"The income tax introduces some progessivity - that's why the Chamber of Commerce, the Realtors and the Republicans don't want it," claims Harris. "It's not more equity they want, it's more money," asserts Con- nelly. The opponents of the tax package say the 40-45 per cent of Ann Arbor's residents who are renters will be in effect taxed twice. The renters, say the opponents of the tax package, will not re- ceive the benefits of the property tax cut, because their landlords include the property tax in their rent but will not reduce their rent if the tax package is approved. Nevertheless, they say, the renters will have to begin pay- ing the income tax. The mayor concedes that the renters will be paying more initially, but he believes that they will be better off in the long run. He supports this argument by pointing out that a property tax in- crease is almost always financed by an increase in rent, but he believes an income tax would not similarly result in increased rents. "Most landlords are getting a break on the income tax because of accelerated depreciation," adds Harris. Accelerated depreciation allows a large realtor to deduct from his income 20 per cent of his property value each year for the first five years he owns the property. Harris asserts that several realtors in Ann Arbor buy and sell property to each other so that they can take turns writing it off. One of the income tax critics other major objections is that non- residents of Ann Arbor will be taxed without an opportunity to vote on it. "Taxation of non-residents is taxation without representation," argues the Chamber of Commerce report. Harris counters that it is a matter of charging the people who earn their income in the city for the facilities that they use. "You want to tax affluent people who live outside the city but who earn their living in Ann Arbor," he says. He admitted that very poor people who work in Ann Arbor and live elsewhere must also pay a new tax but he says the tax they will pay will be very small. The most severe case would be a single non-resident mar who earns $4,000 a year, but he would be paying less than $15 dollars to Ann Arbor in taxes, Harris computes.

For example, there were anthro- pology, medical and engineering, as well as law students among the Raiders. While Bowers is unstinting in his praise of Nader, he is not 1without criticism. The basic dif- ference between Bowers and Na- der is that between a radical and a liberal. "Nader's approach or changing leadership of existing organiza- tions is elitist," Bowers says. "The power must be returned to the people-such as the members of the United Mine Workers-and this calls for restructuring of society as a whole, not just help- ing elect more liberal union presi-, dents." "I arrived at the conclusion that to wor'k within the system {can not ultimately achieve the goals Nader is reaching for," he concludes. Bowers himself is not "going to do what the law school is pre-: paring me to do." A radical law firm or work in the Nader tradi- tion are the first two alternatives which come to his mind. The work of the Raiders from this summer is not yet done. They are in the process of drafting "heavily-documented" reports on their summer's investigations which will be published as a book by next year. VISTA gets Ghoulish Meals little support (Continued from Page 1) for example. But, then there are places like Ohio State-There are 44,000 students at Ohio State and we only gave out two appplica- tions." The recruiter did stress, how- ever, that getting recruits has not been a serious problem. "We don't have trouble getting applicants, but what we need is good appli- cants. We need more mature stu- dents, not those running away from their own problems," he said. Recruiters indicated that thoseI students stopping by at the SAB were far better informed and more interested in VISTA than their counterparts on North Campus and at the fishbowl. "People who come to the SAB are generally in- terested in applications," said Tomezyk. Another recruiter, Mary Crow- ley, seemed disturbed by the "do- mestic peace corps" image attached to the organization. Unlike the Peace Corp worker who Miss Crowley saw as "a giver of knowledge," she saw the role of the VISTA worker as "helping people meet the community needs whatever they may be."
