VALUABLE REFERENDUM?
Housing vote reactions vary

Lloyd Hall

CLEVELAND
WILL INTERVIEW MON DAY
AT HILLEL-1429 HILL

(Continued from Page 1)
agrees, but views such a shift-
transferring money from one Uni-
versity department to another-as
selfish and arbitrary.
The other reason administrators
doubt the validity of the referen-
dum is, its lack of representative-
ness. In the past the administra-
tion has said it will iiot be bound
by SGC referenda, for which only
a minority of students generally
vote.
Vice President- for Academic
Affairs Allan Smith expressed this
sentiment last year in reference
to Council's referendum on stu-
dent control of funding new con-
struction facilities. And just this
week the Regents barred a com-
pulsory $3 fee assessment to add
money to the Martin Luther King
Scholarship Fund. The assessment
was approved by students in the
same election which presented the
low-cost housing questions.
Scott acknowledges the small
turnout, but says that enough
s t u d e n t s expressed concern to
warrant the construction of hous-
ing on students' behalf. "In an

election where not many people:
voted, here is an issue which de- ,
cisively won," he says.
He also claims that the per-
centage which did vote is probably,
larger than the fraction of the
vote the Regents receive in their
election.
Despite apparent reluctance on
the part of administrators to
honor the referendum, however,
the students believe it served a!
useful purpose by legitimizing stu-
dent concern on the issue. This
was accomplished, they say, by
placing of the housing issue on
the election ballot of SGC - the
students' institutional representa-
tive.
"Now we can say we tried the+
channels," one student said
And some students maintain the
channels may be closed. The ad-
ministration does not believe the
University can finance the hous-
ing's construction - but students
do. The gray area involves a value
judgment - priorities - over
which students and administrators
have historically disagreed. To
many students, the issue is similar

to the Black Action Movement
demands, for which the University
ultimately found the money when
it was pushed.
Will the University, in fact, be
pushed again? Denton says IS has!
adopted the low-cost housing drive
as its main issue for fall and con-
tends that militant tactics may
be used. Scott and Council member
Joan Martin say that SGC may
need to pursue "more creative
means" to accomplish their goal.
What' those means will be,
whether the goal can be reached
and whether the issue will be con-
sidered institutionally are all un-
clear now. And until these ques-
tions are clarified and some un-
derstanding is reached between
students and the administration,
those referendum results may re-
main stacked in the SGC office
for some time to come.
Court fails to

decision has been made about
O'Brien's offer.
Quinn said he will submit a brief
and complaint to the U.S. Su-
preme Court as soon as possible,
but doesn't expect the court to
hear the case until the October
term.
Quinn said the suit would be
filed as a class action, one or more
soldiers would be named but it
would apply to all- Massachusetts
servicemen.
Some staff members of Quinn's
office said the Supreme Court
might, rule the state law uncon-
stitutional because it raises polit-
ical rather than legal questions.
Sen. Abraham Ribicoff (D-
Conn), questioned the law at a
news conference here Friday by
saying, "It would be unfortunate
to think that every state could
make its own determination on
national policy."

pedited collection of estate and
gift taxes which he said would
produce a one-shot revenue wind-
fall of $1.5 billion in the 1971 fis-
cal year.
When addeddto sums already
budgeted for federal pay increases,
the President said, Thursday's
settlement can be paid for through
mid-1971 through adoption of his
proposals. But he emphasized that
other permanent revenue legisla-
tion would be needed thereafter.
The Senate Post Office Com-
mittee will take up Nixon's request
for postal-rate boosts Monday but
there is considerable question
about how far and how fast Con-
gress will move on this pocket-
book issue in an election year.
One congressional source noted
that the first-class rate never has
been increased more than a cent at
a time.
Another question that remains
to be answered is whether the
postal workers will accept the pro-
posed package. Already it has
brought some rumblings from big-
city employes who have been in-
sisting on differentials to cover
high living costs in'their areas.
And there is some skepticism
among postal union members over
when they might get the second,
8 per cent increase.
Nixon was rather optimistic
about acceptance of his proposal,
however. "Had this action been
taken earlier, the postal work
stoppage would have been avert-
ed," he said.
John D. Ehrlichman, a presi-
dential counsel, hinted that postal
pay increases would hinge on
favorable action on higher postal
rates. But he would not say that
Nixon would veto legislation if
Congress refused to act simul-
taneously on the question of rates.

ROOM 231 ANGELL HALL

BRITAIN'S ARMY CHIEF in Northern Ireland says his men
will shoot to kill if attacked by people throwing gasoline bombs.
The warning came after three straight nights of rioting in Bel-
fast's Springfield Road area, the dividing line between Roman Catholic
and Protestants housing developments.
A good deal of the recent violence, during which three soldiers
were injured by gasoline bombs, rocks, bottles and other hurled
missiles, has been blamed on teenage hooligans.
A bomb exploded early this morning against the front df a fur-
niture store on a Protestant street, but little damage and no casualties
were reported.
An army spokesman said that the army chief's speech "seems to
be paying off. We've got a lot of troops out ... The idea is to stifle
it before it starts."
REPUBLICAN LEADERS in the Senate claim a sure 49 votes
against a move to send back to committee the Supreme Court
nomination of G. Harrold Carswell.
If the nomination of the 50-year-old Florida judge survives
recommittal the Senate will vote Wednesday on confirmation.
That would be more than enough to block the motion because four
of the 100 senators are not expected to be present for the first key
vote.
Meanwhile yesterday, Senators opposing the nomination demand-
ed that the Justice Department explain why it did not produce
"significant and easily discovered information bearing on the nomi-
nee's fitness."
In a letter to Attorney General John Mitchell, four senators said
that in the past the FBI. has been under instructions to investigate
a federal judicial nominee's racial attitudes with particular care.
Yet in the case of Carswell, they said, disclosure of a 1948 white
supremacy speech and the Florida judge's participation in incorporat-
ing a segregated golf club were revealed by private citizens.
TRUCKING STRIKES ended in some cities yesterday, but
continued in others and spread to new areas.
Despite a three-year tentative national agreement to hike wages
$1.10 per hour, new strikes broke out in Miami and Tampa Florida.
Walkouts of thousands of men continued for the third day in
St. Louis, Cleveland and St. Paul despite a national Teamsters Union
request to go back, to work pending a vote on the proposed contract.
Meanwhile, in an attempt to end the air controllers' rebellion, top
officials of the Professional Air Traffic Controllers Organization
scheduled a news conference to order the controllers back publicly
in compliance with a court-directed agreement with the government.
For the first time since the sick-call campaign began Wednesday
of last week, the Airline Transport Association reported fewer flight
cancellations and shorter delays.
The Federal Aviation Administration reported no significant
back-to-work trend.
"We see a slight over-all improvement, but not enough to have
much effect," a spokesman said.
Absenteeism continued high at key facilities in New York, .Chi-
cago, Kansas City and Minneapolis-St. Paul.
THE AFL-CIO International Association of Machinists and
strikebound National Airlines yesterday agreed on -a three,-year
contract.
The contract will raise pay of some 1,000 mechanics a reported
$1.10 per hour but the agreement will not get National's planes back
in the air until it settles with the striking Air Line Employes Asso-
ciation representing clerks and ticket agents.
CHANCELLOR WILLY BRANDT leaves for the United States
today for talks with President Nixon.
In addition to talks concerning the European Common Market,
Brandt said the issue of future American troop levels in Europe would
be discussed.
The Chancellor warned against "dramatizing" voices in the
American Congress that are calling for reduction of the 310,000-man
U.S. troop level in Europe if Bonn and other European governments
do not come up with more money.

"It is doubtful that a military
system which does not itself pro-
vide equality of opportunity for its
own members can truly ensure.;.
freedom for its country's citizens."
These statements by Col. Holm
and Dr. Turner appeared, some-
. what surprisingly, in the Defense
Management Journal, a Pentagon
publication devoted to discussing
ways to stimulate cost reduction
and efficiency.
There are more than 40,000
womenrserving in the Army, Navy,
Marines and Air Force, doing
mainly clerical work, medical ad-
ministration, and certain technical
assignments..
Various commissions and other
agencies in the past have called
for improving opportunities for
women in the military, thus re-
ducing the number of men called
in the draft.
Postpone cleaning
The "spring cleaning" scheduled
today for the Huron River has
been postponed until May 16. At
that time, students and any Ann
Arbor citizens concerned about
the environment will gather at
North Campus Commons to leave
for the various cleanup areas.
The "cleaning" is being coor-
dinated by the Environmental Ac-
tion Committee (ENACT).
