At New Mexico Demonstrators Jeered, Pelted A demonstration by Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) on ] VI) II at the I’niveraity of New Mexico wax pelted with eggs rocks and obscenities by a large group of hecklers. ’ The demonstration, which lasted all night, consisted of six SDS members gathered around a coffin and tombstone which said Here Ilex the Dignity of the United States of America Horn-! 177C, Philadelphia; Died.l(Xi«. Viet Nam." Taunts from the crowd of hecklers ranged from the unprintable to I hope you all catch cold' and "The only good commie is a dead commie, according to The New Mexico Lobo, the student paper at Karly in the afternoon of the demonstration, campus police had put up a rope barricade around the coffin, to keep hecklers back However, the crowd around the so-called "silent vigil” grew to about 70, and the campus police put up wooden barricades at that time. ADMITTED COMMUNIST Hecklers discovered early in the afternoon that one of the SDS members guarding the coffin was James Kennedy, former head of the W.E.B. DuBoia club at UNM and an admitted Communist Kennedy became the butt of many taunts yelled from the crowd and was threatened "in at least half a dozen ways,” according to the Lobo. As the day wore on, the taunting crowd of students surrounding tilt* SDS demonstration tfrew thin, but the c&mpuh police rigorously controlled those watching, asking them to leave when they got too noisy. Later, after midnight, anyone coming near the demonstration was questioned by the campus police and asked to leave A reporter from the Ixibo who was asking questions of the SDS members pres ent was told to leave, the article said. POLICE HECKLE HECKLERS A Ixjbo editorial said next Monday: Philip Nicholson. SDS chair man, came outside the area ot the vigil to speak to the group of interested students, and five minutes later they were accosted by what appeared to be a campus policeman It is after midnight and 1 don't see any reason for you to be here," he informed the group 'so leave.'" It is curious that such a mild demonstration could stir up such hate,' Nicholson said They were ready to beat us a couple of times." Counter-demonstrators appeared, carrying such messages as "Win ir, Viet Nam," "Volunteer Here—Fight Communism Abroad,” and "No Retreat Beat the Viet Cong." Nicholson said he considered himself to he very patriotic, and he criticized the hecklers' ' mindlessness' and reluctance to debate He also said he felt there was a “genuine fear on the part of the administration and the police that there was going to be something dangerous ” Three UNM faculty members also participated in the vigil demon stration. although nobody stayed outside more than a half-hour in the cold night air. Letters to the Editor fCoHlitiufd from page 6) looked upon by many as being unpatriotic and disloyal Mark Twain, who was considered a loyal American had this to say on loyalty. In the "Connecticut Yankee" he wrote, "I was from Connecticut whose constitution declares 'that all political power in inherent in the people, and all free governments are found ed on their authority and insti tuted for their benefit.' You see, my kind of loyalty was loyalty to one's country, not to its in stitutions or office holders. The country is the real thing; it is the thing to watch over, to care for, and be loyal to; institutions are extraneous, they arc its mere clothing, and clothing can wear out, become ragged, cease to protect the body from winter, disease and death To be loyal to rags, to shout for rags, to worship rags, to die for tags— that is a loyalty of unreason." In the Pentagon there are powerful elements that arc eager for full scale war with Communist China. These arc the advisers who have per suaded President Johnson to make military gambits that might provoke China into a mili tary response. They are the most aggressive of the “Hawks.” And they undoubtedly have consid erable hacking among many capitalists themselves. A typical example is the former air force chief, General Curtis UcMay who has suggested that Viet Nam be warned that “it will be Mown back into the stone age.” The extremist “Hawk” view point is that China’s infant nu clear facilities must be de stroyed now, before China de velops a delivery capacity. Marriner Eccles, former chair man of the board of the federal reserve system, denounced the U.S. Viet Nam policy on Janu ary 4 according to a United Press International dispatch. He charged that Mr. Johnson has misled the American people on Viet Nam and was walking into a communist trap The US. policy, he said, has aligned Rus sia with China and has left the US. "with practically no sup port from the rest of the world.” Before the German invasion of Russia in 1941, Hitler and the German general staff's mis calculation of Russia's capability and strength to fight was based to a large degree on the poor showing of Russian military forces in its war on Finland in 1940 When the German armies became hopelessly bogged down deep inside Russia, Hitler gloomily stated that Russia's military performance against Finland was the "greatest piece of camouflage in history.” Surely the state of the world, and the dangers we face, call for a reconstruction of society that would end war, its threat and its cause. The reconstruc tion needed is that of socialism, a world in which peace is as sured by the elimination of in terests other than those of man kind. individually and collec tively.
