ON PROTECTING CHILDREN FROM SPEECH AMITAI ETZIONI* INTRODUCrION When freedom of speech comes into conflict with the protection of children, how should this conflict be resolved? What principles should guide such deliberations? Can one rely on parents and educa- tors (and more generally on voluntary means) to protect children from harmful cultural materials (such as Internet pornography and violent movies) or is government intervention necessary? What dif- ference does historical context make for the issue at hand? Are all minors to be treated the same? What is the scope of the First Amendment rights of children in the first place? These are the ques- tions here explored. The approach here differs from two polar approaches that can be used to position it. According to a key civil libertarian position, mate- rials that are said to harm children actually do not have such an effect, and even if such harm did exist, adults should not be reduced to read- ing only what is suitable for children.

IAPAC focuses exclusively on domestic policy issues such as civil rights and immigration, and it encourages Americans of Iranian descent to actively participate in civic affairs. Mission • To support and promote the election of candidates for federal, state and local office, regardless of party affiliation, who are attuned to the domestic needs and issues of the Iranian American community • To support and promote Iranian American participation in civic affairs Issue Advocacy Civil Liberties: Balancing Civil Liberties and National Security in the Post-9/11 Era. Protecting our security and ensuring that the government does not infringe upon basic constitutional rights have long been important issues for civil libertarians and certain ethnic communities. IAPAC believes that our government must take the appropriate measures to protect our nation from further atrocities, but that it can do so without eliminating basic constitutional rights. Immigration: Immigration reform that is driven by proper national security concerns and remedies based on a fair and accurate appraisal of deficiencies in the immigration process, and not simply on national origin. Specifically, IAPAC advocates for a fair and measured execution of federal regulations governing the issuance of non-immigrant and immigrant visas for Iranian nationals.

Carlson Sharyn C. Alvarez =============================================================== LAST WEEK FEDERAL FARM COMMODITY PROGRAMS - The House Agriculture Committee (Chairman Larry Combest, TX) held a full committee hearing on federal farm commodity programs.

The Committee asked the witnesses to provide details on the direction they would like to see farm policy take in the 2002 Farm Bill. The National Farmers Union (NFU) stated that the primary goal of commodity programs should be to provide economic stability and opportunity for producers over time consistent with a responsible view of market realities, resource sustainable and food security and safety issues. The National Association of Wheat Growers (NAWG) stated that despite the economic difficulties over the last three years, the 1996 Farm Bill continues to serve the nation's farmers and ranchers well. The NAWG made positive comments about conservation programs as well. Questions included the concern with market signals, agriculture competition abroad, export values and currency exchange rates. The Committee also discussed reserve programs, market support levels and research of alternative uses of wheat. The Committee also posed questions ranging from trade issues, foreign competition, and set aside programs. LEGISLATION OF NOTE The following Bills of significance to NRCS and conservation have been introduced. BILL MEMBER PURPOSE H.R. 960 Rep.
