Feature Editor Daily News Analysis A violent leadership struggle poses the greatest threat to the Ann Arbor leftist move- ment since Voice Political Party - a group which ori- ginally ran candidates for SGC and tended mainly to campus issues - affiliated itself with national SDS in March of 1963. This year's split, which came to the fore at Voice's second meeting of the year last Tues- day amid furious debate and extreme tensions, is perhaps symptomatic of the pains of re- organizing on the left that have affected radical groups across the 'country. Since Co- lumbia radicals defined new strategies-and, to some ex- tent, new issues - last spring,, militancy of politics and tac- tics have divided the left throughout the nation.l In Ann Arbor, the split ship b (which will come to a head this Tuesday at a meeting in the Union) could -almost represent a play-script for similar dis- putes in other chapters. The issues, the arguments - in some cases, even the faces - are similar. There are two opposing fac- tions in the Voice dispute, both clearly delineated. The first side, which has identified itself as the "Radical Caucus," con- sists primarily of past and pre- sent Voice leadership and most of past years' consistent rank- and-file. At its head are Eric Chester (who was first elected chairman of the organization at the meeting in which Thor- son and Goodman challenged the group's existing structure), Gary Rothberger (another ex- chairman), and Bruce Levine. Their constituency ranges from undergraduates who recognize the three as campus radical "leaders", to "old-timers" who attle threatens Voice Prof essors' report are currently aligned with them because of personal loyal- ty as much as political agree- ment. The other side, labeling it- self "The Jesse James Gang", and adopting a far more mili- tant approach to leftist politics is headed by local radicals from the stgff of the Children's Community School and some new-to-Ann Arbor leftists af- filiated with the Radical Edu- cation Project (REP), the Ann Arbor-based educational arm of national SDS. The Community School's Bill Ayers sees the dispute as centering around the current orientation of Voice} toward "student power" politics. "Student power is not a good thing," Ayers says. "It is based on a tight no- tion of democracy; it isolates the University. You allow stu- dents to decide on the lives of blacks, on the lives of the Vietnamese, on the war itself." He goes on to cite Voice's adherence to the student pow- er doctrine as what killed last year's drive to end classified research at the University. -'Voice employed the typ- ically defensive - not agres- sive - campaign last year, us- ing traditional education cam- paigns, teach-ins, Daily arti- clas, and SGC resolutions. Then, the engineers came out and de- feated Voice in a referendum." Chester points out that the decision to support a referen- dum came only after sit-ins, disruption (of a meeting with University research officials and a representative of the U.S. Navy), and other tactics failed. It is at the point when every- thing else fails, Ayers feels, when radicals must "make value judgements concerning which rights become import- ant. The Vietnamese's right to not eat napalm is far more sacred than the students' right to decide." In this vein, Ayers and other members of the "James Gang" take what they feel is a more aggressive tack than that normally employed by Voice. The politics of confrontation is the doctrine; "aggressive ac- tion" is the tactic. Mentioned as possible tactics --along the lines of "guerrilla theater" activity which has become popular with the left- would be the invasion of a classroom and its "liberation" from its teacher. "If we went into a classroom and told the teacher to leave and started teaching the class the way it ought to be taught." Ayers says, "the students would support it. The y.oung today have a consciousness; it shows in their music, their sex, their dope. Confrontation brings out this consciousness."

'Controvers blegin's today TThree prominent figures in the civil rights struggle will appear today in the University Activities Center's first program of Con- troversy '68. Adam Clayton Powell, former Congressman; Julian Bond, Geor gia state legislatoi;' and Dick Gregory, entertainer and activist will speak on "Black Power in the U.S." at 2 p.m. in Hill Aud. Powell was expelled by the House of Representatives in 1965 over his alleged mishandling of public funds. He was chairman of the House education com- mittee. Bond recently led the challenge to the regular Georgia delegation at the national Demo- cratic convention. Gregory is known as a humorous writer and speaker as well as an activist against racism in the U.S. The three men will also appear at a press conference at 10:45 a.m. in the Union.

Duke quarterback Leo H a r t May submits documents Michigan Sta-te University vice president Philip J.

Deputy Attorney General Leon Cohan said that the same team in- vestigating May's earlier business arrangements would examine affi- davits and other evidence from May by the end of next week. May is vice president for busi- ness and fiance and treasurei' at MSU.

TRANSCRIPT REQUIRED With the exception of first semester freshmen, grade trans- By DAVID KNOKE Daily News Analysis Some members of the Democratic Party are already looking beyond No- vember-to a time when they will no longer be in the White House. Many of the key organizers and work- ers for the anti-Administration drives of Sens. McCarthy, Kennedy and McGov- ern fully expect the Republican can- didate, Richard M. Nixon, to be presi- dent for the next four or eight years. With this expectation in mind, they are either supporting Humphrey with reservations, actively working to defeat him through fourth party or write-in efforts, or working within the party to change its direction when the Bemo- crats no longer control political per- quisites. In the latter area, scores of dissident Democrats will meet in a national con- vention Oct. 4-6 in Minneapolis to campaign, features a'star-studded steer. ing committee. Besides Lowenstein it includes Geor- gia state Rep. Julian Bond; John Cash- in, head of the minority delegation from Alabama; Ronnie Dugger, editor of the Texas Observer; Sanford Gottlieb, chair- man of the Committee for a SANE Nuclear Policy; and Rep. Don Peterson of Minnesota and David Hoeh, chair- man of the New Hampshire delegation. The immediate goals of the 'coalition will be to tone down the bitterness of the Democratic national convention and to advance liberal views on the war, the ghettos and political participation, ac- cording to Prof. Arnold Kaufman, of the philosophy department and a steering committee member. "We intend to exercise a veto over the Democratic ticket." says Kaufman. "The insurgency will remain relatively in- tegral and intact after November, in sues to move the electorate leftward." He concedes that the price of moving the country may be continued defeat in the presidential races, but "we've got to show the opposition our teeth are buried in their necks and'we will not let go." For the time between now, and the election, the coalition people are doing nothing to discourage local efforts by Democrats to defeat the Humphrey- Muskie ticket. "The effort should be visibly Democratic and visibly anti- Humphrey," according to Kaufman, "but should encourage a high voter turnout for local races rather than staying, at home out of disgust with the presi- dential race." In Michigan, a student-centered ef,- fort to write-ip McCarthy for president may run into some trouble should the Minnesota senator declare his support for Humphrey as he may well do on Among intellectuals, this crumbling is continuing at the grass roots even though many of the professional politi- cians who backed McCarthy and Ken- nedy have joined the Humphrey cam- paign since the convention. These. rank- and-file Democrats-students and in- tellectuals politicized in 1968 by their opposition to the war and the Johnson administration-form the backbone of the coalition. Organized labor leaders have declared for Humphrey but are finding a rank- and-file revolt for Wallace amdng union members who feel threatened by rising Negro demands. Labor's price for sup- porting local candidates-a firm com- mitment to the Humphrey-Muskie tick- et-may spell disaster for many liberal candidates, such as Lowenstein or Ohio's Senate hopeful John Gilligan, who have reservations about the ticket.
