Esquivel spoke at the Univer sity last night as one of the keynote speakers for Peace Week. He is in the United States as a representative of SEkPAf. the Latin acronym tor Peace and and Service in Latin America. Esquivel is a regional secretariat for the Argentinian branch of the human rights organization. Esquivel said one of the pur poses of his visit is to make con tact with different sectors of public life here; specifically to visit universities, church groups, peace organizations and parts of the non-violent movement. “Today in Central America the United States is seeking to close ail possible avenues to a peaceful solution and to leave only one avenue open, which is war.” Ksquivei said. Using an interpreter, Esquivel listed a number of points con cerning IJ.S. policy toward Cen tral America. "We (the members of SKR PAJ) think the United States must respect and accept the jurisdiction of the international court of justice in the Hague; secondly the IJ.S. must stop all forms of aid to the Contras — the Contras have not only in flicted serious damage to Nicaragua itself, but also to Honduras.” he said. “The third thing we feel that the IJ.S. must respect and sup port is the Contadora peace negotiations. The United States has rhetorically supported Con tadora. but we have seen in reality that in fact its policies have not been supportive of the Contadora process,” he added. One important issue is the process of democratic develop ment going on in Latin America, to what extent real democracies are l>eing created and to what extent they are facades behind which nothing changes, he said. While many countries within Latin America are now seen as democracies, being able to put a ballot in a ballot box is not all a democracy is about. “There are a number of con stitutional governments that have assumed control of the government but they do not have power, the power con tinues to be in the hands of the military,” he said. Budget Continued from Page 1 reappraise real property every six years. Some areas of the county have not been reapprais ed in ten years, he said, and the assessors add package for 13 ad ditional appraisers would cost about $!i()0.000 and would allow the county to comply with state law. Johnson pointed out that despite his recommendations for increasing the amount spent on building repair and maintenance, many needs will continue to go unmet. "I'm greatly concerned that we will be seeing increased costs in future years." Johnson said. "because we won’t be able to make repairs in the near future, especially in the next fiscal year.” Johnson recommended $221,000 be set aside for building maintenance, a 62 per cent increase compared to this year’s allocation of $140,361. The first public hearing on the proposed budget is schedul ed for 7 p.m. Monday. April 13, in Harris Hall in the Lane Coun ty Courthouse. Two other public hearings will be held before the county commis sioners vote on the final budget by June 30. Senate Continued from Page 1 incidental fees by politically ac tive student groups.

Depart ments (chemistry, physics,etc.) w'ill be integrated vertically.” Classrooms and faculty offices will be situated horizontally. Moseley also said classroom overcrowding problems will be reduced, but not eliminated. Two 150-seat classrooms and one 250-seat classroom will be constructed in addition to many smaller classrooms. In addition to the four major science buildings, two other new structures have replaced programs housed in Emerald Hall and the Museum of Natural History. The Architecture and Allied Arts studios and offices were completed in December 1986 on a site north of Franklin Boulevard to replace offices in Emerald Hall, and the science complex construction will displace the current museum, which will reopen in the fall of 1987 in a new structure near East 15th and Columbia. c 0 p 1 E s 3* All Day Every Day Mon.-Fri. 8:30-8:00pm Sat. 10-6pm Print America 519 E. 13th 485-1940
