Author criticizes election
of Demos in El Salvador
By Ron Hunt
Of lti» Emwato
The Reagan administration's
support of recent elections in El
Salvador has backfired, author
James Stephens says
The administration has been
forced to uphold the outcome of
the elections, which backfired in
a gust of congressional and
public criticism, Stephens told a
small audience Monday at the
Latin American Cultural Center
Stephens, co-author of a
1981 Oxfam America study on
Salvadoran land reform, said
the March 28 election results
will increase polarization and
instability in El Salvador Poli
tical groups from the extreme
right now have more power, he
said This has led to more
violence and infighting within
the far right as well as continu
ing deterioration of citizens'
human rights
“I don't see anything positive
about the outcome of the Sal
vadoran elections," Stephens
said
Congress agrees and is
"asserting its right to take a
definite role in foreign policy,"
Stephens said Several recent
resolutions have challenged the
administration s intelligence in
formation, leading to a "major
loss of face, a major loss of
credibility” for the Reagan
administration, he said
Others, both within and out
side the United States, are cri
tical of the administration's for
eign policy, Stephens said The
Latin American Studies As
sociation, for example, recently
adopted five resolutions all op
posed to United States invol
vement in El Salvador The
press has played a fundamental
role in criticizing the adminis
tration in the past year, he ad

the progeny of 50 years of
fraudulent elections in El
Salvador — fraudulent by their
very nature," Stephens said
The elections commission tal
lied 2.100,000 ballots but only
800,000 were printed, he said
Long lines of voters were
produced by reducing the
number of official polling
places, he said
Citizens were coerced to vote
for the incumbent Christian
Democrats or groups on the
extreme right, Stephens said
So the left, claiming election
applications were de facto
death lists, refused to run a
candidate and urged Salvador
ans to vote in such a way that
their ballots would be annulled,
he said A significant number —
10 to 15 percent — of votes were
annulled, he added
A large turnout for the elec
tions was not necessarily a
rejection of future violence in El
Salvador. Stephens said, ad
ding that one far right group
talked about using napalm on
peasants "A vote for them is
certainly a vote for increased
violence "
U S observers were only
shown model precincts, he said
Sen Nancy Kassebaum, R
Kan . head of the eight member
delegation, "went down there
and thought she was in Kan
sas "
