LXXVI, No. 33S ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SATURDAY, JUNE 18, 1966 SEVEN CENTS FOUR PAGES ublic Act 124: Dispute Creates a Space Problem By MARTHA WOLFGANG "The Literary College is bound to suffer from the lack of space on the University campus the most," a University official re- cently explained. He was refering to the lack of new buildings being planned at the University, as a result of the squabble between the University's Regents and the state legislature over Act 124. Dean William Haber of the Literary College expressed con- cern over the hold up of new buildings. He said, "A long delay can adversly affect the Literary College's needs for general class and office space." He warned that we've used up whatever slack "re- mained" in the utilization of class and office space. Five out of the seven projects whose plans are being affected because of the differences over Public Act 124 are in the Literary College. The state legislature recently re- newed the provisions of P.A. 124 for another year. The legislature feels more control must be estab- lished over the tremendous amounts of money which go to the state universities building projects. The University's Regents have decided not to comply with the state legislature in this case, be- cause they regard it as a violation of their constitutional autonomy. Many of the planned building projects of the University have been delayed as a result. John J. McKevitt, assistant to Vice-President for Business and Finance Wilbur J. Pierpont, ex- plained that not all the delay in building is a result of the dif- ferences between the University's Regents and the state legislature. There is no way of telling whether the state legislature would have withheld planning funds for some University buildings if such a dif- ference of opinion had not oc- cured. There are seven projects, a new Modern Language building, Archi- tecture building, heating plant ex- pansion, General Library renova- tions, Science building, Residence College, and a Mathematics and Computer Center, currently affect- ed by the difference over Public Act 124. All had received authorize'ions for preliminary plans or studies which indicate site, scale, and slight estimations of costs before the passage of the act. But in only one case, the extension of the Heating Plant, has the state legis- lature made an appropriation for completed plans under the new act. As a result the University is bound to suffer in projected space requirements, enrollment require- ments, and expected growth pat- terns. The state legislature's attempt to control the University's build- ing projects is not a novel occur- ence. The state Controller's office has always had some degree of control. The University has pre- viously submitted its preliminary plans to the Controller. He would examine estimated cost and char- acteristics of the project, and give it the required approval. The state legislature, upon the approval would then make an appropriation for complete plans to the University. The Controller was first given planning authority in 1963, when planning funds were given direct- ly to his office, rather than the University. He then had the dis- cretion as to whether he would release planning money to the University or to the Controller's office which had the power to decide the planning agent for the University. The Controller's office had given the money directly to the University and thus no signifi- cant changes in procedure were made. The only difference under the new provision was that there were more frequent informational exchanges and verifications be- tween the University and the Con- troller's office, McKevitt ex- plained. With the 1965 act, the legisla- ture sends all its appropriations to the Controller's office to com- plete the plans. This is part of an attempt by a new state legislature to increase its control over the state colleges and universities. The legislature has given many indications of its desire to increase its control over the University. They have required more detailed budget hearings on the Univer- sity's allotment from the state's General Fund. Theyrreceived a clearer picture of where and why money was to be'spent as a result. The legislature also attempted to control University's freedom to change tuition rates which subse- quently failed. The office of the state Con- troller could, under the present plan, exercise power over the fu- ture development of the Univer- sity. By not allowing plans to be drawn for a project, or portion of it, it could limit development of certain areas of the University. This is the major complaint of the University's Regents. U.S. Agency Reveals New 4 1 ir igall i1y L.S.D. Probe NEWS WIRE Drug Administration_ Officials To Exanine College Campuses A special corps of undercover agents is going into action on college campuses and elsewhere to combat the illicit manufacture,! sale and use of the mind-expand- ing drug LSD, the Food and Drug Administration revealed this week. FDA Commissioner Dr. James L. Goddard said LSD has been under intensive investigation by medical researchers since it was discovered by accident in 1943, and no legitimate medical use has ever been found for it. Asked what he thought of the widely publicized claim that LSD "expands" the mind and makes possible a sort of mystical spiritual experience, Goddard snapped "Pure bunk." "It's an extremely dangerous drug than can precipitate serious psychiatric illness or even suicide." he added. Goddard said no one really knows how widespread the current LSD fad is. "You hear loose talk about 30 per cent of college stu- dents using LSD, but I know of no reliable data on the extent of usage," he said. "That's one of the things we're trying to find out now." Goddard said the FDA, together, with the National Institute of Mental Health, would attempt to discover how widespread abuse of LSD has become. "Along with this will be an educational effort aimed at col- lege students and others who seem to be particularly at risk, to try l to acquaint them with the dan-I gers and to counteract this dan- gerous publicity that others have put forth advocating the use of' the drug for mystical experience," Goddard said. He revealed that special inves- tigators are being trained at the University of California in Ber- keley. "We have 60 men working out there now being trained as under-! cover investigators. We have grad- uated two previous classes and there will be more brought into the program after July 1. Two states-California and Ne-t vada-have already passed laws- banning the manufacture, sale' and use of LSD and have imposed severe penalties on violators. The Michigan Legislature also has a bill pending final action next week which would make possession or sale of the drug a felony. - _. STUDENTS FOR A DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY'S National Congress yesterday discussed internal matters and its national publications in the first day of a three-day session here. The group is expected to take stands on the draft and community organization in meetings today in the Multipurpose Room of the UGLI. G. MENNEN WILLIAMS, DEMOCRATIC candidate for U.S. senator, will speak in Aud. A of Angell Hall at 8:15 p.m. Sunday. After his speed, he will be questioned by a panel consisting of Douglas Ross, James R Walter, Harold L. Oberbach and Mar- shall Sahlins. The audience will be permitted to ask questions following the panel questioning. Tomorrow, Williams' opponent in the August primary, Mayor Jerome Cavanagh of Detroit, will take part in the 25th anni- versary celebration of UAW Local 849 of the Ford Motor Co. in Ypsilanti. THE U.S. OFFICE OF EDUCATION has awarded grants totalling $252,390 under the National Defense Education Act to help support area study centers at the University. The grants are on a matching fund basis, with the University putting in an equal amount. LANSING-THE STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION yesterday approved allocation of $289,756 in federal funds to 12 Michigan colleges and universities to conduct programs aimed at solving community problems. The funds are available under a section of the Higher Education Act of 1965 to support community serv- ice and continuing education. * *, * 4* THE STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION urged the Legislature recently to approve tuition grants for students attending private colleges and universities in Michigan. The estimated $3.3 million plan earlier this week drew fire from The Detroit Council of Churches and The Jewish Com- munity Council of Metropolitan Detroit, and support from the Michigan Association of Private Colleges. The Detroit church groups urged Gov. George Romney to veto the tuition-grant plan, contending it violated the concept of church-state separation. The resolution by the Board of Education was unanimous. It also called on the Legislature to "properly fund" the program. The proposal now is in a conference committee for resolution of differences between House and Senate versions. It would cover an estimated 8,300 students in the first year. * * * * ABOUT THE SAME PERCENTAGE of those registering for the military draft are being classified now as conscientious ob- jectors as during the Korean conflict and World War II, Selective Service officials said yesterday. The latest figures on convictions of draft-dodging charges showed 242 during the year which ended June 30, 1965. This compared to 202 in the previous year, 266 for the 1962-63 year, 290 in 1954-55 and a peak of 425 in 1953-54, the windup of Korea. GOV. GEORGE ROMNEY said last night that any action to establish a new medical college in Michigan before completion of a State Board of Education study would be unwise. "No one has the right individually to make such a major decision based either upon the ambitions of a single institution or the power and influence of lobbyists in Lansing," he said. The Legislature is considering a bill that would establish a State Osteopathic College Authority and, lawmakers say, commit the state to support the proposed osteopathic college at Pontiac. -Associated Press NEGROES ON THE MEREDITH MARCH through Mississippi walk past a heckler's sign that claims to picture Martin Luther King at a Communist school. The marchers have been faced with more heckling as they get farther south. EARLY SUCCESS: Business Graduate Is in Demand If Horatio Alger were alive to- day, he'd be green with envy of the business school graduate. Alger, of course, went from rags to riches in dozens of late 19th century novels. A. S. Hann, director of place- ment for the University of Mich- igan's Graduate School of Busi- ness Administration, points out that while today's business school students may not start job hunt- ing in rags, by Alger's standards they come close to being "rich" after their first month at work. This spring, according to Hann, starting salary offers to candi- dates for the master of business administration degree at Michigan ranged above $1000 a month. The median starting salary was $750- a 36 per cent increase over the $550 figure of five years ago, and a 7 per cent hike over last year's $700. Higher starting salaries are a reflection of stepped-up recruit- ment of students. During the past academic year 353 companies scheduled 526 visits through the University business school's place- ment program. The number of employer visits is up to 41 per cent over 1961 (372) and 13 per cent over 1965 (465).

A sound truck played a Klu Klux Klan song, "Go On North, Nigger, If You Don't Like Our Southern Ways." Children waved Confederate flags as the- civil rights marchers camesthrough. Police Stop Cars Last night police reportedly stopped carloads of whites armed with rifles within one block, the marchers' tents. Today a policeman prevented a farmer from shooting at one of the cars from the march. News- men found a carton containing a poisonous cotton mouth among their gear. James H. Meredith, wounded during a voter registration march in Mississippi on June 6, said yes- terday that he would resume that march next Wednesday "whether I am strong enough or not," the AP reported. Out of Jail Stokey Carmichael of SNCC is out of jail on a $100 bail along with Cordell Reagen, a fellow SNCC worker, after their arrest two days ago for trespassing. They had been held for seven hours after trying to erect a tent in the school yard without authorization from the local authorities. Upon return to the march Car- michael went back to the camp- site after release and spoke at a rally gathered there. He said that "every county courthouse in Mis- sissippi should be burned to get rid of the fifth." He added that "we are in the majority here but everybody owns our neighborhood except us. The only way we can get justice is to have a black sheriff. We want black power!" He turned this into a chant and the crowd of approximately 700 joined in. Guard Reduced Following the rally Mississippi Gov. Paul Johnson announced that he was cutting the march's police guard from 20 patrolmen to four. He said that "we are not going to be in a position of wet nursing a group of showmen." However, regardless of this an- nouncement, there was heavy po- lice protection for the more than 400 in the march. The march continued yesterday from where it left off seven miles north of Greenwood. Carmichael and Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, the Southern Christian Leader- ship Conference leader, led the march today as CORE executive Floyd McKissick left the march to go to New York. What Is Power?

The Soviet Union has propos- ed that such a treaty be consid- ered in the General Assembly ses- sion starting Sept. 20, but a dele- gation spokesman told correspond- ents, "We do not exclude the possibility of discussing this mat- ter in the legal subcommittee." Both the Soviet and U. S. dele- gations Thursday handed the United Nations proposed treaties to reserve celestial bodies for peaceful uses and keep them free DETROIT 1P)-Detroit's union- ized public school teachers Thurs- day authorized their leaders to call a strike if necessary to back up their contract demands. Mary Ellen Riordan, president of the 6,000-member Detroit Fed- eration of Teachers, said strike authorization was approved by a 7-1 margin. The federation, an AFL-CIO af- filiate, is sole bargaining repre- sentative for the city's 10,000 teachers. Mrs. Riordan said only DFT members were eligible to vote. She said teachers also indicated by a 15-1 margin they would not cross picket lines if a strike is' called. The teachers' current contract, which expiresaJune 30, contains a no-strike clause. Mrs. Riordan said: "As long as the Board of Education continues to negotiate, we will not break out contract." The city's public schools close for the summer next Wednesday. "The threat of increased class size, which makes us baby sitters 200 days, 20 more than state law requires. Brownell's office estimates the teachers' salary requests would cost $15 million a year. It also is estimated that reducing each class by one pupil would cost $1.25 million annually. Michigan has seen several teacher strikes this year and last, including one in the Detroit su- burb of Ecorse which this week resulted in the firing of 194 teach- ers. Union officials there current- ly are considering a court appeal. Talks between the.Detroit teach- ers and the school board resumed Friday. In Lansing, representatives of the Michigan Association of School Boards, the federation and the Michigan Education Associa- tion met with Gov. George Rom- ney. The meeting-the second since the spring rash of strikes-ended with the agreement that the La- bor Mediation Board will keep Romney informed throughout the summer on potential trouble when classes resumed in September.
