Studbnt reps blow ,funds Close to $400 of student council funds was wasted last Thursday when two federation delegates walked out of a National Union of Students confere&e. . Student reps Douglas’Thompson and Shelley Trupp decided after 14 hours that the five-day NUS meeting beginning last Wednesday in Winnipeg wasn’t for them. So they swiftly packed their bags and scurried away-from the conference toward Waterloo early Thursday morning. . ’ ,And their expenses amounted to nearly $400 when transit fares to the airport and train station are included. Thompson caught the train’ to Winnipeg and flew back while Trupp travelled by air both ways. Once in Waterloo, they explained their actions to federation president Shane Roberts and Thompson was persuaded to return together with Roberts to the conference.
/
They-said the conference was marred by provincial chauvinism which hampered the chances of NUS to reach a consensus on national priorities. Thompson said in an interview with tlie chevron that this chauvinism manifested itself as a “grudge against the existence of Ontario which some delegates considered a weal thy province. ” He also said he wasn’t “favorably impressed” with the other de-legates when he and Trupp talked to them before the conference began. And both he and Trupp perceived that the “prime motivation amohg delegates seemed to be to have a good party at their students’ expense.” Thqmpsoh, therefore, wanted to save the $600 paid in delegate fees by pulling. out of the conference. However, he was overruled by Roberts who convinced him to re-

nors by those whostudy in, work in \ , or live near the -university. Because planning and develdp~ ment decisions are not made democratically, a “full and open consultation process” is needed, the re_ port says. The federation wishes to have a greater, on-going relationship with the province and a larger degree of control over internal decisions. \ It calls for increased participation of the labour movement and _ “true” comm,unity representation on boards and advisory committees. “The lack, or token appearance, of. such people is incomprehensible. . . Quite sim; ply, those who pay are poorly represented.” The report anticipates that guidelines on foreign students will be released, introducing differential tuition fees and, possibly, quotas (tuition fees for foreign students have since tripled). The federation promises to strongly protest such action, viewing it as an abdication of responsibility on the part of the province. “In an affluent province suchas our own, one w.hich has drawn heavily upon the resovrces of other advanced, developed countries for knowledge, this form of selfinterest is abhorrent.” The report also calls the attention of the province t? its responsibility in the field of research and development. “Despite our wealth, this country remains a net importer of new ’ knowledge in virtually every field.” Good- Canadian academics must be trained and Canada must use its wealth to encourage the development ,of a vital and productive research community, the report coneludes . 4ionyx

Ficus Benjamin is probably the most popular for an actual tree effect because of its narrow dark green leaves and slightly weeping habit.

Univeisity UW is seeking funds to provide n&-e buildings on campus. The ipace is needed because temporary )ff-campus facilities now leased to accommodate certain academic )rograms are considered unsatis‘ac tory. Also UW feels the Ontario govzrnment should pay for the tem3orary space which the university las to rent. The government now pays for construction costs of approved permanent buildings. But UW has told a government advisory council
n-eeds more buildings
that the government should pay for temporary leased buildings, as the government’s own formula shows that Uy needs the space. UW notes that the university has about 168,000 square feet of space less than it is entitled to under the formula, and that at least lQO,OOO square feet of this is required to accommodate adequately current programs and enrolment. _ The shortage of space is likely to continpe and to worsen, says the administration, since UW enrol-
‘ment, unlike that of other Ontario universities, is not expected to fall off over the next two decades. In fact, enrolment at UW is expected to remain at, or- slightly above, its present level well into the 1990’s. This projection was contained in a UW submission on long range planning-and capital assistance, which was presented to the Ontario Council on University Affairs last weekend in Toronto. Similar briefs from other universities and from
the Council of Ontario Universities were also presented at the meeting. A major feature of the UW brief -was the administration’s argument that enrolment on this campus will follow acdifferent trend from that predicted for the provincial university system as a whole. OCUA had projected that the universities’ would fairly soon face the “tail-end” of a bulge of entrants; the bulge would bring about heavier enrolments for a few years (perhaps to the early 1980’s) and then there would be a substantizl decline. . However, the UW brief argues that trends in the system as a whole “do not necessarily apply to Waterloo, either in terms of possible enrolments or in terms of regional population growth.” In‘support of this position, thebriqf notes that for each of the past four years, more than 11.5 per cent of U W’s total undergrad enrolment has come from the “exurban counties” of Wellington, Peel, Halton, and Ontario. Enrolment from that source has kept pace with the over-

UW-r to, plan *<nextI-0 yeah In aietter to all department heads and Faculty deans, Brzustowiki says the cbmmittee can’t by itself, initiate the plans which- involve academic objectives. “Such plans must originate with fhe people who are going to implement them.” -However, the committee must coordinate the goals of the academic groups and set priorities as the university plan “cannot be just a loose collection of the ashirations of the individual units. “These- aspirations must be fitted together, interactions must be identified and priorities assigned .” The vice-president says the plan he has in .mind goes “far beyond enrolment predictions.” Brzustowski &ys he’s interested in possible means to bring young faculty members into the university, “even in the absence of expansion?
He’s also interested in what- is the best distribution of space in the university for the depdrtments. And the vice-president wants ideas on this matter which are “possibly distinct” from the present situation. Other topics for discussion include: -the quality and academic Stan-dards af present teaching and research, and any changes in them; -proposed academic developments, whether in curriculum of pedagogy; . -mechanisms by which the departments will- keep up with new developments in their disciplines, whether in teaching - and research; and -the strategy to be fol.lowed by the departments and the Faculties in response to the freeze on graduate funding. -john

A few examples are mushrooms at $.59/lb., %auliflower at $.45/bead-, brocolli at $.45/hunch and pineapples for $.60. , The new co-op operates on a weekly basis making budgets,-meal planning and shopping much easier.

all moderate increase in enrolment at UW during that period. In addition, the univergty continues to draw alniost 20 per cerit of its undergrads from the City and Region of Waterloo. The brief says that both these areas show projected population growths per five-year period through to 2001 ranging from 10 per cent to 20 per cent. The administration believes it’s reasonable to assume- that with UW’s leadership in co-op education, and vyith its specialized programs, it will continue to share in what it calis “the undergraduate enrolment market” as it has done in ,the past. Moreover, it feels that the co-op concept is one of the factors which directly influence students’ choice of universities, and that with continuing expansion of co-op ‘into every faculty, Waterloo might well attract more students because of these co-op offerings than general provincial enrolment trends might indicate. -adrian

Believe it or not, the University of Waterloo is about to enter its third decade and priorities need to be determined. And, UW vi&resident Tom Brzustowski is inviting all the Faculties and departments to discuss their goals for 1977-1987 with the senate long-range planning committee. He told senate Monday that he plans to meet with reps from all six Faculties and 33 departments to give detailed instructions about what to include in their reports. Student federation president Shane Roberts told senators the project is both “an ambitious and kxciting undertaking,” and hoped the committee -would get all the co-operation it needs.

Transfusion Latin American students at UW have called on Noranda Mines not to go ahead witk a projected $350-million investment in Chilean copper. They feel the move would be of major benefit to the August0 Pinoc het regime. The Latin American Student Association says in a letter to Noranda president Alfred PowiS, that the proposed investme.nts would directly serve, materially as well as morally, the inte?&s of “a government which has covered the cduntry with blood.” LASA says in--the three years since the overthrow of the legiti, mate Chilean government and the assassination of president Salvador Allende, the condition of the Chilean people has been increasingly ‘worsening under the dictatorship of the military junta. * The letter says the junta has used
opposed I foreign -aid and investments for military equipment, concentration camp facilities, control of mass media commtinications, and for the development of torture techniques and the general apparatus of repression. It points out that individuals as well as international institutions of varied activities and philosophies, but sharing a humanitarian and democratic spirit, have continuously condemned the junta’s terror prodecures. Among such organizations the letter mentions the Christian c hurt hes , several Human Rights Commissions, and the United Na-, tions general assembly. The EASA letter ends by calling on Noranda to reverse its earlier agreements and prevent the Chilean junta from receiving the massive investment. -adrian

After the demise of the ‘Canadian Union of Students in 1969, a truly national student organization was merely a dream. In 1972, the National Union of Students was born with the goal of providing a structure for the pursuit of the goals of student unionism on -a national scale. Having struggled along with meagre support these four years, NUS has suddenly found itself in a position of some strength. Nearly 30 student councils representing 150,000 students are now members of NUS, each council contributing $1 .OO per head giving NUS an annual budget of $150,000.

may 21, 1976
saw _i
Thtb sane are mad I
The sane are mad and the mad, for that matter, are crazy too -sex-crazy, that is-in What The Butler Saw, the bold, first offering from the Waterloo Summer Theatre Company. This sex-and-psychiatry farce by the late Joe Orton opened last Thursday to a large and-receptive audience in the UW Theatre of the Arts. Under the direction of theatre student Rick Armstrong, it was an -energetic performance marred mainly by the failure of some actors to speak their lines loudly, clearly and slowly enough. It was essential to do so, ‘since much of the humor was dependent on the verbal wit and elegant language of the characters. The playwright didn’t do them any favors, either, with- lines like: “She’s an example of inbreeding among the lobeliagrowing classes,” and “-These hellish white homuncules must be put out of their misery.”

the chevrdn
2 1, 1976
Beg your \ pardon I would like to apologize to the chevron and to the AIA for claims I madelast week in my-letter to the chevron. Of the “14 articles and letters” I mentioned, many can’t be directly attributed to the AIA, although socialistic in nature. The point I was making is that the chevron has (and has had for some time) a very political and socialistic theme in its articles, and this should be changed. If students (as I do) would rather read about topics more relevant to them than worker strikes or wage control denouncements, then they’ll have to start writing them. Let’s make the chevron our paper! Rob Tibshirani 2B Math
-Chile and Israel - -\ This is in response to Owen Leibman’s two letters in the Chevron (‘Chevron & UN linked”, “Tunnel Vision”, May 7th). The first letter shows Leibman’s ludicrous logic in assuming that because there has been nothing in the chevron about Chile that both the AIA and the chevron support the Chilean junta. Well let me point out to you some things about,Chile. Chile today is under a most oppressive fascist dictatorship-of the Israeli type. Owen, you really let me down, I thought you were a much more avid Zionist than that; every Zionist must realize that the same force that has brought this on to the Chilean people is one of the major forces that keeps Israel going (and South Africa, and Rhodesia, and Iran etc., with which Israel ha< excellent relations)-namely U. S . ,Imerialism. As for Israel’s role in Chile, you should know that it was one of the first nations to recognize the junta and I also recommend you read Allende’s statements in support of the Pales tinian people. As for Arab oil interests, that is another issue. We are talking about Zionism and I would support any action taken by any Arab country for the defeat of this racist system. Your other letter is a gross distortion of
what I said .‘Of course Hamany is an outright racist. What I said it that it “exposes the racist ideas pushed by the Zionists”. I was referring to Mark Buck’s usage of the statement that “lying is a widespread habit among the Arabs and they have a low The difference Owen is idea of the truth.” that you call this man, Hamany, “a noted Arab philosopher”, and I call him an outright racist. That is the essential difference betw-een our arguments. _
Salah
Bachir.
Zionism -denounced Owen Leibman introduces more distortions and mystifications in his letter on Zionism (May 7th). Letus look at his reply to my reply. Point one: Since there is no answer to my reply on the question of peace then you must agree with Ben Gurion that Israel should expand from the Nile to the Euphrates, and you must also agree with Golda Meir that Palestinians do not exist. So this is your stand on peace? Point two: Leibman says he rejects the idea that Britain had “no legal right to Palestine”. Then-you must also accept the idea that the U.S. had a right to be in Indochina, Britain had a right to justify “ownership” of Rhodesia and Russia to be in Angola. For this would be in keeping with your racist ideology and for your support of foreign domination! Point three: The UN committee did. not mclude any of the “Big Powers”, that’s true, but you ignore the quote from Forrestal, a member of Truman’s cabinet, who described the incident as “bordering on scandal” in describing American influence (The Forrestal Diaries, W. Milles. ed., NY. Viking Press, p. 363, quoted in Zionism is Racism, p.5). Zionist propaganda continuously praised the U.S. in its role for the founding and maintanance of Israel. Better brush up on this one! Point four: Leibman claims he agrees with Count Bernadotte (a UN mediator assassinated by the Zionists) then you must agree with his statement made in 1949 that “it would be an offence against the principles of elemental justice if these innocent victims of the conflict were denied the right to return to their homes while Jewish immigrants flow into Palestine, and indeed, at least offer the threat of permanent replacement of the Arab refugees who have been rooted in

the land for centuries. ” (Zionism is Racism, p.6) No avid Zionist has ever defended this -_ report. Point five: On Zionism and anti-Semitism. Contrary to the Zionist ideal, I do not believe that “racism is eternal and natural”. On the contrary, I believe that the state picks out different groupsfor attack at different times as witnessed today by the attacks on the East Indian community in Canada and by such attacks as the Green Paper. Zionist propaganda is fanned world wide against the “Arabs who wouldn’t let them live in peace”. I point out to our racist the great example of the People’s Republic of China where many national minorities live together without any racial hatred. On the point of Zionism and anti Semitism which both state that “Jews should get out of their home countries and go to Israel” I have offered numerous quotes of Zionists applying this principle which you have yet to refute. And yes Owen, Hitler used this line and the Zionists and Russia also use this line today to blame the jewish people as scapegoats. I hold as great examples those who fought against such facist attacks in their own countries like those heroic Jews who resisted in Warsaw, contrary to Zionist propaganda under Hitler. Point six: On the collaboration between -Zionists and Nazis. Leibman only says that the Zionist\ Kastner was acquitted in the Zionist courts! The quotes of collaboration between “Eichman and various Zionist leaders’? (April 17, 1961, Newsweek, quoted in Zionism is Racism, p.36) go unchallenged. As for the trial of Kastner itself, I. offer Leibman the following. The trial was conducted before the Israeli Supreme- Court (5 loyal Zionists of course) and of course he was acquitted. But one of the judges, Moshe Silberg wrote: we can sum up with these three facts: a) that the Nazis didn’t want to have a great revolt-second Warsaw-or small revolts, and their passion was to have the extermin?&on machine working-smoothly without resistance. This fact was known to Kastner from the best source-from, Eichman (gestabo chieftan) himself. b) that the most efficient means to paralyse the resistance will or the escape of a victim is to conceal from him the plot of the coming murder. . . . c) that he, Kastner, in order to carry out the rescue plea for the prominent
7 -__._
(Zionists), fulilled knowingly and without good faith the said desire of the Nazis, thus expediting the work of ex-
terminating the masses. And also the rescue of Becher (Nazi Colonel and liaison officer between Hitler and Himmler, the Gastapo Chief). He who is capable of rescuing this Becher from hanging proves that the atrocities of this great war criminal were not so horrifying or despicable in his eyes. .;I couldn’t base the main _ guilt of Kastner on this fact had it been alone, but when it attached even from afar to the whole scene of events it throws retroactive light on the whole affair.. .(Zionism is Racism, p.37) ’ In the trial in the district court Kastner testified “that the Jewish Agency and the Joint Distribution Committee representative in Switzerland...did not give out information to the press about the mass killings. They failed to give the press the news.. .I informed them daily by cables about the pace of extermination.“(Zionism is Racism, p.37) The chief of the “rescue department” of the Jewish Agency during the war told the Zionist executive council on 18/2/1943 the following: “When they asked me, couldn’t you give money out of United Jewish Appeal funds for the rescue of Jews in Europe, I said no,...In my opinion one should resist this ‘wave which pushes the Zionist activities to secondary importance.” (The Days‘ of Holocaust
and Destruction,
1946).
“Having turnedtheir back on the doomed Jews”-commented in 1961 the Zionist author Ben Hecht in his book Perfidy on p.50-“the same leaders later utilised the . extermination for raising millions and millions and for collecting billions in reparations from the Germans.” (Zionism is Racism,p.%)
There are other points.that Leibman does not answer such as Israel’s initiation of the four wars of aggression. He still calls Israel a democracy while oppression of the Palestinians intensifies on the West Bank. It would be very good for you to answer some of the points; I thoroughly enjoy clearing up your muddled thoughts. I would also recommend you not pass judgment on something that you have not read. The pamphlet Zionism is Racism is available from National Publications Centre, Box 727 Adelaide Stn. Toronto for $1.25. It would do you good to read something other than Hans Christian Anderson and Golda Meir. ’ Salah
