Dr. Mawlowi told a mixed audience of Arab, Israeli, and American students of various incidents where Israel was the attacker and the Arab States the defender. The most recent of these ; episodes is the pumping of the Jordan River water by Israel into Israel’s own canal system, extending southward to the Negeb Desert, Dr. Mawlowi said. “In doing so, Israel not only violates established prin-i ciples of international law, but also jeopardizes the livelihood of Jordan Valley farmers. many of whom are Palestinian refugees,” he explained. In the face of this threat, the Arab States decided to develop the Hasbani in Lebanon and the Banyas in Syria, both sources of the Jordan River. Dr. Mawlowi continued. This step would prevent the j Israelis from carrying out the plan. They reacted by threatening to attack, he said. Dr. Mawlowi graduated from Tripoli College in Lebanon and received his masters in political science at the! University of Chicago. behavior during the recent se°t since before the end of campaign. (Continued on Page 2) Radical Group Gets Campus Recognition Students for a Democratic Society, a self-admitted radical union of students, was recognized yesterday as an official campus organization by Dean of Students Paul A.j Bloland. The nationwide society “seeks io inject a new controversy into our stagnant educational system” by espousing the idea of a community of scholars rather than that of a multiuniversity structure. According to an explanatory pamphlet, the society “constantly urges students to reevaluate the purposes of education and the relevance of contemporary education to contemporary social problems.” The society was recognized after several weeks of gathering information to present to the Student Activities Committee in order to be recognized as an official campus group. Aside from its determination to instill students with a sense of concern about their university, the society also “attempts to bring to the student and the public in general a concrete understanding of the obstacles to peace and disarmament.” Society members have set up a table in front of th® Student Union where they are distributing literature urgiq^ an end to the war in Viet Nam. The society’s officers include Steve Heilman, president: Bill Edwards, vice-pres-ident: Mrs. Margaret Thorpe, secretary; Carol Resner, treasurer: and Michele Gibbs, national representative. Chapters have been established already at Berkeley. Stanford. San Diego State and Reed in Oregon. A public hearing this weekend. sponsored by tbe Committee to End the War in Viet Nam, is of prime interest to the group. “The forum will take p!ac* at Los Angeles High School Saturday at 7 p.m.,” Mrs. Thorpe announced. “We ask only that interested citizens come and hear for themselves the many different views on the war, because it is the voter, the taxpayer and the student who will have the last say in this war,” she said.
