the Common Market is another
problem. The traditional ties 'of
trade are a great factor in uniting
the Commonwealth and would be
disrupted by Market-imposed trade
and tariff barriers.
Butler counteracted this argu-
ment in saying "the Common-
wealth is dying anyhow."
Furthermore, participation in
the Market could give Britain
more capital to help develop Af-
rican colonies, he noted.
An issue being discussed now is
the European Free Trade Associa-
tion, the seven member trade as-
sociation to which Britain present-
ly belongs. The neutral nations in
EFTA could not go into the Com-
mon Market association because of
its political implications, Butler
said. There is no solution to this
problem at present.
The argument of increased eco-
nomic growth is the greatest one
in favor of the Common Market
for Britain. The countries in the
Market now have economies grow-
ing twice as fast as Britain's, But-
ler said.

By RONALD WILTON
Three college students agreed
that with a few exceptions dis-
crimination was not a problem
on their campuses at a Michigan
Fair Employment Practices Com-
mission conference for high school
and college journalists held in
Detroit last week.
Student Government Council
President Steven Stockmeyer, '63,
said that in areas directly related
to the University most discrimina-
tion has been eliminated or is on
the way out.
He cited the implementation of
Regents Bylaw, 2-14 as proof of
this.
Council Helps
"The Council is working with
fraternities and sororities to help
them eliminate discrimination.
Another problem is with discrimin-
atory scholarships and this aspect
still needs looking into."
He noted that in the area of
off-campus groups there are re-
lated boards and University groups
working for the elimination of
bias. "The Human Relations Board
is now working on a project of
welcome in an attempt to get rid
of discrimination in off campus
housing."
Not a Problem
Daniel Bohn of the University
of Detroit said that discrimination
"is not a problem on my campus if
one means a continually pressing
problem."
He explained that an attempt to
establish a chapter there for the
National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People had
failed because "the leadership of
the NAACP would not agree to
limit their activities to the cam-
pus."
Not Like South,
Richard Jedwell of Wayne State
University said that "my first im-
pulse is to say no but I must
qualify that to say that bias does
not exist overtly as in the South."
He noted that-the University ap-

plication form had no questions
on it pertaining to race, religion
or nationality, and that it did not
require a picture. "There is no-
thing on the form that could be{
construed to be discriminatory."
No Way To Measure
Turning to covert discrimina-
tion, he said that "it does exist
but to what extent I don't know
and I don't know how to measure
it. I think it can be overcome by
institutions such as the Fair Em-
ployment Practices Commission,
American Civil Liberties Union and
others with educational pro-
grams."
The three students were then
questioned by a panel of reporters.
Offield Dukes of the Michigan
Chronicle asked Bohn if he felt
that the university has a respon-
sibility to undertake programs in
race relations. 'When a minority
segregates itself it is up to the
majority to urge mixing, Dukes
asserted.
Dorms Integrated
"We have a human relations
club on campus where better un-
derstanding can be achieved. The
dormitories are also completely
integrated and foster close as-
sociation," Bohn answered.
Robert Cross, editor of the
Wayne Collegian, asked Jedwell
what specific steps he would ad-
vocate to work against covert dis-
crimination.
Jedwell answered that it would
be "necessary to expose the stu-
dent to the problem and educate,
him."
Civil Rights Struggle
Earlier in the day Lawrence
Gubow, United States attorney for
eastern Michigan, had delivered
an address on the civil rights
struggle in the United States.
He predicted that "it is the
challenge that civil rights problems
presents that will determine if
democracy and the integrity of the
individual survive in this country.
"These problems will confront
our diplomats and leaders when
dealing with foreign affairs and
the United Nations, so this has
become an extremely important
challenge to all of us. We must
accept and meet it if we are to
come out as victors."

An acronym for "light amplifi-
cation by stimulated emission of
radiation," the laser delivers light
intensities millions of times the in-
tensity of light on the sun's sur-
face.
The beam going out through the
telescope is strong enough to be
seen some 20 million miles away.
However, the, return from the
moon-240,000 miles distant-will
be small, because the light is scat-
tered and does not return as a
parallel beam, that it will require
the most sensitive instruments for
its measurements.
Ideal Weather Scarce
"Another thing holding up the
project is the need for an ideal
day to bounce the light off the
moon. Ann Arbor has few good
days each month for the experi-
ment and the moon is in an ideal
position, only a few days each
month," Prof. Franken noted.
Since the reflected light must be
differentiated from the back-
ground light, such as that from
the sun, a very sensitive light de-
tector and many experiments are
needed. Through statistical analy-
sis, the amount of reflected light
can be determined.
"From the dome, you can see a
needle of red light, which seems
to get narrower in the distance,
piercing space. The beam doesn't
actually converge on a point, be-
cause it spreads so little, some-
thing like six inches-per mile, at
a distance the beam seems to come
to a point," Prof. Franken said.
Not a Weapon
Prof.-Franken said that using
the laser as a weapon is now im-
possible, though in the future it
may be developed into one. Foc-
used beams of light from lasers
have- been used to cut through
razor blades.
