Welcome to the second year of EthInves. A what a year it's
been: a new tax environment, the Soviet-U.S. missile treaty,
the rising Latin American debt crisis, the falling dollar,
the ever-present trade deficit and how can you mention 1987
without mentioning Bloody Monday.
In spite of all this uncertainty and rapid change, you are
still looking for sound investment options. Your task is to
earn a comfortable return on your investment while monitoring
its social, political and environmental impact. No small
task.
I hope that the information and resources contained in
EthInves will make those decisions a little bit easier for
you. As you may have noticed, ver. 2.0 is considerably
larger than 1.3 I hope that you find much of this new
material helpful. If not, write or e-mail me and let me
know. What do you need? What don't you use? What can't you
find?
My future plans for EthInves include more ancillary material
that may be of interest to EthInves users. For example, this
edition includes a list of all the nuclear free zones world
wide. The next edition (ver 2.1, 7/88) will have a database
of the members of Congress including address, phone and
committee memberships. I have recently acquired Borland's
Quattro. Expect to see much of the financial data in
spreadsheet/database form from now on. If there's interest
from folks, I can also bundle other author's shareware: IRA
calculators, loan rate utils, etc.
The response the last 6 months to EthInves has been very
positive. If this good fortune continues, EthInves will
become a quarterly publication by year's end.
EthInves readers can receive a free sample copy of RECON, the
newsletter that keeps its eye on the Pentagon, by writing
editor Chris Robinson and mentioning EthInves.
The periodical of the year award goes to The Whole Earth
Review for their Winter '87 issue "Signal". If you are a
hacker, media freak, samizdat or committed culture watcher
you'll want to catch up with a copy of this excellent
magazine. $5 from Whole Earth Review, 27 Gate Five Road,
Sausalito, CA, 94965. In fact, you should be a subscriber
($20/year).
Ramblings ...
With all-digit phone numbers, how long are they going to keep
putting letters on phones? In other words, when will we lose
being able to spell out phone numbers?
When is someone going to put a clock/calendar into my
answering machine so that I can program it like I do my VCR?
I could simply tell it my regular working hours and never
have that sudden flash the minute I get to work.
Now that all of us with day gigs are in the habit of
timeshifting David Letterman AND VCR's are in 52% of American
homes, when will the advertisers get hip and push for
programming around the clock?
What public library will be first to put a jukebox of
CD-ROM's on-line accessable via your modem? Local call so
that's free. All we need now are lots and lots of reference
books and journals on disk with an elegant search routine on
the front end. I'm not holding my breath but one day ...
Anybody else get a mailing from their local cable company
offering a computer hook-up, software and on-line services as
an option? Will cable companies with their large installed
infrastructure start to rival phone line based information
utilities (CompuServe, The Source, etc.)?
I've been hearing more and more about progressive personal
computing throughout the Soviet bloc. Will glasnost bring
about telecommunication and floppy disk exchanges with folks
in the Soviet bloc? What would a public Soviet-US computer
network be like? Will your local user group have a sisterSIG
in Poland?
Can you honestly tell me you have seen a non-trivial
HyperCard stack? Not a glorified hyperDA but a real app I'll
use day in and day out. I have faith. Just wish I had the
time to play with HyperTalk. One of my few New Year's
resolutions, along with PostScript.
If I were to win the lottery tommorrow, I'd buy a Compaq 386
to run Windows386. I would never turn it off because I'd
configure Windows to run comm software in the background and
periodically download stuff from designated networks. The
rest of the time it's in auto answer mode. And when I sit
down to use it, all of this is transparent to me.
Or I'd get a Mac II with an AST 286 card and wait for Apple
to release A/UX, their flavor of Unix and be able to run all
three operating systems.
Then I'd get a 976- exchange number locally or a 900 area
code number nationwide and you could download stuff from me,
having it billed to your phone. I'd don't know what the
phone company's attitude is but you could have pay as you go
information utilities.
The Spell-Checkers-Are-Great-But ... Dept.: They are but
until they're hypertext or randomized or in some different
form, you're gonna miss out on all the great new words you
learn while you're looking for the something else in a
printed dictionary.
Once again, thanks to all of you have provided me with both
information and inspiration during the last year. EthInves
started with my own search for ethical investment vehicles
for my own I.R.A. After looking high and low for what little
information is generally available, I decided to share this
information with you.

Community development and revolving loan funds provide the
credit and financial support that small businesses, community
groups, cooperatives and others need but are unable to obtain
from more traditional sources (banks and savings & loans).
Because the focus of community development loan funds is
local, you'll know exactly where your money is and what it is
doing. Help strengthen your community by supporting a local
community loan or revolving loan fund.
As of 6/30/87, N.A.C.D.L.F. members had 604 loans outstanding
totaling $14,844,000. (This doesn't include loans commited
but not yet disbursed.) They also had 1,522 lenders with a
total capitalization of $34,181,000.

Beware of recent mergers, spin offs and acquisitions. The
ever turbulent business world has blurred this list of parent
companies (e.g. Sperry & Burroughs haved merged and are now
calling themselves Unisys and GE bought RCA etc.). You'll
have to check to see who's doing what today. This is a good
place to start.

I have been unable to locate or put together an up-to-date
list of nuclear weapons contractors. To the best of my
knowledge there is no one place you can go to get a
comprehensive list. The best I've been able to come up with
is the following. The odds are if a company was heavily
involved in nuclear weapons research and/or production in
1983, they still are now. I hope to have more comprehensive
information included in future updates of EthInves. A more

publication. You can print all or part of it out or use it
as a handy on-disk reference when you need a specific piece
of information.
EthInves is packed full of information of interst to people
who are concerned about how their investments are impacting
the world around them. EthInves' files contain information
about newsletters, magazines and books on ethical investment;
financial profiles of socially conscious mutual funds, money
market funds and other investment vehicles; and lists of
utility companies involved with nuclear power plants. You'll
also find the top 100 Dept. of Defense contractors, all the
Strategic Defense Initiative (Star Wars) contractors, the
companies that still do business in South Africa and much,
much more. I strongly suggest you browse through the MISC
file. :-)
EthInves is shareware and you are encouraged to pass it on to
friends, relatives and co-workers. Each copy includes an
archived version to make uploading and downloading EthInves
both quicker and cheaper. The necessary archiving and de-
archiving utilities are enclosed. All I ask are two things
of you: that you distribute all of the EthInves files in
total without changing the contents and that it not be sold
for more than the cost of reproduction and distrubtion. I
still retain the copyright to EthInves.

>>> >>> SOUTH AFRICA & SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE INVESTING <<< <<<
>>> Introduction <<<
No other facet of the ethical investment movement has
received as much attention or had as deep an impact as the
divestment movement. Public outcry and investor pressure has
played a pivotal role in pressuring American companies into
leaving South Africa.
As an investor you must decide what level of involvement with
South Africa you are comfortable with. Many companies have
responded to public pressure by ending their direct investment
but continue to profit through franchises, licensing agreements
or other means that let them have their cake and eat it too.
On June 3, 1987, Rev. Leon Sullivan abandoned his efforts of
trying to influence Pretoria through the examples set by
American businesses in South Africa and called for a complete
withdrawal. You must decide for yourself if a company's
signing of the Sullivan Principles was a skirt to hide behind
or was a sincere effort to bring about progressive change.
For interesting, if disheartening, articles on the impact of
divestment on South Africa, consult The New York Times,
7/27/87, p21; New York Times, 9/7/87, p17; Wall Street
Journal, 9/21/87, p20.
Five organizations active in the fight against apartheid have
recently issued their own "Guidelines for Divestment". A
copy of their statement follows.
>>> Guidelines for Divestment <<<
>>> signed 1/87 <<<
We support an end to all corporate involvement in or with South
Africa and Namibia. A corporation is doing business in or with
the Republic of South Africa or Namibia if it, its parent, or its
subsidiaries:
1) have direct investments in South Africa or Namibia, or have
entered into franchise, licensing or management agreements with or
for any entity in those countries; or
2) are financial institutions that have not prohibited new
investments, loans, credits or related services, or the renewal of
existing agreements, including those for the purpose of trade,
with any entity in those countries; or
3) have more than 5% of their common stock beneficially owned or
controlled by a South African entity.
A company with operations in South Africa or Namibia for the sole
purpose of reporting the news shall not be considered doing
business in those countries.

>>> DEFENSE CONTRACTORS <<<
Beware of recent mergers, spin offs and acquisitions. The
ever turbulent business world has blurred this list of parent
companies (e.g. Sperry & Burroughs haved merged and are now
calling themselves Unisys and GE bought RCA etc.). You'll
have to check to see who's doing what today. This is a good
place to start.

>>> NUCLEAR WEAPONS CONTRACTORS <<<
I have been unable to locate or put together an up-to-date
list of nuclear weapons contractors. To the best of my
knowledge there is no one place you can go to get a
comprehensive list. The best I've been able to come up with
is the following. The odds are if a company was heavily
involved in nuclear weapons research and/or production in
1983, they still are now. I hope to have more comprehensive
information included in future updates of EthInves. A more
up to date list will soon be available from:

Welcome to the second year of EthInves. A what a year it's
been: a new tax environment, the Soviet-U.S. missile treaty,
the rising Latin American debt crisis, the falling dollar,
the ever-present trade deficit and how can you mention 1987
without mentioning Bloody Monday.
In spite of all this uncertainty and rapid change, you are
still looking for sound investment options. Your task is to
earn a comfortable return on your investment while monitoring
its social, political and environmental impact. No small
task.
I hope that the information and resources contained in
EthInves will make those decisions a little bit easier for
you. As you may have noticed, ver. 2.0 is considerably
larger than 1.3 I hope that you find much of this new
material helpful. If not, write or e-mail me and let me
know. What do you need? What don't you use? What can't you
find?
My future plans for EthInves include more ancillary material
that may be of interest to EthInves users. For example, this
edition includes a list of all the nuclear free zones world
wide. The next edition (ver 2.1, 7/88) will have a database
of the members of Congress including address, phone and
committee memberships. I have recently acquired Borland's
Quattro. Expect to see much of the financial data in
spreadsheet/database form from now on. If there's interest
from folks, I can also bundle other author's shareware: IRA
calculators, loan rate utils, etc.
The response the last 6 months to EthInves has been very
positive. If this good fortune continues, EthInves will
become a quarterly publication by year's end.
EthInves readers can receive a free sample copy of RECON, the
newsletter that keeps its eye on the Pentagon, by writing
editor Chris Robinson and mentioning EthInves.
The periodical of the year award goes to The Whole Earth
Review for their Winter '87 issue "Signal". If you are a
hacker, media freak, samizdat or committed culture watcher
you'll want to catch up with a copy of this excellent
magazine. $5 from Whole Earth Review, 27 Gate Five Road,
Sausalito, CA, 94965. In fact, you should be a subscriber
($20/year).
Ramblings ...
With all-digit phone numbers, how long are they going to keep
putting letters on phones? In other words, when will we lose
being able to spell out phone numbers?
When is someone going to put a clock/calendar into my
answering machine so that I can program it like I do my VCR?
I could simply tell it my regular working hours and never
have that sudden flash the minute I get to work.
Now that all of us with day gigs are in the habit of
timeshifting David Letterman AND VCR's are in 52% of American
homes, when will the advertisers get hip and push for
programming around the clock?
What public library will be first to put a jukebox of
CD-ROM's on-line accessable via your modem? Local call so
that's free. All we need now are lots and lots of reference
books and journals on disk with an elegant search routine on
the front end. I'm not holding my breath but one day ...
Anybody else get a mailing from their local cable company
offering a computer hook-up, software and on-line services as
an option? Will cable companies with their large installed
infrastructure start to rival phone line based information
utilities (CompuServe, The Source, etc.)?
I've been hearing more and more about progressive personal
computing throughout the Soviet bloc. Will glasnost bring
about telecommunication and floppy disk exchanges with folks
in the Soviet bloc? What would a public Soviet-US computer
network be like? Will your local user group have a sisterSIG
in Poland?
Can you honestly tell me you have seen a non-trivial
HyperCard stack? Not a glorified hyperDA but a real app I'll
use day in and day out. I have faith. Just wish I had the
time to play with HyperTalk. One of my few New Year's
resolutions, along with PostScript.
If I were to win the lottery tommorrow, I'd buy a Compaq 386
to run Windows386. I would never turn it off because I'd
configure Windows to run comm software in the background and
periodically download stuff from designated networks. The
rest of the time it's in auto answer mode. And when I sit
down to use it, all of this is transparent to me.
Or I'd get a Mac II with an AST 286 card and wait for Apple
to release A/UX, their flavor of Unix and be able to run all
three operating systems.
Then I'd get a 976- exchange number locally or a 900 area
code number nationwide and you could download stuff from me,
having it billed to your phone. I'd don't know what the
phone company's attitude is but you could have pay as you go
information utilities.
The Spell-Checkers-Are-Great-But ... Dept.: They are but
until they're hypertext or randomized or in some different
form, you're gonna miss out on all the great new words you
learn while you're looking for the something else in a
printed dictionary.
Once again, thanks to all of you have provided me with both
information and inspiration during the last year. EthInves
started with my own search for ethical investment vehicles
for my own I.R.A. After looking high and low for what little
information is generally available, I decided to share this
information with you.

Community development and revolving loan funds provide the
credit and financial support that small businesses, community
groups, cooperatives and others need but are unable to obtain
from more traditional sources (banks and savings & loans).
Because the focus of community development loan funds is
local, you'll know exactly where your money is and what it is
doing. Help strengthen your community by supporting a local
community loan or revolving loan fund.
As of 6/30/87, N.A.C.D.L.F. members had 604 loans outstanding
totaling $14,844,000. (This doesn't include loans commited
but not yet disbursed.) They also had 1,522 lenders with a
total capitalization of $34,181,000.

The On-disk Almanac of Ethical Investing
copyright 1988 Jerry Whiting
PO Box 20821, Seattle, WA 98102
>>> >>> DETAILS <<< <<<
EthInves is an shareware almanac that provides you with handy
reference material on socially responsible investing.
EthInves is distributed as both ASCII text-only files
(MS-DOS) and MacWrite files (Macintosh). To begin using
EthInves, just open the EthInves files with your favorite
word processor or place the files into a PageMaker
publication. You can print all or part of it out or use it
as a handy on-disk reference when you need a specific piece
of information.
EthInves is packed full of information of interst to people
who are concerned about how their investments are impacting
the world around them. EthInves' files contain information
about newsletters, magazines and books on ethical investment;
financial profiles of socially conscious mutual funds, money
market funds and other investment vehicles; and lists of
utility companies involved with nuclear power plants. You'll
also find the top 100 Dept. of Defense contractors, all the
Strategic Defense Initiative (Star Wars) contractors, the
companies that still do business in South Africa and much,
much more. I strongly suggest you browse through the MISC
file. :-)
EthInves is shareware and you are encouraged to pass it on to
friends, relatives and co-workers. Each copy includes an
archived version to make uploading and downloading EthInves
both quicker and cheaper. The necessary archiving and de-
archiving utilities are enclosed. All I ask are two things
of you: that you distribute all of the EthInves files in
total without changing the contents and that it not be sold
for more than the cost of reproduction and distrubtion. I
still retain the copyright to EthInves.
If you find EthInves of use, please become a registered owner
for $20. Registration to this biannual almanac gives you a
year's subscription. You get two copies: the one you have
now and the next scheduled release. EthInves issues come out
in January and July.
I welcome feedback, suggestions for improvement and
corrections of errors or omissions. Please tell me where you
heard about EthInves. Many thanks to all of you who have
helped me compile and distribute this material. I always
appreciate your feedback.
THE MATERIAL IN ETHINVES IS FOR RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY. IT
IS NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE NOR IS IT TO BE INTERPRETTED AS
FINANCIAL COUNSELING. IT IS FOR YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION;
HOW YOU APPLY IT WITH YOUR MONEY IS YOUR BUSINESS.

>>> >>> SOUTH AFRICA & SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE INVESTING <<< <<<
>>> Introduction <<<
No other facet of the ethical investment movement has
received as much attention or had as deep an impact as the
divestment movement. Public outcry and investor pressure has
played a pivotal role in pressuring American companies into
leaving South Africa.
As an investor you must decide what level of involvement with
South Africa you are comfortable with. Many companies have
responded to public pressure by ending their direct investment
but continue to profit through franchises, licensing agreements
or other means that let them have their cake and eat it too.
On June 3, 1987, Rev. Leon Sullivan abandoned his efforts of
trying to influence Pretoria through the examples set by
American businesses in South Africa and called for a complete
withdrawal. You must decide for yourself if a company's
signing of the Sullivan Principles was a skirt to hide behind
or was a sincere effort to bring about progressive change.
For interesting, if disheartening, articles on the impact of
divestment on South Africa, consult The New York Times,
7/27/87, p21; New York Times, 9/7/87, p17; Wall Street
Journal, 9/21/87, p20.
Five organizations active in the fight against apartheid have
recently issued their own "Guidelines for Divestment". A
copy of their statement follows.
>>> Guidelines for Divestment <<<
>>> signed 1/87 <<<
We support an end to all corporate involvement in or with South
Africa and Namibia. A corporation is doing business in or with
the Republic of South Africa or Namibia if it, its parent, or its
subsidiaries:
1) have direct investments in South Africa or Namibia, or have
entered into franchise, licensing or management agreements with or
for any entity in those countries; or
2) are financial institutions that have not prohibited new
investments, loans, credits or related services, or the renewal of
existing agreements, including those for the purpose of trade,
with any entity in those countries; or
3) have more than 5% of their common stock beneficially owned or
controlled by a South African entity.
A company with operations in South Africa or Namibia for the sole
purpose of reporting the news shall not be considered doing
business in those countries.

Beware of recent mergers, spin offs and acquisitions. The

>>> NUCLEAR WEAPONS CONTRACTORS <<<
I have been unable to locate or put together an up-to-date
list of nuclear weapons contractors. To the best of my
knowledge there is no one place you can go to get a
comprehensive list. The best I've been able to come up with
is the following. The odds are if a company was heavily
involved in nuclear weapons research and/or production in
1983, they still are now. I hope to have more comprehensive
information included in future updates of EthInves. A more
up to date list will soon be available from:

>>> >>> NUCLEAR FREE ZONES LIST <<< <<<
>>> as of 10/87 <<<
Why care about Nuclear Free Zones? If you don't live in one,
why concern yourself with something four states away?
Remember my friend, the arms build-up, nuclear fall out and
nuclear waste know no geographic boundaries. We all live at
Chernobyl.
As an investor you may look to municipal bonds for guaranteed
long term growth. With munis you can be reasonably sure of
where your money is going and what it is being used for.
You might like to support communities that have taken a
stand against nuclear power and/or nuclear weapons.
Or you may notice by looking at the list that your city or
county is not on the list. Time to get busy ... Nuclear
Free America claims that14,914,397 Americans live in 139
nuclear free zones in this country.
Or perhaps you have some vacation time coming up.
There are lists of all the nuclear free zones in America, US
NFZ campaigns underway and data on NFZ's around the world.
The lists are arranged alphabetically by state, cities listed
first then counties.

You want your personal beliefs guide your investment
decisions because you care about how your money is working
for you. You need hard data upon which to base such important
decisions. EthInves provides you with just such data. Facts
on ethical investment vehicles like mutual funds & money
market accounts; lists of companies that still do business in
South Africa; major nuclear weapons contractors; the top
Dept. of Defense contractors; utilities that own nuclear
power plants and much much more.
This is an imperfect world we live in. Nothing is black and
white. Everything is complicated. You should sit down and
list your priorities and concerns. How do you want your money
to work? What companies or industries would you like to
avoid? Which do you want to support? In short, what are
your priorities? Now is a good time to sit down with a
pencil and paper and make a list. Number the issues 110.
What are you prepared to compromise on? What are your
non-negotiables? Possible criteria for evaluating a
potential investment might include:
* Defense-related activities, including the manufacturing of
arms, radar or communications equipment, aircraft, ships,
submarines, missiles, etc. and/or research on any of the
above
* South African investments or trade. The last year has seen
a continued departure of American firms from South Africa.
Not all opponents of apartheid support the complete
withdrawal of American companies from South Africa, believing
that the presence American companies can provide a positive
and constructive influence. How do you feel about firms that
are still in South Africa but have signed the Sullivan
Principles? (Rev. Sullivan himself has changed to a position
of advocating the withdrawal from South Africa. See his
6/3/87 statement elsewhere in this issue of EthInves.) How
do you feel about companies that have no more "direct"
investments but have set up franchises or other alternatives
to continue to have a business presence in (and profit from)
South Africa?
* Pollution and environmental track record. Does the company
in question pollute, strip mine, dump toxic waste,
manufacture pesticides/herbicides/insecticides, etc.?
* Labor history. Is the company known for its poor labor
record, breaking strikes, not negotiating in good faith,
hiring outside union busting firms, discrimination against
minorities and/or women, etc.?
* Nukes, commercial or military. Involvement in the resarch,
design, manufacturing, construction and/or maintenance of
nuclear power plants? Exploration, mining and/or refining of
uranium, plutonium or other nuclear material? Research,
design, manufacturing, installation, maintenance, and/or
delivery of nuclear weapons?
There are those who purchase minimal amounts of a company's
stock in order to participate in stockholders' protests.
Others use proxy voting. Several religious and divestment
groups have used this tactic with great success. If you have
the time and energy to devote to this more activist approach,
it can raise social, environmental and political issues at
annual meetings. Such stockholders' actions have pressure
firms to leave South Africa.

There's a very interesting if depressing article in the that
discusses the impact of a nuclear weapons treaty on the
stock price and earnings of major weapons contractors.
Since conventional weapons sales are likely to go up in the
aftermath of a nuclear weapons treaty and conventional
weapons have a higher profit margin than nuclear weapons,
major defense contractors may stand to make more money
*after* a nuclear weapons treaty between US & USSR. Let's
hope the author's thesis is flawed.

>>> >>> REV. SULLIVAN & THE DIVESTMENT MOVEMENT <<< <<<
>>> Rev. Leon Sullivan's 6/3/87 Statement <<<
I have assessed, to the best of my ability, the situation as
it now exists in the Republic of South Africa, and I have
reached the decision that the time has come for American
companies, and the United States of America, to take a
definitive stand against the evils of apartheid.
Therefore, today, I am calling for the withdrawal of all
United States companies from the Republic of South Africa,
and for a total United States embargo against that country,
until statutory apartheid is ended, and Blacks have a clear
commitment for equal political rights, and I am calling on
the President of the United States to end diplomatic
relations with South Africa until the atrocities against
Black people end, and apartheid is dismantled.
As of May, 1985, I stated if in twenty-four months statutory
apartheid was not ended, and there was not a clear commitment
of the vote for Blacks, equal to whites, I would call on the
companies to leave South Africa, and call for an American
embargo. The conditions have not been remotely met.
Therefore, after careful, painstaking, and prayerful
consideration, I am making this statement.
This action comes after years of effort with the Sullivan
Principles to help, along with other thrusts, to bring about
fundamental change in that country; and I want it clearly
known, I am proud of the work of the Sullivan Principles, and
proud of the efforts of those companies who have followed
them. The Sullivan Principles, initiated March 1, 1977, ten
years ago, have been a tremendous force for change in South
Africa.
When the Sullivan Principles were introduced ten years ago, a
Black man did not even have the legal status as a worker in
South Africa. The Principles broke new ground for Black
rights in South Africa that had not existed for 300 years.
They have caused a revolution in industrial race relations
for Black workers in that country.
These equal rights standards, followed by many American
companies, have lead the way in promoting equal pay for equal
work, fair employment practices, recognition of independent
free Black trade unions, extensive educational training
programs, the promotion of Blacks to management and
supervisory jobs, the initiation of hundreds of Black owned
businesses, the building of schools and health facilities,
and the improvement of the quality of life in many other ways
for hundreds of thousands of Blacks, far, far beyond the
small number employed by American companies.
The Sullivan Principles have been a catalyst for change
throughout the Republic of South Africa. Also, in recent
years, as the Principles have evolved, some United States
companies have begun to challenge the apartheid system
itself, and have begun to practice "corporate civil
disobedience" against apartheid practices, regulations and
laws.
Many United States companies engaging in this effort have
left a notable record in corporate social responsibility in
South Africa. Whatever happens in the future, the work of
many of the companies to change conditions for Blacks has
been outstanding. Still, in spite of these and other
efforts, the main pillars of apartheid still remain, and
Blacks are still denied simple basic human rights in their
own country, and are still deprived of the right to vote.
In spite of appeals, and protests, and cries for change and
justice within South Africa, repression grows, thousands are
jailed without trial, including little children, people are
brutalized, beaten and killed, dissent is ruthlessly
suppressed, and the press is muzzled. Intransigence to
fundamental change continues, and, today, the government
pushes back even minimal progress and reform. South Africa
has become a nation of oppression and a police state, and the
continuation of apartheid and its inhumanities against Blacks
goes on. There is no greater moral issue in the world today
than apartheid!
Somewhere, somehow, it must be said, as loudly and as
clearly, and as firmly possible, that what is happening in
South Africa to Black people is immoral, and it is wrong, and
it must be brought to an end. Not ten years from now, or
five years from now, or three years from now, but now.
The winds of change have reached South Africa, and the winds
will not be subdued until the people have no less than their
full economic, social and political freedom. And violently,
or non-violently, Black people in South Africa are going to
have it. And nothing can, or will, end the rising surge of
the people's aspirations for their freedom and for justice in
South Africa, but the elimination of the apartheid system
itself, which is the root cause of the nation's problems.
South Africa is at the crossroads. Either South Africa can
go the direction of a unitary free South Africa, or the
direction of a chaotic revolution, with the killing of
millions people, the destruction of a country, and the
devastation of the entire southern region of Africa; leading
to the possibility of the confrontation of the world's great
nuclear powers at that strategic point of the world, as a
race war would certainly become an ideological war. And
should the United States become involved in such a war, as
most assuredly we would, one way or the other; race riots
would break out in every major city in the country, far worse
than anything ever seen in the history of America.
It is in the interest of peace in South Africa, and peace in
the world, and peace in America, that apartheid must be
ended. The evils of apartheid are broader than South Africa.
Apartheid is against the will of God, and the humanity of
man; and like Nazism and Facism, it must be stopped. America
and the world must draw a line, and speak out, and act
against it. If the world had stopped Hitler in time, we
might not have had World War II.
It is clear the South African government does not intend to
end apartheid on its own. Since the recent elections, the
government ahs become more defiant to further change.
Therefore, something must be done now to dramatize the issue
before America and before the world. Every moral, and
economic, and political force must be brought to bear to help
influence the South African government to move towards
dismantling the apartheid system, while there is still time.
In this regard, America, a leader of the free world, should
take the lead, including our companies and our government,
hoping others in the world will follow.
Therefore, today, as the strongest possible American non-
violent protest against the continuing existence of
apartheid, and with the maximum non-violent use of moral,
corporate, and government force against that inhumane system,
I call on all American companies to withdraw from the
Republic of South Africa, until statutory apratheid has been
abolished, and there is a clear commitment of the vote for
Blacks, in accordance with agreements reached with authentic
and representative Black South African leaders.
Also, I call on the United States to enact, with urgency, a
total United States economic embargo against South Africa,
all exports and imports, including gold and diamonds, and to
seek South African sourced vitally needed materials
elsewhere, or to seek alternatives, or to stockpile, or to
recycle, or to do without.
I further call on the Congress to consider stringent
penalties against United States trading partners who assume
markets left by departing United States companies, and who
continue to do business in South Africa, such as the
Japanese.
I, also, call on the President of the United States to break
all Diplomatic Relations with South Africa, until atrocities
against Black people end, and apartheid is dismantled.
Should, at any time, the South African government abolish
statutory apartheid, and commit itself to equal voting rights
for Blacks, in accordance with agreements reached with
authentic and representative Black South African leaders,
restrictions against American companies operating in South
Africa should be lifted, and American companies should be
free to return to the country, along with unlimited United
States investments in a unitary Free South Africa.
This Call for Withdrawal excludes Philanthropic and
Educational initiatives, and the Media.
This is my message to the companies of America, the Congress
and the President of the United States, and to the Government
of South Africa.

>>> NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS <<<
>>> Listed by Utility Company <<<
>>> as of 1/1/87 <<<
This is the most accurate list that I have been able to
compile of all the owners of each nuclear reactor. It is
sorted by utility company. Below is another listing sorted
by reactor, listing its location and the operating utility
company.
Ownership changes hands frequently and you should double
check before accepting this listing as gospel truth. In
researching this list, I get the distinct impression that no
one wants you to know this stuff. What are they hiding?
Bond buyers may well want to consider the nuclear profile of
a given utility. Nuclear power plant owners are often
saddled with high debt and face the uncertain future of
nuclear power in the immediate and long-range future
post-Three Mile Island and post-Chernobyl.

Community development and revolving loan funds provide the
credit and financial support that small businesses, community
groups, cooperatives and others need but are unable to obtain
from more traditional sources (banks and savings & loans).
Because the focus of community development loan funds is
local, you'll know exactly where your money is and what it is
doing. Help strengthen your community by supporting a local
community loan or revolving loan fund.
As of 6/30/87, N.A.C.D.L.F. members had 604 loans outstanding
totaling $14,844,000. (This doesn't include loans commited
but not yet disbursed.) They also had 1,522 lenders with a
total capitalization of $34,181,000.

>>> >>> NUCLEAR FREE ZONES LIST <<< <<<
>>> as of 10/87 <<<
Why care about Nuclear Free Zones? If you don't live in one,
why concern yourself with something four states away?
Remember my friend, the arms build-up, nuclear fall out and
nuclear waste know no geographic boundaries. We all live at
Chernobyl.
As an investor you may look to municipal bonds for guaranteed
long term growth. With munis you can be reasonably sure of
where your money is going and what it is being used for.
You might like to support communities that have taken a
stand against nuclear power and/or nuclear weapons.
Or you may notice by looking at the list that your city or
county is not on the list. Time to get busy ... Nuclear
Free America claims that14,914,397 Americans live in 139
nuclear free zones in this country.
Or perhaps you have some vacation time coming up.
There are lists of all the nuclear free zones in America, US
NFZ campaigns underway and data on NFZ's around the world.
The lists are arranged alphabetically by state, cities listed
first then counties.

>>> NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS <<<
>>> Listed by Utility Company <<<
>>> as of 1/1/87 <<<
This is the most accurate list that I have been able to
compile of all the owners of each nuclear reactor. It is
sorted by utility company. Below is another listing sorted
by reactor, listing its location and the operating utility
company.
Ownership changes hands frequently and you should double
check before accepting this listing as gospel truth. In
researching this list, I get the distinct impression that no
one wants you to know this stuff. What are they hiding?
Bond buyers may well want to consider the nuclear profile of
a given utility. Nuclear power plant owners are often
saddled with high debt and face the uncertain future of
nuclear power in the immediate and long-range future
post-Three Mile Island and post-Chernobyl.

>>> >>> NUCLEAR FREE ZONES LIST <<< <<<
>>> as of 10/87 <<<
Why care about Nuclear Free Zones? If you don't live in one,
why concern yourself with something four states away?
Remember my friend, the arms build-up, nuclear fall out and
nuclear waste know no geographic boundaries. We all live at
Chernobyl.
As an investor you may look to municipal bonds for guaranteed
long term growth. With munis you can be reasonably sure of
where your money is going and what it is being used for.
You might like to support communities that have taken a
stand against nuclear power and/or nuclear weapons.
Or you may notice by looking at the list that your city or
county is not on the list. Time to get busy ... Nuclear
Free America claims that14,914,397 Americans live in 139
nuclear free zones in this country.
Or perhaps you have some vacation time coming up.
There are lists of all the nuclear free zones in America, US
NFZ campaigns underway and data on NFZ's around the world.
The lists are arranged alphabetically by state, cities listed
first then counties.

The On-disk Almanac of Ethical Investing
copyright 1988 Jerry Whiting
PO Box 20821, Seattle, WA 98102
>>> >>> RESOURCES <<< <<<
You want your personal beliefs guide your investment
decisions because you care about how your money is working
for you. You need hard data upon which to base such important
decisions. EthInves provides you with just such data. Facts
on ethical investment vehicles like mutual funds & money
market accounts; lists of companies that still do business in
South Africa; major nuclear weapons contractors; the top
Dept. of Defense contractors; utilities that own nuclear
power plants and much much more.
This is an imperfect world we live in. Nothing is black and
white. Everything is complicated. You should sit down and
list your priorities and concerns. How do you want your money
to work? What companies or industries would you like to
avoid? Which do you want to support? In short, what are
your priorities? Now is a good time to sit down with a
pencil and paper and make a list. Number the issues 110.
What are you prepared to compromise on? What are your
non-negotiables? Possible criteria for evaluating a
potential investment might include:
* Defense-related activities, including the manufacturing of
arms, radar or communications equipment, aircraft, ships,
submarines, missiles, etc. and/or research on any of the
above
* South African investments or trade. The last year has seen
a continued departure of American firms from South Africa.
Not all opponents of apartheid support the complete
withdrawal of American companies from South Africa, believing
that the presence American companies can provide a positive
and constructive influence. How do you feel about firms that
are still in South Africa but have signed the Sullivan
Principles? (Rev. Sullivan himself has changed to a position
of advocating the withdrawal from South Africa. See his
6/3/87 statement elsewhere in this issue of EthInves.) How
do you feel about companies that have no more "direct"
investments but have set up franchises or other alternatives
to continue to have a business presence in (and profit from)
South Africa?
* Pollution and environmental track record. Does the company
in question pollute, strip mine, dump toxic waste,
manufacture pesticides/herbicides/insecticides, etc.?
* Labor history. Is the company known for its poor labor
record, breaking strikes, not negotiating in good faith,
hiring outside union busting firms, discrimination against
minorities and/or women, etc.?
* Nukes, commercial or military. Involvement in the resarch,
design, manufacturing, construction and/or maintenance of
nuclear power plants? Exploration, mining and/or refining of
uranium, plutonium or other nuclear material? Research,
design, manufacturing, installation, maintenance, and/or
delivery of nuclear weapons?
There are those who purchase minimal amounts of a company's
stock in order to participate in stockholders' protests.
Others use proxy voting. Several religious and divestment
groups have used this tactic with great success. If you have
the time and energy to devote to this more activist approach,
it can raise social, environmental and political issues at
annual meetings. Such stockholders' actions have pressure
firms to leave South Africa.
>>> READING LIST <<<
>>> Articles <<<
This reading list includes articles that have appeared in
1987. Consult EthInves ver 1.3 for references to older
articles.
Articles about South Africa and divestment continue to be so
frequent that I have only included selected articles. If you
still need background reference material on aparthied and the
divestment movement, spend an afternoon or evening at your
local public library.

There's a very interesting if depressing article in the that
discusses the impact of a nuclear weapons treaty on the
stock price and earnings of major weapons contractors.
Since conventional weapons sales are likely to go up in the
aftermath of a nuclear weapons treaty and conventional
weapons have a higher profit margin than nuclear weapons,
major defense contractors may stand to make more money
*after* a nuclear weapons treaty between US & USSR. Let's
hope the author's thesis is flawed.
New York Times, 10/4/87, p16
A unique program to encourage small organic farmers to stay
in business. End consumers pay for produce up front to
ensure farmer's survival. In effect, organic produce
futures. An idea that could easily catch on and be a grass

around the world.

>>> Introduction <<<
No other facet of the ethical investment movement has
received as much attention or had as deep an impact as the
divestment movement. Public outcry and investor pressure has
played a pivotal role in pressuring American companies into
leaving South Africa.
As an investor you must decide what level of involvement with
South Africa you are comfortable with. Many companies have
responded to public pressure by ending their direct investment
but continue to profit through franchises, licensing agreements
or other means that let them have their cake and eat it too.
On June 3, 1987, Rev. Leon Sullivan abandoned his efforts of
trying to influence Pretoria through the examples set by
American businesses in South Africa and called for a complete
withdrawal. You must decide for yourself if a company's
signing of the Sullivan Principles was a skirt to hide behind
or was a sincere effort to bring about progressive change.
For interesting, if disheartening, articles on the impact of
divestment on South Africa, consult The New York Times,
7/27/87, p21; New York Times, 9/7/87, p17; Wall Street
Journal, 9/21/87, p20.
Five organizations active in the fight against apartheid have
recently issued their own "Guidelines for Divestment". A
copy of their statement follows.

We support an end to all corporate involvement in or with South
Africa and Namibia. A corporation is doing business in or with
the Republic of South Africa or Namibia if it, its parent, or its
subsidiaries:
1) have direct investments in South Africa or Namibia, or have

>>> >>> REV. SULLIVAN & THE DIVESTMENT MOVEMENT <<< <<<
>>> Rev. Leon Sullivan's 6/3/87 Statement <<<
I have assessed, to the best of my ability, the situation as
it now exists in the Republic of South Africa, and I have
reached the decision that the time has come for American
companies, and the United States of America, to take a
definitive stand against the evils of apartheid.
Therefore, today, I am calling for the withdrawal of all
United States companies from the Republic of South Africa,
and for a total United States embargo against that country,
until statutory apartheid is ended, and Blacks have a clear
commitment for equal political rights, and I am calling on
the President of the United States to end diplomatic
relations with South Africa until the atrocities against
Black people end, and apartheid is dismantled.
As of May, 1985, I stated if in twenty-four months statutory
apartheid was not ended, and there was not a clear commitment
of the vote for Blacks, equal to whites, I would call on the
companies to leave South Africa, and call for an American
embargo. The conditions have not been remotely met.
Therefore, after careful, painstaking, and prayerful
consideration, I am making this statement.
This action comes after years of effort with the Sullivan
Principles to help, along with other thrusts, to bring about
fundamental change in that country; and I want it clearly
known, I am proud of the work of the Sullivan Principles, and
proud of the efforts of those companies who have followed
them. The Sullivan Principles, initiated March 1, 1977, ten
years ago, have been a tremendous force for change in South
Africa.
When the Sullivan Principles were introduced ten years ago, a
Black man did not even have the legal status as a worker in
South Africa. The Principles broke new ground for Black
rights in South Africa that had not existed for 300 years.
They have caused a revolution in industrial race relations
for Black workers in that country.
These equal rights standards, followed by many American
companies, have lead the way in promoting equal pay for equal
work, fair employment practices, recognition of independent
free Black trade unions, extensive educational training
programs, the promotion of Blacks to management and
supervisory jobs, the initiation of hundreds of Black owned
businesses, the building of schools and health facilities,
and the improvement of the quality of life in many other ways
for hundreds of thousands of Blacks, far, far beyond the
small number employed by American companies.
The Sullivan Principles have been a catalyst for change
throughout the Republic of South Africa. Also, in recent
years, as the Principles have evolved, some United States
companies have begun to challenge the apartheid system
itself, and have begun to practice "corporate civil
disobedience" against apartheid practices, regulations and
laws.
Many United States companies engaging in this effort have
left a notable record in corporate social responsibility in
South Africa. Whatever happens in the future, the work of
many of the companies to change conditions for Blacks has
been outstanding. Still, in spite of these and other
efforts, the main pillars of apartheid still remain, and
Blacks are still denied simple basic human rights in their
own country, and are still deprived of the right to vote.
In spite of appeals, and protests, and cries for change and
justice within South Africa, repression grows, thousands are
jailed without trial, including little children, people are
brutalized, beaten and killed, dissent is ruthlessly
suppressed, and the press is muzzled. Intransigence to
fundamental change continues, and, today, the government
pushes back even minimal progress and reform. South Africa
has become a nation of oppression and a police state, and the
continuation of apartheid and its inhumanities against Blacks
goes on. There is no greater moral issue in the world today
than apartheid!
Somewhere, somehow, it must be said, as loudly and as
clearly, and as firmly possible, that what is happening in
South Africa to Black people is immoral, and it is wrong, and
it must be brought to an end. Not ten years from now, or
five years from now, or three years from now, but now.
The winds of change have reached South Africa, and the winds
will not be subdued until the people have no less than their
full economic, social and political freedom. And violently,
or non-violently, Black people in South Africa are going to
have it. And nothing can, or will, end the rising surge of
the people's aspirations for their freedom and for justice in
South Africa, but the elimination of the apartheid system
itself, which is the root cause of the nation's problems.
South Africa is at the crossroads. Either South Africa can
go the direction of a unitary free South Africa, or the
direction of a chaotic revolution, with the killing of
millions people, the destruction of a country, and the
devastation of the entire southern region of Africa; leading
to the possibility of the confrontation of the world's great
nuclear powers at that strategic point of the world, as a
race war would certainly become an ideological war. And
should the United States become involved in such a war, as
most assuredly we would, one way or the other; race riots
would break out in every major city in the country, far worse
than anything ever seen in the history of America.
It is in the interest of peace in South Africa, and peace in
the world, and peace in America, that apartheid must be
ended. The evils of apartheid are broader than South Africa.
Apartheid is against the will of God, and the humanity of
man; and like Nazism and Facism, it must be stopped. America
and the world must draw a line, and speak out, and act
against it. If the world had stopped Hitler in time, we
might not have had World War II.
It is clear the South African government does not intend to
end apartheid on its own. Since the recent elections, the
government ahs become more defiant to further change.
Therefore, something must be done now to dramatize the issue
before America and before the world. Every moral, and
economic, and political force must be brought to bear to help
influence the South African government to move towards
dismantling the apartheid system, while there is still time.
In this regard, America, a leader of the free world, should
take the lead, including our companies and our government,
hoping others in the world will follow.
Therefore, today, as the strongest possible American non-
violent protest against the continuing existence of
apartheid, and with the maximum non-violent use of moral,
corporate, and government force against that inhumane system,
I call on all American companies to withdraw from the
Republic of South Africa, until statutory apratheid has been
abolished, and there is a clear commitment of the vote for
Blacks, in accordance with agreements reached with authentic
and representative Black South African leaders.
Also, I call on the United States to enact, with urgency, a
total United States economic embargo against South Africa,
all exports and imports, including gold and diamonds, and to
seek South African sourced vitally needed materials
elsewhere, or to seek alternatives, or to stockpile, or to
recycle, or to do without.
I further call on the Congress to consider stringent
penalties against United States trading partners who assume
markets left by departing United States companies, and who
continue to do business in South Africa, such as the
Japanese.
I, also, call on the President of the United States to break
all Diplomatic Relations with South Africa, until atrocities
against Black people end, and apartheid is dismantled.
Should, at any time, the South African government abolish
statutory apartheid, and commit itself to equal voting rights
for Blacks, in accordance with agreements reached with
authentic and representative Black South African leaders,
restrictions against American companies operating in South
Africa should be lifted, and American companies should be
free to return to the country, along with unlimited United
States investments in a unitary Free South Africa.
This Call for Withdrawal excludes Philanthropic and
Educational initiatives, and the Media.
This is my message to the companies of America, the Congress
and the President of the United States, and to the Government
of South Africa.

>>> >>> REV. SULLIVAN & THE DIVESTMENT MOVEMENT <<< <<<
>>> Rev. Leon Sullivan's 6/3/87 Statement <<<
I have assessed, to the best of my ability, the situation as
it now exists in the Republic of South Africa, and I have
reached the decision that the time has come for American
companies, and the United States of America, to take a
definitive stand against the evils of apartheid.
Therefore, today, I am calling for the withdrawal of all
United States companies from the Republic of South Africa,
and for a total United States embargo against that country,
until statutory apartheid is ended, and Blacks have a clear
commitment for equal political rights, and I am calling on
the President of the United States to end diplomatic
relations with South Africa until the atrocities against
Black people end, and apartheid is dismantled.
As of May, 1985, I stated if in twenty-four months statutory
apartheid was not ended, and there was not a clear commitment
of the vote for Blacks, equal to whites, I would call on the
companies to leave South Africa, and call for an American
embargo. The conditions have not been remotely met.
Therefore, after careful, painstaking, and prayerful
consideration, I am making this statement.
This action comes after years of effort with the Sullivan
Principles to help, along with other thrusts, to bring about
fundamental change in that country; and I want it clearly
known, I am proud of the work of the Sullivan Principles, and
proud of the efforts of those companies who have followed
them. The Sullivan Principles, initiated March 1, 1977, ten
years ago, have been a tremendous force for change in South
Africa.
When the Sullivan Principles were introduced ten years ago, a
Black man did not even have the legal status as a worker in
South Africa. The Principles broke new ground for Black
rights in South Africa that had not existed for 300 years.
They have caused a revolution in industrial race relations
for Black workers in that country.
These equal rights standards, followed by many American
companies, have lead the way in promoting equal pay for equal
work, fair employment practices, recognition of independent
free Black trade unions, extensive educational training
programs, the promotion of Blacks to management and
supervisory jobs, the initiation of hundreds of Black owned
businesses, the building of schools and health facilities,
and the improvement of the quality of life in many other ways
for hundreds of thousands of Blacks, far, far beyond the
small number employed by American companies.
The Sullivan Principles have been a catalyst for change
throughout the Republic of South Africa. Also, in recent
years, as the Principles have evolved, some United States
companies have begun to challenge the apartheid system
itself, and have begun to practice "corporate civil
disobedience" against apartheid practices, regulations and
laws.
Many United States companies engaging in this effort have
left a notable record in corporate social responsibility in
South Africa. Whatever happens in the future, the work of
many of the companies to change conditions for Blacks has
been outstanding. Still, in spite of these and other
efforts, the main pillars of apartheid still remain, and
Blacks are still denied simple basic human rights in their
own country, and are still deprived of the right to vote.
In spite of appeals, and protests, and cries for change and
justice within South Africa, repression grows, thousands are
jailed without trial, including little children, people are
brutalized, beaten and killed, dissent is ruthlessly
suppressed, and the press is muzzled. Intransigence to
fundamental change continues, and, today, the government
pushes back even minimal progress and reform. South Africa
has become a nation of oppression and a police state, and the
continuation of apartheid and its inhumanities against Blacks
goes on. There is no greater moral issue in the world today
than apartheid!
Somewhere, somehow, it must be said, as loudly and as
clearly, and as firmly possible, that what is happening in
South Africa to Black people is immoral, and it is wrong, and
it must be brought to an end. Not ten years from now, or
five years from now, or three years from now, but now.
The winds of change have reached South Africa, and the winds
will not be subdued until the people have no less than their
full economic, social and political freedom. And violently,
or non-violently, Black people in South Africa are going to
have it. And nothing can, or will, end the rising surge of
the people's aspirations for their freedom and for justice in
South Africa, but the elimination of the apartheid system
itself, which is the root cause of the nation's problems.
South Africa is at the crossroads. Either South Africa can
go the direction of a unitary free South Africa, or the
direction of a chaotic revolution, with the killing of
millions people, the destruction of a country, and the
devastation of the entire southern region of Africa; leading
to the possibility of the confrontation of the world's great
nuclear powers at that strategic point of the world, as a
race war would certainly become an ideological war. And
should the United States become involved in such a war, as
most assuredly we would, one way or the other; race riots
would break out in every major city in the country, far worse
than anything ever seen in the history of America.
It is in the interest of peace in South Africa, and peace in
the world, and peace in America, that apartheid must be
ended. The evils of apartheid are broader than South Africa.
Apartheid is against the will of God, and the humanity of
man; and like Nazism and Facism, it must be stopped. America
and the world must draw a line, and speak out, and act
against it. If the world had stopped Hitler in time, we
might not have had World War II.
It is clear the South African government does not intend to
end apartheid on its own. Since the recent elections, the
government ahs become more defiant to further change.
Therefore, something must be done now to dramatize the issue
before America and before the world. Every moral, and
economic, and political force must be brought to bear to help
influence the South African government to move towards
dismantling the apartheid system, while there is still time.
In this regard, America, a leader of the free world, should
take the lead, including our companies and our government,
hoping others in the world will follow.
Therefore, today, as the strongest possible American non-
violent protest against the continuing existence of
apartheid, and with the maximum non-violent use of moral,
corporate, and government force against that inhumane system,
I call on all American companies to withdraw from the
Republic of South Africa, until statutory apratheid has been
abolished, and there is a clear commitment of the vote for
Blacks, in accordance with agreements reached with authentic
and representative Black South African leaders.
Also, I call on the United States to enact, with urgency, a
total United States economic embargo against South Africa,
all exports and imports, including gold and diamonds, and to
seek South African sourced vitally needed materials
elsewhere, or to seek alternatives, or to stockpile, or to
recycle, or to do without.
I further call on the Congress to consider stringent
penalties against United States trading partners who assume
markets left by departing United States companies, and who
continue to do business in South Africa, such as the
Japanese.
I, also, call on the President of the United States to break
all Diplomatic Relations with South Africa, until atrocities
against Black people end, and apartheid is dismantled.
Should, at any time, the South African government abolish
statutory apartheid, and commit itself to equal voting rights
for Blacks, in accordance with agreements reached with
authentic and representative Black South African leaders,
restrictions against American companies operating in South
Africa should be lifted, and American companies should be
free to return to the country, along with unlimited United
States investments in a unitary Free South Africa.
This Call for Withdrawal excludes Philanthropic and
Educational initiatives, and the Media.
This is my message to the companies of America, the Congress
and the President of the United States, and to the Government
of South Africa.

Welcome to the second year of EthInves. A what a year it's
been: a new tax environment, the Soviet-U.S. missile treaty,
the rising Latin American debt crisis, the falling dollar,
the ever-present trade deficit and how can you mention 1987
without mentioning Bloody Monday.
In spite of all this uncertainty and rapid change, you are
still looking for sound investment options. Your task is to
earn a comfortable return on your investment while monitoring
its social, political and environmental impact. No small
task.
I hope that the information and resources contained in
EthInves will make those decisions a little bit easier for
you. As you may have noticed, ver. 2.0 is considerably
larger than 1.3 I hope that you find much of this new
material helpful. If not, write or e-mail me and let me
know. What do you need? What don't you use? What can't you
find?
My future plans for EthInves include more ancillary material
that may be of interest to EthInves users. For example, this
edition includes a list of all the nuclear free zones world
wide. The next edition (ver 2.1, 7/88) will have a database
of the members of Congress including address, phone and
committee memberships. I have recently acquired Borland's
Quattro. Expect to see much of the financial data in
spreadsheet/database form from now on. If there's interest
from folks, I can also bundle other author's shareware: IRA
calculators, loan rate utils, etc.
The response the last 6 months to EthInves has been very
positive. If this good fortune continues, EthInves will
become a quarterly publication by year's end.
EthInves readers can receive a free sample copy of RECON, the
newsletter that keeps its eye on the Pentagon, by writing
editor Chris Robinson and mentioning EthInves.
The periodical of the year award goes to The Whole Earth
Review for their Winter '87 issue "Signal". If you are a
hacker, media freak, samizdat or committed culture watcher
you'll want to catch up with a copy of this excellent
magazine. $5 from Whole Earth Review, 27 Gate Five Road,
Sausalito, CA, 94965. In fact, you should be a subscriber
($20/year).
Ramblings ...
With all-digit phone numbers, how long are they going to keep
putting letters on phones? In other words, when will we lose
being able to spell out phone numbers?
When is someone going to put a clock/calendar into my
answering machine so that I can program it like I do my VCR?
I could simply tell it my regular working hours and never
have that sudden flash the minute I get to work.
Now that all of us with day gigs are in the habit of
timeshifting David Letterman AND VCR's are in 52% of American
homes, when will the advertisers get hip and push for
programming around the clock?
What public library will be first to put a jukebox of
CD-ROM's on-line accessable via your modem? Local call so
that's free. All we need now are lots and lots of reference
books and journals on disk with an elegant search routine on
the front end. I'm not holding my breath but one day ...
Anybody else get a mailing from their local cable company
offering a computer hook-up, software and on-line services as
an option? Will cable companies with their large installed
infrastructure start to rival phone line based information
utilities (CompuServe, The Source, etc.)?
I've been hearing more and more about progressive personal
computing throughout the Soviet bloc. Will glasnost bring
about telecommunication and floppy disk exchanges with folks
in the Soviet bloc? What would a public Soviet-US computer
network be like? Will your local user group have a sisterSIG
in Poland?
Can you honestly tell me you have seen a non-trivial
HyperCard stack? Not a glorified hyperDA but a real app I'll
use day in and day out. I have faith. Just wish I had the
time to play with HyperTalk. One of my few New Year's
resolutions, along with PostScript.
If I were to win the lottery tommorrow, I'd buy a Compaq 386
to run Windows386. I would never turn it off because I'd
configure Windows to run comm software in the background and
periodically download stuff from designated networks. The
rest of the time it's in auto answer mode. And when I sit
down to use it, all of this is transparent to me.
Or I'd get a Mac II with an AST 286 card and wait for Apple
to release A/UX, their flavor of Unix and be able to run all
three operating systems.
Then I'd get a 976- exchange number locally or a 900 area
code number nationwide and you could download stuff from me,
having it billed to your phone. I'd don't know what the
phone company's attitude is but you could have pay as you go
information utilities.
The Spell-Checkers-Are-Great-But ... Dept.: They are but
until they're hypertext or randomized or in some different
form, you're gonna miss out on all the great new words you
learn while you're looking for the something else in a
printed dictionary.
Once again, thanks to all of you have provided me with both
information and inspiration during the last year. EthInves
started with my own search for ethical investment vehicles
for my own I.R.A. After looking high and low for what little
information is generally available, I decided to share this
information with you.

Community development and revolving loan funds provide the
credit and financial support that small businesses, community
groups, cooperatives and others need but are unable to obtain
from more traditional sources (banks and savings & loans).
Because the focus of community development loan funds is
local, you'll know exactly where your money is and what it is
doing. Help strengthen your community by supporting a local
community loan or revolving loan fund.
As of 6/30/87, N.A.C.D.L.F. members had 604 loans outstanding
totaling $14,844,000. (This doesn't include loans commited
but not yet disbursed.) They also had 1,522 lenders with a
total capitalization of $34,181,000.

The On-disk Almanac of Ethical Investing
copyright 1988 Jerry Whiting
PO Box 20821, Seattle, WA 98102
>>> >>> DETAILS <<< <<<
EthInves is an shareware almanac that provides you with handy
reference material on socially responsible investing.
EthInves is distributed as both ASCII text-only files
(MS-DOS) and MacWrite files (Macintosh). To begin using
EthInves, just open the EthInves files with your favorite
word processor or place the files into a PageMaker
publication. You can print all or part of it out or use it
as a handy on-disk reference when you need a specific piece
of information.
EthInves is packed full of information of interst to people
who are concerned about how their investments are impacting
the world around them. EthInves' files contain information
about newsletters, magazines and books on ethical investment;
financial profiles of socially conscious mutual funds, money
market funds and other investment vehicles; and lists of
utility companies involved with nuclear power plants. You'll
also find the top 100 Dept. of Defense contractors, all the
Strategic Defense Initiative (Star Wars) contractors, the
companies that still do business in South Africa and much,
much more. I strongly suggest you browse through the MISC
file. :-)
EthInves is shareware and you are encouraged to pass it on to
friends, relatives and co-workers. Each copy includes an
archived version to make uploading and downloading EthInves
both quicker and cheaper. The necessary archiving and de-
archiving utilities are enclosed. All I ask are two things
of you: that you distribute all of the EthInves files in
total without changing the contents and that it not be sold
for more than the cost of reproduction and distrubtion. I
still retain the copyright to EthInves.
If you find EthInves of use, please become a registered owner
for $20. Registration to this biannual almanac gives you a
year's subscription. You get two copies: the one you have
now and the next scheduled release. EthInves issues come out
in January and July.
I welcome feedback, suggestions for improvement and
corrections of errors or omissions. Please tell me where you
heard about EthInves. Many thanks to all of you who have
helped me compile and distribute this material. I always
appreciate your feedback.
THE MATERIAL IN ETHINVES IS FOR RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY. IT
IS NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE NOR IS IT TO BE INTERPRETTED AS
FINANCIAL COUNSELING. IT IS FOR YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION;
HOW YOU APPLY IT WITH YOUR MONEY IS YOUR BUSINESS.

>>> >>> SOUTH AFRICA & SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE INVESTING <<< <<<
>>> Introduction <<<
No other facet of the ethical investment movement has
received as much attention or had as deep an impact as the
divestment movement. Public outcry and investor pressure has
played a pivotal role in pressuring American companies into
leaving South Africa.
As an investor you must decide what level of involvement with
South Africa you are comfortable with. Many companies have
responded to public pressure by ending their direct investment
but continue to profit through franchises, licensing agreements
or other means that let them have their cake and eat it too.
On June 3, 1987, Rev. Leon Sullivan abandoned his efforts of
trying to influence Pretoria through the examples set by
American businesses in South Africa and called for a complete
withdrawal. You must decide for yourself if a company's
signing of the Sullivan Principles was a skirt to hide behind
or was a sincere effort to bring about progressive change.
For interesting, if disheartening, articles on the impact of
divestment on South Africa, consult The New York Times,
7/27/87, p21; New York Times, 9/7/87, p17; Wall Street
Journal, 9/21/87, p20.
Five organizations active in the fight against apartheid have
recently issued their own "Guidelines for Divestment". A
copy of their statement follows.
>>> Guidelines for Divestment <<<
>>> signed 1/87 <<<
We support an end to all corporate involvement in or with South
Africa and Namibia. A corporation is doing business in or with
the Republic of South Africa or Namibia if it, its parent, or its
subsidiaries:
1) have direct investments in South Africa or Namibia, or have
entered into franchise, licensing or management agreements with or
for any entity in those countries; or
2) are financial institutions that have not prohibited new
investments, loans, credits or related services, or the renewal of
existing agreements, including those for the purpose of trade,
with any entity in those countries; or
3) have more than 5% of their common stock beneficially owned or
controlled by a South African entity.
A company with operations in South Africa or Namibia for the sole
purpose of reporting the news shall not be considered doing
business in those countries.

Beware of recent mergers, spin offs and acquisitions. The
ever turbulent business world has blurred this list of parent
companies (e.g. Sperry & Burroughs haved merged and are now
calling themselves Unisys and GE bought RCA etc.). You'll
have to check to see who's doing what today. This is a good
place to start.

I have been unable to locate or put together an up-to-date
list of nuclear weapons contractors. To the best of my
knowledge there is no one place you can go to get a
comprehensive list. The best I've been able to come up with
is the following. The odds are if a company was heavily
involved in nuclear weapons research and/or production in
1983, they still are now. I hope to have more comprehensive
information included in future updates of EthInves. A more
up to date list will soon be available from:

>>> >>> NUCLEAR FREE ZONES LIST <<< <<<
>>> as of 10/87 <<<
Why care about Nuclear Free Zones? If you don't live in one,
why concern yourself with something four states away?
Remember my friend, the arms build-up, nuclear fall out and
nuclear waste know no geographic boundaries. We all live at
Chernobyl.
As an investor you may look to municipal bonds for guaranteed
long term growth. With munis you can be reasonably sure of
where your money is going and what it is being used for.
You might like to support communities that have taken a
stand against nuclear power and/or nuclear weapons.
Or you may notice by looking at the list that your city or
county is not on the list. Time to get busy ... Nuclear
Free America claims that14,914,397 Americans live in 139
nuclear free zones in this country.
Or perhaps you have some vacation time coming up.
There are lists of all the nuclear free zones in America, US
NFZ campaigns underway and data on NFZ's around the world.
The lists are arranged alphabetically by state, cities listed
first then counties.

The On-disk Almanac of Ethical Investing
copyright 1988 Jerry Whiting
PO Box 20821, Seattle, WA 98102
>>> >>> RESOURCES <<< <<<
You want your personal beliefs guide your investment
decisions because you care about how your money is working
for you. You need hard data upon which to base such important
decisions. EthInves provides you with just such data. Facts
on ethical investment vehicles like mutual funds & money
market accounts; lists of companies that still do business in
South Africa; major nuclear weapons contractors; the top
Dept. of Defense contractors; utilities that own nuclear
power plants and much much more.
This is an imperfect world we live in. Nothing is black and
white. Everything is complicated. You should sit down and
list your priorities and concerns. How do you want your money
to work? What companies or industries would you like to
avoid? Which do you want to support? In short, what are
your priorities? Now is a good time to sit down with a
pencil and paper and make a list. Number the issues 110.
What are you prepared to compromise on? What are your
non-negotiables? Possible criteria for evaluating a
potential investment might include:
* Defense-related activities, including the manufacturing of
arms, radar or communications equipment, aircraft, ships,
submarines, missiles, etc. and/or research on any of the
above
* South African investments or trade. The last year has seen
a continued departure of American firms from South Africa.
Not all opponents of apartheid support the complete
withdrawal of American companies from South Africa, believing
that the presence American companies can provide a positive
and constructive influence. How do you feel about firms that
are still in South Africa but have signed the Sullivan
Principles? (Rev. Sullivan himself has changed to a position
of advocating the withdrawal from South Africa. See his
6/3/87 statement elsewhere in this issue of EthInves.) How
do you feel about companies that have no more "direct"
investments but have set up franchises or other alternatives
to continue to have a business presence in (and profit from)
South Africa?
* Pollution and environmental track record. Does the company
in question pollute, strip mine, dump toxic waste,
manufacture pesticides/herbicides/insecticides, etc.?
* Labor history. Is the company known for its poor labor
record, breaking strikes, not negotiating in good faith,
hiring outside union busting firms, discrimination against
minorities and/or women, etc.?
* Nukes, commercial or military. Involvement in the resarch,
design, manufacturing, construction and/or maintenance of
nuclear power plants? Exploration, mining and/or refining of
uranium, plutonium or other nuclear material? Research,
design, manufacturing, installation, maintenance, and/or
delivery of nuclear weapons?
There are those who purchase minimal amounts of a company's
stock in order to participate in stockholders' protests.
Others use proxy voting. Several religious and divestment
groups have used this tactic with great success. If you have
the time and energy to devote to this more activist approach,
it can raise social, environmental and political issues at
annual meetings. Such stockholders' actions have pressure
firms to leave South Africa.
>>> READING LIST <<<
>>> Articles <<<
This reading list includes articles that have appeared in
1987. Consult EthInves ver 1.3 for references to older
articles.
Articles about South Africa and divestment continue to be so
frequent that I have only included selected articles. If you
still need background reference material on aparthied and the
divestment movement, spend an afternoon or evening at your
local public library.

if there's only one article you read this year about the
ethical investing, this is it
NY Times of 9/27/87, Section 3 p 1
There's a very interesting if depressing article in the that
discusses the impact of a nuclear weapons treaty on the
stock price and earnings of major weapons contractors.
Since conventional weapons sales are likely to go up in the
aftermath of a nuclear weapons treaty and conventional
weapons have a higher profit margin than nuclear weapons,
major defense contractors may stand to make more money

A unique program to encourage small organic farmers to stay
in business. End consumers pay for produce up front to
ensure farmer's survival. In effect, organic produce
futures. An idea that could easily catch on and be a grass

around the world.

>>> >>> REV. SULLIVAN & THE DIVESTMENT MOVEMENT <<< <<<
>>> Rev. Leon Sullivan's 6/3/87 Statement <<<
I have assessed, to the best of my ability, the situation as
it now exists in the Republic of South Africa, and I have
reached the decision that the time has come for American
companies, and the United States of America, to take a
definitive stand against the evils of apartheid.
Therefore, today, I am calling for the withdrawal of all
United States companies from the Republic of South Africa,
and for a total United States embargo against that country,
until statutory apartheid is ended, and Blacks have a clear
commitment for equal political rights, and I am calling on
the President of the United States to end diplomatic
relations with South Africa until the atrocities against
Black people end, and apartheid is dismantled.
As of May, 1985, I stated if in twenty-four months statutory
apartheid was not ended, and there was not a clear commitment
of the vote for Blacks, equal to whites, I would call on the
companies to leave South Africa, and call for an American
embargo. The conditions have not been remotely met.
Therefore, after careful, painstaking, and prayerful
consideration, I am making this statement.
This action comes after years of effort with the Sullivan
Principles to help, along with other thrusts, to bring about
fundamental change in that country; and I want it clearly
known, I am proud of the work of the Sullivan Principles, and
proud of the efforts of those companies who have followed
them. The Sullivan Principles, initiated March 1, 1977, ten
years ago, have been a tremendous force for change in South
Africa.
When the Sullivan Principles were introduced ten years ago, a
Black man did not even have the legal status as a worker in
South Africa. The Principles broke new ground for Black
rights in South Africa that had not existed for 300 years.
They have caused a revolution in industrial race relations
for Black workers in that country.
These equal rights standards, followed by many American
companies, have lead the way in promoting equal pay for equal
work, fair employment practices, recognition of independent
free Black trade unions, extensive educational training
programs, the promotion of Blacks to management and
supervisory jobs, the initiation of hundreds of Black owned
businesses, the building of schools and health facilities,
and the improvement of the quality of life in many other ways
for hundreds of thousands of Blacks, far, far beyond the
small number employed by American companies.
The Sullivan Principles have been a catalyst for change
throughout the Republic of South Africa. Also, in recent
years, as the Principles have evolved, some United States
companies have begun to challenge the apartheid system
itself, and have begun to practice "corporate civil
disobedience" against apartheid practices, regulations and
laws.
Many United States companies engaging in this effort have
left a notable record in corporate social responsibility in
South Africa. Whatever happens in the future, the work of
many of the companies to change conditions for Blacks has
been outstanding. Still, in spite of these and other
efforts, the main pillars of apartheid still remain, and
Blacks are still denied simple basic human rights in their
own country, and are still deprived of the right to vote.
In spite of appeals, and protests, and cries for change and
justice within South Africa, repression grows, thousands are
jailed without trial, including little children, people are
brutalized, beaten and killed, dissent is ruthlessly
suppressed, and the press is muzzled. Intransigence to
fundamental change continues, and, today, the government
pushes back even minimal progress and reform. South Africa
has become a nation of oppression and a police state, and the
continuation of apartheid and its inhumanities against Blacks
goes on. There is no greater moral issue in the world today
than apartheid!
Somewhere, somehow, it must be said, as loudly and as
clearly, and as firmly possible, that what is happening in
South Africa to Black people is immoral, and it is wrong, and
it must be brought to an end. Not ten years from now, or
five years from now, or three years from now, but now.
The winds of change have reached South Africa, and the winds
will not be subdued until the people have no less than their
full economic, social and political freedom. And violently,
or non-violently, Black people in South Africa are going to
have it. And nothing can, or will, end the rising surge of
the people's aspirations for their freedom and for justice in
South Africa, but the elimination of the apartheid system
itself, which is the root cause of the nation's problems.
South Africa is at the crossroads. Either South Africa can
go the direction of a unitary free South Africa, or the
direction of a chaotic revolution, with the killing of
millions people, the destruction of a country, and the
devastation of the entire southern region of Africa; leading
to the possibility of the confrontation of the world's great
nuclear powers at that strategic point of the world, as a
race war would certainly become an ideological war. And
should the United States become involved in such a war, as
most assuredly we would, one way or the other; race riots
would break out in every major city in the country, far worse
than anything ever seen in the history of America.
It is in the interest of peace in South Africa, and peace in
the world, and peace in America, that apartheid must be
ended. The evils of apartheid are broader than South Africa.
Apartheid is against the will of God, and the humanity of
man; and like Nazism and Facism, it must be stopped. America
and the world must draw a line, and speak out, and act
against it. If the world had stopped Hitler in time, we
might not have had World War II.
It is clear the South African government does not intend to
end apartheid on its own. Since the recent elections, the
government ahs become more defiant to further change.
Therefore, something must be done now to dramatize the issue
before America and before the world. Every moral, and
economic, and political force must be brought to bear to help
influence the South African government to move towards
dismantling the apartheid system, while there is still time.
In this regard, America, a leader of the free world, should
take the lead, including our companies and our government,
hoping others in the world will follow.
Therefore, today, as the strongest possible American non-
violent protest against the continuing existence of
apartheid, and with the maximum non-violent use of moral,
corporate, and government force against that inhumane system,
I call on all American companies to withdraw from the
Republic of South Africa, until statutory apratheid has been
abolished, and there is a clear commitment of the vote for
Blacks, in accordance with agreements reached with authentic
and representative Black South African leaders.
Also, I call on the United States to enact, with urgency, a
total United States economic embargo against South Africa,
all exports and imports, including gold and diamonds, and to
seek South African sourced vitally needed materials
elsewhere, or to seek alternatives, or to stockpile, or to
recycle, or to do without.
I further call on the Congress to consider stringent
penalties against United States trading partners who assume
markets left by departing United States companies, and who
continue to do business in South Africa, such as the
Japanese.
I, also, call on the President of the United States to break
all Diplomatic Relations with South Africa, until atrocities
against Black people end, and apartheid is dismantled.
Should, at any time, the South African government abolish
statutory apartheid, and commit itself to equal voting rights
for Blacks, in accordance with agreements reached with
authentic and representative Black South African leaders,
restrictions against American companies operating in South
Africa should be lifted, and American companies should be
free to return to the country, along with unlimited United
States investments in a unitary Free South Africa.
This Call for Withdrawal excludes Philanthropic and
Educational initiatives, and the Media.
This is my message to the companies of America, the Congress
and the President of the United States, and to the Government
of South Africa.

researching this list, I get the distinct impression that no
one wants you to know this stuff. What are they hiding?
Bond buyers may well want to consider the nuclear profile of
a given utility. Nuclear power plant owners are often
saddled with high debt and face the uncertain future of
nuclear power in the immediate and long-range future
post-Three Mile Island and post-Chernobyl.

This is the most accurate list that I have been able to
compile of all the owners of each nuclear reactor. It is
sorted by utility company. Below is another listing sorted
by reactor, listing its location and the operating utility
company.
Ownership changes hands frequently and you should double
check before accepting this listing as gospel truth. In
researching this list, I get the distinct impression that no
one wants you to know this stuff. What are they hiding?
Bond buyers may well want to consider the nuclear profile of
a given utility. Nuclear power plant owners are often
saddled with high debt and face the uncertain future of
nuclear power in the immediate and long-range future
post-Three Mile Island and post-Chernobyl.
