Bhutto: peace with democracy
By Debbie Richards
DC Copy editor
Ex-Prime Minister of Pakistan
Benazir Bhutto espoused a phi¬
losophy of cooperation and integ¬
rity to ensure global democracy.
Bhutto, appearing last night as
the first lecturer in the (all Univer¬
sity Lecture Series, stressed the
need (or worldwide democratic
reform to guarantee freedom and
human rights for the peoples of
the world.
"Freedomis universal and lives
in the heart of every man and
woman, whether tf s people in my
country or from a forming village
in the Ukraine. People don't want
to die wanting freedom in their
lives,'' she said.
Bhutto, speaking to a full ca¬
pacity crowd in the North Gym,
addressed The Struggle for
Democracy.'' That struggle, she
said, isa long, hard climb.
"We must recognize that de¬
mocracy, particularly an emerg¬
ing democracy, is extremely frag¬
ile -. democratic nations need to
form a consensus. Democratic
people choose their government."
Bhutto became Prime Minister
of Pakistan In 1968. In doing so,
she became the first woman to rule
an Islamic country. Pakistan is a
nation of 110 million people that is
fraught with economic, social and
political ills. Her term in office
was tumultuous and brief — 20
months — and was marred by
charges of corruption
In 1989, she was removed from
office by a political coup. Bhutto
likened the coup in her country to
the attempted coup in the Soviet
Sec LECTU RE, page 4
"I will continue against tha forces of tyranny and I am determined to seek for my people the freedom of democracy."
At a press conference yesterday before her evening lecture, Benazir Bhutto tells the audience her battle to Influence
the political socio-economic structure of Pakistan will proceed. Bhutto was prime minister ot Pakistan In 1988.
Association of democratic states called for
By Syed Kamil Zaheer
DC Staff writer
Commenting that she 'was
happy to be here," Benazir Bhutto,
ex-Prime Minster of Pakistan and
first women leader of an Islamic
country, gave a press conference
at CSUF yesterday.
Bhutto promoted her idea for
an 'association of new democratic
states." She said she was concerned
that with the recent fall of commu¬
nism, countries might seek nar¬
row identities and there should be
an "ideological platform" to pre¬
vent this.
She said, however, that Paki¬
stan under the present government
"would not promote an associa¬
tion of democratic countries."
Bhutto said there were about
10 nations who had responded to
her idea. And she castigated her
critics who said her idea of asso¬
ciation of democratic nations was
just to play to her "western audi¬
ence."
In the 1960s, there were 22

Children's center
spending restricted
By Renee Ruelas
DC Staff writer
The entire CSUF campus is
reeling the budget crunch and the
Campus Children's Center is no
exception. ^
Valarie Kuczler, center direc¬
tor, has had to tighten spending to
keep quality care for the children.
Kuczler, who has been at the
center since 1978, said she's had to
cut equipment and supplies spend¬
ing. "We've had to be more cau-
Some students have expressed
concern about the effects of the
budget on th* Center.
Andres Fernandez, a graduate
student with a daughter in the
Center, said he was very concerned
at the beginning of the semester.
"1 thought there would be no
room or an outrageous increase in
price," said Fernandez.
The Campus Children's Center
receives its main funding from the
state Department of Education
about $186,000. The center also
receives funding from the Child
Care Food Program and the Cali¬
fornia State University Chancel¬
lor. ASI allocations usually run
about $54,000.
ASI President Andres Montoya
.said Tuesday he would like to
protect the funds given to the
center, but at this time the funding
is in question.
The children's center didn't
receive funding for a cost of living
increase. And the biggest cut —
$3,000 — came from the state
Department of Education.
Assistant Dean of Students Bob
Lundal who oversees the ranter,
said he anticipated the cuts in
funding. He said there have been
no reductions in number of chil¬
dren allowed in the program.
Nearly 100 children are housed
in the center this year — guide¬
lines prevent any increase in the
number of children. Of th 200 chil¬
dren on last year's waiting list,
only 40 new families were ac¬
cepted. The children in the center

Budget cuts delay
new UC campus'
construction
By Yu Ting Huang
DC Staff writer
The new University of Cali-
fomia campus in the San Joaquin
Valley may still open on itsorigi-
nal schedule in 1998 despite se¬
vere state budget cuts.
There's il remote chance, bu t
we're saying the year 2000 in¬
stead of 1998, to give it two more
years," said Mark Aydelotte,
regional public affairs director
fat the University of California.
The 92953 million budget
deficit for fiscal year 1991-92 has
already delayed the Environ-
ment Impact Report for one year,
said Aydelotte.
The ElR, originally planned
to be conducted on more than
three sites, is a research study to
determine if construction of the
size required for the UC would
end anger the surround i ng envi¬
ronment lite wildlife and rivers.
"We wilt conduct the report
in spring of 1992. Wemay choose
oneor hvo or even all three of the
sites to conduct the report de¬
pending on criteria,* he said.
