Nearly 300 members ofthe faculty signed a petition ofdissociation, including 13 depart¬ment chairmen and the directorsof 20 programs and Court Theatre.More than 100 of the 400 alumniwho were here this weekend forthe Reunion signed a separatepetition.

The Committee of May 22 Steering CommitteeVietnam veteran Ron Kovic speaksBy Andrew PatnerTonight, Hanna Gray and RobertMcNamara, representatives of theAlbert Pick Jr. Fund and the Coun¬cil on Foreign Relations, membersof the faculty and the administra¬tion. trustees — 230 people in all —will sit in black tie in HutchinsonCommons and eat a catered din¬ner.President Gray will make ashort speech and will give McNa¬mara $25,000. McNamara willmake a long speech and the guestswill applaud. Everyone will get upand go home.Tonight, too, other speeches willbe made. Songs will be sung andsigns will be carried. And at the ap¬pointed time, all the eyes of thoseoutside Hutchinson Commons, andall the television cameras andradio microphones, will turn to an¬other speaker. He will be harder tosee because it will be dark outsideand he will be sitting. But everyonewill be listening to Ron Kovic. Andwhen he is through, there will prob¬ably be some more singing andchanting and then everyone willget up and go home.Everyone except Ron Kovic. Hewill never get up. For 11 and a halfyears he has sat in a wheelchair.He has been paralyzed from thechest down ever since he was 21years old. On January 20,1968, RonKovic was on the banks of a river in North Vietnam, about to kill someNorth Vietnamese, when a bulletripped through his body and shat¬tered his spine.Robert McNamara probablydoes not know Ron Kovic. He prob¬ably has a less vivid recollection ofthat particular day in January1968. He probably remembers thatgeneral period when he had allthose doubts about the war in Viet¬nam. 1968 was a very troublesomeyear for Robert McNamara. Hewas so saddened by the War thenthat he left the Defense Depart¬ment that March.But Ron Kovic knows RobertMcNamara even if he has not methim. He certainly knows his name.When he w as in Boot Camp in 1964he had to say it every night. “Sir!The Secretary of Defense of theUnited States of America is theHonorable Robert S. McNamara!Sir!” It was a nightly litany justlike the Our Father and it beganwith Lyndon Johnson and it endedwith the immediate commandingofficer.Kovic is in Chicago at the invita¬tion of Mayor Jane Byrne as herguest of honor and as the keynotespeaker at the Memorial Day ob¬servance to be held by the City ofChicago in Grant Park It is to be a“Welcome home to Vietnam warveterans.”Ron Kovic was not made so wel¬come when he came home in 1968.He lay in a hospital bed for almost Ron Kovica year. He lay in his own excre¬ment in a VA hospital and he usedto wake up in the middle of thenight screaming. He was thrownout of his w heelchair and beaten bythe Los Angeles Police in 1972 andthat summer he was spit upon andcalled a traitor, he a decorated vet¬eran. by the conventioneers thatrenominated Richard Nixon.He wrote all about himself in abest-selling book called Born onthe Fourth of July, and he becamesomething of a celebrity. He talkedon Sunday about what has hap¬pened to him, fuw he has sufferedand how he has changed since he was born on July 4, 1946 And hetold me how he felt about the PickAward and about Robert McNa¬mara.It is hard to convey a sense ofRon Kovic to someone who has notmet him. It is hard to show that hewas not always a small man. It ishard to show what a physical manhe was and is. He gives the impres¬sion that he used to pace a lot whenhe talked: while he talks now helifts up his body with his powerfularms and moves it from side toside in his wheelchair. He speaksabout responsibility, about obliga¬tion. He speaks with such energyand clarity that his words aregiven to you just as he spokethem.“I was wounded on January 20,1968. in the Demilitarized Zone(DMZ) just before the Tet Offen¬sive. I was a sergeant, a squadleader ef a two-pronged battalionassault on a village on the northbank of the Cuviet River. I waswounded by a bullet that wentthrough my right foot and by onethat entered my right shoulder,collapsing a lung and severing andshattering my spinal cord, para¬lyzing me from the chest down forthe rest of my life.

Kovic speaks outfrom 1“I grew up in Massapecqua, Long Is¬land. I was an all American boy — LittleLeague, high school wrestling champion. Imarched on Memorial Day wearing my CubScout uniform. My heroes were JohnWayne, Audie Murphy, Sergeant York. Iread Sergeant York comic books, loved mycountry, went to church on Sunday. I wantedto be a good American.“I believed I had an obligation to servemy country. Not just to fight in a war, but tobe a hero. All my life I wanted to be aMarine. I had the Marine Training Manualsince I was nine years old. My uncle was aMarine, decorated in World War II andKorea. I used to get dressed up in his Marineuniform. I still have a picture of me in it.Later my uncle got kicked out of the Ameri¬can Legion for opposing Vietnam.“In 1964 I graduated high school. I was 18years old. I was inspired by John F. Ken¬nedy. I wanted to know what / could do formy country. I volunteered and joined theMarine Corps. And I went to Boot Camp atParis Island, South Carolina.“I went on a tour of duty in Vietnam for 13months. I was in the Third Battalion Sev¬enth Marines, and First Battalion, Recon-naisance. I went on 22 long range patrols forsix, seven days at a time in North Viet¬nam.“When I went back to camp in North Caro¬lina, I would read about the protestors andresistors, and I became angered. I felt thatthey were traitors. I volunteered for a sec¬ond tour. I was wounded, there were 37 ofour men killed in that assault. A man waskilled trying to save me. I was finally savedby a large black Marine. That’s all I can re¬member.“We were evacuated and I was sent toDanang. I was in intensive care in criticalcondition for a week. When I came out I wastold that I was paralyzed, that I would neverwalk again. But I was very happy to be alive. I fought with everything I had tolive.“I was in that hospital and American boysdied all around me. Vietnamese werewounded and dying. It had a profound effecton me. I was across from a man who couldhave been the one that shot me.“There were no enemies in the intensivecare ward. All of us were fighting for ourlives.“I was taken to Japan to a hospital for twomore weeks. All I could think about was thatI was alive. It was an exhilaration, no de¬pression. It didn’t matter that I couldn’t feelanything. I was very spirited and hopefuland positive. I was 21. I still had that blindsureness of indestructability that a youthhas.“I finally came home to Long Island, viaAnchorage, on what seemed like an endlesstrip. I went to St. Alban’s Hospital withseven broken ribs, a collapsed lung, a hole inmy foot, a severed spinal cord. My mom anddad and all my neighbors came to see me.“When the Marine representatives hadgone to see my mother, she thought I haddied. She started crying, ‘Ronnie’s dead,Ronnie’s dead.’ But they told her I hadn’tdied. That I was alive but that I was wound¬ed, that I was in a guarded condition.“I had the agony of adjusting to a bodythat would never feel again. To sexualorgans that would never function. I couldnever perform normal sexual intercourse. Icould never father a child.“I was coming home paralyzed to acountry that was encouraged by its govern¬ment to discourage all talk about that War.To stigmatize that generation that was socruelly and manipulatively misused. I was apart of the Vietnam holocaust.“I was in St. Alban’s Hospital for twomonths and then I went home and then to theBronx Veterans Administration (VA) Hospi¬tal.

Sahlins was the principal organ¬izer of the first “teach-in" against the Viet¬nam War in 1965 in Ann Arbor.Kovic on the Pick Award for International Destruction’from 2on me as intensive care and paralysis did.This was the hospital that was a Life Maga¬zine cover story in May of 1970, ‘Our Forgot¬ten Wounded.’“The mistreatment and insensitivity thatplace exhibited, the violence to the humanspirit. We were paralyzed and wounded vet¬erans lying for hours, days, in our own ex¬crement, treated like animals.“When McNamara was calling for moremoney for arms and weaponry, funds for VAhospitals were cut. The same governmentthat had outfitted us and sent us to the Warwas cutting us back. W’e were the disadvan¬taged, we were the receiving end of thosecuts. It was a cruel and unforgiving experi¬ence.“This is where I began to questionwhether we had gone to the War and givenup our bodies for nothing. We wanted toknow, lying there in those hospital beds withvermin and vomit what we had given up ourbodies for — for nothing, for a lie, a cheaptrick, a hoax.“I realized that I was nothing but a pawnin a game that had been played by men whocould care less.“We so represented the truth of thatWar.“By the spring of 1969, I had enrolled atHofstra University on Long Island, I was in¬vited to address a high school audience,along with another paraplegic friend. Atfirst I didn’t want to speak out against theWar. But after that speech, after I told themabout the indignities I had suffered, afterlooking out at those kids, I felt a responsibil¬ity and an obligation.“A few years before, I had sat in thosesame seats and listened to a Marine Corpsrecruiter tell me how they were going tobuild up my body, mind, and spirit. HowAmerica had never lost a war. I thoughtabout how I had lost three-quarters of mybody, and I suddenly realized that people lis¬tened to me.“1 moved to California and became anactivist after reading about how Vietnamveterans had thrown their medals away. 1 went to Washington to protest the Kent Statekillings. It was my first protest against theW’ar.“I was going to colleges, churches, highschools, demonstrations, everywhere, ev¬eryday. I lived off my monthly disabilitycheck and I had a lot of friends helping me.It became full-time, my life. I didn't wantwhat had happened to me to happen to an¬other young man. To be paralyzed. To behospitalized“My body had been robbed from me. Iwas outraged, angered beyond belief. Thishorrible victimization could not go on an¬other day. I would wake up in the middle ofthe night screaming. I would wake up eachmorning to a corpse.“Now I have much more peacefulness. Ihave understanding and a purpose. I choseto live, survive, understand the lessons ofthe War. The book was a catharsis. It helpedto heal rile, to transcend the agony, the sad¬ness.“It is the mission of a survivor. It is essen¬tial to the survivor of any horror — Hiroshi¬ma, Auschwitz, Vietnam. You must articu¬late in time a reason for being, face yourtrauma, feel once again a part of the com¬munity you felt so alienated from.“I went to the Republican National Con¬vention in Miami in the summer of 1972. Idrove across the United States in a caravanof Vietnam veterans and their families,sleeping on the ground in the rain. Three ofus in wheelchairs were on the floor of theConvention and just as Nixon started deli¬vering his acceptance speech, we shoutedStop the bombing! Stop the War!’“The Secret Service agents surroundedus. The conventioneers were spitting in myface and calling me a traitor. Finally, wewere thrown out of the hall. It was then thatwe started receiving national attention“In April of that year, I had been thrownout of my wheelchair and beaten bymembers of the Los Angeles Police Depart¬ment in front of Nixon Headquarters. I spentfive days in the Los Angeles County Jail.“Over a nine year period I w as arrested 12 times, once for each of my medals. They 'reall gone now. I threw them away. Medalscan never bring back my body Over theselast nine years I have lost nine of myfriends, paraplegics and quadraplegics. Forevery year that I have been home from theWar, I have lost a friend through suicide.“I have been lobbying against the draft,against registration. Last week I debatedGeneral Westmoreland on Good MorningAmerica. He spoke at Rutgers Universitylast month and got an ovation for telling anaudience that we could have won the Viet¬nam War if we hadn’t gone soft. I had toclarify the issues, to remind the public of thepossibilities of another war, of another Viet¬nam.“I had to warn Westmoreland that if thepeople were used again as they were then,he and the other generals would be held ac¬countable. By inciting the people into an¬other conflict they are only hurting us Howmany Americans would have to come homein body bags from another Vietnam?“50,000 Americans died for interests otherthan their own. We can have no registration,no draft, no induction without a full evalua¬tion of the consequences.“There will be tremendous rebellion inthis country. A tremendous resistance thatwill make the 1960’s look like a picnic.“When I heard about this award, Icouldn’t believe it. I was infuriated But it ispart of the pattern of what is happening’right now in this country. A definite attemptis being made not only to bring back regis¬tration and the draft, but to rewrite the his¬tory of the Vietnam War.“Through this award and movies like TheDeer Hunter that show the Vietnamese asthe aggressors, there is a major effort bySenators. Congressmen, generals, formergenerals, former Secretaries of State, tomanipulate, incite, intimidate, and cajolethe American public as quickly as possible,as militarily as possible, without reflectionor reason into another war.“1 can speak for a great majority of the people in this country, not just veterans, butmothers and fathers, American familieswho I have spoken to all across the country.They are absolutely furious with the talk ofthe draft. They are not going to stand for it.They are not going to let their children bekilled and wounded again. To have theirboys come home in caskets, body bags, andwheelchairs at 18.“The citizens of this country will resistwith outrage any attempts to kick us into an¬other Vietnam. The 1980's will be a greatbattleground where millions of Americanswill fight to protect their children and theirfamilies. Their responsibility is not in let¬ting their children be sent off to a foreignland for interests other than their own.“The leaders of this university have vasHly underestimated the tremendous outrageat their decision on this award. History willshow that in the spring of 1979, fhe Universi¬ty of Chicago became the Berkely of the1980's, where this protest began one of themost massive movements iri this country.This will be the spark.“This award should be called the PickAward for International Destruction,Devastation, and Cruelty. If Mr. Pick knewabout this aw ard I am sure he'd roll over inhis grave. This award is being given to aman w ho w as one of the biggest purveyorsof violence and war. One of the greatest warcriminals. McNamara is one of the best ex¬amples of the worst this country has to offerin regards to peace.“I think it is a crime and an outrage thathe is being given this aw ard I. as a disabledveteran, as a living victim and testament toMr. McNamara’s illegal, cruel, and immor¬al policies in Viatnam, demand an immedi¬ate apology from President Gray and the se¬lection committee I demand an immediaterenunciation of the award until further dis¬cussion and debate by the faculty, students,and alumni that this committee supposedlyrepresents has found the best choice for thisaward.”Tuesday, May 22, 1979 — The Chicago Maroon — 3Puzzled Letters to the EditorTo the Editor,I continue to be puzzled by the assertionthat McNamara was the ‘'architect” of theVietnam war. This seems greatly toforeshorten history, to exculpate thosewho jointly collaborated to construct thisdisastrous historical enterprise, and to ig¬nore his ultimate role as a dissenter.President Eisenhower and John FosterDulles begun the long and fruitless chain ofintervention by aborting the 1954 GenevaAccords, blocking the nationwide electionsthat would have provided politicallegitimacy to Ho Chi Minh’s military vic¬tory' over the French and assuming ‘‘fullsponsorship of the means of maintaining aviable anti-Communist government belowthe Seventeenth Parallel.” (H. Parmet.Eisenhower, p. 393). It was President JohnF. Kennedy who, before his assassinationon November 22, 1963, had sent 16,000 “ad¬visers” to South Vietnam in the name ofcontainment and counter insurgency. Itwas the Kennedy Administration thatmade the decision to commit troops toSouth Vietnam. (Schurmann, WorldPolitics, pp. 436-441; 442-460.) OnSeptember 12, 1963, President Kennedymade his commitment explicit: “We havea very simple policy in that area...we wantthe war to be won, the Communists to becontained, and the Americans to gohome.” (Hilsman, To Move a Nation, p.506.) NSAM 273 drawn up on November 24,1963, in Honolulu two days after Kennedy’sassassination, makes clear LyndonJohnson’s determination to win the war.(Schurmann, pp. 459-60.) “I am not goingto lose Vietnam...,” he told Henry CabotLodge at that time, “...I am not going to bethe President who saw Southeast Asia gothe way China went.” (Wicker, JFK andLBJ, pp. 205-06.) His tortuous effort tomaintain control of the Air Force andNavy, who wanted to use air power to rollback communism by defeating Hanoi andtaking out China’s nuclear installation atLop Nor, was accomplished in part by us¬ing American ground troops to defeat theVietcong in the South. “If in March (1964),McNamara was the commander handingout grders right and left, by early August,as his Tonkin testimony shows, he wasfrantically trying to counsel restraint asevents moved beyond him...The eventsfrom May 17 to June 15, 1964, set a patternwhich was to be repeated again and againuntil March 31, 1968, when Johnson an¬nounced the bombing halt over North Viet¬nam and quit the presidential race: inresponse to crisis, the hawks (the AirForce and Navy chiefs and commanders)lunged with air strikes, followed bydesperate presidential efforts to bringescalation under control, until a new crisisGood workat the bankTo the Editor:Considering all of the mileage that couldbe gotten from Robert McNamara’s role inViet Nam, it is rather surprising to me thathis critics seem to have focused at leasthalf of their efforts on discrediting theWorld Bank in general and his part in thedevelopment in particular. Since the samekind of rhetoric used to do this seems to bea knee-jerk reaction anytime a subjectcomes up which is in any way related tothe Third World, I have enough faith in theU.C. community to believe that by now,they must have learned to take it with agenerous portion of salt. However, I cannot allow such a generous portion ofmisrepresentations and factual inac¬curacies to pass unchallenged: hence, thisbrief note “to set the record straight,” asthey say.To begin with, the World Bank is not, asMessrs. Black and Hinojosa believe, “aspecialized agency of the United Nations.”It is, rather, an agency owned by itsmember nations (developed and develop¬ing) which performs three major func¬tions: (a) It borrows on the internationalcapital market and then re-lends todeveloping countries at market rates of in¬terest; (b) It accepts contributions from INVOICE # •• 1979PA DATE- MW2FROM-' Rotert HcNanavaTO-' 'Ll. of ChicagoQUANTITY PRICE TOTAL50,000 Vourvo American.Men £ ,SOe» 25,000.002,000,0OO VietnameselAerv ,"\Afonr\ex\ .Children @ .00 ea. .00Vjk'irTOTAL *25,000.00erupted and the pattern repeated itself.”(Schurmann, pp. 486-87).What was McNamara’s relationship toPresident Johnson and through him to thewar? Doris Kearns in her sympatheticbiography of Lyndon Johnson tells us that“when McNamara changed his mind onthe war his shift could be written off formany different reasons — his ‘idealism,’his distaste for blood, his friendship withRobert Kennedy.” (Lyndon Johnson, p.361). Townsend Hoopes describes “thegrowing evidence that McNamara’s powerand influence were in serious decline.Since midsummer (of 1967), his friendsand supporters, who felt him to be the onlymoderate within the inner circle and thusthe one real hope for arresting escalation and gradually winding down the war, hadbeen treated to the embarrassing spec¬tacle of McNamara publicly opposing orexpressing reservations about proposedaction that promptly became officialpolicy.” (Hoopes, Intervention, p. 83.)McNamara’s strict conception of loyalty tothe President meant that his doubts couldnot be expressed publicly. Hoopes reportsthat it was “his firm intention to spare analready beleagured President the addedburden of a public split in the Cabinet” (p.86) but that this thought was at war withthe thought of resignation. His concernsabout the war became known in off therecord talks with certain journalists and“in reports of anguished conversationswith...Robert Kennedy” (p. 86). In August, 1967, in testimony before the Stennis Com¬mittee, most of whose members believedthat the wider, heavier bombing ad¬vocated by the Air Force and Navy, wouldbring military victory and Hanoi to thebargaining table, McNamara argued thatHanoi cannot “be ' bombed to thenegotiating table” (p. 87). The statementhad not been cleared with Rusk or theWhite House. It displeased PresidentJohnson and the Stennis Committee,whose report of august 31 was primarily anattack on McNamara. Within two months,President Johnson (on November 28, 1967)announced to a surprised country that theU.S. government would recommendRobert McNamara to replace GeorgeWood as president of the World Bank eventhough Wood’s term had been extended toDecember 31,1978.Suppose that Sirhan Sirhan had not kill¬ed Robert Kennedy in June, 1968. It seemslikely he would have gone on to win theDemocratic Party’s nomination and thepresidency and that Robert McNamarawould have been his Secretary of State. Inthat case, it also seems likely thatMcNamara would have become the ar¬chitect of the Vietnam peace.Much of a negative kind has been saidabout Robert McNamara’s performanceas president of the World Bank, and aboutthe World Bank’s effect on third worldcountries. These criticisms do not accordwith the World Bank’s role in South Asia inthe 1970’s, since McNamara took over,though they have some merit for the mid¬sixties. India has been the largest singlerecipient of World Bank funds. Since IDA(International Development Agency) wasestablished in 1960 (largely at India’s in¬itiative) India, in keeping with its propor¬tion of third world population, has receivedabout 40 percent of nominal interest (halfof one percent) assistance. This has hadfew of the deleterious effects associatedwith Latin American ties to the capitalistdemocracies. Relatively and absolutely,there is very little foreign investment inIndia; very few multi-national corpora¬tions do business there. Recently, IBM andCoca-Cola were asked to leave becausethey would not agree to India’s terms fordoing business. There is no evidence thatthe World Bank tie has strengthened thehand of multi-nationals. India’s industrialeconomy is dominated by basic and heavyindustries in the public (socialist) sector,contrary to the assertion that the WorldBank insists on capitalist economicorganization. India’s GNP grew almost 6percent in 1977-78. Industrial productiongrew by 8 percent. There are 20 milliontons of food grain in reserve. It has a $6billion foreign exchange surplus. Over thepast four years it has had a near zero rateof inflation. India ranks 10th in world GNPand 8th in industrial production. There areto 5developed nations and then “lends” themoney to developing nations at rates of in¬terest and terms of repayment whichmake the “loan” a gift, essentially; and(c) It functions as one of the largestcenters for the study of developmenteconomics in the world.Now, the World Bank would undoubtedlylike to have sufficient resources madeavailable to enable it to make all of itsloans “soft” (i.e., gifts), but, failing somespontaneous outpouring of altruism on thepart of the developed nations, it is unlikelyto be able to do so any time soon. Thismeans that most of the money it channelsto developing economies has to come fromthe private capital market. No one forces acountry to borrow from the Bank; it doesso because it has a need and is unable toborrow on its own behalf on the capitalmarket (or, at least, unable to borrow onterms as good as the World Bank offers).The logical question is “Why would in¬vestors refuse to lend to these countries onthe basis that they are poor risks, .but thenlend to an intermediary which is going toturn around and lend to these same high-risk countries?” The answer is that theBank has an excellent credit ratingbecause, amazingly enough, it has neverhad a single default. If it were to begin in¬vesting indiscriminately in “uneconomic”projects or in countries which it felt wouldbe unable to make repayment, it wouldlose this credit rating, its sources of fundswould dry up, and developing nationswould have no place to go for their capital needs. It’s that simple. Although it tries toavoid meddling in internal affairs (Blackand Hinojosa seem to be confused aboutthe policies of the Bank and the IMF onthis point.), the criticism is sometimesmade that the Bank is over solicitoustowards it borrowers. Seen in the light ofthe above, however, it is clear that thechoice is not between funds restricted as totheir use and unrestricted funds; withoutthe restrictions there would be no sourcefor any funds at all. The only way aroundthis would be to make more fundsavailable directly from the. developedcountries, which may be very desirable,but is unlikely, and would certainly not bemade more likely by the adoption of thesuggestion that the input of these nationsinto policy decisions be decreased. (Thatthe integrity of the Bank is not compromis¬ed by pressure from the U.S. wasdemonstrated last summer. At a timewhen the U.S. Congress was in a budget¬cutting mood and many Congressmenwere demanding that the U.S. reduce oreliminate its commitment to the WorldBank because it was aiding our“enemies,” the Bank nevertheless made asizable loan to Viet Nam to help it recoverfrom its poor rice harvests.) In the finalanalysis, of course, the question “Is theBank useful to developing countries?” canbest be answered not by armchair specula¬tion, but by observing whether those coun¬tries do indeed choose to use it. Judgingfrom the fact that there is never any shor¬tage of prospective borrowers, the answer must be an unequivocal “yes.”Regarding Mr. McNamara’s specificrole in the Bank, all of the previous writersin this column have failed to mention hispart in the development of the new“social” methodologies of project evalua¬tion, an oversight which I will charitablyascribe to ignorance rather than to anydesire to mislead the readers. These newmethods differ from those previously usedin that they put a premium on redistribu¬tion of income on and on saving, in otherwords, in the process of evaluating thebenefits are valued more highly that ac¬crue to the poor or that generate savings.Clearly, when savings (and thus invest¬ment) is generated domestically, less willneed to be “imported” in the form offoreign investment. It would not seem thata policy which gives priority to projectswhich redistribute income in favor of thepoor and displace foreign investment withdomestic, is the kind of policy whichcreates a “capitalistic ruling class that isparasitically dependent on multinationalsas junior partners.”Regardless of his previous career, Mr.McNamara has performed very well at theWorld Bank; he has had a large part intaking from a relatively impotentorganization primarily designed to helpEurope recover from WW II, turning into apowerful cnstrument of development.These are accomplishments which may beovershadowed by Viet Nam, but shouldnot be ignored.John Nash4 — The Chicago Maroon — Tuesday, May 22, 1979from 4a lot of poor people in India; officially theynumber 240 million of India’s 630 millionpeople. But India’s public philosophy andpolicy agenda give prime attention to the“eradication of poverty” (Indira Gandhi)or the “elimination of Destitution”(Janata Economic Program). Incomedistribution in India over the past twentyyears, contrary to developments in com¬parable countries such as Brazil, and con¬trary to the assertion that World Bank tiesexacerbate inequality, has moved slightly(about one percent) in favor of the bottomquintile at the expense of the top quintile.And India is, in the oft repeated but no lesssignificant phrase, the world’s largestdemocracy. Because India is the WorldBank’s largest and most important client,no judgment about McNamara’s policiesas president of the World Bank can ignorewhat has happened there. Lloyd I.

Sample sentences illustratingthe new vocabulary would include thefollowing. ‘Steve Biko was understood bythe South African police,’ ‘Jim Jonesunderstood his followers,’ ‘Genocide is thesystematic attempt to understand a wholepeople,’ and ‘Robert McNamara has madean outstanding contribution to interna¬tional understanding.’ Brian Barry,Professor of Political Scienceand PhilosophyBaffledTo the Editor:The controversy about whether or notMr. McNamara deserves the Pick awardis baffling to us. Mr. McNamara is surely aman with just the right qualities for theaward. It is important now for the Univer¬sity community to turn its attention to thefuture.By granting the award to McNamara theUniversity sets a precedent and helpsclarify the standards to which future reci¬pients should conform. There are by thesestandard many worthy candidates. Nextyear the University might want to considerthe following three:1.) Mr. Brezhnev has extended further the traditional progressive and peace-loving role of the Soviet Union in world af¬fairs. He has displayed imaginativeleadership in championing basic humanrights and has advanced internationalcooperation in Europe, Africa andelsewhere. We realize of course that Mr.Brezhnev’s role in promoting Soviet-Czechunderstanding in 1968 is still controversialin some circles. We believe however thatthe University could take a post-1968perspective on Brezhnev.2.) Mr. Pinochet has played an impor¬tant role in the international effort to pro¬mote economic and political stability inLation America. He was joined in this taskby organizations with world-wide respon¬sibilities, such as the CIA and ITT.3.) Finally, Mr. Qaddhafi has done muchto increase cooperation and mutualunderstanding among such diverse groupsas the PLO, Italy’s Red Bridgades and theIrish Republican Army. He has also beengenerous in providing economic aid to themost destitute, notably Mr. Idi Amin.We very much hope that our modest pro¬posal will be helpful during deliberationsnext year as the University once againstrives to distinguish itself in mattersmoral and intellectual. David MayersKarol SoltanOutragedTo the Editor:The Spartacus Youth League is outragedthat the University of Chicago is givingRobert McNamara an award for “outstan¬ding contribution to internation understan¬ding.’’ McNamara’s “internationalunderstanding” consists of bombingmillions of Vietnamese workers andpeasants and bleeding underdevelopedcountries dry as head of the World Bank.This reactionary criminal must not beallowed to come on campus!Our proposal for a united-front protestagainst McNamara, which would haveguaranteed the democratic rights of allorganizations who agreed with the slogansthe slogans “No award to Imperialist But¬cher!” and “Keep McNamara Off Cam¬pus!”, was voted down at Tuesday’s plann¬ing meeting. Instead a steering committeedominated by liberals and reformists (halfof whom are supposedly non-organizationally-af filiated individuals)was elected. This committee is not com-mited to guaranteeing the democraticrights of all organizations who wish to par¬ticipate in the protest.While not endorsing the May 22nd Com¬mittee, the SYL will mobilize a contingent for the demonstration around the slogans“No Award to Imperialist Butcher!”“Keep McNamara Off Campus!” and“Ship Him to Vietname to be Tried by hisVictims!” All students, faculty andworkers who support the SYL slogans areinvited to join the contingent.UC Spartacus Youth LeagueStrong objection no.lTo the Editor:We, the undersigned first-year studentsat the Pritzker School of Medicine, wish toexpress our strong objection to the Univer¬sity’s presentation of the Albert Pick. Jr.Award for International Understanding toRobert S. McNamara.Signed by 39 studentsMorgan conflictTo the Editor:I offer the following comments regard¬ing the “McNamara Affair”:1. Mrs. Gray, as we know, is president ofthe University of Chicago. She is also adirector of the Morgan Guaranty TrustCompany of New York and a member ofthe Banking Examining Committee of thatbank.2. As of December 31. 1978. Morgan wasthe fifth largest bank in the United Stateswith total deposits of $28.6 Billion, $14.4Billion of this on deposit outside the UnitedStates.3. Because Morgan is highly active in in¬ternational banking and also trades exten¬sively in government securities, it is verylikely that the company owns a substantialnumber and amount of World Bank bonds(issued over the years on the New York fi¬nancial market).4. Since the Morgan bank's possible hold¬ings of World Bank bonds cannot be veri¬fied from Morgan's SEC filings (which areinsufficiently detailed), it is incumbent onMrs. Gray to show that Morgan, in fact,has no financial relation to the WorldBank.5. Unless she can do so, Mrs. Gray hasinvolved herself in a serious conflict of in¬terest by promoting and standing behindMr. McNamara as the first recipient of theAlbert Pick award. She will be tied toMcNamara as a matter of private interestthrough the Morgan bank at the same timeas she stands behind his selection “impar¬tially” in the name of the university. I sug¬gest that the only honest course of actionfor Mrs. Gray in this circumstance is to disclose any possible holdings in WorldBank bonds by the Morgan bank, and ifsuch holdings do exist, to resolve the con¬flict of interest promptly.

I for one welcomed theprotest by the women as a protest longoverdue in relationship to Walpurgisnachtand as an appropriate symbolic responseto the recent lack of serious attention givenby the Administration to more “sober”discussions of the University's responsibil¬ity for Rape-prevention in this community.Admittedly this year's Walpurgisnacht de-emphasized the act of “deflowering thevirgin" as it has been presented in pre¬vious years (but the women involved in theprotest had not been informed of thisnewest interpretation of the myth) and Iwould hope that it represents a step in theright direction toward a more balanced“fertility” interpretation in the futurewhere the fun can be shared by all at theexpense of no one — male or femaleJulie A.

McNamara’s work in theWorld Bank is seen by members of the no¬minating committee as disconnected fromhis role in Vietnam.McNamara was appointed to the WorldBank by Lyndon Johnson in 1968. Follow¬ing concentration in the 1950’s on infras¬tructure projects — nonproductive in¬vestments providing roads, power plantsand irrigation. The World Bank had begunfinancing agricultural and educationalprojects in the early 1960’s. McNamaraimmediately saw this effort as inadequate.Despite high growth rates in the ThirdWorld during the 1960’s, said McNamara,“the growth is not equitable reaching thepoor.”During McNamara’s tenure the amountsof loans have increased eight-fold and thesize of the bank staff has more than dou¬bled. In addition, according to McNamara,“there has been a sharp increase in theemphasis we are placing on direct attackson poverty throughout the developingworld.”Under McNamara’s leadership, theWorld Bank has shifted its concentrationof loans to the poorest countries of theThird World and to agricultural develop¬ment rather than creating a base for indus¬trial development, in contrast to the pre¬vious approach. This reflects McNamara’sexperience with Vietnam, and the need tocontrol areas of potential guerilla warfare.McNamara has noted “the connection be¬tween world poverty and unstable rela¬tions among nations” in his book The Es¬sence of Security.Agricultural development by the WorldBank still includes a large component ofinfrastructure projects. While becomingthe largest lender for agricultural develop¬ment in the world, 65 to 70 percent of itsloans are still infrastructure projects.“Clergy and Laity Concerned” issued astatement about the World Bank in 1977,saying they “have become concernedabout the inordinate amount of interna¬tional loans directed toward balance ofpayment problems, infrastructure, andprivate industry, rather than toward proj¬ects for needy people."According to McNamara, “The povertyproblem revolves primarily around thelow productivity of millions of small sub¬sistence farms.” The World Bank finds thecauses of poverty in “limited access to nat¬ural resources, technology and services,and because the institutions which wouldsustain a higher level of productivity are lacking.” Without concern for the historybehind developments of cultural order orto incipient socioeconomic class divisions,the Bank “targets” certain regions thathave potential to be transformed into richproducers of crops for the national and in¬ternational markets. The Bank entersthese areas with loan projects involving avariety of overt transformations of landownership forms, along with investmentsin capital-intensive projects, making useof the technological revolution in agricul¬ture known as the “Green Revolution.”Land reform has been called for by oppo¬nents of World Bank policies to increasepeasant productivity by returning landthat had been appropriated for largefarms. The “land reform” advocated byMcNamara aims at “redistribution ofland, improvement in the security of thetenant, and consolidation of small hold¬ings.” Such reforms introduce privateproperty and break down tradition socialorganization. Eventually they displacetenants and hand land and labor suppliesto large agribusinesses.Coercive measuresIn areas where the inhabitants cannot beenticed into the market by introducing im¬ported consumer goods, less voluntaryovert transformational methods have beenused as forced migration, forced cultiva¬tion, unpaid labor extracted as a tax andmoney taxes. Choice land is acquired forlarge agribusinesses by governmentthrough their powers of eminent domain,and the people who have been cultivatingcrops or pasturing animals are evicted orfenced out of the area to be developed,usually ending up in urban slums or work¬ing for the owners of their former land.In Indonesia, homeless people weretransported to a “transmigration” projecton the distant island of Sulawesi, where theland is too poor to farm and the settlementinfrastructure is lacking. In Malawi, inSouthern Africa, a “land reform” was in¬stituted to transform the traditional semi-communal tenure system into registrationof individual ownership. This impositionon the socio-cultural order made land mar¬ketable, with an outcome similar to Mexi¬co in the 19th century, leading to massiveaccumulation bv an elite few.The “improvement” approach, on theother hand, accepts the land tenure systemas it is found. Here, according to the WorldBank, “rural development is concernedwith the modernization and monetariza-tion of rural society, and with its transitionfrom traditional isolation to integrationwith the national economy” and the inter¬national economy. The “Green Revolu¬tion” is introduced by a new technologicalpackage that includes improved grainvarieties, fertilizers, irrigation systems,tractors, and road infrastructure to con¬nect the country with the cities. Once thepeasant accepts these imported sup¬plies, he must sell part of his crop for cashin order to pay back loans and to be able tobuy next year’s supplies. This creates a de- vestment feasible to farmers, high supportprices are used that keep consumer pricesup and encourage surplus accumulation,reducing popular benefits. And due to thehost nation’s large debt burden, the sub¬sidies are hard to maintain and are oftendropped.Regions selected for World Bank proj¬ects all have histories of growing inequali¬ties. The general effect of the Green Revo¬lution is that it widens income inequalities,not only between regions but betweenlarge, medium, and small growers. InGuatemala this was a direct result of de¬signating half of the loans to "small farm¬ers,” who made up 97 percent of the farm¬ers, while the other half would go to thethree percent of medium and large farm¬ers. Profit differentials make it easy forthe advantaged farmer to buy up land andproletarize the peasantry. But since thetechnical methods are capital-intensive,one result is labor displacement, creatinga reserve army of the unemployed in ruraland urban areas.In Mexico, where the Rockefeller Foun¬dation-initiated “Green Revolution” wasbegun, thousands of landless peasants inOaxaca and in the northwest have tried totake back the lands they lost to agribusi¬ness specialized in food products for ex¬port. Military repression has been usedthere to restore the established order.Such World Bank projects incur largedebt burdens for the host nations and in¬crease necessary capital and laborinputs.Along with causing peasant pauperiza¬tion. the intense development of large-scale capitalist agriculture has beenblamed for spreading malnutrition by in¬tensifying labor while cutting wages andraising food prices.Scientifically developed strains requir¬ing irrigation and suited for export, whichreplace those strains indigenous to the re¬gion is upset, pesticides are introduced,and greater financial insecurity is shoul¬dered by the farmer.Political prejudicesOne critic specialized in Latin American history states, “If you follow World Bankmoney down through the distributing insti¬tutions, in all countries it is going to thewrong people.” It has become well estab¬lished that the purpose of creating a capi¬talist class in the countryside is to prop upthe recipient government’s oligarchy andto “interdependize” that government po¬litically and economically to the majorlender’s economic network.It is also becoming clear that the Bank’sdecisions on loans have a basis in politicaldiscrimination, to the extent of being usedfor policy ends of particular countries, inspite of McNamara’s and the Bank’s posi¬tions that “the Bank canot be guided in itsdecisions by political considerations. . .and is required not to interfere in the do¬mestic politics of member nations.” Thecase of Chile is an outstanding example.Although neither the Articles of Agree¬ment nor the Resolutions of the Board ofGovernors mention nationalization theBank rejected Chile, a founding memberof the Bank, as a recipient of further loansdue to its “conflict with other membercountries on account of nationalizaion.”The refusal to approve the loan requestedby Allende, although he was paying backprevious loans, was making Chile a net ex¬porter of capital to the World Bank WhenPinochet seized power, the World Bankrushed through loans to his government. Inresponse to criticism for extending creditto Pinochet, McNamara said “we have notallowed our lending policy to be deter¬mined by civil rights violations in leftist orrightist governments.”CongressCongressional action cut off WorldBank loans to Pinochet two years agoCriticism from Congressmen andothers has led the Bank to find less visibleavenues for its policies. It directs an exten¬sive network of international operations,including regional development banks andfunds, commercial banks, and UN specia¬lized agencies. There is no public controlover the Bank and its affiliates andassociates.The UN General Assembly resolutioncaling for a “New International EconomicOrder,” adopted in 1974 with unanimousaproval by Third World and socialist coun¬tries, has been svstematicaly violated bythe World Bank. Among its principles are“the right of any country to adopt the so¬cial and economic programs which theyconsider most appropriate for their devel¬opment; the sovereign control by eachstate of its natural resources, including theright of nationalization; the equal partici¬pation of all nations in the solutions to alle¬viate world development programs; andthe halt of all economic, political, or anyother sort of coercion to impede the exer¬cise of these rights.”McNamara's stubborn and insensitiveapproach to a continued capitalist and im¬perialist domination over movements forsocial change and self-determination is theone thing that has not changed since 1968.Political Science Undergraduatej Advisory Committee jl presents Et CeteraRoberta and Albert Wohlstetter jon T Free Outdoor Concert“SALT TREATY II”*m featuringThursday, May 24 §L The Inductors • Bandersnatch\ Reynolds Club Lounge Trouble Boys • Radio Free Illinois8P.M.Admission is Free • Arson • Nick Filippo & Mark Daniels1 SUN..

It will also allow tenantsaccess to court records.The 49 individual Petitions for Interven¬tion were filed after negotiations in courttwo weeks ago made it clear that the Ten¬ants Association would not be allowed toenter the case on behalf of the tenants.Lustbader & Co. is currently charged with64 code violations in the building. MatthewWalsh, attorney for the defense, said Thurs¬day that over half the alleged violations have already been corrected. He said thebuilding management is cooperating withthe tenants and with the City building de¬partment to correct problems listed in thesuit as well as problems uncovered by in¬spections subsequent to those conducted byCity building inspectors two weeks dgo.The six tenants at Thursday’s hearing dis¬puted Walsh’s statement and said it is likelymore violations will be added to the suitMay 30 when the next hearing will takeplace. Walsh said if new charges are filed hewill ask for a 28-day continuance to allowhim to prepare a response to the charges.The case is scheduled to be argued May 30at 2 pm in the Daley Center. A Tenants Asso¬ciation representative said Walsh will prob¬ably not be granted further continuancesbut will have to respond to the 64 code viola¬tions at the May 30 hearing.The case has been in court since March 12and has been continued four times.Housing lottery startsBy Paul BrennanStudents will compete for placement inUniversity housing for the 1979-80 academicyear in next week’s housing lottery.Students have the choice of reserving theirold rooms, competing for another room, orBOARD CONTRACT RATES20-Meal ContractMeal Coupons CurrentRate1,350170 1979-80Rate1,455180moving out of the housing system.According to Director of Student HousingEdward Turkington. “The lottery is thefairest and the simplest method I know of.Our system provides the most satisfactoryresults for the greatest number of students.Our lottery philosophy, if you will, is thatpeople who wish to remain in their presenthouse should have that privilege.” Turk¬ington cited Northwestern as an example ofthe drawbacks of other systems. There, ac¬cording to Turkington, freshmen havepriority and older students are notguaranteed a place in housing.An increase in undergraduate enrollmentnext year may put a strain on existingfacilities, but the University is not certain ofhow many people will be applying for spacesin housing. Turkington said, “We are work¬ing on the assumption that we have enoughspace for entering students.” Some new space will be provided upon the completionof plumbing renovation in the Shoreland,which will open up new rooms. Other thanthe opening of these rooms, no new space isavailable.Most housing contracts will cost over 14percent more for the 79-80 academic yearthan they did for the 78-79 year. This in¬crease is attributed to inflation and theUniversity’s increased expenses.The only change in the current housestructure next year will be the opening of atenth house in the Shoreland. The new housewill be named Michelson and will consist ofall the students on the 6th floor. It will pro¬bably develop into an undergraduate house.Turkington anticipates no major changesin security procedure in student housingnext year. He said, “We have it under con¬trol. Security is a problem which requiresconstant attention. I’d say we are dealingresonably satisfactorily with it.” Professors James redfield and John Caweltl participated in a panel discussion on culturalchanges during the Sixties as a part of last weekend’s alumni reunionAlumni awardedBy Jacob LevineNearly 500 alumni gathered in HutchinsonCommons Saturday for the Alumni Associa¬tion’s Reunion Luncheon and Awards Asse¬mbly, highlighting Reunion weekend.Gilbert White, who received his bache¬lors, masters, and doctorate degrees fromthe University, was given the Association’sAlumni Medal, its highest award, for ex¬traordinary distinction in a field of speciali¬zation and extraordinary service to society.White was a member of the geography de¬partment from 1956 to 1969.The Association also gave Public ServiceCitations to Edward Bates, Egbert Fell, Frank Greenberg.

Another meeting, scheduled for thisFriday between women’s union and SECC,will cover the specifics of what informationis studied and how it will be evaluated.Women’s union representatives are inter¬ested in discovering if patterns of crimeexist in the community, by time of day orplace. They consider the information re¬leased by the SECC inadequate, and want tohave more detailed breakdow ns released ona regular basis.Levi said at the meeting Friday that theSECC has conducted such studies in the pastand that no particular pattern was discov¬ ered. He will release a copy of the most re¬cent study, completed in the early 1970's, atthe meeting Friday.Protecting the identity of a victim, espe¬cially in a personal crime such as rape, isone of Levi's top priorities, he said. Avoid¬ing giving clues to possible suspects is an¬other reason for SECC’s reluctance to re¬lease their crime information.The Chicago Police Department releasesa daily crime log to the SECC listing majorcrimes reported for that day, by time, place,and with names of both victims and arrestedsuspects.Watch for notice of pick-up locations the first Wednesday of every month RememberYou don’t have to remove labels frombottles and jarsYou don’t have to crush cansYou do need to separate metal, glassand paperYou do need to contain recyclables inbundles, bags or boxesParticipateRecycle for a cleaner environmentTHE RESOURCECENTER6100 S.

Allen Drury’s sprawlingnovel of Washington politics is stylishlyacted by a great cast, including HenryFonda, Charles Laughton, Walter Pidgeon,Franchot Tone and Lew Ayres. Laughtonunscrupulously uses Fonda’s leftist Univer¬sity of Chicago background against him inthis engrossing, lucidly filmed examinationof the seamy side of democracy. Advise andConsent is one of Preminger’s most access¬ible and entertaining films. Highly recom¬mended. Tuesday at 7 pm in Cobb Hall.A Royal Scandal (Doc) Directed by OttoPreminger and Ernst Lubitsch. Catherinethe Great (Tallulah Bankhead) promotesher favorite soldier (William Eythe) to highrank. Bankhead was one of the stage's greatactresses, but her up-front sexuality andflapper humor never successfully trans-ieneu io uie screen. Unseen by this review¬er. Tuesday at 9:30 pm in Cobb Hall.One Way Street (Doc) Directed by HugoFregonese. One of Doc’s recent discoveriesis the obscure Argentinian director HugoFregonese, who produced his best work inHollywood in the 1950’s. His economical^abrupt visual narrative makes him an ex¬cellent exponent of American violence. OneWav Street is the story of a doctor (JamesMason) involved in robbery (no, notover-charging his patients) who tries to gostraight.

Pabst.Pabst’s overtly psychological approach tofilmmaking gave him what was charming'ycalled at the time an “X-ray eye camera.”Perhaps most interesting is the specta¬cular performance by the mysterious andtalented Louise Brooks, who has achieved acult following as one of the world’s great ac¬tresses. In what is generally conceded to bePabst’s best film, Brooks is in love with a10 — The Chicago Maroon — Tuesday, May 22, 1979man (Fritz Korner) engaged to the daughterof a Minister of Interior. The triangleevolves into marriage, murder and prostitu¬tion. A silent masterpiece. Recommended.Thursday at 7:15 in Cobb Hall.East of Eden (LSF) Directed by EliaKazan. James Dean gave his first majorscreen performance (and his best) in thisclassic film version of John Steinbeck’snovel of the same name. Dean’s mature fa¬talism and world-weariness must have beeneven more striking to complacent 1950’s au¬diences than it is today. Who knows whatDean would have accomplished if he hadlived?
