Dear Toby, June 20, 1996

The Barrington Branch of the American Association of University Women (AAUW) would like to ask the Jewish Federation to provide a speaker(s) on, "The forces that create refugees, the definition of a refugee, and why and how U.S. organizations help refugees." Besides a speaker presenting a general overview, a refugee who could discuss first hand experiences, would promote a deeper understanding of being a refugee. A 15-20 minute question/answer period would enhance this program.

The evening would be free and open to the public with a special invitation to local high schools' Global Studies and 20th Century Issues classes. We anticipate an audience of about 100 or more people. Since the program is free and we are basically an educational organization, we could only provide an honorarium of $50 to $100.

The program is scheduled for Monday evening, October 16, 7:45 -9:00 p.m. at the Barrington Area Library, 505 North Northwest Highway, Barrington. We would like to take the speaker(s) to dinner prior to the program.

We look forward to hearing from you. (708) 381 2118

Dear Kaye Shinker,

This letter is to confirm our date for you to speak at our AAUW meeting on Monday, May 15, 1995, at the Barrington Area Public Library. We agreed upon the 40 minute presentation with less emphasis on the projects and more on the people and their hospitality, although we would like to hear about the projects too.

The Mon., May 15th meeting begins at 7:30pm for a 30 minute social hour. Your program will begin at about 8:10pm. We must be finished by 9pm as the Library closes at this time. I will have an extension cord for you. If you need anything else please let me know.

I have enclosed a map for you to find the Barrington Library. Thank you for agreeing to speak to our AAUW branch about your interesting experiences in Russia. We will make a $60 donation, in your name, to our branch EFP.

Sincerely Yours,

Arlene Martin President of Barrington Branch AAUW

Background Info. and possible Intn'l Forum Topics:

Pacific Trade

"The future of Asia will be determined by the ability of countries to cooperate and contribute to security and stability in the region. Issues of human rights and environmental quality continue to be concerns. Countries outside Asia will need to search for new areas of collaboration as change continues to push the Asia-Pacific region to the forefront of international economic dynamism. Possible topics or perspectives: :How—Asians—and Westerners view each other". "Japanese attitudes toward westerners: A Product of History."

orces that have shaped U.S. attitudes toward the Chinese." "Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation: Trade block or prosperity sphere."

1 --"China and the East Asian economic powerhouse." "The future of Hong Kong afteri997."

The International Internet: Uses & Abuses

Uses: Schools Business Government - U. S. and other Individuals

Software author Philip Zimmermann received an electronic mail message from Lativa. "If dictatorship takes over Russia, your PGP is widespread from Baltic to Far East now and will help democratic people if necessary. Thanks."

PGP: Pretty Good Privacy is a program for scrambling computer messages.

Anti Encryption: U.S. and local governments. Sacramental, Ca police lament that last year PGP encryption blocked

them from reading the computer diary of a convicted pedophile and finding critical links in a suspected child-pornography ring. This could signal the end of computer forensics before it even gets off the ground.

Encryption is unbreakable. Unable to decrypt information on computers seized in drug raids or businesses from keeping a double set of books - the real set encrypted in PGP.

Pro Encryption: World-wide use of Mr. Zimmermann's software has altered forever notions of government surveillance, electronic privacy and export bans on cryptographery. PGP aids crime. William Spernow, a computer-crime specialists with Search Group, a federally funded police training firm in Sacramento, Ca predicts criminals will routinely encrypt information within two years.

Fear that hackers may intercept e-mail has spawned a grass-roots cult of PGP users in the Internet community.

Authors encrypts chapters of books to publisher fearing that otherwise could be plagiarized.

PGP helps make the otherwise leaky Internet safe for commerce. Members of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a group that advocates electronic free speech, can pay dues by sending PGP encrypted credit-card numbers over computer networks.

Human-rights advocates who work for the Human Rights Project of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Washington teaches activists in El Salvador and Guatemala to use PGP. "In this business lots of people have been killed," Mr. Salcedo says.

Alan Sawson, a writer living in Thailand, says rebels opposing the regime in neighboring Burma are using PGP to encrypt information sent among rebel groups. Before use of PGP became widespread, Mr. Dawson wrote Mr. Zimmerman, "Captured documents have resulted directly in arrests, including whole families, and their torture and death."

Federal laws covering munitions prohibit exporting encryption software without a license.
