Council to replace SDS prexy
At its second meeting Oct. 6 the Georgia SDS
voted to replace its office of President with a five
member council. It was argued that the President was
unduly harassed as a representative of SDS and that
the organization would be more democratic without a
single leader. Candidates for the council were nomi
nated and approved.
In discussions with the audience the principals of
the organization stated that the SDS would have no
long range goals and that activities would be deter
mined by the members "on the moment."
In other action the members approved motions to
support the People's Defense Fund and the Oct. 31
demonstration against the war in Vietnam. The
defense fund will seek to raise $1,400 for the benefit
us those in need of bail or legal aid.

Gurewitz pushes for peace
Those who missed Don Gurewitz talk at Phi Kappa
Hall October 5 (attendance was a little slack) missed a
good thing.
Gurewitz, National Secretary of the Student
Mobilization Committee and Coordinator for the
National Peace Action Coalition, warned that the
current lull in the war is no reason to feel content
with the Indochina situation. The war is still going
on, and those who are against it should not be silent,
he said.
A seven-year veteran of the antiwar movement,
Gurewitz said, "Conditions that lead to military
explosions in Southeast Asia are worse now than they
have ever been in the past." He believes that another
crisis such as the Tet offensive is on the way in
Cambodia.
The war will continue, he said, unless the Ameri
can people stand up and let our government know
just how many of its citizens oppose the war. Gure
witz called for everyone who opposes the war, G. I.'s,
working people, and draftees to protest American
intervention in Southeast Asia as the students have
done.
For if everyone who wants out of Southeast Asia
speaks out, the U. S. government will have to listen
and act.
On Saturday, October 31 regional, mass demon
strations will be sponsored by the National Peace
Action Coalition. The purpose: To tell the govern
ment in Washington that its people wants to bring all
the troops home now. The meeting place for the
Southeastern states is Atlanta. Every American in this
region who opposes the war should make plans to be
there. Why? Because Washington can't hear you
sitting around home saying you are against the war.
Go to Atlanta on the 31st and exercize your right of
peaceful dissent For staying at home and being silent
is to Washington tacit approval of the war in South
east Asia.
