PARIS -Fresh strikes spreadf across France yesterday, engulf- ing the national radio television network, Orly Airport and some railroads, but union leaders re- buffed a studen' bid for joint ac- tion against thei government of President Charles deGaulle. The Communist-led General Confederation of Labor in effect warned the students, whose dem- onstrations triggered the current wave of academic and industrial unrest to mind their own busi- ness.The ,confederation said it. wanted to avoid any pretext for government intervention. Thousands of workers put down tools and in many cases occupied their factories. The stoppages spread to parts of the govern- ment-owned railway system. Reasons for the strikes varied' almost from plant to plant, but few of the country's 95 geograph- ical departments' districts were not involved. The various demands included higher wages, a reduced work week and earlier retirement ages. Nearly 2,000 university students marched across Paris to express their solidari'ty with 23,000 strik- ers at the big Renault auto fac- tory despite the snub from union' leaders.

By STEVE NISSEN University Presiient Robben W. Fleming said yesterday a tuition increase next fall is almost a certainty. The "only question now is the amount," he added. Fleming declined to speculate on the size of the tuition hike. Informed sources, however, in- dicate the Regents may raise the out-of-state level to as much as $1500 for undergraduates based on state appropriations of about $63.6 million. That increase would mean non- resident student fees would be $100 per semester higher than this year. The Senate Appropriations Committee had recommended a, $174 per semester increase based on the principle that an out-of- state student should pay 75 per cent of the University's cost in educating him. IN-STATE STUDENTS Fleming indicated that in-state tuition would also have to be in- creased. However he said :"it is' almost certain that the increase for out-of-state students will be substantially higher." Sources indicated the in-state hike might be $35 per semester. Fleming said the Regents "agreed to hold a special meeting" as soon .as the legislature agrees on a final level for University ap- propriations. The bills passed by the House and Senate differ by $2.3 million. The size of the tuition increase for both in-state and out-of-state students depends on negotiations b e t w e e n the two legislative branches. 'KEEP GOING UP' Fleming said if the legislature insists the University charge out- of-state students 75 per cent of the cost, "it is inevitable that out- of-state tuition will just keep going up." He said it would not be prac- tical to charge out-of-state grad- uate students 75 per cent of the educational cost because grad- uate programs are more expensive than in the undergraduate divi- sion. Fleming said it would not be difficult to raise undergraduate tuition to the point where out-of- state students are paying 75 per cent of the educational cost. For graduate students, however, he cited the case of the Medical School where, he said, the per- student cost i "astronomical." Fleming defended the necessity of any tuition increases.

See SENATE, Page 2, Tentative agreement was reach- ed yesterday between Laborers Local 959 and representatives of the General Contractors Associa- tion and the Home Builders Asso- cition of Ann Arbor (GCA-HBA). Terms of the agreement were not released pending union rati- fication of the new contract Wed- nesday. Previously the GCA-HBA was offering a six per cent in- crease over, a two year period. The tentative agreement was termed "a step in the right direc- tion by Enos Greer, business man- ager for the laborers. Representa- tives of the GCA-HBA added the new contract was "a positive step." The laborers have been work- ing without contract since their contract expired May 1. Members of TroWel Trades Local 14 (bricklayers), are expected to vote on a proposed contract next Thursday. Terms of the contract have not been disclosed. The unions previously rejected a re-a quest for binding arbitration of-1 fered by the GCA-HBA. Joseph Wojowicz, business agent for the bricklayers' union said "We want t think the contractors are ready to settle down to serious discussions.
