Rumors of possible Soviet mil- House larger Proposes $63 million 8} By MARTIN HIRSCHMAN The House Appropriations Committee yesterday reported to the floor a bill recommending re- storation of $2.3 million to the University's 1968-69 general funds budget. Tn March, the Senate passed a bill which would provide 861.3 million. The House committee's bill asks for a $63.6 million ap- propriation. The bill now must be acted' upon by the House and returned to the Senate for concurrence. The House bill still includes a large cut from the University's original request of $75.6 million and is substantially lower than Gov. George Romney's $64.7 pil- lion 'recommendation. University Executive Vice Pres- ident Marvin Niehuss indicated he is fairly pleased with the increase. "Starting wheire we were," he said. "the House committee did as well as could be expected." MISCALCULATION The increase recommend-ed by the committee, Niehuss said, in- cludes $1.8 million which was cut from the bill by the Senate dgue to an error in calculation. Chairman of the Senate Appro- priations C o m m i t t e e Frank Beadle (R-St. Clair) declined comment on the bill, but said that if there is a mistake in the figures used by the Senate, these will be recognized and rectified. In addition, the House com- mittee cut a section from the bill requiring schools with less than 20 per cent out-of-state enroll- ment to limit increases in the number of non-Michigan students. Remaining in the bill, however, is a provision barring state schools1 with over 20 per cent out-of-state unit U' seeks Ludget -Associated Press Ready for Paristalki Ambassador W.

The new Administration Building is only two weeks short of completion, but strikes by the Communications Workers of America, Ann Arbor local, and Carpenters local 512 are hold- ing up the occupancy dalle indefinitely. The situation is complicated by the impending moves of the sociology, geography, and journalism departments and the literary college deans' offices into the present administration building. These changes are contingent on the vacating of office space in the present administration building scheduled to' move into the new building. Paul Spradlin, literary college administrative assistant says "We need to get things going as soon as possible. It is imperative that we move into the old building before the beginning of the fall semester." Spradlin is in charge of directing the move into the present building, which will be called the Literature, Science and the Arts Building. "If we can't make the fall date, we will have to go with a temporary plan that could cause major problems," Spradlin adds. He is going on the assumption that the fall date will be reached with several weeks. Moving during the semester would be "chaotic," he says. The original completion date for the $2.5 million building was mid-May, and would have been reached -had it not been for the strikes says John Weidenbach, Director of Plant Exten- sion. A revised date has not been set due to the uncertainty of1 the labor situation. The building cannot be occupied without telephone service, and some floor covering remains to be installed by the carpenters, says Weidenbach. "We will be able to move into most of the building two weeks after the telephone installers go back to work," he ex- plained, but the 'few areas in the building that require floor covering installation will not be ready for occupancy until the carpenters go back to work. lhe overall scheme of the literary college move to their new building has been one of consolidation of departmental pointment. Following two days of picket- ing, 30 Roosevelt students re- mained outside of Weil's office Tuesday night. Twenty-three of the students were later arrested. WILLFUL LAWBREAKERS Weil, who stayed away from the campus during the Wednes- day incident, termed the students "willful lawbreakers" and said the administrative council had no choice but to call the police. The students, arrested on tres- passing charges and each held on $250 bond, were released yes- terday. Opposing threatened student suspensions, the faculty has or- ganized a committee to register its disapproval with administra- tion tactics. The student said, "Lynd is the kind of professor we've always had here." During the McCarthy era, he continued, several pro-I fessors spoke out openly and were consequently investigated along with the school. These professors, he claimed, were "even worse than Lynd." In recent years, however, aca- demic freedom has been stifled. As a result, the Roosevelt student said, many teachers have left like "rats deserting a sinking ship." GENTLEMANLY GUY Prof. Shaw Livermore, Jr., of University's history department, said it is hard "to separate Lynd the historian and Lynd the ac- tivist." Livermore contended he is "a very presentable character and a very gentlemanly guy." However, Livermore added, Lynd presents potential difficulty since he is "a very insistent activist. It is absolutely inevitable he's go- ing to cause trouble. There are always people who will say 'What the hell you got a guy like that working for you.'" Asked about Weil's ad hominem stand Livermore replied, "You don't hire views You hir nenle and creation of student-faculty last night overwhelmingly ap- cal School, and an increase of Sunday, and new fears swept committees to evaluate programs proved a resolution directing $125,000 for plant equipment end across the city.

President Ho Chi Minih called on the Viet Cong to step up the fight against U.S. "aggression," said Radio Hanoi. The U.S. Command called in hundreds more infantrymen, tanks and helicopter gunships to meet the Viet Cong drive, which late Wednesday had appeared to be tapering off. There were reports, however, that the Viet Cong had brought up reinforcements through the night, covering their infiltration with diversionary shelling at oth- er points. newri ghts coalitionl More than 200 white residents of the AnnbArbor area met at the First Presbyterian Church last nighW to agree on plan, for a new local civil rights group,rthe Coalition for Racial Justice. The group was originally con- ceived at a meeting of 250 mem- bers in the Ann Arbor Community Center during the week after the assassination of Martin Luther King. An acting executive com- mittee of 15 was designated at the meeting. Members of the group have since cooperated with the Black Forum inmweekly picketing of City Council meetings to protest Mayor Wendell Hulcher's appointments to the county Board of Super- visors and the Housing Commis- sion. The Coalition dedicated itself to an attempt to "advance social justice for Negroes and the poor in Ann Arbor," and to provide machinery through which other groups working for this goal may combine their efforts. To this purpose the Coalition has sent letters to more than 100 community groups inviting them to attend a meeting on May 28 in the Community Center to discuss the aims of the organization and solicit their active support. The Coalition will meet once a month to discuss and approve committee activities and coopera- tive services: Between these meet- 'U'-CITY COM MITTEE Panel advises .end to auto rules, By PHILIP BLOCK A joint committee on student vehicle regulations is expected next week to call for the for- mal abolition of the Univer- sity's long-standing bar against student driving on campus. The Joint University-City Committee on Student Vehicle Regulations, an ad hoc commit- tee created by the Regents at their March meeting, has dis- cussed the issue for the past two weeks in an attempt to de- termine the effects of an im- driving regulations last Novem- ber claiming "the Regents con- stitutional authority to govern the internal affairs of the Uni- versity cannot be extended to infringe upon the legislative right to tax 'and license." University student vehicle regulations currently permit students over 21 or with sec- ond semester junior standing to have cars in Ann Arbor. Provi- sions are also made for stu- dents living over a mile and a half away from the campus removal of the regulations. A study made by the Institute for Social Research estimates this new ruling would result in 2500 new vehicles. However, according to Koen- eke, the increase in student owned vehicles would be much less. He cites a 1965 survey col- lected by SGC which indicates that only 25 per cent of those students who own cars do bring cars to campus due tq the ve- hicle regulations. City Traffic and Parking Di- These facts won't be available until September. At this time the first part of a study of Ann Arbor vehicle problems will be completed. The three month preliminary study estimating the number of parking spaces and a study of vehicle flows will be followed by a sec- ond study aimed at discovering possible solutions to , the ve- hicle problems. The vehicle committee is also considering the possible estab- lishment of a permanent stu- dent-community committee to I i r r I
