A felony charge against Robert Gustafson for violating the so called 1968 Michigan riots and un- lawful assemblies act was dis- missed yesterday in District Court 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 is unlawful and constitutes the crime of riot for five or more per- sons acting in concert to wrong- fully engage in violent condluct and thereby intentionally or reck- lessly cause or create a serious risk irq of public terror or alarm." these amendments. He appar- ently expected to rally all of the Democrats to support him since he said he had the un- animous backing of his Policy Committee and of Democrats on the Finance Committee. The logjam over the surtax was. broken when the Democrats de-t cided to extend their compromise offer to six months, or Dec. 31, from the five months they had! been insisting on for the p a s t week.

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.
