posal for the elimination of the
2 percent corporate income tax,
Mr. Archer recommended open-
ing an Office of Economic
Development, which will help
cut red tape that inhibits busi-
nesses from starting and ex-
panding in Detroit.
`The city will be open to busi-
ness and it will flourish," he
said. "We are in serious finan-
cial difficulty. I don't see how
we can give up any corporate
income tax."
"I think we need
to drop the
Jewish-black
issue."

Gov. Engler 'Iffy'
On School Vouchers
THE JEWISH NEWS
Ms. McPhail, division chief
of the Wayne County Pro-
secutor's office, called for
putting 2,000 new police officers
on the streets. She also advo-
cated the formation of "com-
munity councils" comprised of
citizens in Detroit neighbor-
hoods working to improve their
part of town.
Regarding schools, Ms.
McPhail proposed a "Sister
School" program, whereby in-
ner-city youth would work on
projects with children from the
suburbs.
"You and I know — we all
know — that there is a tremen-
dous polarization between the
city and the suburbs. Detroit is
the front porch of the rest of the
state of Michigan. Unless we
all get on that front porch and
hold hands, this region will not
be competitive."
On this point, her opponent
agreed.
"Neither Detroit nor its sub-
urban communities can be is-
lands unto themselves," he said.
"It is imperative that we work
together."
Stanley Weingarden, an at-
torney who lives and works
downtown, says he doesn't see
his role as a Jewish resident as
being any different from that of
other Detroiters. He is presi-
dent of the Friends of the
Detroit Library and sits on the
board of the City of Detroit
Income Tax and Review group.
"(My wife and I) love Detroit.
Everything we do is connected
with the city," said Mr.
Weingarden, who opposed
Federation's move to Bloomfield
Hills two years ago. "Many of
our Jewish friends never come
downtown. I think ifs important
that Jews living in the suburbs
invest their money here." ❑
Clinton Asks U.N.
For A Repeal
United Nations (JTA) —
President Clinton has called
on the U.N. General
Assembly to repeal its past
resolutions condemning
Israel.
Speaking before the world
body, Mr. Clinton said that
"the repeal of outdated U.N.
resolutions" would buttress
peace in the Middle East.
The United States, along
with Russia and Egypt, has
said it would work with
Israel to ensure that dozens
of resolutions critical of
Israel are not automatically
renewed this year.
The drive to overturn one
of those resolutions, which
annually link Israel to South
African apartheid, was ex-
pected to get a boost when
Israeli Foreign Minister
• Shimon Peres was scheduled
to meet with Nelson
Mandela, president of the
African National Congress.
Mr. Mandela addressed
the General Assembly last
week, calling for an end to
sanctions against South .
Africa in the wake of the
scheduling of the country's
first non-racial elections,
and praising the agreement
between Israel and the Pa-
lestinians.
Mr. Clinton, in his U.N.
address, cited both the re-
cent Israeli- Palestinian ac-
cord, and the agreements
between Mr. Mandela and
South African President
F.W. de Klerk, as evidence
that now "is a moment of
miracles."
Mr. Clinton also condemn-
ed terrorism, which
"assumes a horrifying im-
mediacy for us here, when
militant fanatics bombed the
World Trade Center and
planned to attack even this
very hall of peace.
"Let me assure you,
whether (they are) the
plotters of those crimes or
the mass murderers who
bombed Pan Am Flight 103,
my government is deter-
mined to see that such ter-
rorists are brought to
justice." EJ
