WASHINGTON P - Senate Democratic leaders agreed
late yesterday to support a six-months' surtax extension and
moved for a floor vote on it today.;
Majority Leader Mike Mansfield (D-Mont.), put aside an-
tiballistic missing legislation and arranged for a debate start-
ing at 12 noon on the embattled tax measurq.
But Mansfield stressed that he believed an understand-
ing had been reached only to pass a six-months continuance
of the income surtax.
Republicans, however, said they would offer amendmentsj
in an attempt to obtain the full year's extension sought by
President Nixon and for repeal of the seven per cent invest-
ment credit, also sought by the President.

A felony charge against Robert
Gustafson for violating the so
called 1968 Michigan riots and un-

because of lack of witnesses.
The charges against Gustafson,
who was arrested during the June
incidents on South University,
carry a maximum penalty of 10
years in jail and/or a $10,000 fine.
According to the 1968 act, "it

By JUDY SARASOHN
Gov. William Milliken yes-
terday placed the search for
the murderer or murderers of
seven young women slain in
the Ann Arbor-Ypsilanti area
under the direction of State
Police Director Fredrick Da-
vids.
Milliken also requested the Fed-
eral Bureau of Investigation to
take an official part in the inves-
tigation. The FBI is expected to
decide today whether it can leg-
ally assume a major role in the
hunt for the murderer.
Milliken said yesterday that af-
ter meeting with.Atty. Gen. Frank
Kelley Monday, he decided "to in-
voke a long standing statute and
put Col. Davids in charge of the
investigation."
Previously, the murder investi-
gation was coordinated by County
Prosecutor William Delhey a n d
personnel were contributed to a
command center by area police
agencies, including officers from
the State Police.
Both Milliken and Kelley said
that this "move did not indicate
any dissatisfaction with the in-
vestigation of the local officials.
However, County Sheriff Douglas
Harvey recently has drawn much*
criticism for his handling of the
investigation thus far.
Undersheriff Harold Owings Jr.
* did not respond enthusiastically to
the governor's decision. He claimed
that there are ,"only a certain
number of universal police proce-
dures" which can legally be used
rin a police investigation.
