Salvadoran support
March, rally set for April 18
Preparations are being made for an April 18 march and rally in
Eugene against U S. intervention in El Salvador.
More than 400 persons are expected to participate in the noon
march that will conclude with a rally featuring a Salvadoran speaker
and U S. Rep. Jim Weaver, D-Ore.
The march is being organized by the April 18th Coalition, an
organization of more than 40 political, labor, cultural and religious
groups from the Eugene-Springfield area. The coalition was formed
last month to demonstrate resistance to the Reagan Administration
policy toward El Salvador.
The coalition lists three principles:
• No military or economic aid to the present government in El
Salvador.
• Self-determination for the Salvadoran people.
• “Resources for human needs, not for war.”
Among the coaliton’s sponsors and endorsers are Sen. Ted
Kulongoski, D-Junction City; Rep. Margie Hendriksen, D-Eugene;
city councilors Cynthia Wooten and Gretchen Miller and county
commissioner Jerry Rust.
Among the several organizations sponsoring or endorsing the
coalition are Clergy and Laity Concerned, the Eugene Council for
Human Rights in Latin America, the Lane County Citizens’ Party,
Lane County Democratic Party and the Graduate Teaching Fellows
Federation.
Planning for the march, rally and an evening multi-cultural
program is currently underway. Information is available at 343-9130
and 343-4044.
The April 18th Coalition has endorsed a march in Washington,
D C., sponsored by the People’s Antiwar Mobilization scheduled for
May 3. The group has predicted that 100,000 people will participate
in the Washington march.
U.S. role in war-torn country
discussed in ‘teach-in ’ tonight
The role of the U.S. government in war-torn El Salvador will be
the subject of a ‘‘teach-in’' tonight at 7:30 in the EMU, room 167.
The discussion, sponsored by the May Day Cultural Commit
tee, will feature three University professors and a speaker for the
Eugene Council for Human Rights in Latin America.
Scheduled topics include the stake of U.S. business interests in
El Salvador, the nature of the country’s current government and the
role of the Catholic Church there.
Teach-in coordinator Al Szymanski, a University sociology
professor, says the event was prompted by a concern that “another
Vietnam is in the making" in El Salvador.
“If people were aware of the real conditions there, there would
be very little support,” Szymanski says.
Nationwide controversy recently arose over U.S. policy toward
El Salvador when the Reagan Administration resumed economic
and military support to the current government.
Scheduled to speak at the teach-in are Val Burris, whom
Szymanski calls a “progressive sociologist;” language professor
Robert Jackson, who recently spent a year in Mexico learning
about conditions in Latin America; and Juan Epple, a Chilean exile
who recently joined the University faculty.
