book — achallenge to the reader's mind andmorality.History rests upon the belief thatwhat transpires in human experience has a flow and a pattern. Butthere is no uniformity involved.The comfortable element is thesmooth circularity of the people —the cycle of seasons of lives, of gen¬erations. The harsh and unnaturalelement is that of empires — riseand fall, victory and defeat, hedon¬ism and doom. But history is astream whose current pulls thosewho enter it in the direction of thepower that impells it the strongest;small creatures may form ripples,larger ones even whirlpools, butthe strongest forces drag them allalong regardless of their small in¬tentions. And all whirlpools circledownward.The Magistrate is a man caughtin a whirlpool. He has lived a pleasant life during quiet times in asmall frontier outpost of the Em¬pire. But recently the peace hasbeen disturbed — out of the easehas sprung a paranoia; an hysteriaabout the barbarians. Soon the Em¬pire intrudes in the person of Colonel Joll — a study of beauty, vanity,brutality and evil. The peacefuloutpost becomes a fortress fromwhich offensives are mounted, andto which innocent prisoners arebrought, interrogated and tortured— all in the pursuit of a Truthwhich is valued above human de¬cency. And the Magistrate realizeswhat he has always known:I was not, as I liked to think, . twS' Mr ' J-' ^JAbbas, South Africa (Gamma, 1978)the indulgent pleasure lovingopposite of the cold rigid Colonel. I was the lie that the Em¬pire tells itself when times areeasy, he the truth that Empiretells when harsh winds blow.Two sides of imperial rule, nomore, no less.But in his whirlpool of resistance,the Magistrate can no longer maintain the dignity and comfort of hispostion in the Empire. He becomesinstead an enemy of the Empire,one of the sources of its frustration,one of the targets oi its wrath. Reduced to living buffered from the harshness of that rage only by hisown frail body, the Magistratelearns the meaning of humanity —to live in a body which can only entertain notions of justice while it ishealthy and whole. A man who hadformerly been far removed fromnature and the barbarian way oflife, he now finds himself physically and mentally controlled by thosewho determine his corporal state,reduced to animal needs and concerns. When he had been in control,when he had kept a barbarian girlin his bed, she had represented thebeast of nature and he the dictatorship of mind over body; indecisive, sexually impotent, alienated fromhis own desires. Now, reduced tothe basest quasi existence, he isable to appreciate her, and regrethis former impenetrability:If she had told me then, if Ihad understood her, if I hadbeen in a position to under¬stand her, if I had believedher, if I had been in a positionto believe her. . .Coetzee recognizes the inabilityof the human mind to ponder toomany levels of life at one time.Upon being forced to face the unde¬niable yet inalterable importanceof "higher" levels, we retreat intoan .intense concentration upon themost mundane. In the impendingdoom, the people of the outpost con¬tinue in their petty mortal ways,unable to accept or comprehendthe spectre hanging over theirheads threatening to annihilatethem suddenly; finally.As I sit here with my memoriesof the past and my plans for the fu¬ture, I am largely unaware of theICBMs pointed at me from all di¬rections. I believe in the power, thehorror, the devastation that a nu¬clear war would bring. I don't be¬lieve I would live through it, noreven want to. But neither do I thinkabout it as I live my day-to-day life.I am unable to admit my own mor¬tality, or to reconcile in my mindthe monstrosity which is interna¬tional politics with my admittedlybanal yet essential optimism aboutlife.Waiting for the Barbarians is thebest book I have ever read. Thepower of Coetzee's prose is so tre ¬mendous that its 156 pages cannotbe read quickly; like a burningcoal, it can only be held for a shorttime, then put down so that thereader's mind can recover from itsforce. But its relevance — the obvious parallels of the most disturbingelements of the Empire to theworld we live in — makes this bookcompelling and important. Coetzeethreatens to shed light upon thebarely disguised darkness entailedin "civilization". Reading his bookis utter defeat.Summer OnThe QuadsFilms(All in air-conditioned Cobb Hall, $2)Tonight at 7:15/9:15 pm:Bugs Bunny SuperstarJoin us for a fun-filled eveningof 9 classic Warner Brotherscartoons, as well as rarebehind-the-scenes footage andinterviews.Tonight at 7:15/9:30 pm:GRAND ILLUSIONJean Renoir’s powerful, bitter¬sweet, unforgettable anti-warmasterpiece.Wednesday (8/4) at 8 pm:SWISS FAMILYROBINSONWalt Disney’s delightful, breath¬taking adaptation of JonathanWyss’s children’s classic.Noontime ConcertWednesday, Aug. 4(Hutch Court, free)THE ROBERTO CLEMENTEHIGHSCHOOLSTEEL BAND(If rain, Reynolds Club Lounge)24-hr Activities Line:753-215024-hr Film Line:962-8575t -A Program olThe Student Activities Office THE • FALCON •1603-05 East 53rd St. • Just East of the 1C tracks10:30 AM-2 AM•5 Draft Beers *A Full Range(Old Style, Miller Light, of MixedStroh’s, Augsburger DrinksDark & Michelob)• Kitchen open(Fine hamburgers &•3 Draft Wines assorted sandwiches•On “B” busroute - 53rd &Cornell •Juke Box &Video Games(Including Pac-Man, Ms.Pac-Man, Donkey Kong& Centipede)The Falcon Inn is proud to restore toHyde Park the magnificent antique barand fixtures from The Eagle.

Orson's sententious but lovable strains introduce nine complete cartoons, aswell as helping along various interviews and features on suchWarner Brothers luminaries ascartoon directors Tex Avery andBob Clampett. Bugs Bunny Superstar is an invaluable historylesson about the classic age ofWarner cartoons, but the nine selections — funny as they may be— can in no way be consideredthe "best” of the Bugs/Warnersworks.

Three French prisoners ofwar are held in Germand handsduring WWI: an aristocrat(Pierre Fresnay), a mechanicfrom Paris (Jean Gabin), and aJewish banker (Marcel Dalio).They are transferred to a prisoncamp run by Erich von Stroheim,whose friendship with Fresnaygrows, while Gabin and Dalioplan their escape. Made on theeve of WWI I, The Grand Illusionis Renoir's anti war statement,yet is a work which casts no judgement on any of its characters.The futile honor of the nobility inthe face of an increasingly dehumanizing war machine, the noblecowardice of the middle andlower classes in the face of thewar itself, finally the sense ofcommon humanity between allsoldiers in the face of war's stupidity and faceless destruction,are all themes etched with careand painterly genius by Renoir.The Iliad on film, The Grand lllusion is highly recommended. Saturday, July 1 at 7:15 and 9:30.SAO (Quantrell.) $2 — SZ.The Magnificent Ambersons(Orson Welles, 1942.) After Citi¬zen Kane, Welles never had comolete control over his films, butGrey City Journal7/30/82Staff: Pat Cannon, JohnEgan, Pat Finegan, KeithFleming, Kira Foster,James Goodkind, S.M.Herndon, Shawn Magee,Jeff Makos, David Miller,Robin Mitchell, SharonPeshkin, Abby Scher, andKen Wissoker.Editing and Production byNadine McGann. The Magnificent Ambersons -made after Kane — overcomesits botched studio ending to standas one of Welles's most importantachievements. Based on BoothTarkington's novel, Welles details the fall of a wealthy familyin the face of increasing industrialization. Featuring stellarperformances by Joseph Cottenand Agnes Moorehead, The Magnificent Ambersons continues thedisplay of cinematic wizardrybegun in Kane. Continuing his useof deep focus and shifting narrafive devices (including narrationby Welles), Welles developed hisart of subtle revelation in suchscenes as the 167 second sequence between Moorehead andher nephew, played by a youngTim Holt. Welles's camera obstinately refuses to guide usthrough the labyrinth of an actionwe sense is becoming more tense,as objects continually solicit ourattention though no movement ofthe camera recognizes their presence. Highly recommended.Tuesday, August 3,8:00 DOC(Quantrell) S2 — SZ.Swiss Family Robinson (Walt Disney Studios, 1960.) Pure escapism for now people. The secondof three versions of the classicchildren's tale is the best, withJohn Mills and Dorothy McGuireat the head of a shipwrecked fam¬ily that learns to adapt to massive amounts of sand, as well asto defend itself from nastypirates led by the nasty SessueHayakawa. Swiss Family Robinson can be seen as an allegoryconcerning the defense of thefamily unit in the face of barbarous non western influences. Anticipating the nuclear freezemovement by almost twentyyears, the Disney Studio produced a powerful depiction of thecreation of a non patriarchal, holistic society in tune with nature,a social structure whose moralforce allows it to deter the forcesof armed agression. Recommended for children of all ages,especially those fond of JonathanSchell. Wednesday, Augus* 4,8:00. SAO (Quantrell) S2 — SZ.Odd Man Out (Carol Reed, 1947)Sheriff & Green's tale of a wounded IRA gunman (James Mason),at large in the side streets of wintertime Belfast, is much morethan England's best received,cinematic man hunt. It is a studyof man at the limits of anguishand dereliction, and of his painfulawakening to the absence ofcharity among those with whomhe collides. Be it the mad artist(Robert Newton) who — foamingwith delusions of capturing deathon canvas — harbors him, theweary doctor (Elwyn BrookJones) who — for the sake of lostpride — bandage him, or the sniveling informer (FC. McCormick) who — for a price —schemes to sell him, the fugifive's prognosis is the same:"(T)hough I have all faith, sothat I could remove mountains,and have not charity, I am nothing." Although Odd Man Out isn'tperfect (it bogs down in its ownallegorical significance, and maybe a bit too grim or intelligent formass consumption), it will bequite some time before it is rivaled; the other Reed Kraskermasterpieces, The Third Manand The Fallen Idol, simply don'tcirculate very often.

Almost 100 paintings and objects, aswell as photographs of his performance works, manuscripts, andletters are included in the retrospective of this French artist'swork. During his brief career,Klein, believing that art shouldresult in experiences rather thanobjects, proved himself dedicated to destroying old forms of artand creating new ones; much ofhis work seems in retrospect tohave prefigured performanceand conceptual art. Klein is bestknown for his monochronicpanels, a number of which are ineluded in the exhibit along withworks involving the action ofwind and rain on a prepared surface of dried pigment; canvasessinged by blow torches; and largepaintings for which nude bodieswere used as brushes.

LOOSE SCRIPTby Cate WileyConfusions could be similar to every otherdomestic comedy about the silly situationsin which human nature embroils itself. Insome ways it is; the characters and quarrels are standard stuff, but there is a happylack of the insipidness generally associatedwith "home life” comedy. Alan Ayckbourn's characters, competently portrayedin this Body Politic production, are funnynot because they are instantly believablebut because they are such shameless stereotypes that their ridiculous doom is sealedthe minute they open their mouths. As theyblunder from one scene to the next, Ayckbourn's people make us believe that they deserve what they get, but we are glad that nobody gets hurt in the end. And despite thefantastic plot contortions, they do not depictanything extraordinary. Most of us simplyare not tragic; we make do with the ups anddowns, the confusions, of our day to day existence as best we can. More often than not,though we hate to admit it, our little dailydramas are more amusing than anythingelse. Ayckbourn exploits this cleverly butwithout malice; there is bite to his whimsybut also a real affection for those folks who,try as they might, can never seem to gettheir lives in order. A certain intangible orderliness is a trait Americans assume in theEnglish, but here we see how nearsightedwe have been. The only order in this show isthe structured balance between script andproduction generated by long rehearsals;only with this kind of rigidity can a comedytruly cut loose.Except for a few jarring dialect notes,Confusions is a tight production from beginning to end. The pragmatic set designed byBody Politic's Artistic Director JamesO'Reilly is a series of painted flats reminiscent of a child's coloring book. Appropriately lit in warm understatement by LynnZiehe, it is no more evocative of the realworld than would be a signboard nailed tothe stage stating "A Home," "A Restaurant," "A Park," but it is not distracting.Instead it underlines the gentle cynicism infusing the play from start to finish andseems to be saying, "I am a piece of woodwith pictures painted on me...So simpleeven a child could do it." The play, likewise,does not shrink from being a play. We haveseen all of the characters before and are willing to expect anything of them, as longas it is funny.Childishness is the theme of the first vi¬gnette, in which a harried mother talks toher neighbors in exactly the same tone sheuses with her children — and presumablyeverybody else. Her neighbors, the noseytypes we fondly imagine all English suburbanites to be, start behaving like childrenwhen served with juice, milk, and "chockybikkies." (That's standard english for choc¬olate cookies.) The two actresses, Jayne At¬kinson and Belinda Bremner, fair betterthan does Peter Van Wagner, although hedoes have one good bit with a cup of lukewarm milk. For some reason he does not ap¬pear warmed up for his scene, because thewoodenness he suffers from here disappearsin his later appearances.The second piece (there are five in all,loosely connected by one character or another), "Drinking Companions," is flat in Y.comparison to the first but fortunately the 2acting is witty enough to make us tolerate ^the writing. It is the old tale of the errant a>businessman (who just happens to be the cmissing husband of the crazy mother in the «>first scene) failing miserably in an attemptto coax a "dumb" blond and her friend intohis hotel room. The two women changecharacters so convincingly that a glance atthe program is needed to be sure that theyare, indeed, the same actresses we have justseen. Roger Mueller is excellent as the pitifully inept Don Juan, as is JamesMcCance's snooty waiter. But the story hasbeen told so many times that despite the occasional laughs provided by Mueller's increasingly drunken slurs, this scene and theone following it do not live up to the originality of the first. The best thing that can besaid for the third is, again, the performances are all good. Two couples meet unintentionally in a restaurant but try to ignore each other for what turn out to beobvious reasons. Thanks to Pauline Brailsford's nimble direction and McCane's evennimbler striding about as the waiter, thescene is funny enough to keep us hoping itwill get more interesting. That it doesn't isthe fault of the playwright.For the first vignette of Act II it appearsthat everybody — author, director, technicians, and actors — has pulled out all thestops in the name of hilarity. It is a tea tent, Peter Van Wagner, Belinda Bremmer, andcommunity gathering, county fair, boyscoutjamboree free for all in which every con¬ceivable disaster occurs at exactly thewrong time. The scene is perfect throughoutand nobody could look worse in a boyscoutuniform (lovingly designed by Kerry Flem¬ing) than James McCance. The plot conundrums for this one defy description, butevery British smalltown stereotyoe is present; redfaced MC brandishing megaphone,doddering wife of Conservative Party can¬didate, inane scout leader, near sightedvicar (whose battle with an overflowing tea-urn is a superlative of comic timing), andtwenty-six year-old deflowered virgin. It is ashame the play does not end here. Ayckbourn must have felt that a fifth piece wasneeded to wrap up the evening, but theseries of monologues ending in a pedictablestatement about how nobody really listensto anything other people say, is a disappoint¬ment. Fonunately all of the actors can beremembered for *heir roles in the rest of theplay and "A ra‘ in the Park" cannot beheld against thenConfusions, then, >s not an unforgettable Jayne Atkinson in Confusionsevent in the lives of Chicago theater goers,but it is enjoyable in a way more intenseplays are not. Ayckbourn's comments on thehuman predicament are undeniably cynical, but they are always humorous; and unlike Neil Simon, he does not sacrifice intelli¬gence for laughs. He writes about averagepeople caught in agonizingly ridiculous di¬lemmas, which is what makes them so easyto laugh at. His characters, terribly, terribly British, are instantly appealing to anAmerican audience because they strenthenall of our misguided (and I suspect sometimes envious) preconceptions about theEnglish commonman. There are enoughjolly goods, I say, and frightfully this's andthat's to satisfy any anglophile. Even if itdoesn't make you think, Confusions, willcertainly keep you smiling, and that's morethan can be said for a lot of entertainmentpassed off as comedy.Confusions is playing until August 15 atthe Body Politic Theatre, 2261 N.

The rift betweenbrothers — as in Cain and Abel, the quintessential classic — and between fathers andsons — pity poor Oedipus — has been at theheart of some of the world's most fascinating stories. Even uncles and nephews — consider Richard III and Hamlet — are not tobe denied.Until recently, however, with few excep¬tions very little creative energy has been devoted to the examination of relationships between female family members. Only latelyin the 20th century, it seems, do mothers,daughters, and sisters, come of age as subjects substantial enough to sustain a goodstory. And one of the most noteworthy ofthese modern storytellers is Margarethevon Trotta, a German filmmaker whose second feature, Sisters, or the Balance of Happiness is premiering in Chicago tomorrow atthe Film Center of the School of the Art Institute.Von Trotta, who has been involved in therenaissance of German cinema in a varietyof capacities — acting (in Fassbinder's TheAmerican Soldier, among others),screenwriting (for her husband, the filmmaker Volker Schlondorff), and co directing (the film version of Nobel Prize winnerHeinrich Boll's novel, The Lost Honor ofKatharine Blum) — is just coming into herown as an independent director. Her firstfeature, The Second Awakening of ChristaKlages, met with critical acclaim inEurope, but remains relatively unknown inthe States. With Sisters, however, she is onthe verge of escalating to the upper echelonof the New German Cinema, once a place reserved only for Fassbinder, Herzog, andWenders. The film revolves around the relationshipbetween two sisters, close in age and heldtogether by a wealth of shared experienceand a compulsive mutual dependence. Theritualization of this dependence was developed early in childhood; we are shown flashbacks in which Maria, the older sister, deli¬berately terrorizes the younger Anna withscary fairytales, all the while reveling in theanticipatory knowledge that she would thenbe needed for comfort and reassurance.The film catches up to them as youngwomen in their late twenties trying to maketheir way through the maze of contemporary adulthood. Maria seems to havefound, or at least resigned herself to, herniche as a dutiful executive secretary for afirm in the gray industrial city of Hamburg.Anna, however, is still searching, currentlytrapped in a dead end situation as a graduate student in biology, a field of study inwhich she shows little interest.Maria is depicted as an archetype of Teutonic severity and reserve. At the office shewears tailored, classic suits and her longhair wound into a tight and tidy bun. Herprofessional environment is hi-tech, cleanlines of cool metal and glass; her personalrhythm has the precision and accuracy of anIBM Selectric. She treats her colleagueswith diffident propriety, never lapsing intothe informal mode of German speech — anattitude which prompts one of them to remark icily how nice she would look in a furcoat — of polar bear skins!Anna, on the other hand, is a throwback tothe age of German Romanticism. She isplagued with a poetic personality in the tradition of Novalis (when she should be studying, she is scribbling in a journal), and surrounded by a vague aura of melancholia andlonging (however subconscious) for death.As the film takes place, Anna is preparing for her orals (it is clearly ironic that she is ascholar in the field of life sciences), yet it isMaria who is obsessed with Anna's success.Maria is the one providing for her educationand upkeep, a fact that she mercilesslythrows in Anna's face. In one scene, Mariachastises Anna for neglecting to take out thegarbage; yet as Anna gets up from her deskto do it, Maria, placated by having reminded Anna how dependent she is, scoops it upefficiently, revealing to the viewer her ownneurotic need to be needed.The dependency is not strictly financial,nor is it unilateral. Anna does need Maria —her fragile world threatens to crack at thehint of pressure and only Maria can offerprotection for her exposed vulnerabilities.At times their love is warm and theircaresses tender, at other times their love isoppressive and the frustration so great thatthey erupt into physcial violence. These sequences are so penetrating precisely because they underscore visually the nature oftheir dilemma; they are unable to find thepoint of equilibrium (the balance of happiness suggested in the subtitle). The pullingtowards and the pushing away depict the simultaneous desire for intimacy, both emotional and physical, and horror at thethought of it. The intimation is clearly thatof incest.Von Trotta herself has said that the relationship in Sisters could "equally well be theinterconnection between a man and awoman." Neither of the women is involvedin an outside relationship until Maria startsdating her boss' son, perhaps to prove something to herself. Although upset, Anna initially appears accepting of the situation; asthe frequency of Maria's dates increase,however, she becomes choked with jealousy. Maria's affection for the man,Maurice, is tepid at best But it has served as a wedge between the sisters, allowingAnna the necessary distance to come to thehorrible realization that life, as they havebeen living it, cannot go on. She scrawls inher journal that she has "broken the laws ofnature,” explains there to Maria why she isdoing what she feels she must, and in the ul¬timate act of independence, severs herselffrom Maria by slitting her wrists.Maria, of course, is devastated by Anna'sdeath, and it is some time before she isready to re enter the work a day world. Sheis aided, however, by a young girl, Miriam,whom she had previously befriended at theoffice by pulling her out of the typing pooland making her her assistant. Initially,Maria had been annoyed by Miriam's lackof professionalism — too many trips to thewashroom and incessant boy craziness -but gradually this free spirit who prefersbralessness and jeans to Maria's moresomber attire, begins to win her over. AfterAnna's death, the two become ever closer;and Maria, realizing that Miriam is unhappy being a simple secretary, suggeststhat she move in with her so that Miriamcan go to school, for which Maria has offered to pay.The viewer is thus immediately confronted with a sense of deja vu. Miriam's situation echoes that of the sisters; von Trottashoots identical scenes, mutatis mutandis,identical gestures. The relationship becomes increasingly suffocating, all consuming. There is one difference, however:Miriam refuses to be sucked into that web ofself destruction. Having surreptitiouslyread Anna's journal, she sees the dangersignals in her own relationship with Mariaand bails out before it's too late, leavingMaria, once again, undeniably alone to refleet on her isolation.In viewing Sisters, one is well aware thatvon Trotta has done her cinematic homework. Her artistic debt to Ingmar Bergman, a filmmaker known for his constantprobing of the female psyche, is immense.The notion of neurotic, obsessive love between two sisters has its progenitor in thefinal film of Bergman's famous trilogy, TheSilence. The agony of this relationship, andespecially the gut wrenching jealousy at thediscovery of the inclusion of a man, mustcome immediately to mind as one views Sisters. Several elements of Bergman's masterful study of sorority, Cries and Whispers,are also to be found in von Trotta's work.The existence of the dead woman's journaland its preciousness to the one left behind,the oneiric sequences involving the resurrection of the dead, and especially the blurring of the distinction between sensualityand sexuality, are elements common to bothfilms.Von Trotta also appears to have picked upone of the tricks of the trade from her collaborator and mentor, the late R.W. Fassbinder, in her penchant for using mirrors.The semiotics of this technique are clear —the duality of the self. In the foyer of Maria'sapartment there is a mirror positioned perfectly so that each time she enters, we aretreated to a double exposure. In a dream sequence, Maria peers into the mirror only tosee Anna's face, not her own, atop thewoman in the business suit.This is not to imply that von Trotta's art issimply derivative. On the contrary, it appears that her apprenticeship has servedher well, learning and gleaning from themasters in order create from within. For itis these inner images that set her apart. As awoman, she refuses to give in to the mythologization of women a la Bergman, andcreate another das Ewig WeibUche. Rather,drawing on the challenges which a modernwoman must face, — and of which sne has afirsthand and empathetic knowledge — shecreates a fresh and envigorating image. Shegives us an unmediated view, as if she andher subject were almost one. This lack ofdirectional distance gives the viewer amore emotional identification with the subject, as if the lense were suddenly twistedinto full focus — a woman's vision of awoman.6—FRIDAY, JULY 30, 1982—THE GREY CITY JOURNAL'Ay***>,*'°Ay°00*%. ^VwN/>*»\W <$*. ^o,S<\w4 6 '/•„>/)•'' HYDE PARK ^irHILTON JLbrings you thefinest in dining atvery affordable pricesCHARTWELLHOUSESPECIALSOa% $5-,•v?0%&$$>$£ *S^Cv.5-,*^0 *49CX) South Lake Shore Drive • 288-5800The Chicago Maroon—Friday, July 30. 1982—11wmContacts for Sale!What Is A Bargain?The 4 questions most frequently asked about contact lenses are:1.

This makesranking difficult, since both teams haveclaims to top spots. The Brickbats, obvious¬ly, have not lost, and thus will be placedabove the Hyde Away. The Naughty Swee¬ties took another game this week, and nowpost a win-loss record of 4 and 1.There was little play in the Coed Whitethis week. Fourth place Spam easily beatthe Nads, and is still a threat, though theWhite division teams seem as a whole to besomewhat weaker than those of the Red.There are questions concerning the strengthof White leader Socratics' defense. Theypost a 5-0 record, but may have troubleagainst some of the hard-hitting teams inthe other divisions.The Coed Blue is still up in the air, withthe Mingling Oral Secretions, the BS Hittersand the Molecular Sieves all vying for su¬premacy. The Secretions and the Hittersmissed a confrontation on Thursday be¬cause of rain, and will play at a later date.The Sieves and the Hitters have both lostonce, the Sieves to the Secretions (by onerun) and the Hitters to the Sieves (again, byone). The Secretions are still undefeated —if they lose to the Hitters by one a certainreporter will give up in disgust and join theMarines.Men’s play is, at least, fairly consistent.The Blue division featured this week’s onlysurprise: The Hyde Away Saints lost to theFat City Nine 17-12. During the game, theSaints lost their pitcher to a hand injury andthe defense became holey. This division haswitnessed the Saints' downhill slide from aposition as the favorite to third place, be¬ PHOTO BY C E BEISELhind the Nine and the ever-present Mr. GHitmen.The Men’s White continually shows itselfto be the toughest overall division. Thisweek Bottone’s, the third place team, rippedJimmy’s 19-1. Each of the White’s best threeteams, See Your Road, the Medici, and Bot¬tone’s, could probably defeat both leaders ofthe other men’s divisions. Bottone’s and theMedici have not yet played; their game willdetermine who gets the first shot at SeeYour Food.In a key Men’s Red decision, the StatsRats pulled out a one run victory over theFalcon Inn. The game contained very littlehitting; both defenses played well.The Men’s top five are relatively stable.The teams should finish in their presentorder, with the possible exception of a Bot-tone’s-Medici shakeup.John Burke of Mingling Oral Secretions SOFTBALL RANKINGSMen1 See Your Food2.

The point ofall that history is that it is difficult to blameany one party. All are implicated in the ag¬gression and exploitation, from the Ger¬mans to the British to the Americans to theIsraelis to the Palestinians. Let he who isblameless cast the first stone. And yet in thefinal reckoning it is the Palestinians whohave been forced to pay for it all, which isobviously not right either. They had donenothing to initiate the conflict, other thanexist. But Zionism, predicated on freeaccess to the land, found them an inherentobstacle. Hence they became victims ofWestern machinations. To blame the Pales¬tinians in this conflict is to blame the vic¬tims. Chaim Weizman predicted that theworld would judge Israel on its treatment ofthe Arabs. This has proved true.Since its founding the Jewish state hasfound itself in the tricky position of main¬taining two separate codes of law for the tworacial groups making up its population andyet declaring itself a democracy, “the onlydemocracy in the Middle East” to be exact.How is this possible? First of all, Israel doesnot have a constitution (it uses a compila¬tion of Turkish. British and even Jordanianlaw, whenever “appropriate”). To have aconsitution you must define your bordersand this is not in the interests of Zionists wholay claim to those lands deeded to Abrahamby God, i.e. from the Nile to the Euphrates.Ben-Gurion declared that it should be up toeach generation of Israelis to determinetheir borders. Begin takes this kind of thingvery seriously, especially the God part.After all. these are the chosen people.And obviously Israel is a Jewish state, in¬tended for the sole benefit of one racial ele¬ment of its population. Automatic citizen¬ship for any Jew on earth. Just do not beunlucky enough to be born Arab there. Be¬cause Arab Israelis are discriminatedagainst: they cannot legally refer to them¬selves as Palestinians or even wear thecolors of their flag; they cannot front theirown political parties for parliamentary elec¬tions (only Rakah, the communist party,has equally shared leadership); they are notdrafted into the army (only some Druze orChristians serve in special divisions); theycannot legally marry Israelis; they do notlive on kibbutzim, etc. Arab grammar andelementary schools are too poorly funded toprepare their students for Jewish universi¬ties (all taught in a second language forArabs) yet the state does nothing to correctthis condition. All money for education andsocial services is automatically funnelledinto Jewish communities. Arabs who do getinto university (15 percent of the studentbody at most) are forced into humanitiesfields and are discouraged or forbidden tostudy sciences, especially fields like geogra¬phy and physics which are military-relat¬ed.The benefits and services of the state arefor Jews only; anyone else gets second-classtreatment. The most pernicious aspect ofthis double standard is that it is all unwrit¬ten, unadmitted. Yet any Arab runs into itlike a brick wall from day one, while the restof the world closes their eyes to this blatantracial discrimination; the Israeli goal is toeliminate Palestinian consciousness andpride. Israel is seeking to deprive the word“Palestinian” of any referent whatsoever,either by encouraging all the Arabs to leaveor by convincing them they are really Israe¬lis (all the while denying it with their doublestandard). Clever. A “subtle” form of geno¬cide. What distinguishes this country fromSouth Africa? Only that Israel refuses toadmit what it is doing.It is much worse for Arabs living in theWest Bank and Gaza Strip, but of courseIsrael is an occupier there (although it doesnot recognize Geneva Convention applica¬bility to its occupation) and does not evenpretend at a democracy. There is constantharassment of Arab civilians and local gov¬ernments. Elected officials are deposed orexiled (sometimes blown up in boobytrapped cars), and municipal councils aredissolved. Arab newspapers are censored(read any issue of Jerusalem newspaperand you will see the blank spaces) anu everymale is treated as a suspected guerrilla by agovernment which randomly interrogates, tortures, extracts confessions from and in¬carcerates Palestinians in a military courtsystem which is a complete farce.Almost as bad as the torture is the landthefts. Any Arab who cannot “prove” heowns the land (the fact that his family haslived there for centuries becomes meanin¬gless) automatically loses it. Arabs who doown land in the West Bank and Gaza Stripstill pay taxes on it, even though they re¬ceive no representation. In Israel there is noproblem with taxation without representa¬tion. Property assessments are very high, ina government attempt to bankrupt Arabsand take their lands. Even lands which are“legally” owned by Arabs are being ran¬domly expropriated at a devastatingly highrate. From 1967 to 1979, for example, 610,000dunams (one-fourth acre) in the West Bankand 400 dunams in the Gaza Strip weregrabbed from Arabs. Expropriated “for de¬fensive purposes,” over two-thirds of theselands were then actually used for new settle¬ments (high rise complexes in the occupiedterritories for Jewish residents only), popu¬lated by immigrants imported from Rus¬sian, Yemin, etc. Every land grab meanstotal loss of livelihood for those farmers andshepherds whose families had worked thoselands for centuries. There was never anycompensation. The purpose of this abuse ofWest Bank and Gaza Strip Arabs is to drivethem from their lands, away from the grow¬ing state of Israel. Encouraging them tomerge with other Arab populations in theMiddle East is a means of making them dis¬appear, one of the basic needs of Zionism. Itis a form of genocide.Finally we come to the issue of the latestIsraeli invasion of Lebanon, which is reallyjust another version of the Israeli attemptsto make Golda Meir’s saying come true,“There are no Palestinians.” It is the mostextreme form of genocide we see the Israe¬lis practicing. Latest figures by impartialinternational observers place deaths at14,000, wounded at 30,000 and homeless at600,000. If Israelis have such sophisticatedweaponry why didn’t they use it accurately?Why did they destroy hospitals and level en¬tire refugee camps when they had their tar¬gets so clearly marked out for them? Andwhile there were a few acts of mercy to thePalestinian and Lebanese POWs there arealso reports of savage beating deaths at thehands of Israeli soldiers. The claim that thePLO was a serious threat to Israeli securityis invalidated by the ease with which Israelblasted through southern Lebanon. Thereal, and again acknowledged, aim is toeliminate the “Palestinian problem.”The PLO is the legitimate representativeof the Palestinian people. Just ask any Pa¬lestinian. In 1964 the PLO was founded andits leader. Ahmed Shuqeri, appointed byGamal Abdel Nasser, formulated thefamous strategy of “pushing the Jews intothe sea.” Shuqeri resigned in 1967, and thePalestine National Charter was revised,with the stated intention being to reestablisha secular democratic Palestinian state onPalestinian land. The goal is cohabitationwith all peoples. Nobody would be forced toleave to make way for the new state. Al¬though radicals desire reforming the entireracist state of Israel into the secular demo¬cratic state, moderates such as Yassit Ara¬fat would settle for the West Bank and GazaStrip.The war in Lebanon has cost three billiondollars. And last year’s US foreign econom¬ic and military aid to Israel was three billiondollars (25 percent of our total foreign aid).Why don’t we let Israel take care of its ownexpenses? The money would be better spentin reconstructing the shattered remains ofLebanon. We can no longer conscience fund¬ing a military and settlement policy aimedat eliminating Palestinians. Let a true de¬mocracy establish itself. Or let Israel payits own way.GRAFF & CHECKReal Estate1617 E. 55th St.1 W-2%-4 room & 6 roomapartments.

July 30. 1982—15The PLOfTIust Quit Lebanon!We speak as Lebanese Americans, profoundly concern¬ed with the fate of family and friends in the land of ourfathers.Seven years ago Lebanon was occupied by PLO ter¬rorists who had been expelled from Jordan after failingto overthrow King Hussein. During those seven yearsthey committed an orgy of artrocities and desecrationagainst women and children, churches, and gravesites. discriminately shelling the population of East Beirutwithout cause. PLO gunmen at roadblocks are turningback Lebanese families seeking safety outside the city.The PLO would see the city go up in flames rather thanleave in peace.What right does the PLO have to decide the fate ofBeirut?In collusion with the Syrian occupation army, the PLOmade war on the people of Lebanon. From 1975through 1981 the toll among civilians was 100,000 kill¬ed, 250,000 wounded, countless thousands madehomeless. Thirty-two thousand children were orphaned.And the world was silent. Who gave them authority to insist that Lebanesecivilians die with them?When will the world understand that Lebanon will neverknow peace or freedom until the PLO and the Syriansdepart? Israel should also withdraw'—and a strong andsovereign Lebanese government will be restored.From the safety of Beirut, the PLO became the vitalcenter of radical activity in the Middle East, launchingan international war of terrorism against the West andspearheading Soviet penetration of the region. Lebanon’s people cry out in agony for an end to the ter¬rible destruction that has been brought upon them.Now, before it is too late, we call on President Reaganand all w ho love peace and value human life.From refugee camps and occupied villages in southernLebanon, they bombarded Israeli towns and farms withSoviet-supplied arms—inviting Israeli retaliation.Civillian casualties multiplied because the PLO usedhospitals as command posts, schools as barracks, apart¬ment houses as ammunition. The PLO must go—at once!The terrorists must not be permitted to bring Beirutcrashing down around them. They must not be allowedto jeopardize the lives of more Lebanese civilians. Theymust not destroy w hat remains of a nation and a people.BEIRUT HELD HOSTAGE.
