Right-to-life activists plague abortion clinics The Michigan Daily-Sunday, April 10, 1983-Page 7 Uprising in Warsaw ghetto coimmemorated WASHINGTON (AP)--Right-to-life activists increased their sometimes violent harassment of abortion clinics last year, creating a "climate of terrorism" that raises concern about patients' safety, says a professional association of doctors and abortion cen .ters. Thirty-three incidents of violence against abortion clinics were reported in 1982, including six firebombings and the kidnapping of a doctor, according to Uta Landy, executive director of the National Abortion Federation. IN ANN ARBOR, the Planned Paren- thood offices on North Main have been picketed and officials there say clients have been harrassed. Although she was unable to provide specific figures for past years, Landy said the 1982 count was the "highest number that we have ever seen" and that harassment of abortion clinics is likely to increase this year. "People are very concerned for their own safety, as well as for the safety of the women who are having abortions," she said in a recent interview. JOE SCHEIDLER of the Pro-Life Ac- tion Committee in Chicago says his group has stepped up its efforts to picket abortion clinics around the coun- try and to discourage women from having abortions. In fact, Scheidler said he may help picket the federation's annual meeting in New Orleans this Week. But he firmly denied his group had been involved in any violence. "We call it non-violent direct action," he said in a telephone interview. "If I'm really committed to be pro-life, I would never set fire to a clinic. Someone might get hurt." THE federation is determined to fight; any type of harassment, which Landy said has "created a certain kind of climate of terrorism." "I think we have grown prepared enough and sophisticated enough to fight violence in a very organized kind of fashion," she said, citing her organization's efforts to educate abor- tion providers about countermeasures, insurance and legal avenues to stop right-to-life groups that overstep the bounds of free speech. Such countermeasures will be one focus of the federation's annual meeting, she said. The NAF, founded in 1977, now has 250 members - including doctors, counselors, abortion clinics and others involved in providing abortion services. WARSAW, Poland (AP) - Officials laid wreaths at a monument yesterday to open cermonies marking the 40th an- niversary of the Jewish ghetto uprising against the Nazis, but Poland's only survivor of the struggle called the ceremony "hypocritical" and stayed away. Marek Edelman, who at the end of the uprising led dozens of Jews to safety through ghetto sewers, wrote a public letter condemning the ceremony - which began a two-week, government- sponsored commemoration - and urged others to join his boycott. "I WILL not take part in it and I will not approve of somebody else's par- ticipation, no matter where they come from," Edelman, 62, wrote in the letter, which was widely circulated in Poland. When he was 22, Edelman helped organize the ghetto rebellion in which several hundred fighters armed with smuggled and homemade weapons resisted German tanks, artillery, and infantry for 53 days beginning April 19, 1943. An estimated 65,000 Jews were killed. The state-organized commemoration of the uprising, and Edelman's protest, have sparked a controversy that has reduced the number of foreign partic- ipants from an expected 3,000 to about 1,300. THE WORLD Congress of Jewry in January endorsed the commemoration, but there appeared to be no Jews, either Polish or from abroad, at the ceremony yesterday at the tomb of an unknown soldier. A delegation of 298 Israelis defied local critics and said they would come to Warsaw next week, when most of the foreign visitors are due, for the main ceremonies. The Israelis . included Mayor Shlomo Lahat of Tel Aviv and Stefan Grajek, one of a handful of uprising survivors who live outside Poland. Yitzhak Arad, director of the Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial Institute, said he hoped the group's attendance would prevent Polish authorities from presenting the rebellion as part of a national resistance to the Nazis. SOME OF THE organizers of the two- week commemoration have said that one reason for the ceremonies is to weaken the anti-Jewish image of the Polish government, which conducted an anti-Semitic campaign in 1967-1968. The government last month quietly retired the man who was the chief of security police during that campaign. Officially, the government said Miec- zyslaw Moczar, 69, retired from another post because of his age. To culminate the two-week program of remembrance, Polish authorities plan to open Warsaw's only synagogue, which has been closed for years because of disuse. The government spent the equivalent of millions of dollars to renovate the synagogue, but it has been unable to attract a permanent rabbi to serve Poland's estimated 15,000 Jews.

The University's present practice con- centrates on providing money for students based primarily on need. "THE UNIVERSITY hasn't done the research that needs to be done in order to realize how to spend its money (allocated for financial aid) intelligen- tly," Doster said. In response to a question, Doster said that financial aid packages actually improve for out-of-state students after their first year. "The University doesn't give out-of- state students University money when entering the University, but after the first year they do," Doster said. "I don't know why, but the amount of money can really grow." EXPLAINING that the University expects students to contribute at least $1,000 from summer earnings to expen- ses, Acevedo complained that "more than one-half the families have never had $1,000 in savings at any time. Yet it is expected by the University to come in with what these families have never seen." Addressing the issue of minority recruitment, Robinson said, "at this University, there is not a tradition and history of a lot of hard recruiting. It has a long history of implementation - helping people go through the bureaucracy, the maze, the network, in order to enroll here." But once students get to campus, Robinson said, the climate is hostile. With so few minority students at the University, many others say "it's not for me," he said. IN RESPONSE TO allegations that the University only recruits from two Detroit high schools, Robinson defen- ded the overall efforts of the admissions office. "Our efforts in proportion to the number of students we get are far less at Cass Tech and Renaissance High. We wouldn't have to step, our foot in the door and we'd get the same number of students." "We can go to (other schools), talk ourselves blue in the face, and get maybe two students," he said. "It just turns out that the most eligible and likely students come from those two high schools." Robinson said one possible solution is to involve the University's School of Education in the Detroit school system to help build a qualified applicant pool. "THE SCHOOL of Education could relate itself to the quality of education in the Detroit area by establishing community networks and actually provide some of the math, science, and communication skill necessary for survival at an institution like this," he said. All the speakers yesterday agreed that the minorities already on campus can best affect change by taking responsibilities for themselves. Sharon Jordan, an academic coun- selor in the Opportunity Program said, "It is time for us to stop being patronized. It is time for people to stop saying 'What can we do for you?' We have to say 'What can I do with my ex- perience, with my culture? How can I be more open and address some of the negative issues (facing me in society)?''' ONE STUDENT remarked that con- fidence building is crucial to improving the atmosphere for minority students on campus. "Once you build confiden- ce, then you start moving forward. When it starts within the black com- munity, you'll see results. Psychology Prof. Raphael Ezekiel said, "It's bullshit to ask about what the University will do. You have your own lives. The issue is what you are going to do with your life." Ezekiel acknowledged the purpose of the black and women's movements, but said that "outside the contexts of these institutions, you have to create your own institution and in that, you find your dignity. Forum coordinator Jodie Levy said she wished the audience. had been larger, but that if "a few people get something out of it," it's worth it. MSA Vice President for Minority Af- fairs Rick Jones added, "You expect a low student turnout. I'm glad to see LSA-SG do this; it shows their in- terest," he said. CHICAGO (AP) - Rep. Harold Washington blamed defecting machine Democrats yesterday for injecting racism into his mayoral battle with Republican Bernard Epton, and at- tacked them as a "certain hard group of men who have raped this city like vultures." The 60-year-old congressman, cam- paigning to become Chicago's first black mayor in Tuesday's election, said at a downtown prayer breakfast that unspecified Democrats "are the people who are injecting this whole business of race. "IT'S NOT the so-called racists," Washington said. "It's the greed mer- IOU Wins top MSA seats (Continued from Page 1) would have given MSA's vice president for minority affairs a greater role in the assembly's leadership failed to capture the three-fifths vote needed. The measure, which received 2406 of 3416 votes, would have elevated the vice president to a spot on the MSA steering 'committee, which reviews issues and recommends actions before they are brought before the entire student assembly. A proposal to hike student gover- nment fees for all the schools and colleges by 25 cents per term failed 1436 to 2227. The results came after two days of delay because of difficulties with the computer tabulation system. Mechanical problems with the com- puter scanner, sloppily printed ballots, and a discrepancy in a part of the com- puter program slowed down the tabulation process, said Bob Zahm, an engineering college junior who wrote the program and operated the com- puter. , I ± :T 'U 1 INDIVIDUAL THEATRES $2 * Avwedeo t wbey 7w1700 $2.00 Wed*Sab'Sun Shows Before 6 pm! chants." Washington, who recently 'has been on the defensive over his tax troubles and unpaid bills, aimed his remarks un- mistakably at former followers of Mayor Jane Byrne who now support Epton, a millionaire insurance lawyer and former Illinois state legislator. On Friday, Washington blamed a campaign leaflet that falsely accused Washington of being a child molester on some members of the mayor's police bodyguards. WASHINGTON TIED his financial problems to the anti-machine theme that won him a surprisingly sizable vote among anti-City Hall "lakefront liberals" in the Feb. 22 primary, in which the white vote split between Byr- ne and State's Attorney Richard Daley. - = I5 ENDS SOON!
