By THOMAS COPI
Special To The Daily
LANSING-Michigan did more
to prepare for the future during
1963 than in any single year in
this century, Gov. George Romney
boasted in his State-of-the-State
message presented Jan. 9.
Romney urged that "we should

use this preparation to help
people," and added that "Mich-
igan, unlike many states, is on a
pay-as-you-grow basis."
He declared that at the end of
this fiscal year the state will have
turned the budget deficit of $85
million which existed 18 months
ago into a treasury surplus of
"at least $35 million."
Romney said that his recom-
mendations "are designed to meet
two basic objectives-to protect
and enlarge human rights, and
to serve human needs."
State Services
In line with these goals, the
governor made recommendations
for strengthening existing state
services, initiating new programs,
strengthening local government,
and enabling the state to partici-
pate in "some established na-
tional programs."
Following the national lead of
President Lyndon B. Johnson,
Romney proposed the initiation
of a state-wide belt-tightening,
presenting several measures for
spending cuts by the state: cut-
ting budget requests of various
state agencies, working out more
efficient use of present state fa-
cilities, reducing of printing costs,
limiting use of state-owned ve-
hicles, and not filling vacancies
which occur in state. agencies un-
til it has been resolved through.
extensive study that such posi-
tions are necessary.
In drawing up the budget, Rom-
ney said that he is planning to
budget a surplus this year by
spending "less than we will have
available." He indicated also
that money could be saved by
taking care only of "immediate
urgent needs."
Romney also suggested pro-
grams for the elimination of il-

literacy, poverty and disease in
the state, saying that "with the
tools we now have there is no
insurmountable barrier to this
elimination."
In urging changes in programs
affecting mental health, social
welfare, youth problems and jobs
and job holders, the governor sug-
gested that changes can be made
in the state's ADC-U program to
"qualify Michigan for federal
funds with a plan that includes
training and rehabilitation." He
pressed for a state minimum
wage law, saying that he "gener-
ally supports" a minimum wage of
$1 per hour.
Romney also made specific sug-
gestions in the fields of county
home rule, annexation, tax allo-
cation, uniform taxes, and non-
resident taxation. For the last,
the governor said that he favors
having non-residents pay at "only
half the rate of residents."
Majority Floor Leader Rep.
Robert E. Waldron (R-Grosse
Pointe) saw the governor's mes-
sage as containing the "known
needs of the state-the address
contained no surprises." Senate
Majority Leader Stanley G. Thay-
er (Ann Arbor) said that the gov-
ernor set forth in his message a
"responsible practical approach
to the problems of the state."
Secretary of State James M. Hare
said that he was pleased that the
governor is concerned with econ-
omy and with the state's traffic
safety problems.
Republicans and Democrats alike
thought that support could be
had for much of Romney's pro-
posals, but that there was sure to
be controversy over such things
as ADC-U and the minimum wage
law.

JAMES M. HARE

UNDER ONE ROOF:

To'TrSuit
On DiJstricts
DETROIT (P)--Trial of a law
suit challenging the apportion-
ment formula of Michigan's
month-old constitution tentative-
ly is set for Jan. 27 before a three-
judge federal court panel.
The judges set the date Mon-
day as five Michigan labor offi-
cials filed a trial' brief. In the
brief, the plaintiffs asked the
judges to prohibit legislative
elections under the constitution's
provisions.
The suit was filed last June 21
by August Scholle, Michigan pres-
ident of the AFL-CIO and other
labor leaders from varied parts
of the state.
The suit charges the apportion-
ment provisions of Michigan's
constitution violate the United
States Constitution's 14th Amend-
ment "by denying equal weight of
the vote cast by each of the state's
citizens," said attorney Theodore
Sachs, who filed the brief.
The new constitution contains
an 80-20 apportionment formula:
It gives 80 per cent weight to
population and 20 per cent to
area in state senatorial districts.
Principal defendant is Secretary
of State James M. Hare, as the
state's chief election officer. Atty.
Gen. Frank Kelley has appointed
-two teams from his office to in-
tervene on each side as interest-
ed parties. Senators Frank Beadle
(R-St. Clair), John Fitzgerald (R-
Grand Ledge) and Paul Younger
(R-Lansing) have intervened.

LANSING-Rep. Neil Staebler
(D-Mich) looms as the most likely
Democratic candidate for the gov-
ernorship while Gov. George Rom-
ney has clouded his future political
plans with a statement that he
would accept a draft for the Re-
publican presidential nomination.
Romney's surprise remarks to
the National Press Club in Wash-
ington Jan. 7, coming after most
experts had counted him out as
a presidential possibility, may al-
ter the governorship nomination
plans for the Republicans should
Romney decide to run for Presi-
dent.
In the Democratic camp, Staeb-
ler is the only announced can-
didate for governor so far. Former
Gov. John B. Swainson has said
he will not seek the nomination as
has former governor and now
Asst. Secretary of State for Afri-
can Affairs G. Mennen Williams.
. Too "Colorless"
Officials of the United Auto-
mobile Workers Union, a powerful
influence in state Democratic cir-
cies, reportedly feel that Staebler
is too "colorless" as candidate to
successfully oppose Romney and
are searching for another can-
didate to support.
Among those Democrats report-
edly interested are Detroit Mayor
Jerome Cavanagh, Atty. Gen.
Frank Kelley, Lt. Gov. T. John
Lesinski, and Highway Commis-
sioner John C. Mackie.
Should Romney decline to run
~for governor again, the four most
likely candidates for the Republi-
can nomination appear to be Sen-
ate Majority Leader Stanley G.
Thayer (R-Ann Arbor), Sen. Wil-
liam G. Milliken (R-Traverse
City), Speaker of the House Al-
lison Green (R-Kingston), and
Rep. Robert P. Griffin (R-Tra-
verse City).
The state election laws may con-
fuse the Republican picture even

if Romney should file for re-
election. Were he to file and sub-
sequently get the GOP nomination
for President, the party's State
Central Committee would appar-
ently choose his replacement.
However if someone in addition to
Romney were to file for the nom-
ination on the chance that Rom-
ney would win the nomination,
that person would automatically
become the Republican candidate
for governor.
In order to prevent .an "out-
sider" from seizing the nomina-
tion by default, the party would
have to have a third "approved
man," probably one of the four
mentioned above, also file. Yet if
Romney then stayed in the gov-
ernorship race the party would
support him and the third man
could be in the embarrassing po-
sition of running far behind the
so-called token candidate.

LANSING MA)-A governmentv
reorganization plan of two Repub-
lican state senators would have
one major department serve as a
catch-all for some 25.different li-
censing and regulatory boards.
But each of these would re-
tain its own powers while an over-
all department head exercised
"administrative and housekeep-
ing" functions only, Sen. Garry
Brown (R-Schoolcraft) said.
Brown said this "under one
roof" concept results in part from
the fact that many of these agen-
cies deal only with limited or
technical fields, and therefore
have no "logical" place in the gov-
ernmental structure.
Varied Boards
Among agencies included in the
proposed "department of licensing
and regulation" are boards which
examine, register or license in
fields of medicine, nursing, ac-
countancy, cosmetology, veterin-
ary medicine, chiropody, pharma-
cy and mortuary science.
Also included would be the state
racing commissioner's office, and
certain regulatory functions of
some major state agencies.
Not included, however, would be
the more important state regula-
tory agencies themselves-such as
the public service, corporation and
securities and liquor control com-
missions, and the department of
insurance.

All of these would become a
part of the department of com-
merce, another of the 15 major
departments outlined by Brown
and Sen. Thomas Schweigert (R-
Petoskey) in their reorganization
plan.
Putting several existing agen-
cies into one department and per-
mitting them to retain their pow-
ers is one of three methods of re-
organization proposed by the sen-
ators.
A second would transfer exist-
ing agencies and their functions
to a major department, but give
the main department head overall
control of the agency, delegating
its powers as a branch of his of-
f ice.
Shift Functions
Under the third, Brown said,
some agencies which now exist
would be abolished and Atheir
functions, powers and duties shift-
ed directly to one or more of the
major departments.
Schweigert, chairman of the
Senate State Affairs Committee
said he expected the bill, when
introduced, to be referred to his
committee, but that he also would
recommend referral of certain
parts to other committees.

Sport coats are the most versatile garment in
a man's wardrobe. It's one of the few garments
equally acceptable for casual or campus dress
up affairs. As such, it needs the special atten-
tion to details necessary to give your garment
a completely correct look for campus wear.
At Greene's, you can be sure 3-button jackets
are properly rolled to the third button . .
(we even have a special retainer to hold the
lapels in place.)' Sleeves are always rolled.
Tweeds and flannels all get an extra soft press
to retain their natural texture. Of course, neces-
sary minor repairing is done on all garments.
Greene's customers expect and get these extras.
If you haven't been using Greene's campus
stores-it's time to change.

NO. CALDWELL, N. J. MAN or a MISS LAUREN
WINS COVETED AFFLERBACH FELLOWSHIP!
A TER what is possibly the world's record rumination over who won a color-naming competition
we have reached a decision. If you can remember that far back, more than a year ago we de-
plored the uninspired names given to colors (light green, dark blue, etc.) as well as the sheer flights
of fancy that conveyed nothing at all (Kumquat Blossom Time, December Showers, Teaneck, etc.).
We asked your assistance in conjuring up new, evocative names for shirt colors, but names that
also had some connection with reality; such as Whizzer White, Well Red, Navel Orange, and so on.
* To make the enterprise more tempting we dangled a Grand Prize of a Traveling Afflerbach
Fellowship: a glamorous weekend at Quakertown, Pa., our HQ (with a free sightseeing trip into
romantic Philadelphia), or a dozen Eagle Shirts. Additionally, there were 9 Stationary Afllerbachs

so close, which is what held us up, that they both win the grand prize. Second prize winners will be
notified by mail. Congratulations, all! * Among the thousands and thousands of splendid names
submitted-some of which we shall surely use-were the following:

* PLEASE DO NOT FILL IN
THIS COUPON!
HE only reason this coupon is here is: we are going to
make this page into an easel card to sit on the counters
of stores that sell Eagle Shirts; and where this space is we
are going to have a pad of entry blanks which people who
* buy shirts (as opposed to people who merely read ads like
this and who at any rate have already had a chance at
I color-naming) may fill out with their color name entries.
Fair is fair. Incidentally, this sort of effort is called "mer-.
chandising", possibly because it is intended to brighten the
* eyes of the merchant who sells Eagle shirts. If you don't
know who that might be in your town (they don't all have
* neon signs announcing same in their windows, you know)
you might write Miss Afflerbach; you may use the coupon
for that if you like.
