generally credited in large measure
to their success.
A ll durin g the week before the
House vote, S A N E Washington o f
fices were filled with s ta ff and vol
unteers manning phone banks. They
called local operatives, who in turn
drummed up calls from member dis
tricts. The United Church o f Christ,
with a membership o f tw o m illion,
has set up peace activist offices in
200 congressional districts and uses
these to organize fo r (he freeze.
W ashington staff members call the
local activists, who in turn organize
the grass roots. As a result calls
against the M X flooded into Wash
ington with some members receiving
as many as 500 calls in one week.
These same tactics were repeated in
advance o f the Senate vote.
Next year. S A N E is planning a
m ajor drive in what it hopes will be
a resolution o f disapproval by the
Arm ed Service Com m ittees o f the
President's "dense p ack" scheme.
And later in the spring it w ill work
on knocking out fu nd ing fo r the
Euro
missiles, especially the
Pershing I I . at the committee level.
S A N E w ill argue that the Pershing
I I must be subjected to rigorous
testing before money is allocated to
its production.
The emergence o f the Protestant
churches, led by the United Church
of Christ, as a major political opera
tion within the overall campaign, is
a significant departure for the peace
movement, which since the Vietnam
war has been d om in ated by small
splinter o rg an izatio n s. So, too, is
the growing involvement o f the en
viro n m ental m ovem ent, w ith its
large membership and secure finan
cial base. Friends O f The Earth a l
ready has made the freeze part of its
agenda and it has growing support
w ith in the Sierra C lu b , A udubon
Society, and Natural Resources De
fense Council.
The churches and environmental
organizations w ill not only widen
support and provide an o rg an iza
tional base, but also supply financ
ing. U p to November about $3 m il
lion had been spent on the different
freeze efforts. O f that total, $1 m il
lion went to the campaign in C a li
fo rn ia , the largest electo ral test,
with another $500.000 going to sup
port activities o f the N a tio n a l
Freeze C am p aig n . T he rem ainder
was spread about in different states
and localities where the resolution
was up for a vote. The main fu nd
ers, a group o f about 30-40 well-to-
do individuals, gathered on a regu
lar basis to sort out issues for them
selves and to develop a unified strat
egy. O f this group the Rockefeller
children have been the single most
im p o rtan t source o f m oney, fo l
lowed by the better known lib eral
foundations. Direct m ail, especially
in C a lifo rn ia , played an early and
instrumental role in raising funds.

French Impressionist Paul Cezanne was such a slow
worker that he was forced to use wax fruit in his still-life
