The ambassador mdkrated the importance of Latin America to the U.S. as its major supplier of raw material. He foresees greater dependence on Latin American resources by the VS. industrial complex in the future. Orfila criticized the U.S. press for giving so much publicity to Argentine political violence. He said. "Nobody says anything about the fact that there are 25 million Argentines who get up every morning to go to work." Orfila believes the VS. has been unjust in its treatment of Ecuador and Venezuela with the new commercial legislation aimed at members of OPEC. "It is fair to say that these countries did not participate in the oil embargo. Some US. legislators have forgotten that Venezuelan and Ecuadorian oil mitigated the US. oil crisis," he said. The ambassador blamed the strong beef lobby with putting pressure on law makers to ban Argentine beef from U.S. markets. Because of the ban, the people of the U.S. are paying too much for their beef.

International Perspectiveby tin He tola

Integrity and responsibility are two attributes used to describe individuals. groups, and governments. If one were to reflect on recent events in both international relations and in­ ternational business one would arrive at the conclusion that fljese two attributes seem to be diminishing in today's world.

At the business end of the spectrum is United Brands Company and its extortion payments to Honduran govern­ ment officials. There will naturally be those who say that such procedures are not un­ common in certain areas of the world, and are, in fact, necessary for the conduct of business. Accepting the fact that businessmen are also human and prone to the same weaknesses as the common man. one must still realize that a two billion dollar multi-national, food's company cannot allow such irrespon­ sibility and lack of integrity to lake place in such high executive circles. Worse yet arc the bickering ;ind accusations which are now hurting the company internally. Mr. Eli Black may have taken the easy way out. or he may have felt that his own ;«>rsr»na! sense of integrity and fopim.Miitiity could no longer lolerate the actions of the com­ pany he worked for.

The blame for the Honduran episode lies equally with the corrupt governmental officials in Honduras Undoubtedly the Honduran people will be led to believe that the incident was just another of many corrupt actions by multinationals This is un­ fortunate since it is really the Honduran governmental officials who cheated and deceived their own citizens with United Brands Co. being the secondary party ofgnat

Landa will be in Tokyo for eight weeks working for Yamaichi Securities Company, Ltd. ffis firid of experience will be in investment banking and financial research.

Landa win leave for Japan on June30. His pay will be room and board plus $200 per month.

Wilson win be working for the Sanwa Bank Ltd. in Osaka. Japan. The experience offered is international banking, E.D.P. and computer operating, and general banking.

In addition to a monthly stipend of 50,000yen ($18550). Wilson will receive free lodging and two meals per day.

He will be required to teach English to the English Speaking Society in the company three days a week.

Wilson's internship will be of eight week's duration from July 1 to August 31.

ponder is the effect of I duran episode on ortefj Honduras, afteraf^waii accordance cartel when it tax on bananas. I _ itself in the"""* eHortion arrangement. Does the Honduran action indicate that cartels -may be paving the way for more corruption or does it indicate that in the long run nations will ignore cartel policy for their own benefit.

Other recent events illustrating a lack of integrity and respon­ sibility are the unsympathetic, at times malicious greetings which Vietnamese refugees have been receiving in the U.S.. the Phillipines and other Southeast Asian countries. Canada's in­ creasingly nationalistic economic policies are casting doubt on its integrity as a trading nation of the nineteen seventies. The military juanta of Portugal, by acting against the will of the majority is displaying arrogance ;ind irresponsibility towards its citizenry

Whether it be in foreign em­ bassies or multinational cor- l»>ratc offices, decision makers must remain cautious of the loss of credibility which may occur if ,'i wernmenf or multinational corporation is embarassed by irresponsible actions.

Kihlic sentiment, as a whole, is usually unsympathetic to irresponsible conduct by governments and big business As such, mistakes by these sectors may form lasting negative impressions detrimental to business or governmental operations for years to come.

Play the company's game: Not all companies recruit on college campuses. Not all companies give flybacks. A short, non-cover letter inquiry to a company early m your job search can answer procedural questions about that company If it is then possible for you to play their game < I doubt if anyone would be willing to visit Alaska lor an interview > then follow up with a formal cover letter

lacks of resumes on

their desks At this point you ana CTi^rorte else exist only as pieces of|paper. If yours is sloppy, disorganized or self- distinguishing in another derogatory manner, you will be eliminated Also the type on a printed resume can be reduced enabling one and one-half pages of typewritten material to fit on one page.

Be able to explain it: So you were an artiliary officer in the army. Big deal! if that's all your resume says, then you've got nothing What did you learn as an artiliary officer that will make you a better potential manager? What opportunities did it provide you and what did you make of them"

Each entry on your resume should demonstrate clearly how >ou are a better potential manager for having engaged in that activity If you can't think of anvthtng positive about your

experience don't list it. If you can't explain it now you won't be able to explain it in an interview.

Be Fluent: One interesting incident has come to light fa toe FaD semester resume book, I defined "fluent" as "after two months in the country I will have no problem with the language." t'nder this definition I deemed myself fluent and reported so in the resume book. Two companies which I had not contacted asked to interview me. This semester my personal definition of "fluent"was"having no problem with the la iguage now." Under this definition I was not fluent so I reported ""speaking, reading and writing ability." In my opinion this statement and those like it ;BT death. Not one unsolicited company contacted me. Those students who do not have out­ standing work experience and who cannot ior do not) list themselves as fluent in at least one language in my opinion will no! benefit from the resume book.

Ho positive: Don't automatically give the in­ terviewer the upper hand. Kemember you are interviewing rum just as much as he is in-tprviewtnp yno H<> H<w not Y2Stto see a weak person, but a humbly self-confident one.

He persistent: This has been emphasized Wore, but can not he mentioned too often. Your tends are not tied after an in­ terview Write a thank you letter. If you have interviewed during your second semester make sore the company remembers you and is aware of your faterest in a career with them. Persistence is stfll the key.

O'Hara Bill Proposes Tuition De-EscalationbyCartKoeUer

fCPS) Congressman James O'Hara (D-MI > launched a major....••11 nr i-M-fTr-n"*—- —'—— *—

"intnxfoeetf a bill to rewrite federal higher education policy earlier this year. If passed, the bill would clamp severe restrictions on burgeoning student loan programs, expand opportunties and encourage work-study ventures.

The Mil has been subjected to a month of hearings and is currently awaiting action by the House subcommittee on post- secondary education, of which O'Hara is chairperson. The current financial aid statutes are set to expire June 30, 1976.

According to O'Hara, the bill is "a step toward ending the escalation of present tuition levels." in line with O'Hara's own long term goal of making "two more years of tuition-free education available beyond high school to every qualified American.

"Before we can reverse the tide of higher tuition, we must stop it, "the Congressman said. "I hope this bill, in the light of present economic circumstances, will move us in that direction."

In one confrontation with ad­ ministration, education officials

during hearings on the bill, O'Hara charged that President Ford's student aid proposals wotdd result to higher tuition and turn federal assistance into "another welfare program" requiring students to swear a "pauper's oath" before they could be assisted.

Ford's policy calls for a restricted Basic Grants program coupled with heavy reliance on loan programs.

UP AGAINST THE LOAN WALL

O'Hara's attack on loans,, according to Jim Harrison, staff . director for O'Hara's sub­ committee, is one of the keys to the maintenance of low tuition..

In a telephone interview Harrison said increased reliance > on loans puts much of the burden for financing higher education on students. Yet. he asserted, "Everytime the public educates a student, it benefits."

The O'Hara bill would end direct federal insurance of student loans, halt federal capital contributions to the National Direct Student Loan program, restrict the amount of Guaran­ teed Student Loans (GSL) a student could receive in one year from $2500 to $1500. and prohibit

Dear Editor:

AGSIM must keep more than accreditation on its mind if it wants to remain the unique in­ stitution it has become. Production of management generalists might be well and fjood if the world were turning away from specialty vocations, but it isn't, and we will be the losers for it.

We have the potential in our curriculum, student body, and our instructors whom 1 believe are chomping at the bit to expose the students to cold hard current methods of American and foreign

business practices and to get them motivated to enter this milieu.

A« it stands now. the op­ portunity cost of attending T- Bird. is absurd when contrasted with the alternative of staying home with your one year's subscription to the Wall Street Journal, particularly when the results of both are. to me, pretty damned close

schools themselves from making GSL's.

Only Private lenders would beable to insure GSL's. and to encourage better management, only 90 percent instead of the current 100 percent of a bank's kisses would be federally insured.

Arcording to staff director Harrison. the availability of "soft-loan - dollars money insured by the government at no risk to the lender encourages high tuition.

Both high tuition and soft loan money are in the interests of schools. Harrison said. When institutions raise tuitions above what students can afford, the education specialist argued, schools simply present the students with federal loan con­ tracts and say. "Don't worry about it, just sign here."

Harrison cautioned, however, that loans are a "necessary evil that should continue to function, but at a reduced rate."

Several education leaders testified during the hearings mat loans should be used to broaden a student's choice of an education, hut not to define whether a student should receive any education at all.

BROADENING BEOGSA second major provision of the

lull would eliminate the half-of- cost ceiling on Basic Educational Opportunity Grants iBEOG) so students attending low or no- tuition schools could have more of their costs covered by the government.

Under current regulations, for instance, a student attending a no-tuition school with non- instructional costs of $2100 per year is expected to pay the fast $300 before becoming eligible for a Basic Grant covering only the difference, or $800.

"A program that leaves an $300 gap at a zero-tuition institution... is not providing basic access," said one university chancellor in testimony supporting O'Hara's bffl. "Access is not a halfway concept."

In an effort to broaden eligibility for Basic Grants, file hill would remove fixed assets like a house or farm, from con­ sideration of a student's financial status. Supporters of the bill claim that mis would open up the program to more middle class students who come from families with such fixed assets, but who have nonetheless limited in­ comes.

Other provisions include a vast expansion of work-study, both by eliminating need requirements and increasing funding, as well as the expansion of Stale Student Incentive Grants, based not only on a state's support of student aid hut also on the success of the state in maintaining tuition-free public institutions.

UNTARGETING MINORITY AID

<(TSi The Song-stalled issue of a national press shield bill, which prohibits forced disclosure frf confidential news sources, has Ix-en pushed up on the front !«jrner. Present fv pending in Congress is a federal qualified shield hill initiated by Rep. Hubert Kastcnmeier iD-WIi and designed to protect a reporter's right to disclosure of evidence.

Hopes for a national liberal unqualified shield law died last December because an indecisive <ttrd Congress neither passed nor vetoed Sen. Alan Cranston's (D- CA' free flow of information bill.

Both Congress and the press corps thought shield laws, presently in effect in 26 states, might be the answer for protection after the Supreme Court's 1972 landmark decision

ruling'that reporters do not have an inherent First Amendment right to refuse to reveal in- iormation given them on a confidential basis Since the 'Setts: -! a .-sj^bcr si reporters have gone to jail rather than revea! their sources.

Legislative indecision. however, has existed not only among press shieldwary congress members but among the press as well. While several congressional leaders have viewed a shield bill as "special privilege legislation" for the press, their sentiments have been shared by some news reporters who want no legislation at all and hope Congress will stay out of the press arena.

rther journalistic opinion has ranged from a willing acceptance for a watered down bill to a<fe*mand for strong, unqualifiedlegislation. "We'd rather have no law than a bad law," said one shield law reporter - lobbyist.

According to free press defender Sen. Cranston, a bad shield law is one with 'serious loopholes and qualifications that actually would give the govern­ ment and the courts new openings with which to restrict press freedom rather than enhance it."

Yet with afl the discussion over

shield laws, related legislative loopholes have been discovered. which may force news reporters to reveal their sources, Cranston has claimed.

There are two questionable provisions in the controversial Federal Criminal Code Act now being considered by Congress. The first makes it a federal of- tense for anyone, including a reporter, to refuse to answer a question in an official proceeding after a federal court judge orders him to answer. And the second provision makes it a federal crime to conceal the identity of someone who may have com­ mitted a crime.

This new threat to the First Amendment may push lawmakers and news people to unite behind a single, strong piece of legislation which will protect news sources against compulsory disclosure.

"Toe press must be free to protect its sources so it can continue toexpose corruption and lawlessness in and oat of government. If informants are afraid to talk to newsmen to fear of being publicly identified, news sources win dry up and both the public and law enforcement authority themselves will be deprived of vital information," said Sen. Cranston.

Connally Seeks Ideas For Contributions

Addressing Monday's ASLC meeting, Diane Connally, Alumni Director, in her usual ready-to- tackle-anything manner, im­ mediately got to the problem Alumni are not giving enough. Cigarette in left hand, right arm akimbo, standing, right foot on a chair, she Mid, "I don't want to cop out; give me your ideas."

Ms Omnally pointed out that they have to concentrate on the f-ivtn-s because it is too expensive to mail to all the alumni.

Having a telethon to raise funds was discussed. The idea of establishing a President's Club was also brought up. Alumni would give to a special fund, and those contributors would decide how the money would be spent.

A concrete example of alumni raring about their school is the recent dining hall renovation. It took three years to accumulate the needed funds. The renovation of campus facilities is a con­ tinuing job. Alumni help is needed if AGSIM is to continue its growth.

O'Hara Bill Proposes Tuition De-Escalationcontinued from pa 0*2 column 2

that it shares money formerly targeted on poor people with those from the middle class.

"The going will be very rough for blacks in an 'open' versus earmarked' student aid system," warned one black educator.

Another critic charged the bill would make it a policy to con­ centrate low -income students in low-tuition institutions. Defen­ ders of the bill, however, stressed the significance of minimal costs for those desiring minimal costs, while loan programs would still be available for those wishing to attend more expensive in­ stitutions.

Still others charged that in­ creased reliance on private banks as lenders would barm low income students because of reputed discrimination by these lenders against the poor, blacks and women. Another objection was raised concerning additional emphasis on work-study, on the grounds that many from poorer educational backgrounds need to

spend most of their time on studies.

But above all, critics argued that O'Hara's objectives of in­ creased access couldn't be met within the current education budget limitations.

According to one educator, the student assistance programs currently used to equalize educational opportunities for the disadvantaged " are clearly vulnerable (under the O'Hara bill) to heavy use by new populations not before eligible for them: part-time students, students with incomes in higher ranges and proprietary school students."

O'Hara, however, has taken a very receptive attitude towards criticism of his work, promising that his subcommittee welcomes all input.

As staff director Harrison said of the 116"page piece of legislation, "the bill is not one of those one-line bills Oat goes boom!* and solves all our problems.

O'Hara himself vowed, "K it can be demonstrated ... that anything in Us bill is going to make it more difficult for an American to get an education, I wiD change it."
