Already, there has been evi-
dence of alarm. Britain, which
has supported U.S. policy in Viet
Nam, was quick to announce it
could not support an extension
of the war to the bombing of
Hanoi and Haiphong.
News of the bombings made
huge headlines throughout Europe
but there was no immediate of-
ficial or editorial comment. In
New Delhi, Indian Foreign Min-
ister Swaran Singh expressed
"deep concern and distress" over,
the attacks.
As for the European Commun-
ist bloc and the Soviet Union,
they appear to fear some sort of
showdown will develop from U.S.
actions which would put them in
a most uncomfortable spot. The
developments come at a time when
there had been cautious ap-
proaches between the United
States and Soviet bloc nations.
Direct attacks on Hanoi . and
Haiphong and the possibility of
interdicting shipping into North
Viet Nam could impel Moscow and
its bloc to rally strongly behind
a "fraternal" nation under fire.
This, in turn, could sacrifice what-
ever advantages there may have
been to the Western world in the
many palpable divisions among
Communist countries.
The actions might move the
Chinese, too, to some sort of re-
sponse. Haiphong - the name
means "sea fortress"-is less than
100 miles from China's Kwanksi
Province. The port looks out east-
ward toward the highly sensitive
Red Chinese military zones in the
Luichow peninsula and big Hainai
Island.

Special To The Daily
WASHINGTON-Senator Philip
A. Hart (D-Mich) said yesterday
that the decision to bomb the
dock area of Haiphong and areas
near Hanoi was "really a tactical
decision (about which) only a
handful of people have the infor-
mation to make a judgment."
In military terms, he added, "I
can't say it's a major departure
from what we've been doing, pro-,
vided we're choosing our targets
in a controlled manner.
'I don't know if it was correct
to bomb Hanoi and Haiphong, and
I'm sure the President doesn't
know either. All we can say is
that we'll know someday," Hart
said,
"It boils down to vwhether t he
military advantages of the step-
ped-up bombing are greater than
the political disadvantages. of
such an escalation. the attitude
the Red Chinese, the North Viet-
namese and the Russians will take,
the attitude the rest of the world
will take, and so on," he declared.
"Although it's impolitic to say
so," Hart commented, "I suspect
that the rest of the world's atti-
tude will depend largely on
whether we succeed at our objec-
tive rather than how crudely we,
do so."
Hart spoke late yesterday after-
noon to a group of university stu-
dents working here as summer in-
terns in congressional and execu-
tive branch offices.
"I'm not an expert on Viet
Nam," the senator added, "al-
though some days in the Senate
I think I'm surrounded by them.
I have a hunch, though, that x. e
would be better off today if w e
had stayed out of Viet Nam.
"But that's largely a 'so-what'
attitude a little like the man on'
the runaway horse," Hart con-
tinued. "It's not constructive to
tell him how foolish he was to get
on. The constructive suggestion is
to tell him how to get off-and
that's much more difficult."

money coming into the Treasury. If the requests come in to-

A MICHIGAN LABOR MEDIATION BOARD trial examiner
ruled Tuesday that teachers have a right to bargin for more than
wages, hours and qualifications for employment, according to the
Associated Press.
Robert Pisarski, the board's chief trial examiner, also ruled
that the suburban North Dearborn Heights School District vio-
lated state law nine times in contract negotiations that triggered
a five-day teachers' strike June 2.
It is the mediation board's first unfair labor practices ruling
since the Michigan Public Employment Act was amended in 1965.
Pisarski held evaluation of curriculum, scheduling of classes,
determination of class sizes. selection of textbooks and ratings of
teachers are negotiable items.
'lE STAT'IE BOARD OF EIUCUATION has recommended
federal grants totaling $652,638 for 24 Michigan colleges and
universities for purchase of laboratory, closed-circuit television
and other special equipment and materials.
The University will receive $29,271 for laboratory and other
special equipment.
The grant reconmmendations were made to the U.S. Office of
Education under provisions of the Higher Education Act of 1965.

Brennan Reiterates
Board's Opposition
To Branch Operations
By PAT O'DONOHUE
The State Board of Education
yesterday approved expanding the
Sault Ste. Marie branch of Mich-
igan Technological University,
which presently offers only the
first three undergraduate years, to
a four-year degree-granting in-
stitution.
The board also approved a pro-
gram .leading to independence of
the branch within a six year per-
iod. Michigan Technological Uni-
versity is expected to ask the state
Legislature for authorization and
funds towards an autonomous
Sault branch.
Representatives of the univer-
sity said they hope that the auto-
nomy can be granted osmetime be-
tween 1968 and 1972. This action
would bring to 12 the number of
four-year state-supported insti-
tutions of higher learning.
The board's decision on the
Sault branch was based on an ad-
visory committee recommendation
made last October that the branch
be expanded beginning this fall.
Thomas J. Brennan, board pres-
ident, said that one consideration
in the Sault decision was the fact
that the board has "clearly stated
its opposition to additional uni-
versity branches and its desire
that those which do exist should
become autonomous in the near
future."
Thisstatement could very easily
have an effect on the University's
Flint branch. The question of dis-
putes over whether the Flint
branch should remain under Uni-
versity administration or be grant-
ed autonomy was not raised. How-
ever, the Sault decision may pre-
sage a potential board policy to
convert all branches of the present
state colleges and universities to
autonomous units
OFFICE CONSTRUCTION BEGINS
This is the start of a six-floor administrative office building rising on Maynard Street on the south side of the Student Activities Bldg.
The 65,000-square-foot building will house the presidential and vice-presidential offices when the present Administration Bldg. is turn-
ed over to the literary college. The move is part of an effort to remove administrative offices from the central campus area.

Seeking to suggest ways in which'

the original report included the
following recommendations:
--establishment of a Student-
Faculty Committee on Academic
Rights and Responsibilities of Stu-
dents to provide a channel to the
faculty and administration;
-appointment of a member
from the senior faculty as a "high
prestige official" with the title
of "Ombudsman." His duties would
be to receive requests, complaints,
and grievances of students and to
assist in "accomplishing the ex-
peditious settlement ofh .their

--continued study of classroom

ment";
-streamlining of the student
judiciary and creation of a new
student-faculty "supreme court"
to serve as an appeal body under
the vice-president for student af-
fairs. This new court would have
original jurisdiction in cases of
cheating, cases referred to it by
the dean of students, and in cases
of re-admission to the university;
-that the university not author-

and distribution instead lying with
the sponsoring agency, groups,
organization, or individual," and
-provision of guidelines for
rulemakers in the areas of aca-
demic freedom, privacy of student
records, aind student conduct.
