_EDITOW'S NOTE: This is the first
in a four-part series on the racial
climate in Michigan as the summer
of 1966 draws near.
By GENE SCHROEDER
Associated Press Writer
As summer of 1966 approaches,
Michigan's civil rights picture
provides a study in contrasts -
brotherhood and bigotry, harmony
and hatred, tranquility and terror.
U Is Detroit or any other Michigan
community a "racial tinderbox,"
as one national civil rights leader
declared recently?
The answer seems to lie be-
tween the two extremes of those
who say some cities are due for a
violent racial explosion and others

who insist there are no real prob-
lems.
An Associated Press survey of
the state's major communities
paints a crazy-quilt pattern of the
racial scene.
There is evidence of Ku Klux
Klan activity on the one hand
and Black Muslim maneuvering on
the other.
There are disagreements among
Negro leaders in some cities and
controversy among white authori-
ties in others.
. Minor racial flareups have hit
Detroit, Lansing, Jackson, Mount
Clemens, Kalamazoo and other
Michigan communities in recent
years. But none touched off the

type of wild violence that swept
through Harlem, Rochester, N.Y.,
Philadelphia and the Watts area
of Los Angeles.
Observers in most cities feel
progress is being made in elimi-
nating these ingredients which us-
ually are at the root of major
disturbances-job discrimination,
de facto school segregation, con-
troversial law enforcement and
"ghetto" housing.
Michigan's Civil Rights Commis-
sion, the only constitutionally
created such body in the nation,
is being given much of the credit
for the work done in these fields.
But the agency has not escaped
criticism for what some feel is

interference in local problems.
The overall picture in the state
was described as grim recently by
Burton Gordin, executive director
of the commission.
However, compared to other
states, he added, Michigan offers
the "best opportunity in the na-
tion today to achieve rapid and
meaningful 'civil results'.''
Damon Keith, commission co-
chairman, says Michigan doesn't
compare with Mississippi or Ala-
bama in terms of brutality, mur-
der or the actions of policemen,
courts or juries.
"But we must also face the fact
that there are patterns of discrim-
inatory behavior that do exist in

this state and must be faced up
to."
In employment, he says, "per-
haps you cannot find as many Ne-
gro college graduates working as
janitors or elevator operators as
you could 20 years ago.
"But clearly there are still
scenes of businesses, industrial
units and unions that use racist
policies in hiring and upgrading.
They may not call it that, they
may not even have given it much
thought. But it still is clearly ra-
cist ...
"For example, there are dozens
of restaurants in this state where
you will notice, if you are sensi-

tive to the fact, that all the
waitresses are white, and all the
busgirls are Negro."
Housing was described as anoth-
er crucial area of concern.
"There are few, if any, commu-
nities in Michigan," says Keith,
"where a nonwhite citizen can
simply pick a realtor at random,
go to his office, say that he is
seeking, for example, a $15,000
house with two or three bedrooms,
and expect that he will be shown
all the homes so listed in every
part of the city."
Michigan's new constitution
guarantees every citizen an equal
opportunity to employment, edu-

cation, public accommodations,
housing and law enforcement.
"Yet," says John Feikens, the
commission's other cochairman,
"not only has racial inequality
persisted, but in some areas it
appears to have increased."
Recent studies, Feikens explains,
show the Negro community is even
more segregated in housing than
it was 30 years ago, and although
the income of Negroes has risen
in the past decade, the actual dol-
lar gap between the income of Ne-
groes and whites has widened.
In remarks at a conference call-
ed to discuss unfinished civil rights
business in Michigan, Dr. Alvin

Rose of Wayne State University
said there is a ferment of dis-
content in the Negro community.
But it is in no way a ferment
of revolution, said Rose, a Negro.
"Unlike all other Americans,"
he declared, "the only nation
which Negroes in America know is
America. We were totally cut off
from our past in the textbooks
which you wrote.
"We have learned to love Amer-
ica deeply.
"We sincerely believe - as you
have taught us to believe-that all
men are created equal."

MADISON, WIS. W')-STUDENT leaders voted last night to
order University of Wisconsin officials to stop making classroom
grades available to draft boards.
The demand by the university's Student Senate came only
an hour after campus protestors had jeered a U.S. State Depart-j
ment team trying to explain American policy in Viet Nam. The
students shouted "Liars!" at the government officials and
staged a mass walkout.
A band of students remained entrenched for the second night
at the university's administration building. They occupied the
building Monday to dramatize protests against draft policies.
A PROPOSAL TO CREATE a Committee to Improve Higher
Education in Michigan has been sent .to Gov. George Romney,
Charles Orlebke, the governor's educational consultant, and Ira1
Polley, State Superintendent of Public Instruction. The proposal
was drawn up by Paul Gernant, a teaching fellow who resigned
Monday as the economics department's representative to the
Teaching Fellows Organization.
Gernant suggested the committee .should strive to increase
appropriations to state universities and colleges, formulate a
4 long-range plan to build more junior colleges, support a state
income tax and fiscal reform, and urge Gov. Romney to appoint
a permanent Commission on Higher Education to study the
current and future needs of higher education in the state.
Gernant contended that the Legislature has refused "to rec-
ognize the needs of graduate education."

Others built wooden pyres at

On Possibilities of
Tuition Fee Hikes
Special To The Daly
By MARTHA WOLFGANG
and MARK LEVIN
LANSING - In hearings before
the House Ways and Means Com-
mittee yesterday, University offi-
cials requested a $4 million in-
crease over the Senate version of
the University appropijatons bill.
Part of this is to help raise teach-
ers' salaries by an average of 8
per cent.
The Senate bill called for $58
million in state funds. This figure
is $1 million above the Governor's
recommendation, but still substan-
tially below the original Univer-
sity proposal of $65 million.
In response to questioning by
Rep. Jack Faxon (D-Det.), a critic
of the University's last tuition
hike, Vice-President for Academic
Affairs Allan Smith denied that
that the University has considered
raising tuition as a means of rais-
ing necessary funds if the final
appropriation falls below the
amount requested.
Other Alternatives
Smith said there were alterna-
tive actions other than a tuition
hike the University could take, if
forced to, by the appropriation of
insufficient state funds. He indi-
cated the University could increase
the student-teacher ratio, reduce
necessary salary increases, or re-
duce purchases of new equipment.
Smith told the committee that
there was "a gray area where the
University was not sure at what
point it would be forced to raise
fees."
Executive Vice-President Marv-
in Niehuss commented that the
University would be most reluc-
tant to raise tuition fees again.
Faxon, who is chairman of the
subcommittee on higher education
appropriations, accused the Uni-
versity of shifting the blame to
the legislature for raises in tuition
in the past.
Faxon recommended to Univer-
sity officials that a determination
of the level of enrollment be made
a year ahead of time so as to allow
the University greater flexibility
in devising alternate methods of
cutting expenditures. He indicated
that the University might consider
setting a ceiling on University
enrollment instead of continually
enlarging the student body.
Smith replied, "The needs of the
nation and state cannot be met
with maximum enrollment limi-
tations enforced by either legisla-
tors or a state board."
Lansing sources indicate that
hopes for $1 million appropria-
tion for the Center for Research
on Learning and Teaching were
dim and that the University could
not count on setting up the pro-
posed state-wide computer net-
wor kthis year. Sources further
indicate that the committee will
probably give the University a

x CONCERT PLANNED:

Summer Tutorial Pr

By BETSY TURNER
Kids could be seen running,
laughing and asking questions. Tu-
tors were playing ball, learning
how to dance, and going on nature
hikes. The event was the first
meeting of the summer for tutors
and tutees who are participating
in the Tutorial and Cultural Re-
lations project. The location was
Willow Run Village.
The summer program is consid-
erably more limited than the pro-
gram conducted during the reg-
ular school year. "Tutors who
have worked in the program pre-
viously and are in Ann Arbor
during the summer are continuing
to tutor. We are also orienting a
small group of new tutors," com-
mented Linda Johnson, '69, stu-

MOSCOW (I) - Romania has
suggested that Warsaw Pact na-
tions give unanimous approval for
any military action by a member
anywhere in the world, Romanian
sources said yesterday. This would
give Romania - and each other
signer of the pact-a veto over
Soviet military moves.
The sources reported this was
the main point in several Roman-
ian suggestions for revision of the
Soviet-led military alliance agree-
ment in Eastern Europe. They said
the suggestions are circulating

intended to extend to actions out-
side Eastern Europe since mem-
bers might be required to come to
each other's support in case of
trouble elsewhere.
They cited the Cuban missile
crisi sin 1962 when the Russians
placed rockets in Cuba, then had
to withdraw them under U.S. pres-

Cuba should have had pact
