Nguyen was the featured speaker at the Third World Week workshop Friday on the struggle in Vietnam. He is a student at Oregon State University. Nguyen claims that the United States has continued to supply the Thieu regime with weapons. He added that the Saigon govern ment has been bombing areas which it believes are held by enemy supporters. “The Saigon government has declared that it is bombing areas held by revolutionaries,’’ he said. The plans of the Paris Peace Agreement can be implemented only when the Thieu government agrees to step aside and allow the Vietnamese to hold a free elec tion, Nguyen explained Only pressure from the U.S. govern ment will induce that action. “The U.S. has to accept that the government in South Vietnam is an unconstitutional government. It needs another general election so the people can vote for a new form of government.” But it is unlikely that Thieu will agree to that at this point. “We cannot expect the Thieu ad ministration in Vietnam to give up its position,” Nguyen said. “Thieu is an intelligent person. He knows how to act and when to compromise with the U.S. He knows when to obey the U S. and when to disobey the U.S ’’ The Vietnamese student said that Thieu’s position in South Vietnam has become more un stable as the U.S. has withdrawn its support. He added that the ruler would probably give up his post should the U.S. completely discontinue its aid to his government. “The Vietnamese people will not stand by to let Thieu do what he wants,” Nguyen commented “All of his agressive attitudes will only drag him into the mud because the people are tired of fighting.” The Paris Peace Agreement is important to the Vietnamese because it calls for the gradual withdrawl of all foreign troops from their country, Nguyen said. He explained that once this is accomplished, it will be the first time in a century that Vietnam has not been occupied. “War against foreign in tervention has been a part of Vietnam’s history,” Nguyen said. Once the war has completely ended, it will be the task of the Vietnamese to rebuild their country, politically and culturally, as well as physically, Nguyen said. Radding, IFC say ASUO Executive misuses power (Continued from Page 1) Fluker, acting BCC director, affirmed that Barnett had been signing BCC requisitions. He said that he and she had agreed that she would handle authorizations for that program until he had a strong understanding of where and how the money was spent. Both Barnett and Fluker defended the Executive’s holding of all EOS funds in the Executive account. They claimed that the equal allocation of the $12,500 did not take into account the greater numbers of students involved in some programs and also lacked sensitivity to the needs of in dividual programs. Radding discovered what he TiJclct 0&M THE WILD CHILD is based on a remarkable journal, the 1806 memoirs of a French physician, a certain Jean Itard. The record begins in 1798, when a child is found living in the forest like an animal. Dr. Itard hears of him and sets for himself the task of effecting the education of this child, a being wholly alien to “civilization.” After some apparent success, the boy flees, but soon returns of his own accord “Francois Truffaut’s new movie was the standout of the eighth New York Film Festival in September and is the most beautiful picture I have seen in 1970 Godard’s old description of Truffaut’s work—‘rigorous and tender’—has never been more apt.” David Denby, Atlantic Monday, Jan. 21 8 p.m. 180 PLC $1 or by bijou ticket called “the conflicting reports of how the EOS money was to be administered” during his December investigation of the fund’s expenditures. The in vestigation was prompted by a disproportional spending of EOS money during fall term which threatened to deplete the program’s funds before the end of the year and result in a negative balance. Radding said he began his investigation by tightening up on allocations, delaying disbur sement until each allocation was fully justified by a program director in an interview with Radding. The interviews, Radding said, uncovered discrepancies bet ween EOS program directors and his own understanding as to Barnett’s role in EOS allocations While he claims he was told that Barnett was the only authorized EOS requisition signer, the EOS program directors believed that Barnett could sign requisition only under special cir cumstances, one of which was the period before a BCC director was authorized. Radding said he felt the han dling of EOS money during fall term might have resulted in the misspending of $1,000 and in the approval of at least two questionable loans. He indicated that these loans might have broken a standard EOS practice of not allowing more than one loan or total loans of more than $100 to a student at any one time. Another IFC-EOS meeting was scheduled for 12:30 Wednesday to clarify guidelines and discuss the possibility of determining in dividual guidelines for each program. -PLOT \\\\ -T"»A/V/A*P©/ \[4h th^ I ms •£«■*» »■" £i^ r '• - *» ®- - - M THE * ' Mr.'»«T 3 ■a*'*'41-1 kT~Tf*f v .fr •£.. -■ > 4jp K(Ob£*F' • I • if£ /OU 2- "Hff - I * •-?■.£ !'*.£.? i /W/a^Kj^AJ'** vj$ ;p£o^ jifft* I t./ir.kj »/■. | L***w4.J r /onut s^atqe a l.Tt^ S«oft rpf? i TnE &*£-yA r /vtjS>c WtoP ~ee-E •** °'J* ^ai<r X £ W** ^ JPMfV .
