TradeWith Japan Is Not Just Cars
~'"
.. ~
by Carney Combs
IZ ~
~,."
~
Plans are being made to regularize the
exchange between faculty from The Evergreen State College (TESC) and professors
from the Kobe University of Commerce in '
Japan. A letter has been sent from college
President Dan Evans to President Toyhara
of Kobe, suggesting an annual faculty
trade.
The proposal is expected to be accepted, said college Provost Byron Youtz:
"One of their faculty, Mitsuharu Mitsui
[teaching here now], has told us that the'
Kobe University wants an annual trade.
Several faculty members are eager to
participate."
As has been arranged before, the Evergreen faculty would visit japan during the
spring and summer quarters and the
japanese professor would be at TESC to
.teach in the fall and winter quarters. Since
the japanese school is a university of
commerce, their professors will, for the
most part, be experts in business and
economics. The Americans involved in
the exchange have been teachers in
history, economics, and English literature.
There are benefits all around according
to Youtz: "It's good for Evergreen students
to have contact with people of a different
cultural setting, to help understand the
other culture. The faculty of Evergreen get
to know something about japanese culture, food, language, and they get to go
on tours, The Kobe professors form long
term contact with American culture and
language. The students of Kobe learn a lot
about international trade so this is a
chance for them to get a taste of America."
Housing for the visiting faculty is provided by the hosting college, but the
salaries are provided by their own schools.
Already, two japanese professors and
two from TESC have participated in
exchanges. Besides learning about the culture and countryside of their temporarily
adopted countries, they found some very
fundamental differences in educational
philosophy.
The first Evergreen faculty member to
go to the Kobe University was Richard
Alexander. He stayed in Kobe in the
spring and summer of 1980. While there,
break away from notions of how students
should ask questions We tried to draw
,hem out," Alexander explained, "But they
lust aren't accustomed to being encouraged to speak out."
The Japanese educational system is
quite different from America's in its
expectations. Alexander described these
differences in depth : "First of all, most
college students sign up for about 11

the whole."
he taught American literature and American Culture. These classes were conducted
in English . As a teacher accustomed to
the outspoken, and very often opinionated,
Evergreen student, he was in for a change
when dealing with japanese students.
"japanese discussion takes the form of
suggestions , The last thing they want to
do is produce conflict. I insisted on discuss ion in class. It worked in my American Lit class but not in the American
Culture class. Tom [Rainey, tlie other

classes at a time and weed out which
ones they want to stick with. They often
hire each other to take notes at lectures
.hey themselves don't attend. Often these
students are taking notes for several
students at the same time. They attend
the first day to get an idea of what the
class is about, assignments, book lists
etc., and then don't show up until the
examinations . This is well known to all
the faculty. Some faculty members don't
tolerate this behavior and the students
know who's 'severe' in this way.
" Part of the reason for this is that being
in college is not a stress ful situation
[while] getting in is. Whether you pass the
entrance exam or not sets your place in
the japanese social hierarchy . Their edu cational experience is geared to this
event.
" japanese grade and high schools are
excruciatingly difficult by the standards of
the U.S. and most of the world . At the
age of seven or eight, the pressure starts
to build on japanese kids to do well in
schools, especially if the families or kids
want to attend college.
"To make thi s all the more difficult
they have four distinct methods of writing. Romaji is a form that uses Roman
characters. There are two sys tem~. of
Kana: one for foreign words and one for
japanese words. fhere is also Kanji characters for Chinese words. These are
systems of syllabary, each character
stands for a syllable. Language is taught
through rote memorization . Because of
thi s they have one of the highest literacy
rates in the world.
"By the time they are in high sc hool ,
they have to have a wide-based knowl ~ge in all subjects. Most knowledge is
learned through rate memorization,"

" In America, it's almost the opposite The
pressure isn't turned on until a student

During their college years, it is very
important for students to choose a
mentor. A member of their juni or or
senior faculty usually fill this role . They
are called sensei and act as guardians to
the students. Arranged marriages are also
very much a part of modern japanese li fe ,

Tom Rainey and Nina Carter went to
Kobe during the spring and summer of
1982, returning in September. They noted
the same differences between japanese
students and Evergreen students, along
with some others.
"98-99% of the students were male, and
even with the female students present ,
there was an underlying suspicion that
they were there to find husbands," Rainey
recounted.
"Their students are more passive, our
,tudents challenge the faculty; the
Japanese cons ider thi s to be di scourteous,
I think this could be partly because they
are afraid of lOSing face in front of their
peers," he added .
" We were able to get a group of graduIte students togther for an 'Evergreen
style' seminar," Carter remembered, " but
they mostly asked us for our opinions ,"
Rainey commented that, " there are no
team-taught programs. The facult y are
more specialized , each teachin g certain
classes."
They were both quire enthusiastic about
returning to visit japan in the futurc' ,

Rainey taught contemporary Ameri can

teaching methods much , sin ce he lectured
there and also lectures here, but he conceded , " It was very helpful for me, because it forced me to explain to them
about Ameri ca n economi c and socia l
history. I had to lecture slowl y and pronounce the words distinctly and break
down concepts. In some ways it clarified
my own thinking."
Carter taught English to members of the
staff and German to some of the students
which also helped her, "to be careful
about the words I use and th ink about
the language."
It's obvious that Evergreen's philosophies of education and those of japan are
drastically di fferent. A talk with Mitsuharu
Mitsui, the Kobe faculty member who's
teaching here now, clarified the views of
Japanese educators a little more.

We have, as a matter of record , a state
Republican party which voted unanimously, as recently as last weekend [Jan . 15),
to oppose any income tax in any form . I
think that is very short-sighted . I'm disappointed that people [with] the obvious
civic-mindedness to get involved in a
political party would be that close-minded
about what our other revenue alternatives
ought to be.
I think the question we have to ask ourselves when talking about the revenue
structure isn't 'are we for or against an
income tax.' The questions are 'how do
we want our revenue structure to perform 7 What characteristics do we want it
to possess 7' For my own part, I think that
our tax structure needs to do three things.
[For one,] it needs to generate a sufficient
number of dollars or funding to provide
for programs that we, by consensus, agree
the state government ought to provide
that aren't adequately provided for in the
private sector.
Two, I think our revenue structure
needs to be equitable. That is, it should
not rely on one income bracket disproportionately over another. The fact of the
matter is, we've got the most regressive
tax structure in the nation. Poor people or
low income people in this state pay two
to three times the percentage of their
personal income to state and local taxes
as people who make over $75,()(X) a year.
Well, that's absurd! That's not really
acceptable, so we need more equity.
The third thing we need is more stability. We rely on the sales tax for 50% of
our revenue. Sales tax is what is described

Evergreen needs a student lobby. Even
though tuition increased by 70% two
years ago, Greener graduate and House
Ma jority Leader Dennis Heck says (CPI
Jan 27 , 1983) " no more than 10 to 15
students" con tacted him to complain .
Students are generally apathetic, especIally towards school politics. It is sometimes difficult to get excited over issues
which will affect this school after we are
gone . But tuition is increasing drastically\
each year; it is getting harder to pay for.
W> can 't let ourselves get so wrapped up
III ou r studies that we forget we are payin!,: more all the time just for this
opportun ity .
Thi s school has been hard hit by budget
slashing. Programs have been cut, studios
are bein~ closed, and faculty are being
laid off. "Ithough we are paying more
now for higher education , we have less
C]lIality and opportun ity than before.
Fvergreen III particular has much to
Im e by not having a lobbyi ng representatiw dt the capi tol. The closing of our
school has been discussed too many

BeSide;, there's an underlying principle

Evergreen: that is, quality education
"hou ld Iw affordable for all. It is an investmpn: in the future, both for the
studen t and for the state . Accessibility to
higher education based on someone's
ability to pav amounts to discrimination .
On both the state and national level,
talk has recently centered on the illlport,lnce 01 revitalizing our basi c edu cation programs if we are to reta in our technological edge. At the same time, higher
education is becoming inaccessible to
many because of increased tuition and
reduced federal aid . It appears that although the governm ent wants to emphasize math and science sk ill s on a basic

Turn Off Those Lights
Editors:
An ~pf'n letter to the Evergreen
community :
If you think your utility bills are high ,
have vou seen Evergreen's lately? During
the fi scal year of 1982-83, Evergreen
expects to pay more than 3/ 4 of a million
dollars to the local utilities. 46% of this
money wi II go to Puget Sound Power &
Light. (this does not include the electriCity
used in the dorms & Mods), 50% will go
to Washington Natural Gas (natural gasfired boilers in the steam plant), and 4%
wi ll cove r the sewer, water and oil expenses. These percentages indicate two
things :
1. 96% of the energy budget is used for
heating, lighting, and electrical
equ ipment usage each year and,
2. as a whole, we are not as energy
efficient as we may think or hope we
are.
Two questions then arise: Where is the
energy being usedl And how can it be
conserved? The Washington State Depart.ment of Engineering and Architecture was
concerned with these same i ssues and, as
a result, hired the consulting engi neering
page 4 The Cooper Point Journal Feb. 3, 1963
This situation will create a nation of computer programmers and perpetuate an
elite managerial upper class.
We must join the Washington Student
Lobby (WSL) and organize in support of
affordable higher education . The WSL is
committed to promoting: full access to
higher education, a restoration of academic quality, and student involvement in
decision-making policies regarding higher
education.
The WSL Board of Directors is made up
of three student representatives from each
of the participating colleges. Presently,
only University of Washington, Western
Washington University, Washington State
University and Central Washington University are full members and they maintain a staffed office in Olympia.
Among other things, the WSL publishes
legislative voting records, organizes st udent lobbyists and assists the local WSL
chapters Members also conduct voter
registration drives aimed at creating an
effective student voting bloc. Operations
will be expanded once additional money
is received from other schools, such as
Evergreen, which are still completing petiti on drives.
The stu dent lobbyi st is supported by a
voluntary $1.00 fee collected at the time
of registration . This money is completely
refundable if a person decides they do
not want to or ca nnot afford to support
the WSL. But at a dollar per quarter, when
tuition has been rising an average of 50%
these last few, who can afford not to joinl
Some people may not agree with the ,
idea of having a lobbyist because we then·
become part of and thereby help perpetuate that whole game. At the same time, it
i s a reality that many other special interest groups are lobbying down at the
capito l and if we don't get down there
soon, as an effective lobbying voice, Evergreen may yet be turned into a police
academy.
Only 850 more signatures are needed to
indicate that over half of the full-time
students at Evergreen approve of becoming a part of the WSL. Make it a point to
sign the WSL petition soon, to help stop
the esca lating cost of college tuition.
Quality education must be accessible to
all who seek it.

The world's largest and most expensive
public power generating project, located
here in Washington, is about to go bankrupt. Faced by stacks of unpaid bills,
recalcitrant ratepayers , and legal suits
which have forced the premature termination of two of the five nuclear projects
while rendering future bond sales impossible, the Washington Public Power Supply
System (WPPSS), now runs the risk of
default, or failure to meet its bond obligations. The effects of such an action, the
largest default in public bond history,
could well be far-reaching and severe.
The termination of WPPSS plants #4
and 5, spurred on by the popular voter
initiative, 1-394, had a drastic impact upon
the project. Not only have the closures
added $98 million to WPPSS's list of
unpaid bills, but the payment schedules
on the $7 billion worth of bonds sold to
cover the two nuclear plants have been
pushed forward.
Of the first billing, Jan 25, WPPSS has
received payment from only two of the 88
contracting utilities, or less than 1% of
the $101 million total. The 86 remaining
utilities contest the legality of the contract and are awaiting court settlements,
which is certain to be a lengthy process.
And whil e the utilities wait, the bonds
come due. As it appears now, there is
every possibility that WPPSS will be broke
by the middle of May, jeopardizing
WPPSS #2, all but assuring the termination of #3, and casting doubt upon the
entire $28 billion debt structure.
The manner in which the debt was
established is a fascinating study in
corporate public relations . In the 1960's,
representatives of the Bonnevi lie Power
Administration (BPA) approached utilities
through the region with their proposal.
The terms of the contract seemed innocuous at first. The utilities, by the simple
pretext of guaranteeing bonds, would
bring the wonders of modern technology
to the Northwest, thereby ushering in an
era of cheap electricity for an expanding
industrial base. Many of the municipal
and public utility district (PUD) commissioners were not engineers or economists
by trade, but managers and businessmen .
The BPA projected the region's need for
electricity would rise sharply and cautioned the officials to act responsibly in
preparation for the future. Faced with
such inflated forecasts, coherently represented by "experts ," many utilities saw no
reasonable alternative but to contract for
constru ct ion of the plants
With 88 utilities behind the project and
10,C()() investors putting up the cas h,
WPPSS financed the construction of
nuclear plants #1 through 5. The vast
Sexual Assault Is A Problem That Hurts Everyone
by Stephen Kistler
sums of money required for construction,
plus a generous amount of interest for the
investors, was to be paid back with
revenue from the electricity generated by
the completed nuclear plants.
However, none of the pl.ants have been
completed . They may never be. With
interest, the debt now comes to $28
billion, the payments being spread over
the next 70 years . To cover the $7 billion
in bonds for projects #4 and 5 alone (one
quarter of the total), WPPSS must make
payments of $94 mi II ion every three
months - that's a million dollars a day,
$4O,C()() an hour, or $11 a second, and the
payments will continue till long after
most of us are dead .
WPPSS is just now coming to grips with
the harsh reality of the utilities' refusal to
pay. The writing is on the wall . In Oregon ,
18% of the debt, a judge has ruled that
due to a provision in the state constitution limiting municipal indebtedness, the
contracting utilities had no authority to
back the bonds. Thus, the liability of
Oregon's utilities is not legally grounded .
Idaho, with 5% of the debt, has similar
constitutional restraints, clouding this
state's contracts as well. Utilities in the ·
State of Washington, with 74.8% of the
debt, have nearly unanimously refused
payment on the basis of alleged misrepresentation and/ or cost overruns. With
last week's rejection of the revised billing
schedule by the utilities, the matter falls
upon the courts.
The history of the WPPSS project offers
ample opportunity for questioning the
accuracy of the initial projections, particularly in light of the cost overruns, questionable managerial practice, and dubious
contract liability, Some believe the project
is hopelessly overdesigned and that there
is not sufficient capital available to
finish construction even if it were desirable. Also, since the utilities in Oregon
were not legally able to enter the contract, this opens the door for other states
to claim misrepresentation in this area as
well, since Oregon was represented as one
of the major contractors.
Some things seem certain. The utilities
are waiting for the courts; the legal proceedings will drag on for many months.
WPPSS has a lot of debt to cover, practically no utilities supporting it, and will
in all likelihood go broke in May.
All this makes the future of WPPSS and
the WPPSS bonds very uncertain. In the
last few weeks, a number of options have
been discussed. These scenarios run the
gamut from full and timely payment to
dumping the plants on an outside buyer,
from a negotiated settlement to simply
not paying the debt, or default.
Full and timely payment assumes that
everyone gets their money on time. This
could occur if all of the 88 utilities
accepted the payment schedule, or if the
state, federal government, or BPA bails
WPPSS out. None of this seems very

Team of Facilities did not require high
tech so lutions. They found that by simply
turning off the lights and shutting the
doors a considerable amount of energy
can be saved.
Conservation is glamorous. It does not
necessarily require gadgets, technological
breakthroughs, or extensive planning. It
does require the participation of individuals to turn off the lights when they leave
classrooms, lecture halls, offices, study
rooms, or any room. Another question
then arises : Why bother with this "small"
stuff.; why not focus on the "big" stuff?
Well folks, each of us can't redesign the
heating and lighting systems today;
tomorrow, maybe. So in the meantime, do
what you can to help : Turn off the lights
and shut the doors!

Rape is a subject that most people
don't come to terms with easily. The attitude of "that could never happen to me"
or " that could never affect my I ife" is
much more comforting than dealing with
rape as a real event. Chances are, whether
you know it 9r not, you know someone
who has been raped - maybe even someone who has committed rape. Most
people face serious problems in dealing
with this type of crime, from giving
assistance and support to victims (and
those close to them), to effective ways of
dealing with offenders. Understanding the
problem is half the battle, so it is something about which everyone would do
well to be informed and aware.
Rape is, by conceptual definition, any
nonconsenting sexual encounter. Statutes
vary and the legal definition is usually not
so broad. It is also generally extended to
include limits on the age at which a
person can legally give consent. In Washington, rape is defined as "sexual intercourse" or "sexual contact" without
mutual consent between persons who are
not married to each other. However, as
far as the motivations and repercussions,
the first definition is adequate.
The misconception that a rapist is
simply oversexed, or exhibiting aggressive
behavior that can be expected of young
men, is becoming less common. Most
people are already aware that rape is a
symptom of serious psychological difficulties. These sometimes show up in the
absence of any close or intimate emotional relationships. The rapist usually has
doubts about his adequacy and a lack of
self confidence in sexual and nonsexual
areas. Generally, he sees only his own
needs as important, and sees others as
obstacles to be overcome or objects to be
manipulated fQr his own gratification . This
indifference to the feelings of others
causes his problems in maintaining any
mature relationships .
His feeling of powerlessness in dealing
with people through acceptable means
can result in stress which the rapist may
believe will destroy him or drive him to
insanity if it is not released. This stress is
not just sexual tension .
Rape is primarily an act of aggreSSion.
According to a leaflet froin Rape Relief
and Reduction (Olympia YW.C.A., 220 E.
Union, Olympia), called "Understanding
and Reacting to Rape," rapists are
" motivated by a need to control and
humiliate another person, not by uncontrollable sexual desire." It also says that
rapists are usually heterosexual males who
can come from any ethnic and socioeconomic background. In the Washington
Crime Wafch pamphlet "Rape. Let's Talk
About It," we find that "a rapist does not
fit into a particular image. There are no
special, identifying features ... In many
cases the rapist is married or has an ongoing sexual relationship with another
woman ." Even in cases where a male is
raped by another male, the perpetrator is
usually heterosexual and the object is,
again, humiliation and control.
Victims of rape are also difficult to
categorize. The idea that a victim can
incite rape with provocative dress or
seductive behavior and, in that case, is
getting what she deserves, seems to be
losing credence. It is, however, one of the
most persistent myths about rape victims.
The wide range of places where assaults
occur and ages of victims demonstrates
that this kind of provocation is not characteristic of the crime. But above all,
overriding a person's right to refuse at any
time is illegal.
Victims are most often women under
30, but rape can happen to people of
either sex at any age. Most rapes happen
in the victim's home. -
Another common place is in a car.
According to a booklet from the Washington State Department os Social and
Health Services (DSHS), called "Sexual
Assault Hurts Us All," 60% of adult rapes
occur between people who know each
other. I n an article by Karen Barrett called
" Date Rape: A Campus Epidemic?" (Ms.
magazine, Sept. '82) a survey by Kent
State University psychology professor Dr.
Mary Koss is cited. In her survey of college students, one in eight women
admitted to having been raped (though
many did not use that word for it), and
about 30% of surveyed males had used
varying degrees of physical or emotional
coercion to obtain sex.
Acquaintance rape may ~ the least
reported and most damaging form of the
crime, because it compour:1ds the effects
of this violent act with the fact that it was
perpetrated by someone judged to be a
friend . On acquaintance rape at co lleges,
Barrett writes:
" At most universities, anti-rape programs are a recent innovation . .. geared
to stranger rape . . . to treatment of victims
rather than prevention . Even on campuses
where rumors of acquaintance rape prevail, administrators tend to report that
they have not been told of any cases.
There have been many incidents where
rapes were hushed up by school officials,
where women were discouraged from
taking legal action, or where men were
subjected to minor disciplinary action. A
standard position is that the victim should
be spared embarrassment. However,
authorities are hardly averse to protect ing
the reputation of an institution ."
Preventing rapes begins with common
sense measures to keep intruders out of
your house, and avoiding situations where
you could be assaulted and be unable to
attract attention. When confronted by a
rapist ina situation where yell ing or
training in assertiveness and self-defense
can be very useful. InA. Nicholas Groth's
book Men Who Rape , offenders were
asked to give advice for victims . In
general, they sa id trying to talk the
assailant out of the attack was safe, even
if not always effective.
Victims who successfully resisted attack
had some common qualities : they were
able to keep self-control and refuse to be
intimidated, be assertive without being
aggressive, and communicate to the
offender that they were real people, not
objects'
" However, not all offenders can be
talked out of an assault In the last
analysis there is no one defense strategy
that will work
In all situations , and the
goal of survival is more important than
the goal of escape
the victim should
not be faulted for not having successfldl y
resisted ," the book cautions .

Radical Differences Between Greener And. Japanese Students
continued Irom page 1
always changing, always becoming obsolete. They must learn how to adapt, to
organize, to research ,and to cooperate,"
Mitsui revealed.
" In Japan, students must not ask about
trivial matters, the questions must be
suitable, they must not embarrass. They
must always be 'other' oriented. Most
people think Japanese students are shy.
They are not . They are very active. In
c lass, though , they are focusing on listening, not talking.".
At TESC, it is different he said, "Evergreen students are very impatient. I ~as
surprised . I have to answer them instantly,
even if it is something trivial.
" At Evergreen you are too self-assertive;
aggressiveness and individuality are important, as opposed to the whole. In lecture many students ask me about things ,
som et imes I am confused. 'Why are they
so act ive and aggressive?' I prepare more
than ten pages of lecture notes for these
questions ."
He continued to describe other differences : " Here, the students and faculty
should be ~qual participants in class. This
does not make you a true student. A student learns from the teacher."
He then discussed Japanese feelings
about independence : "Here, independence is highly valued . In Japan we can't
distinguish independence from selfishness .
In japan , selfishness is evil and independence is evil , in many respects . One must
learn to be dependent. Dependence is
more sophisticated than independence
from the japanese Standpoint. There is a
diVision of labor, a combining of knowledge , a depending on other people We
should always be modest, our knowledge
is very <;mall and imperfect.
" In japan the fo c us is on brotherhood .
We have three major philosophies: brotherhood , liberty and equality. In America,
liberty and equality are also very important but brotherhood is not. In j apan it is
the most important of the three ."
Mitsui had some concrete advice for
Evergreen: "The Evergreen State College
should keep its traditional atmosphere but
should introduce new aspects in order
that the students will not become losers
in the real world. Curriculum should be
considered in order to offer more choices.
Students should be more careful about
choosing their subjects, and the faculty
should tell them more about what they
are teaching." He added that, in his
personal opinion, " Students should be
more disciplined and more realistic."
Along with these observations, however, was some appreciation for certain
Evergreen educational options: "1 think
that internships and individual contracts
are very good . I appreciate such efforts."
Internships especially appealed to him
and he would like to try them at Kobe
University since "students can get academic knowledge and practical
experience."
In addition to approving of these
aspects of the system, he likes some of
the effects that Evergreen's particular
brand of education had on its students :
"In this system a student can be creative
independently. Creativeness of the students is important. It has always been
that students must learn how to be obedient, but now I'm thinking that they should
learn to be more creative and independent."
At The Kobe University of lapan, Mitsui
is an assistant professor in economy, and
also acts as an official consultant for the
local government. He also does economic
and business consulting. This is important
to him because, "1 must keep up with the
business world in order to be a good
professor," he explained.
For the past two quarters Mitsui has
been teaching in the People and the Seas
program. Last quarter he focused on
Japanese culture and economics in the
histori ca l perspective. He has emphasized
Japan's relationship with the sea by talking about historical industries of shipping,

,
fishing and transportation. In some of his
lectures he told Japanese fairy tales and
stories about famous battles. All this was
to show how Japan is dependent on the
sea.
This quarter he showed Japan in a
modern light, including descriptions of
aquaculture, modern fisheries, ship building, the shipping industry, international
trade, the energy industry and other
aspects of modern economy in japan. Last
fall he was a historian; thi s quarter he is ,
happy to say, "1 am a true economist."
He had problems adjusting to the
differences in educational systems and is
pleased to see that his students are starting to realize what he expects from them :
" Fortunately the students are more willing
to learn economics and the business of

the sea . They're deepening their concentration and their research.
"I am discouraged about group discusSions, however, because they don't want
to focus. In a working place you can't increase productivity; after you give your
knowledge, you stop listening. They have
a short attention span."
He explained more about the role of
the sensei: "A sensei is a teacher-brother .
We are go-betweens in marriages and we
help them to find good jobs. In Japan it's,
a fundamental obligation. We spend a lot
of time with social communication. Sometimes students and faculty will go out
together . We got to drink saki and talk.
There must still be distance between the
students and faculty. We must act as big
brothers. "
70's, even though it would have earned
much praise as a monumental film I fear
the importance of its message would have
gone understated. But its release at a time
when people are beginning to realize
they've had enough of the "guns-beforebutter" mentality makes the impact of its
message much more significant.
I don't mean to imply that Gandhi is
merely a message film, it is not. Nor am I
saying that the film flagellates the audience with its message, it doesn't. Gandhi
is a film biography on a grand scale. The
very nature of its subject implies its message, for how could you make a film
about the life of Mohandas Gandhi without showing what he lived for , what he
fought against, and how he fought
against itl
Gandhi's message of bringing about
social change through peaceful noncooperation cut through all religious differences that were strongly instilled in the
Indian people and united them toward a
common goal of freedom for I ndia. This
idea proved to be a powerful tool that
was instrumental to India's Raining freecontinued Irom page 4

probable . The federal government is in
financ ial trouble itself . The State of Washington has a limit to the government's
indebtedness and might find the problems of political acceptance and selling
revenu e bonds insurmountable. The BPA
seems by no means anxious to step in and
help clean up their mess .
Construction could be resumed through
sale to an outside buyer . Both Japan and
California have been approached in this
respect. The Japanese, good capitalists
that they are, remain skeptical. The
utilities in California may be willing to
purchase the plant but only at 30¢ on the
dollar. However, the regional Power Act
and federal law prohibit such a sale to
private utilities, and there is little negotiating time left before the first payments
are due.
In a negotiated settlement, the 88
utilities , some 10,000 bondholders, and
the WPPSS administration would get
together and reach a workable compromise. Thi s option too suffers for lack
of time.
A very lik ely scenario is that the debts
simply will not be paid . Su ch an event ,
termed default , would occur in three steps
over the next six months. First comes the
technic al defaul t, where the ut ilities fail
to m ake their payments to WPPSS. Thi s
has already occured . The second step of
the d efault occurs when WPPSS fails to

Setting the political message aside, this
film by Richard Attenborough is still the
greatest epic since Lawrence of Arabia,
and perhaps of all time. Everything about
this film is excellent, from the acting to
the editing, When I go to a film that's
three hours plus, I usually expect to be
bored at some point. I'm pleased to say
that was not the case with C..andhi John

than demanding your interest, it cultivates
it with every scene.

make its payments to the bond market.
This is slated to occur sometime in May.
The third step, bondholder default, occurs
when the people who purchased the
bonds fail to rece ive the interest payments
due. This , in all probability will occur
in July.
The effects of such a major default
upon the money market are unknown and
potentially catastrophic. It is sobering to
consider that the entire WPPSS debt compares to that of the major third world :
borrowers . The largest private bond issue
in the history of Wall Street, WPPSS
drains 5% of the available capital in the
money market.
No matter how the WPPSS crisis is
resolved , it is bound to have a substantial
effect upon credit availability and interest
rates for many years to come .
Obviously, the financiers back east
would not be pleased by default. Possible
retaliatory measures could include raising
interest rates or making credit unavailable
in the Northwest Whether any of these
steps would be less injurious to Washington then paying over $20 billion for five
heaps of useless mac hi nery has been the
subject of recent debate, with some
claiming default as the most viable
opt ion. As it now appea rs, the proj ect is
swiftly going broke, in exorably drawn
toward default. WPPSS remains a grim
harbinger of debt looming over the futu re
of the Pac ifi c Northwest.

Mose Allison is a living treasure, he's
been making records since before I was
born. Allison has a way of incorporating
many different styles of music and making
them distinctly his own . Nobody does it
quite like Allison; he has a cool , relaxed
vocal quality with a delivery unparalleled
by anyone. We should consider ourselves
very lucky to have such a musi ca l giant
coming to perform at Evergreen. I had a
chance to speak with Allison after one of
hi s sets in Seattle over the weekend .
(P)' I know you have an interest in
English, have you ever written anything
for publication?
Allison: just for my own amusement.
They've got me writing for the album
covers now, I wrote notes for the last one
and I just finished the notes for the new
one that's coming out soon . So that' s
started me off writing again; I'll probably
eventually write something.
(P): Who are your favorite authors?
Allison: Celine, the French guy, is one
of my favorites and Kenneth Patchen, the
American poet. I liked him a lot. You
know,'there's hundreds of people I like. I
like Kurt Vonnegut. It's a long list.
(P): Being from Mississippi, I thought
Faulkner would be big on your list.
Allison: Oh well yeah , I like Faulkner
admire Faulkner but, you know, Faulkner
is completely unique. His way of writing,
I would never attempt anything like that .
He's a completely unique personality and
he really did create a world there .
(P): A lot of your songs are kind of
funny. How did you develop your sense
of humor?
Allison: Yeah, well you know, that's like
a shock absorber (Laughs) . I think most
people agree that humor is a way we cope
with reality, the bad things. I'm one of
these people, you know, if I can make a
joke about something, it doesn't bother
m e so much .
(PI: Are you on the road a lot?
Allison. Yeah, about 40 weeks out of
the year, usually.
(PI: How do you feel about that?
Allison: Well , sometimes it's good,
sometimes it's hard , It's always a challenge, you know. For instance, this last
week I was in Eau Claire, Wisconsin , on
Friday, Minneapolis Saturday and Sunday,
Las Vegas Monday, Redmond, Oregon, on
Tuesday and Wednesday and Seattle
Thursday through Sunday. So, now and
then you hit a rough three or four days
~ like that. It's like a survival test.

(P): Do you prefer small clubs to larger
auditoriums?
Allison: Overall , yeah, generally speaking, I do. Although there are some situations where if the sound is· good, if you
can hear yourself
That's the main problem with big halls and things, a lot of
times there's echo and if you just got
there at 7:00 and went in to do a sound
check and the people, if they don't know
exactly what they're dOing, or if it's not
right, it can be a problem. So the problem with that sort of thing is just the
physical sound, and so forth .
(P): Do you playa lot of auditoriums?
Allison: Not a lot, no. I still play mostly
clubs.
(P): How do you feel about your dealings with the record industry, have they
treated you pretty well?
Allison: Well , I'm really not that involved with the record industry (Laughs).
The only time I've ever gotten much out
of the record industry is when some rock
band does one of my songs or somethin',
Yeah, the most money I ever made out of l
records is when the Who did one of my
songs ["Young rvlan's Blues"]. That was .
the only time I ever made any dent in the
record industry.
(P): What label are you on now?
Allison: I' m with Elektra Musician now.
I had an album out this year (Middle
Class White Boy] and they're going to
release another one soon, I think in
maybe March or April. It'll be a live date
from Montreaux; it was recorded last summer with Billy Cobham on drums, Jack
Bruce on bass, Lou Donaldson sittin' in on
(PI: You seem to draw on many different influen ces ancj styles, who would
you say has had the biggest influence on
your music?
Allison: Oh yeah, well you know there's
so many people. Every night when I'm
playin' , I think a lot of basic influences .
Starting with Louis Armstrong, Nat Cole,
people like that, going all the way through
the blues people and on into contemporary classical pianists and the whole
thing, you know.
(P): Is there anybody today that has an
influence on you?
Allison: Well , I'm sort of in the process
of just trying to digest all the things I'm
interested in right now. I really don't
listen to other jazz players that much .
,uess I did .. intentionnlly for a long time,
'cause I didn't want to hl' unduly influ('n eed by anybody elSE' My line is tha t on
<lny given night all good jan players plLlY

all that. Everybody hears it aiL So, all jazz
players have the same influences, it's ju st

that, I guess. So, it's somethin ' I like doin ',
it's challenging and it's never the same
and I enjoy it. I enjoy traveling most of
the time, and it' s the kind of thing that
you can always add to and subtract from
and divide. It's different all the time. It's
just a process, there's no solution, you
know, there's no final place , Of course,
you're always working towards the ultimate performance But you never know
