r the news today by The Associated Press and College Press Service SEN. JOHN STENNIS (D-Miss) said he was pushing an amendment for uniform national enforcement of school desegre- gation policies. Stennis said he wanted people in the North to find out what "massive integration" means. He declared that the South has been the scene of an all-out attack on school segregation while virtually nothing had been done in the North. While Sen. Jacob Javits (R-NY) conceded that segregation caused by residential patterns was a serious problem in the North, he said Stennis' proposal would do nothing to help the situation. UNITED NATIONS SECRETARY-GENERAL U Thant de- clared it is up to the Big Four powers to take strong measures to avoid new catastrophe in the Middle East. Thant said the U.N. cease-fire proclaimed at the end of the 1967 Arab-Israeli war was now "totally ineffective." Meanwhile, in Israel Prime Minister Golda Meir proposed that in the absence of peace, Israel and the Arabs should adopt a reciprocal observance of the cease-fire. Thant and Mrs. Meir expressed their views after Israeli planes struck Egyptian depots storing Soviet-supplied missiles within 20 miles of Cairo. Fruehauf Corp. picket continues By HESTER PULLING "My husband's sick and I'm not getting any money-it's really hard to continue striking, but we want our rights," said one picketing woman at Detroit's Fruehauf Trailer Corp. yester- day. Thirty-five members of the Women's Liberation Coalition of Michigan joined the striking clerical workers yesterday on the picket line. Eighty per cent of the 300 striking office w o r k e r s are women. They have been striking since November. "It's certainly no lark; the weather's cold and lots of peo- ple just don't seem to care but I'm going to stay until I'm forced to go," another striker said. The protesters milled around the entries to the factory's parking lot chanting songs and trying to prevent "scab" work- -ers' cars from entering. The police, armed with clubs, forced the strikers back, but several times the protesters managed to force cars away. Antagonism towards the po- lice ran high. "They like to hit us just to see us buckle," one man said. Another woman striker said, "One cop kept shoving me in the breast, trying to make me move." At present the strikers' future looks grim. Fruehauf Corp. has refused to negotiate with them either personally or through the local UAW 889, and the company is now trying to get an injunc-' tion to limit the picketing. "If they get the injunction we're just as good as finished," said one striker. "With just a few picketers, everyone will ig- nore us." "We need all the support we can get," another striking work- er said. "We really appreciate Women's Liberation and other groups coming in to help us." -Women's Liberation became involved because the strike is an attempt to unionize clerical workers, most of whom are women. "Few office workers in the country are organized, which means most women workers have no means to fight the pervasive discrimination against them which exists in the labor market," a Women's Liberation statement read. The strikers' demands include equal pay for equal work, pro- motions "according to ability and senority," better working conditions, increased retirement benefits, increased health in- surance, guaranteed maternity leave, higher wages, the right to unionize, and ending sex dis- crimination. Many strikers feel their ef- forts have been hampered by inadequate news coverage. "The Detroit papers are 'afraid to write about us," one woman said. "If their office workers find out that we're striking they'll prob- ably join in too." IL 11 Positively DIAL Ends Wednesday 8-6416 VIVlEN LEIGH and MARION BRANDO ~. IN The Great Screen Classic by , Tennessee Williams and Directed by ELIA KAZAN N1itmdDee *ici41P Da~i I1 THE INTERNATIONAL DISARMAMENT conference resumed with the United States and the Soviet Union apparently in agree- ment concerning nuclear weapons. There is, however, broad disagreement on the question of bio- logical and chemical warfare. The U.S. is backing a British treaty draft that would ban the manufacture, stockpiling and use of bio- logical weapons. The Soviet Union is insisting on a blanket treaty banning both chemical and biological weapons. Western officials regard the Soviet stand as extreme and un- realistic because of the impossibility of barring chemical agents- such as tear and riot-control gases-which are already in tactical use among the armed forces. DEPUTY AMBASSADOR TO VIETNAM William E. Colby said the South Vietnamese are "very close" to the point where they could handle the Viet Cong if the North Vietnamese with- drew their forces. He declined, however, to estimate how long it would take the South Vietnamese to control the country against the North Vietnamese and the Viet Cong if the United States withdrew its forces. Asked if they could achieve this within 10 years, Colby said: "I think they could if nothing else arose.' U.S. REPRESENTATIVE JOHN CONYERS (D-Mich) led many Detroit-area organizations in urging Sen. Robert Griffin to change his mind about supporting the nomination of Judge G. Harold Carswell to the U.S. Supreme Court. Griffin has said he will support Carswell because he sees no no question of ethics, as there was in the case of Haynsworth,. whc was accused of conflict of interest. In his letter to Griffin, Conyers asked: "Should not racism in a nominee's background be just as disqualifying as conflicts of interest?"

The purpose of the committee is to seek nomination by the Dem- ocratic party of students as can- didates for the Board of Regents of the University, Michigan State University, and Wayne State Uni-, versity. However, a student may not serve as a regent of the school he attends, so any University stu9 dent would have to run for the board of another school.

The rally was organized by the ad hoc committee against repres- sion. Neal Bush, a member of the National Lawyer's Guild, discussed the contempt sentences of the Chi- cago 7 defendants and the rela- tionship of the law school to na- tional and local incidents. He accused the school of pro- ducing lawyers concerned only with corporate and property law instead of political law, citing the fact that the University was not, one of the five universities who sent professors to work on the Chicago trial. Bush also criticized the Law School for not giving credit to stu- dents for trial work as other' schools do. "What we are asking for is a place in the Law School to teach about political trials," he explain- ed. "We must be committed to pro- ducing the best political lawyers. There are at the most 40 political lawyers in the country now. Two of them will be in jail in May." Ted Spearman, a member of the Black Law Students Alliance, (BLSA) declared, "We are dealing' with a morally corrupt society. We must assault them; the time for asault is near. It begins with notj Fleming sets search committee for new medical school dean being friendly with those who do not adhere to your morals. What I'm saying is don't be a hypocrite." The third speaker was Don Koster, an Ann Arbor lawyer who described himself as "a law stu- dent taking exams every day be- fore some pretty strange people." Koster cited instances in which representatives of the law, suchas Judges and police officers, have not been responsive to the rights of individuals. He said Michigan is still the only state to allow "legal search and seizure." "It's time that the poor should be allowed to come to this insti- tution; they are not be definition stupid," Koster said. "They should get involved with the law., "I also think you should take a look at the law itself. Might not law students get involved in try- ing to change parts of it? The area of compromise in this school is turning out nice, complacent law students to go into law firms to maintainthe status quo." The rally was part of National Anti-Repression Week, which be- gan on Feb. 14. The week will end with a Malcolm X Memorial on Feb. 21, which has been designated as National Conspiracy Day. An informational and tactical meeting on conspiracy trials in general and organized by the Na- tional Lawyers Guild will be held today at 12:30 in room 100 of Hutchins Hall. Speakers will include Law Prof. Arthur Miller, who will comment on the contempt charges of the Chicago 7 Trial, and Profs. David: Chambers and Jerry Israel who will talk on the constitutionality of the conspiracy statute. Speakers from the Laywers Guild will include Neal Bush, Tom Jennings and Dave Berry. Nixon supports proposal Backs vote for 18-year-olds in federal elections WASHINGTON ( - A Jus- tice Department spokesman told a senate panel yesterday that President Nixon favors a constitutional amendment permitting 18-year-o 1 d s to vote in national elections. Deputy Atty. Gen, Richard 0. Kleindienst testified that such an amendment would be the best so- lution to lowering the voting age while still allowing the states a free hand in setting the qualifi- cations for voters in state and lo- cal elections. The legal age for voting In na- tional elections now is 21. Klein- dienst rejected arguments that younger persons cannot be trust- ed to exercise the responsibility of the ballot. He said many of the persons associated with campus rebellions and disruptive political activism are well past 21 and represent on- ly a small percentage of young Americans. "The vast majority - both in school and at work - are living responsible, constructive lives," Kleindienst said. "These mature young people should not be pen- alized for the actions of a few." Klendienst said the Nixon ad- ministration believes that giving young persons the vote and a re- sponsible role in the political pro- cess may eliminate what he called a sense of frustration and nonin- volvement that has possibly led to the irresponsible behavior of a few. "The ballot box is the best place to channel the opinions of such people within - not without -- the existing political frameworks," Kleindienst said. Klendienst said however t h e administration believes this should extend only to elections for pres- ident, vice president, U.S.' sea- tors and members of the House of Representatives. "The voting age for participa- tion in all remaining elections - both state and local-should con- tinue to be a question for each state to determine," he said. Except for these 537 federal of- fices, Kleindienst said, "we feel voting age qualifications a r e questions of legitimate local con- cern best resolved at the state level. Kleindenst testified before the Senate subcommittee on consti- tutionalamendments which has been taking testimony from sup porters and opponents of a pro- posal to lower the voting age in all elections.
