Springfield Only 4 miles from campus • 747-9354 'OPCN-M Recycle This Paper m letters The system Look around Americans, al! over the world the United States supports tyranny and iniustice. Why? Paranoia? Misjudg ment? Ronald Reagan? No. We support horrible regimes because of the capitalist system. It is dependent upon profit, without profit companies col lapse and the economy dies. How does a company earn profit? Mostly through cheap labor and cheap raw materials. Where do we have these? In America, where unions ensure a decent wage for laborers, where we have safeguards against destruction of our natural resources? Of course not, and capitalism can’t survive solely in an en vironment like this. - Companies must go elsewhere, get cheaper ore from . South Africa, ship it to their fac tory in Brazil, pay the workers a couple dollars a day. and then sell it. Where? The people in Brazil have no money. Who does? The people in the advanced nations. Sell it there, reinvest the profit in In dia (not in job-hungry America, you have to pay your workers here) make it cheap, sell it. keep the economy going. The rich nations get richer, the poor ones stay poor. How do we keep this system going? Support the capitalist classes in the Third World, they can’t survive without American investment and markets, they’re eternally loyal. Their own people? They starve,, of course, they don’t have the money to buy things they work to make, Why not pay them more? It's difficult, too much competition. You must brutally suppress them to keep order. Who gives, them the guns? The . Americans. Why? We’re' fighting uh...Soviet tyranny..

I will' agree to not smoke in your space, if you will agree to pro vide me with a place to smoke, study and be comfortable.

INC I 1 am assuming that them have been complaints about the smoking in the Fishbowl, since. I arrived on Tuesday morning to find "No Smoking" signs posted everywhere. But simply kicking us out is no answer. Perhaps a few fins In strategic/ locations could ease the problem. '• . Or. — provide,us with another room. The two areas allowed to us now have' many problems." The area by the cafeteria is very small, totally unventilated, and a. passageway through which everyone — even non-smokers — must pass. And, there are no smaller tables for more private, studying. The booths in the Skylight area is also a "smoking area however, getting a table" there is next to impossible. My suggestion Is that either' adjustments be-made to make, the Fishbowl comfortable for both, groups, or that thu non-' smokers get the entire main . floor, and smoking be allowed' in the upstairs area that . in cludes the Skylight and Refec tory o. I'm sure this doesn’t exhaust • the possibilities. * Kathy Mason Eugene letters Policy The Emerald will attempt to print all letters containing fair comment on topics of interest to the University community. tatters to the editor must be limited to 250 words, typed, signed and the identification of the writer must be verified when the letter is turned In.
