from Chris Arthur

The following statement has been issued by NALSO:

"At its meeting on May 9th, the Executive Committee of the National Association of Labour Student Organisations (representing 6,695 students) decided unanimously to protest most vigorously at the sentences meted out to Dr. Alexander and his associates on charges of "sabotage."

The case of Dr. Alexander, who won two doctorates in German philology, at Cape University, and at Tubingen, is a further stage in the repression of our fellow students and scholars in South Africa, whose academic and political liberties are more and more curtailed by the persecution of the Verwoerd Government."
