51 / 134
UNKNOWN MALE CALLER: a hundred or so Representatives
‘in the House have agreed to stop
funds for the war after December
32. ‘So I would like to know what
the HOPFMANs think should be done
to correct this. Do they think
referendum should be held like
they have in European countries,
or do they think, how do they
think the power should be brougkt
back to the people?
HOWARD MILLER; Okay, thank you for your questions. |
Want to take it ABBIE or ANITA?
How should power be brought back
to the people in your philosophy?
ANITA HOFFMAN: Well, I'm thinking of the Vietnamese 3
- ° oe - we met a with the a North Vietnamese
in the National Liberation Front
in Paris and they described to us
their svstem of power to the people
and I, we're such a highly techno-
logical society, that I don't
know if it's cenparable but probably
a good way to start is with a, their
organized around always small groups
of people and everything is voted on
and a by small units so then build
up in a peron--- sort of a personal
structure. Ahm....
nd HOWARD MILLER: But if power should go to the people,
~ why is it that you don't speak out
i to the North Vietnamese and teil
, them to lay down their arms, that
their people too, that they should
have the power over the power structure
in the North Vietnamese Government.
Why should they be drafted and sent
off to war’ Why should power to the
people only revert to the person wie +e «
7 goes to war in an American uniform?
