The Michigan Daily-Wednesday, February 9, 1983-Page 3 Rights violations continue II.7. ANNOUNCING SPEEDY'S NEW COPY CENTER b WASHINGTON (AP) - The State Department said yesterday political repression around the world continued on a broad scale in 1982, with a number of nondemocratic governments - both friendly and unfriendly - routinely denying the most fundamental human freedoms. In its annual report on the state of human rights, the department assessed 162 countries in 1,323 pages and con- cluded there was little or no change in most countries. AT ONE extreme, the report found that democratic Costa Rica "remains one of the most committed nations in protecting human rights" while at the other, communist North Korea "is one of the most highly regimented and con- trolled countries in the world." In general, the report indicated that politically motivated killings were more likely to occur in rightist dictator- ships than in Communist countries. Under questioning at a press briefing,, Ellitt Abrams, the assistant secretary for human rights and humanitarian af- fairs, refused to say whether there was any easing of political repression in 1982. IN ITS 15-page section on the Soviet Union, the report said it "continues to fall far short of accepted international standards." "Although capital punishment is im- posed only infrequently, the regime's standard response to dissent is the in- carceration of dissidents in prison or labor camps," the report said. It concluded that there was an escalation in 1982 in the anti-dissedent campaign. Moscow's goal, it said, is to sever contacts between Soviet dissiden- ts and foreigners. In Afghanistan, the report said, the inability of Soviet and Afghan forces to crush the resistence movement has led them "increasingly to target and kill, the civilian populace" in areas of high rebel activity. 2% blocks from Michigan Union [ 812 South State (next to Pizza Bobs) (313) 761-5085 South State A brans ..announces annual report Neo-Nazi group to rally in Ann Arbor yz 1SPEEDY R ESERVE NOTEf , $0100 j OFF1 £ '4%COPY ORDER ONLY For Speedy Copies.. ... and Kodak Quality Expires Febru~ary 28.1983 - A Not Redeem-able For~ Cash 6 !} ' J J- .; .:pe 4,cm- s"'EFEY we, _AP Highlight The University Activities Center presents Laugh Track featuring Sheila Kay.

The group's right to rally will be in- sured, Peterson said, but he added that "we certainly don't welcome them.'' "IF THERE were any way we could legally prevent (the rally), we would do so," said councilmember E. Edward Hood (R-Fourth Ward). Councilmember Leslie Morris (D- Second Ward), who also said she believed the group wrote the council only in the hope of drawing opposition, said group members she talked to last year were "shocked" to find they didn't need a permit from city council to demonstrate. City Police Chief William Corbett said yesterday he will again take whatever steps he deems necessary to safeguard against violence at the rally next month, adding that he plans to meet with group members in the next few days to gather details. STRIP Aah! GRAM Profs study arms control (Continued from Page 1) Miroslav Nincic, the Office's second co- director, believes the organizationnever could have been created without the moral support of University President Harold Shapiro. Nincic said the office is the solution to Shapiro's questions about what role the University should take in the national arms control debate. Shapiro, however, refuses to take credit for organizing the group. "I would stop short of saying I was influen- tial," he said. "(But) I've tried the best I could to improve this area." So far, the office's efforts have had some significant impact on the Univer- sity. SEMINAR participant Prof. Martin Einhorn is presently teaching a Univer- sity Course called "Nuclear Weapons and Nuclear Wars" which the office originally organized as a mini-course. "We cover a variety of topics. Its goal is to introduce students to issues and the language of the topics," Einhorn said. He said the class aims at clarifying some of the root dilemmas surrounding arms control. "There is a question of what should be done (as opposed to) what can be done," he said. EINHORN SAID the process of con- verting the class from a mini-course to a full semester was eased by the help of other seminar members who frequently guest lecture to the class. The course was the office's first major activity. But now the office is trying to organize the study of nuclear crises on a larger scale by staging a symposium on crisis stability and nuclear conflict. According to Nincic, the symposium would stress ways of preventing the escalation of a crisis into a nuclear con- frontation. "It's not a particularly political type of thing," Nincic said. Instead of focusing on methods of arms reduction or advocating nuclear freezes, he said the conference would concentrate on how to prevent a crisis between the United States and the Soviet Union from becoming an all-out nuclear disaster. ACCORDING to Nincic, com- munication is the key to preventing such a disaster. To provide such communication, Jacobson said the symposium would serve as a forum for scientific research by social and natural scientists about the onset, escalation and spread of crises in the globe's politically volatile areas. Combined with papers analyzing military and diplomatic policy which could be used to control such crises, Jacobson hopes the symposium could produce a comprehensive book ex- ploring the entire nuclear arms issue. But before any of this can happen, Jacobson said, "we've got to get the thing funded." NINCIC AND Jacobson have been trying to find an organization to sponsor the symposium, which is tentatively scheduled for this fall. According to Jacobson, the office has applied for grants from the Department of Defense, the Ford Foundation and the Rockefeller Foundation. Nincic said the Rockefeller Foundation has ex- pressed some interest in funding the event but financial commitments are not expected until sometime this spring. "The public has realized the way we're trying to manage our relations with the Soviet Union," Tsipis at MIT said, and they are "alarmed." But he and other higher education faculty across the nation are concerned the sudden surge of interest in arms control is little more than a political fad. Michael Moodie, an arms control program coordinator at Georgetown University, echoed Tsipis' concern. "I think institutions are responding to what they see as a growing minority in the public at large," he said. "In some cases, it is a fad."
