People are not just the cause

They're also the. victims.
Fidddling with politics
Art and politics come together at the University of Colorado as

'DIPLOMA TAX':

Traffic jams. Overcrowded
schools. Inadequate housing.
Increasing unemployment.
Pollution. Almost any urban,
social and environmental
problem you can name is fast
becoming a nightmare.
And in one way or another
affects us all.
Of course, these problems
would still exist even if popula
tion growth were zero, because
population growth is not their
basic cause. Therefore solving
them must obviously become
society's number one priority.
However, the pressures of an
ever-increasing population tend
to intensifyrour problems. And
make them harder to solve.
(By the year 2000, Census
Bureau projections estimate
our population could grow close
to 300 million. That's about 100
million more people to house,
transport, educate, feed and
clean up after !)
This intensifying of problems
by sheer numbers of people can
also occur in individual house--
holds. For just as "too many
people" make society's problems
more difficult to solve, the
problems of raising a family
are not made easier when there
are "too many children."
Under the circumstances, we
feel there's only one reason for
a couple to have a child:
because they really want it.
And are ready for it-
emotionally, and not just
financially.
There's also only one time to
have that child: when it's
wanted. When it can be a
welcome addition rather than
an accidental burden.
Unfortunately, research has
consistently shown that not
enough Americans (from every
walk of life) are aware of the
benefits of family planning.
Or even how to go about it.
That's what we're all about.
And frankly, we can use all
the help we can get.
Especially from thoughtful
people who understand how
unplanned pregnancies can
intensify the already severe
problems society has still
to solve.
People who will, at the very
least, help others understand
that the population problem not
only has a cause. It has victims.

MOSCOW {API - The Soviet Un-
ion is collecting around $3 million
a month from educated Jews pay-
ing the government's new diplo-
ma tax to emigrate, informed
sources said Wednesday.
One Jewish couple bought their
way out with a record payment of
53,000 rubles. At the exchange rate
of $1.20 to the ruble, that is about
$63,000.
The sources said the diploma
tax, decided in secret last Aug.
3, had only marginally affected
the outflow of Jewish emigrants.
Immediately' following the im-
position of the tax - officially
called repayment to the state for
education costs - the number of
emigrants declined.
. Bit as more Jews showe

critics have called ransom, ti

vious level.
There was also evidence tha
the tax was being imposed almo
exclusively on Jews. The Sovie
