To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

It is time for the Harvard student body and student bodies on the whole to decide whether they will allow their repugnance for a particular tactic to demoralize their well-directed political senses. The issues involved are ROTC and university complicity in the current war effort. Students should not allow the political and moral concerns of dissenting students to be clouded over or ignored by charges of trespassing on university property. The quality of a conscientiously objecting act is radically different from a criminal one and in no way should merit the type of police action taken against it here at Harvard. The malicious clubbing of unarmed demonstrators, to my mind, constitutes criminal negligence on the part of the police and represents an intolerable violation of human rights. Bill Puka, GSAS
