ST:DENTS FOR A DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY
The Students for a Democratic Society (sds), as it is
at ?ort Huron, Michigan, in June, l962. The SDs is an
association of young people on the left and has a current
program of protesting the draft, promoting a campaign for
youth to develop a conscientious objector status, dencuncing
United States intervention in the war in Vietnam and to
"radically transform" the university community, and prcvide
for its complete control by students. Gus HALl, General
Secretary, Communist Party, uSA, when interviewed by a
representative of United Press International in San
Francisco, California, on May 14, l965, described the SDS
as a part of the "responsible left" which the Party has
"going for us." At the June, l965, SDs National Convention,
an anti-Communist proviso was removed from the Sps Constitution.
In the October 7, i966, issue of "New Left Notes," the
official publication of sDs, an Sns spokesman stated that:
there are some Comnunists in SDs and they are welcome. The
national headquarters of this organization as of April 18,
1967, was located in Room 206, l60s West Madison Street,
