Proposed increases for dormitory
telephones will total 378.000. or $17 per

"Logically we would simply increase

that‘s just one increase we‘ll have to take

THE PRESENT (ienTel rate for

Undoubtedly, many people will accept
Gov. Ford's estimates without question.
The nature of his office gives his words a

that such things as this are why we come

Selfish politicians
with little integrity
cause U.S. corruption

By (ill. SKILLMAN

I find Margaret Week’s indictment of
“Capitalism" in the September 18 Kernel a
rather curious statement. To me it seems
to be characterized by analytical folderol
in laying the causes of “corruption” at the
feet of capitalism, and failure to provide a
defensible alternative to the problems
she cites.

First, she puts the blame in the wrong
place. “Capitalism" is not a political
system; it is an economic one, in which the
means of production are owned privately.
There are no necessary correlations
between the type of economic system and
the type of political system. One may
have, for instance. democratic socialism
or monarchic socialism (socialism being
the type of economic system in which the
means of production are owned by the
state). and even monarchic capitalism,
within bounds.

THIS IS an important point. Whatever
our woes are, they are due to our political
system, and not our economic system.
Thus, the “corruption" in the U. S. is due
to men putting personal gain above
integrity. This trait is not unique to the
l'.S.. and thus Ms. Weeks‘ charges are
illegitimate. Otherwise, the “corruption"
is due to an inherent reaction of any
responsive policy, and this also is not
unique to the U. S.

I hold the theory that government
responds to organized interests, interests
that resemble “clout" in the minds of men
who make policy, and do not respond to

Letters to the editor

unorganized interests, those without
“clout”. This theory seems logical, and is
rationally (and I think, superbly)
explained in Murray Edelman’s The
Symbolic Uses of Politics. The distinction
then, is not “rich” vs. “poor"; it is
“organized" vs. “unorganized”. Thus, the
“capitalist class”, as Ms. Weeks terms it
—whatever that may be —gets political
favors merely because it has organized
clout. No more. “Capitalism" and its evils
are simply not the issue here.

If what Ms. Weeks is charging were true,
then the poor, the non-“capitalist” class,
would never score significant gains in our
policy. Frankly, this is baloney. Note the
massive political and economic gains
made by the labor movement, a
phenomenon populated by lower~class
and lower middle-class economic status
people. This despite the direct opposition
of the capitalists. Note the Supreme
Court’s decision in 1954 to integrate our
schools, and subsequent moves in that
direction; note the series of Warren Court
decisions in favor of the rights of the
criminally accused; note the recent state
court decisions to make public education
finance more equitably distributed.

MS. WEEKS herself proves my point
when she states: “even the capitalist class
was unable to suppress the massive
movement against the war...The Duke
family‘s millions, the courts, company gun
thugs and state police were unable to keep
the miners from winning all of their just

demands...against the unity and fighting
spirit of the American people they are
actually weaklings...” Ah-hah! In other
words, the political system successfully
responded when made to do so by an
organized, viable interest. And notice the
channels the U. S. leaves open for this
victory: the free media, unconstipated
social mobility, and active interest group
lobbying (not bribing;studies have found,
despite recent and atypical spectacular
examples in the executive branch, bribes
to legislators are altogether rare). Please
let the state-controlled Soviet Pravda
speak for the defense here. Would it be
allowed to? The link between capitalism
and our troubles certainly is not made
clear in Ms. Weeks’ statement.

Now to launch the offensive: Ms. Weeks
certainly offers us no non-“capitalist”
system by which we may model our policy.
If this is the case, I claim she is guilty of
Utopianism, and we should be left to labor
as best we can with what we have.

Her only explicitly stated example is
Chile, the “model of socialism through the
ballot box”. This is amusing. Far from
being the cause of U. S. and CIA
intervention, the Chilean coup was brought
about by Mr. Allende’s policies. Paul
Sigmund, Director of Graduate Studies
and Professor of Politics at Princeton,
reported in January, 1974, the main
reasons for Allende’s overthrow:

(1) “eventual runaway inflation (323 per
cent between July 1972 and July 1973)
caused not by lack of foreign assistance
but by a domestic economic policy —which

detestable the outcomes were to me, to the
massacre in the Sinic and Soviet purges of

Piao), and the active suppression of
intellectual dissidents as witnessed in
Russia.

No, there are major flaws in the U. S.
political and economic systems, perhaps.

Poor editorial

participants in last Saturday's
bicycle accident, I wotild like to
protest your editorial in

shallow attempt to make
humorous a very serious
problem.

By naming it “Dodge-Em."
you have implied that bicyclists
are playing a game with
pedestrians. I do not know of any
case where a bicyclist
intentionally ran down a
pedestrian in game-fashion. I
also will not condone your use of
an irrelevant street accident to
illustrate your very necessary
plea for bike paths.

ALTHOUGH THE most publi-

subsidies are loans to companies

inflationary sort of money is
concentrated to such uses
through the operations of the
Federal Reserve System. You
can be sure, though. without the
presence of a Grinder or a
Murray Rothbard or any of the
other New Right economists,
there will be no structural
analysis of our sickened and
poisoned banking system.

There will be no Grinder there

consequences of his acts on his

through for himself. Ford does
not. and he won‘t have Professor
Grinder there to help him.
