lation to the Vietnam war. His subject will be "The ghetto and Vietnam: the mirror and the image."
A close associate of Dr. Martin Luther King for the past nine years, Bevel was a leader in the Nashville sit-ins of 1980 and in 1961 spent two months in a Mississippi jail for civil rights activity. Later he organized the mass demonstrations in Birmingham, Alabama.
Since April last year, he has been director of the National Mobilization Committee to end the war in Vietnam.
Bevel speaks at 8 p.m. on February 29 in the Peretz School Auditorium, 6184 Ash Street in Vancouver.

Salmon Commission Makes No Changes
No changes will be made in proposed regulations for 1968 sockeye and pink salmon fishing in Canadian Convention waters, the International Pacific Salmon Fisheries Commission announced February 8.
Recommendations submitted to the fishing industry on December 19 call for closure to all net fishing in Area 20 from July 4 to August 10, with the Commission re-
Brief Urges Canadian Aid
Vancouver lawyer John Stanton will appear before the external affairs committee of the House of Commons to speak to a brief recently submitted by Canadian Aid for Vietnam Civilians, it was reported this week. The brief asks that Canada, through the federal government, give substantial aid to all sections of Vietnam, stressing Canadian responsibility as a member of the International Control Commission.
The brief points out that Canadian government assistance presently provided has been limited to small parts of Vietnam still under United States control where not more than 10 percent of the population lives. The remaining 90 percent has never received official assistance from Canada, although according to the International Committee of the Red Cross, the greatest need is in active operation zones.
"Our impression is that assistance to needy and wounded civilians is a trump card in the hands of the Saigon government with a view to exercising control over the population," the Red Cross reports. "This ulterior motive is not compatible with Red Cross help. We are therefore trying to bring our assistance to victims in the battle zones."
linquishing control on August 11. Areas 17 and 18 and District 1 will have two days fishing per week from July 14 to September 28.
In U.S. Convention waters, the Commission said it would exempt state Area 4 from regulations after July 28 "to allow the harvest of hatchery produced spring salmon destined for Washington state streams."
"The catch of Fraser River sock-eye during the period of exemption in Area 4 is expected to be negligible and of no importance to management of the 1968 sock-eye fishery," it said.
In a move described as "experimental for the year 1968 only," the Commission announced it would attempt to reduce friction between U.S. gillnetters and seiners by alternating the weekly starting time for gillnets each week through the season.
Complying with a request from its advisory board's U.S. gillnet representative, the Commission said gillnetters will commence on the evening of uly 14 and alternate weekly thereafter between Monday evening and Sunday evening openings. Seiners will start fishing on Monday mornings all season.
