Pace Eight' THE MICHIGAN DAILY Wednesday, December 2, 1970 ~iah THEMICHGAN AIL Israeli pacifist calls Mideast war 'racist' By GERI SPRUNG An Israeli pacifist touring the United States spoke Mon- day night in the Nat. Sci. Aud. and condemned the Israeli and Arab governments and the Palestinian movements for following what he called "racist" policies. . Speaking before about 100 people, Uri David, one of the five per cent of the Israeli population which opposes the gov- ernment's policies, called for free imigration and flexible borders to solve the conflict in the Middle East. David said he is opposed to war because it is a method of subjugating one people under another's domination. He added that he champions the cause of self-determination for all "oppressed" peoples. He says he is opposed to the Zionist ideology because, he explains, it aims for "Jewish domination over a bit of terri- AFSCME disputes meaning of contract Fonda hits 'repress ion' (Continued from Page 1) tranquilizers, and plastic vials of capsules in her possession. The vials, which police believe may contain illegal drugs, were sent to Chicago for analysis and Fonda was released on $5,500 ball. "The c .p'capsules are organic' health-food vitamins," she said last night, "and the other pills are medicine that was prescribed for me in the states." Fonda claimed her arrest resulted from her recent political activities. "I was a political prisoner," she said, describing her 10-hour stay in a county jail. "Our jails are filled with political prisoners." "They are victims of our capi- talist society," she told the audi- ence, "and the only thing that can free them is you." "The time has come when we must face what is happening in our country," she added. "We are no longer a constitional democ- racy, we can no longer remain neutral." "We must address ourselves to ways in which we can effect, change," she continued, "the breakdown of constitutional de- mocracy demands a new consti- tutional order." Fonda called for the establish- ment of a socialist economic struc-, ture and for the removal of American military and corporate presence from abroad, stating "we must start to live our politics, we' must recognize our power." Rory." This, he says, implies "racism" by limiting the free immigration of non-Jews. He charges that the Palistinians have fallen into "the same pit as the Zionists." They too, he says, follow a .racist ideology that de- mands .Palestinian . domination over Palestine. The solution, he suggests, can only be found when one "dissoci- ates oneself with any national ideology: that implies a certain area being under any one domin- ion." The result will be "a state with changing borders, changing with the desires of the people who live there." He said this could also apply to the situation in Quebec, saying that ,the Canadians should allow the French-speaking province to se.cede, if the people desire inde- pendence. Raoul Koppelman, an Israeli teaching at the University, re- sponded to David, saying his "ideas are noble" but were not realistic. He stated that the situation was not as symmetrical as concerns Arab and Jewish nationalism as David had implied. Except for a very small minority, he said, "all Arab movements intend to kill EJewish civilians after victory" and outwardly claim this as their goal. However, he added, even the most reactionary Israeli movement is ' willing to give the Arabs minor-, ity rights. Peter Blood, an American paci- fist, -also responded to D a v i d. Though not relating his talk to the Middle East situation, Blood stated that if someone is going to oppose an existing governmental structure, he should refuse all forms of government support, in- cluding not paying taxes and not providing manpower. (Continued from Page 1) During the contract negotia- tions, the union hopes to improve the present system of filing griev- ances. The current process stip- ulates that an employe with a grievance must first notify his supervisor of his complaint. If the answer he receives is not satisfactory, he must stibmit aI written grievancesto his depart- ment head. The decision on the grievance can then be appealed if necessary through the University Review' Committee, headed by Thiry. HEWarticle disputed (Continued from Page 1) According to HEW spokesman Don Scott, certain technical legal difficulties remain to be worked out before HEW can submit a de- tailed response. Until the University administra- tion submits a plan acceptable to HEW, all federal contracts to the University are being withheld. At the MVonday night meeting, the OSS policy board requested that the University make public the HEW report and its plan for action drafted in response to that report. Although the University has re- fused to disclose the specific na- ture of the HEW charges, Science magazine reported their substance two weeks ago. President Fleming said at that time the Science re- port was "essentially accurate" ex- cepting the charge that the Uni- versity has spread the demands to other universities in hopes of re- sisting HEW's demands. He has refused further comment. The HEW demands, as Science describes them, include: -The achievement of e q u a 1 salaries for men and women in the same job categories; -The payment of back wages to each female employe who h a s received lower pay than males in comparable jobs over the 1 a s t two years; -An end to separate job classi- fication by sex; -Priority for promotion to fe- male employes in non-academic positions whose qualifications equal or exceed those of male em- ployes in higher level posts. If the grievance is still denied, it can be submitted to an outside ar- bitrator for a decision. Over the past two yearsthe union has sub- mitted 125 cases for arbitration. The union would like to simplify the procedure, making it easier for the grievances to be heard. Directly involved with the griev- ance procedure are the 40 union stewards who. help the employes file oral and written grievances. The union would like to reor- ganize the present steward system so that the stewards would be placed in charge of particular jobs (such as custodians), instead of areas (like the hospital). This would make it easier for the stew- ards to understand the problems of the workers they are represent- ing.

I would rath- er hear Rose play with Stern and Istomin, in their incompar- able trio, for it is there that his real genius is brought out. Lis- ten to the slow movement of the Schubert Trio in Bb sometime for a real thrill. There is Rose's playing at its finest, in perfect balance with his colleagues.
