Agency to Recruit Help for Viet Nam By LEIANN SMITH Emerald start Writer "We arc fighting to win the 'other war’ against hunger, disease, illiteracy and poverty in Viet Nam,” stated Deaaix Anderson, field representative for the Agency for International Development (AID). Anderson and his associate Carl D. Robinson, another field repre sentative, arrived in Eugene Monday to begin recruiting foreign service volunteers from this area. AID embodies 1,000 volunteers in 43 Vietnamese provinces. Most of the present number are engineers, agriculturalists, home econo mists, auditors or secretaries. Applicants must have a bachelor's degree and, preferably, some experience in their specialization. Salaries range from $5,000 to $20,000 depending on the volunteer’s capability. Although there is no maximum limit to serve, the minimum period is 18 months. The Peace Corps and All) are allies with basic differences. Volun teers for AID concentrate on local provincial chiefs in order to initiate a self-help program. Corps workers demonstrate that program. For example, Viet namese in a hamlet are given 75 bags of cement and 80 sacks of rooting. They are limited to a certain budget as they build schools aud local hospitals. Anderson and Robinson were in Saigon and observed recent elec tions. Anderson commented that voters refused power to the Viet Cong, and are becoming receptive to U S. aid. ‘‘When I arrived in Viet Nam in June 1965," recalled Anderson,” the country was suffering near collapse, but with AID and Peace Corps assistance, Viet Nam is experiencing advance.” Robinson summarized AID's ambition by stating, “Our job is to work ourselves out of a job.” Campus Briefs AaiMMiniMini ots for Campus Brieta must In* turn<-d In by 3 p.m. the day before publication.

Shalev Ginossar, outstanding jurist and current professor of law at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, spoke without notes Monday in the Student Union Ballroom. A master linguist and lawyer, Ginossar discussed "The Eichmann Trial.” lie began the discussion by ex amining the years of the Hitler regime. Hitler decided upon the “final solution of the Jewish prob lem”—the mass execution of Jews, he stated, and “Eichmann volunteered for the job.” Mentioned Trials Ginossar briefly mentioned the trials at Nuremberg, then traced Adolf Eichmann from his “kid napping” in Argentina to his death in Israel. The major part of the speech was given to discussion of legal questions raised during the trial. Ginossar analyzed five of the ar guments used in the defense of Eichmann. Eichmann pleaded irresponsi bility for his act and claimed he did it only as an agent of the state. He pleaded “acceptance of an Act of State.” Assigned By Government Ginossar countered that no per son is criminally responsible for acts assigned by government, but if the order received from author ity is against moral principles, they are responsible. “This is the case of Adolf Eich mann,” he said. Eichmann’s plea was rejected. “The accused Eichmann could not reasonably be made respon sible . . . for a crime (geno cide) that did not exist when he committed the crime," he said. But, stated Ginossar, the act committed must be innocent in itself. “There are certain hallow ed principles of morality without winch humanity cannot survive.” Eichmann’s plea was refused. Practice Within Borders Eichman cast a doubt that the court or Jerusalem was practic ing within the borders of its jur isdiction. Ginossar said, however, that the crimes committed were “directed against the Jewish peo ple,” who had at this time been granted a home in the state of Israel. Eichmann claimed that he had been “forcibly arrested in Argen tina” and as his arrest had been illegal, he should be released. Ginossar claimed that the right to take refuge was not an indivi dual’s right, but a state’s right. “The circumstances of his ar rest are immaterial.’’ Eichtnann cast a doubt upon the impartiality of the judges in the court of Jerusalem. “It is not a requirement of justice that a judge be a neutral person,” said Ginossar. “It is fairness he must possess. He must be able to try a man without prejudice.” The court of Jerusalem “show i ed some excessive fairness to the accused,” asserted Ginossar. The court made it possible far him to obtain a German lawyer, paid for that lawyer, and allowed written testimony from ether countries to be used in the trial. In the end, the court refused to use a piece of evidence that “might have been the only piece accusing Eichmann.” ASUO Fall Election Petitions Due Today Petitions for ASUO offices to be voted on in the November 2 gen eral student body election are due at 5 p.m. in the ASUO Office, room 310 of the Student Union.
