THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 33,1966 THE MICHIGAN DAILY TSEEI THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3,1966 THE MICHIGAN I~AILY TW1?~VR 1 111411 iJ a, Lieutenant-Governor Hopefuls Stump Michigan EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the third in a five-part series on the major statewide races in she Nov. 8 elec- tion. It deals with the race for lieutenant governor. By The Associated Press The lieutenant governor's race is a contest between "also rans" whose job it is to try to become "also wons." Sipce the 1963 State Constitution went into effect, the governor and lieutenant governor run as a team -ending the sometimes awkward situation in which a governor of one party and a lieutenant gov- ernor of another party are elected and forced to work together for the next few years. That happened in 1962, when Republican George Romney was elected governor while Democrat T. John Lesinski was picked as lieutenant governor. The situation produced some colorful conflict, but there were questions as to whether this split in the executive office produced anything else for the benefit of the state. This year's contest is between Republican Lt. Gov, William G. Milliken of Traverse City and Democratic challenger John B. Bruff of Mount Clemens. Each is running on the platform of his party's gubernaforial can- didate, and trying to campaign where his running mate isn't. Milliken is campaigning on the accomplishments of the Romney Administration in 1963-64 and of the Romney-Milliken Administra- tion, 1965-66. Bruff, like Democratic gover- natorial candidate Zolton Ferency, is attacking that record, com- plaining of a $167 million surplus in the State Treasury while needs go unmet, and claiming most of the advances in the past two years for the Democrat-dorinated Legislature. Milliken's schedule is coordi- nated by a committee that tries to get him into outstate areas while Romney is in the metropoli- tan Detroit area and vice versa. Ferency's schedule usually is not announced far enough in ad- vance to allow Bruff to set his own schedule accordingly, but he tries to expand the Democratic gubernatorial campaign by filling the gaps in Ferency's schedule. The lieutenant governor's job is to act as governor when the chief executive is out of the state or otherwise unable to perform his duties. He is first in line to suc- ceed the governor. The lieutenant governor is a member of the Ad- ministrative Board and presides over the Senate without vote. Milliken is president of J. W. Milliken Inc., which runs three department stores in Traverse City, Cadillac and Manistee. He ran for his first public office in 1960. He was elected to the State Senate that year and two years later was selected majority floor leader. In 1964 he was se- lected at the Republican State At 44, Milliken is youthful, a]- lem that plagued Ferency at the most boyish, in appearance, and start of fall campaign-lack of gives the appearance of being voter recognition. younger than his opponent, al- In fact, at the start of the Dem- though Bruff is only 37. ocratic nominating convention last Milliken also stands a chance August. few party delegates out- of becoming governor automatic- side of the Macomb County con- ally in a few years. tingent knew who he was.

The Red raiders killed six Amer- ican soldiers and a South Korean on duty with them. They wound- ed the eighth man, an American, in the gravest such incident in- volving U.S. servicemen in this peninsular nation since the Ko- rean War ended in 1953. A4 In Washington, the United States expressed serious concern over the series of attacks, which have taken the lives of 23 Ko- reans and six American soldiers since Oct. 15. State Department The State Department said there was no connection between the incidents and Johnson's visit to South Korea. North Korea's central news agency, without referring to the ambush, broadcast a declaration from Pyongyang that Johnson had been "sowing' the seeds of a new war" in Korea. In another dis- patch, it charged that American troops staged various provocations and fired more than 800 bullets into Communist territory during five consecutive days, Oct. 25-29, and again on Oct. 31. 'Intolerable' President Chung Hee Park's Seoul government denounced the ambush as an "intolerable and barbarous act which deserves con- denmation by all free peoples of the world." Information Minister Hong Jong-chul suggested the raid grew out of North Korean jealousy over South Korea's "fast economic progress and enhanced national prestige in the international com- munity," attained with substantial American help. President and Mrs. Johnson were sleeping at their hotel in Seoul when grenade explosions opened the attack on the patrol at a; point, 30 miles away, about 800 yards south of the demilitarized zone between North and South Korea. President The President was advised of the ambush as he boarded his plane. His staff announced at a stop in Anchorage, Alaska, that he had asked for a complete report from Gen. Charles H. Bonesteel. Johnson had talked only Tuesday with Bonesteel, who heads both the U.S. 8th Army and the United Nations Command in Korea. A U.S. spokesman said there was evidence that the patrol returned the Communist fire and it was "quite a good engagement." There was no report of any casualties, however, among the ambushers. The American survivor, hit by a grenade but reported in good con- dition, said the attackers wore North Korean army uniforms. The spokesman said expended shell casings which relief patrols found in the area were Communist-made. Identification of all the victims was temporarily withheld. The South Korean was a Katu- sa. The Katusas are English- speaking South Korean soldiers assigned to help fill gaps in un- derstrength American units. The demilitarized zone, 22 miles wide, winds for 151 miles across rough country between the Yel- low Sea and the Sea of Janan. n Asia Manila conference on the war in Viet Nam. "Those that are nearest the danger, closest to the aggression in Viet Nam, recognize it most clearly for what it really is," Johnson said, "a campaign to de- stroy and to conquer a small country." "Each of us at the Manila con- ference rejected the voice of the appeaser and the heel of the ag- gressor," Johnson, said in an ar- rival speech televised and broad- cast nationally. "We agreed that our goal is an honorable peace, just as soon as it can be obtained," he said.

I FE ... BONN, Germany MP)-Chancel, for Ludwig Erhard, beset by a crisis generated in part by diffi- culty in finding money to fulfill promises to buy arms in the Unit- ed States, said yesterday he will resign if necessary. Some leaders of the party, the Christian Democrats, have urged him to quit. Though Erhard was West Germany's most popular po- litician when he succeeded Kon- rad Adenauer as chancellor Oct. 16, 1963, he has been sliding down- hill politically for several weeks. New taxes are considered nec- essary to patch a hole in the 1967 budget, a shortage of revenues es- timated to range from the equiva- lent of $725 million to a billion dollars. Arms Sale At least $450 million is needed to complete promises to buy armsl in the United States. Such pur- chases help to offset the dollar drain in the maintenance of American armed forces in Ger- many. A squabble over the taxes led to the resignation of four Free Democratic party ministers from Erhard's coalition government last week, leaving only Christian Dem- ocrats at the helm. They lack a majority in Parliament and it is uncertain whether new levies can be approved. Erhard, now 69, told a closed- door meeting of party leaders that he would not stand in the.way of formation of a new government. Caucus . Will Rasner, the Christian Dem- ocrat floor manager of the Bund- estag, relayed that statement to newsmen after a caucus of the party's Bundestag membership. An infol ned source said earlier that Erhard had agreed to resign if he could take part fully in se- lection of a new government chief. It has been widely reported that he favors Gerhard Schroeder, the foreign minister, as his successor. To get a new majority, they will be compelled either to renew the alliance with the Free Democrats or to seek a new one with the op- position Socialists. ( OWBOY IN ABSENTIA by DENNIS F.
