Taxpayer sues city for illegal tax levy LEADERS BEGIN FAST Dissident Berkeley students endorse another class boycott (Continued from Page 1) city has in the past added this sum to the amount it raises by special, levy for the other parts of its pension plan. Since 1964 it has levied $419,129 for payment of its social security liabilities. Concerning the third tax, the garbage collection levy, Carpenter charges the city is using funds collected under this tax for rub- bish collection which is not in- cluded in the state law authorizing the tax. Carpenter believes the cost of garbage collection alone does not exceed 25 per cent of the combined costs of both garbage and rub- bish collection. According to Carpenter's cal- culations, the city since 1964 has levied $1,652,456 in excess taxes over and above the funds needed for garbage collection alone. The case is being tried by John C. Dalton, a Jackson County Cir- cuit Court Judge. Dalton was call- ed in to hear the case because presiding Judge James R. Brea- key, Jr.' said his relations with Carpenter concerning local cases would prejudice his handling of a case with Carpenter as plaintiff. City officials have said they are puzzled over Carpenter's motives for the suit. One official said Car- penter was pushing for a muni- cipal income tax to replace the taxes which he charges are illegal However, Carpenter said yester day his real complaint was tha the city officials "weren't playinE by the rules" and that "they wer guilty of incredible negligence b3 not knowing the limits of th city's taxation powers." Kelley rulingj unchallengoed (Continued from Page 1) ahead with it anyway. Ross point- ed out however, "now the write-ir is like voting for Dick Gregory, though there is a remote chance that if the election is extremel3 close, we can demand that our votes be counted." Ross admitted that the ,group should not have asked Kelley for his opinion on the write-in. He also said that a greater effor should have been made to submit their electors by the Sept. 3 filing date. They would then have beer placed on the ballot, and a write- in would not have been necessary, Many of the Ann Arbor Mc- Carthy supporters are now con- centrating on obtaining a coffee shop to serve as a meeting place for those interested in politics. 1. t ' e Y' e :1 From Wire Service Reports Some 2500 dissident University of California students at Berkeley voted three to one at a rally yes- terday to endorse a class boycott to protest the noncredit status of a course on racism whose main lecturer. is Black Panther Eldridge Cleaver.

At the rally, student body pres- ident Charlie Palmer and Kon- stantine Barlandt, editor of the student newspaper, the Daily Cal; began a fast to call attention to their demands.
