Affirmative Action Reclaimed as Equal Opportunity

UNESCO mends its ways amid relief over press freedom
UNESCO delegates at Nairobi rejected a Soviet bid to create Third World state press controls and adopted a milder Tunisian resolution to ease Third World complaints about news coverage. The conference also eased anti Israel bias by allowing Israel to join a Western European regional group, while the U.S. keeps its $38 million dues embargo. A column notes the discrepancy between UNESCO’s actions and calls for investigative scrutiny of religious relics in Jerusalem and urges nonpolitical humanitarian conduct.
