Concerned Bolivian
asks world support
By Randy Malat
Of (h« Emerald
The month-old "democratic” Bolivian government of Dr Siles
Zuazo is unique in Latin America and needs the world's help if it has
any chance to survive, says Rosa Maria Ruiz, a Bolivian activist
Ruiz told the Eugene Council For Human Rights in Latin
America a history of Bolvia Thursday night The soft-voiced Ruiz
told a stirring version of Bolivia's history from the 16th century,
through the atrocities of the last 18 years of military dictatorship, to
the situation today that is hopeful but deeply troubled
Siles, inaugurated president on Oct 10 after the military
government collapsed due to internal and external pressures, is,
says Ruiz, "a moderate civilian He's an old-fashioned style
diplomat that would like to find some peaceful solution in the
middle He's providing an option to Civil War What he needs is an
enormous amount of international support.”
Bolivia, landlocked in Andean South America, rich in natural
resources and with a population of 5,000,000 people, has had since
Spain's "discovery" of it, "an economy that has served everybody's
needs except the Bolivians," according to Ruiz The climax of this
"robbery" she says, took place during the tenure of the "cocaine
cabinet” of the last five years
"A handful of maybe five families," who are now in Argentina,
says Ruiz, "stole everything they could from the country They
borrowed heavily and invested next to nothing in Bolivia. They
invested International Monetary Fund credits for agricultural
development in the cocaine industry
“They had borrowed so heavily between 1971-1978 that the
national debt tripled," Ruiz says "Bolivia had been spending 65
percent of its gross national product to service the national debt "
By early 1982 the military dictatorship could no longer make
payments With the currency devalued repeatedly, inflation sky
rocketed to 750 percent As the year passed food shortages
became increasingly acute, especially among the miners, the most
highly politicized group of Bolivians, Ruiz says.
Labor unions, illegal and underground, called for general
strikes last summer.
"There has never been a more effective strike than between
August and October," Ruiz says "There was literally no one in the
street in La Paz. The place looked abandoned "
The military leaders announced they couldn't pay the foreign
debt and bowing to the popular clamor, transferred leadership to
the Bolivian Congress, which in turn elected Siles Siles. who was
democratically elected in 1978, '79 and '80 but kept from power,
must find a solution while people literally starve all over the country.
Ruiz, 32, a slight, dark-skinned woman with long black pigtails,
told of massacres of miners and their families "that became almost
a routine" after the military coup of 1964 The worst of these came
in 1980, when, according to an account Ruiz read, military
regiments attacked mining villages with cannons, tanks and
warplanes Defending themselves with stones, shovels, and dy
namite, the miners were overwhelmed, tortured, mutilated,
beheaded The "sadists'' raped women and children; they
sacrificed sheep, hens, and pigs, and loaded the dead onto army
trucks.
But by this fall Bolivians were insulting soldiers in parks and on
buses, Ruiz says
"It's quite a phenomenon when people can lose their fear to
such a degree that they can confront their oppressor, the military,
and tell a general, you're an asshole, you're a killer "
But now, Ruiz says, "Bolivians are living under a new kind of
terror the terror of being unable to eat to this day people stand
in line from five in the afternoon until 10 the next day to get two
pieces of bread ”

system of justice may literally
break down" within the next two
decades
The nation's highest-ranking

changes" and workload reduc.
tions are needed to maintain the
quality ot the Supreme Court's
decisions
"We have reached the point
where our systems of justice —
both state and federal — may
literally break down before the
end of this century, notwith
standing the great increase in
the number of judges and the
large infusion of court adminis
trators.” the chief justice said
Burger made his remarks to a
law school sponsored dinner in
