No one In this body seeks to censor or restrict the debate on South Africa. This resolution simply expresses our willingness to respond. in kind. to South African restrictions. An illustration of what we hope to accomplish is if Fatima Meer Is not allowed to come to the United States. Then the chairman of the publications review panel responsible for press censorship could be denied a visa. Perhaps this action will galvanize a body of opinion that has always been exempt from the harsh curbs of apartheid. Unfortunately. spreading the political pain may be the only way to make gains.
