Attempted boycotts
of grapes
and grape
products
are
being made
in various
parts of
California at
the present
time,
and in
some instances
have been
successful. lhese
boycotts
have also
extended to
other states
as tar
away as
New York,
New York,
Washington, D.C.,
and Chicago,
Illinois. Some
of
the organizations
participating
in
boycott
activity are
the
Student Hon
Violent Coordinating
Committee, the
Congress on
?ggéa1 Equality,
and the
Students for
a Democratic
Society
In respect
to SDS,
it
is noted
that the
Preamble of
the SDS
Constitution states
"Students for
a Democratic
Society is
an
association of
young people
on
the left...;
one bringing
together liberals
and radi-
cals, activists
and scholars,
students and
faculty. It
feels
the
urgency to
put
forth
a radical,
dembcratic program
coun-
terposed
to
authoritshm»movements
both
of Commnism
and the
domestic Right."
During the
1965 National
Convention of
the
SDS, the
Preamble of
the Constitution
was
amended to
eliminate "counterposed
to
authoritarian movements
both of
Communism
and the
domestic Right."
The SDS is
opposed to
present American
foreign
policy
in Vietnam
Although Cesandghatez,
NFWA Director,
has stated
that
grape production
was down 30$ and that growers
are looking
more and more for
"scabs", the
fact is
that
the 1965 grape
crop exceeded
all past
records, and
was harvested
without any
major labor
problems.
However, the
"El Malcriado",
official
publication of
the NFWA, continued to
claim during
the harvest
season that
grapes were
turning to
raisins
on
the
vines.
"
Chavez was arrested by
the Tulare
County, California
Sheriff's Office during November,
1965, for
illegal use
of a
loud speaker, has pleaded innocent, but
the c
