rRegents Request Budget Hike Strengthens U'L S"1n l"_ , Tunu_ ibrary Board Asks Record $14.2 Million To Launch Expansion Program By LAURENCE KIRSHBAUM The Regents have submitted their annual request to Lansing for state building funds. Their record bid of $14.2 millionseeks to launch, 5r starting ,next year, a five-year program of construction and remodel- ling which would eventually cost the state $102 million. The program aims to expand literary and architecture college facilities, erect medical and dental school structures and continue re- novation of the University's By JEFFREY GOODMAN A "handsome budget increase" of almost $585,000 has given the University Library a much-needed transfusion. The increased funds in this year's legislative appropriation will allow "considerable improvements" in salary levels, staff size and book acquisitions, University Library Director Frederick H. Wagman said. "Our situation is still a long way from where we want it to be, but we have taken a great step forward." The "where we want to be" referred to earlier projections the library had made of its needs for 1968 and 1975. "We will. need several more steps of this dimension if we are to meet future de- mands as the University grows," Wagman said. 36,000 by 1968 The projections-which Wagman labelled "conservative"-- were made last spring on the basis of an anticipated 36,000 stu- - t, L, t. ., ± i~r ln 7'w~o av4t :> >n4 n . 1 An- I ., ' A... spring, the library was second only to faculty salary increases. When the computations were finished, the library's budget totalled over $2.75 million. Of the increase over last year, approxi- mately 42 per cent goes for new staff, 30 per cent for book acqui- sition, 20 per cent for salary increases and eight per cent for general operating expenses, Wagman said. Included in the University Library system are most libraries on campus plus the Dearborn Center library, whose budget was recently brought under the -system. The law, business adminis- tration,; Flint and Clements libraries and the Michigan Historical Collections are governed separately., In the area of staff, about 45 salaried positions have been added throughout the library. These include ,both professional and clerical staff in such areas as book purchasing, cataloguing, circulation, reference and administration. Also added are staff members in various positions at many of the library's branch units. Pay Rates Up These changes, plus some salary increases, have considerably boosted pay rates for almost all personnel. This is an important step, Wagman said, since one of the chief reasons for the recent staff losses was uncompetitive pay. Wagman noted that further personnel problems will almost certainly arise when the University opens its first summer term next May. "Undoubtedly we wvill have to add new people, though handling increased summer loads will be primarily'a matter of staggering vacations so that too many members aren't gone at the same time," he said. In the area of book acquisitions, Wagman said this year's budget increases are "a' real shot in the arm." Student Loan Bill P Iending B In Congress By JUDITH WARREN An expansion and extension of the nation's largest student loan program is now pending before Congress. If passed, the University may receive more than $700 thou- sand ,for loans. The original National Defense Act provides $135 million, for stu- dent loans. This .bill awaits the signature of President Lyndon B. Johnson. Both houses of Congress have now passed expansions of the original act but in different forms.. A conference committee is now being formed to carve out a com- promise. Both versions of the bill in- crease the funds available from $135 million to $163.3 million. They also eliminate !the original $800 thousand ceiling available to each institution. This would mean that the University could apply for more than $700 thousand to pro- vide more loans. ''It is quite, probable that the limit will be raised. We certainly need the money, as do all big schools," Walter B. Rea, Univer- sity director of financial aids, said. : saThe new bill also extends the original act for an additional two years beyond its expiration date of June 30, .1965. We Want ..,.

However: reports ' said trophies were scarce. Both forms of the bill eliminate the provision which gives prefer- ence to students showing a super- for academic record in science, mathematics, ,engineering. and a modern foreign language. But both still give preference to those students who wish to teach in elementary and secondary schools. Both bills retain provisions to increase the individual loan limit for graduate and professional stu- dents from $1000 to $2,500 per year. Under this provision, the maximum each student will re- ceive for his years spent in under- graduate and graduate study is $10,000 Both bills retain the present $1000 a year loan to undergraduate students with a maximum for the undergraduate period of $5000.- However, there are major dif- ferences in the two bills. The Sen- ate version allows funds for stu- dents in business colleges while the House version does not. The House bill provides funds for stu- dents in nursing programs.

Wagman commented that the library will now be 'able to increase its allocations to some 23 different units. Precisely how many books will be added to the existing collec- tions is impossible to predict, he said, since purchases depend heavily on the amount of publishing in any year, book prices and demand from within the University. He did point uat,. however, that the library (including the Dearborn, and business administration units) .grew by 111,000 volumes last year. He felt confident that this record would at least be equalled this year. Furthermore, he was more sure than he had been last spring that staff additions could keep pace with book purchases. Every new volume requires a certain increment in staff size because of the numerous service operations which must be performed to place and maintain a book in circulation, Wagman explained. One such operation-cataloguing-has already been improved under the new budget: now the library has a system for tempor- arily cataloguing the large number of books it has not yet had time to catalogue permanently, he explained. Some alleviation of the library's space needs is also proceeding this year, though more slowly and with less help from the budget increase. At present, the University is preparing. to ask the federal government for one-third of the cost of the $3.5 million General Library addition. The University is also asking the Legislature for $500,000 to plan and begin renovations in the General Library.

From Keweenah Site Raeial Views1 I-fl, Collegiate Press Service CHICAGO-Roy Wilkins, exec- utive secretary of the National As- sociation for the Advancement of Colored People, blasted Republican presidential nominee Sen. Barry Goldwater last night, saying his campaign has "out-and-out tones of race." Wilkins spoke before the 60th annual American Political Science convention, attended by over 2,- 000 professors and students, in- cluding several from the Univer- sity. "Just as the Negro, with the help of federal legislation and court action, is slowly winning the vote in the South, a Republi- can nominee appears who pledges that there will be no such federal liberation if he is elected," Wilkins said. , Wilkins charged the Goldwater wing of the Republican party "has moved down to the murky level o. racial ignorance and racial fears, inhabited and glorified by the ped- dlers of hatred based upon skin color. "it is a fair deduction that Mr. Goldwater believes anti - Negro feelings will elect him president next November. In labeling them 'subtle impulses,' he is recognizing and dignifying such prejudices and applauding their retention in the minds and hearts of voters." The Negro believes, Wilkins as- serted, that Goldwater's campaign treats the racial issue in the same manner as the late Sen. Theodore Bilbo of Mississippi, "only with less crude language."

The statement would be published in the IQC Newsletter by Oct. 1. The motion proposed by West Quadrangle President Leonard Weinstein, '65, asked that the fol- lowing information be included in the explanation :_ 1) A breakdown showing where "every penny" of the total room and board payments goes; 2) "Where every penny" of the individual $34 increase went; 3) Why the increase was nec- essary; 4). Why the IQC president was .not consulted before the increase went into effect; 5) Why the rates were increased during the summer; 6) Why returning dorm residents 'were not informed of a possible I room and board. increase before signing their :contracts. Understanding 1"ecessary "We feel it is important for each resident to understand exactly why the increase was made," Weinstein commented. "Moreover, IQC would like to have all pertinent infor- mation at hand to evaluate and, if necessary, protest the decision to raise room and board rates."

We are the true nationalists." With this argument, the Communist Viet Cong has won the support of large segments of South Viet Nam's populace, one of that nation's student leaders said yesterday.: Dao Duy, president of the Vietnamese Catholic Students' Fed- = eration, is in Ann Arbor on a State Department travel ,grant. In an interview he detailed how the Viet Cong-or the' National Liberation Front, as it calls itself-has gained the sympathy of his countrymen. Stoaiy Begins in 1954 - Th'm om.ginn nf the Viet story begins in 1954, after a. amounted to a threat to cut off sorely-needed U.S. aid if Diem were not placed in charge, Dao Duy added.- In his, first three years, Diem took "the first steps" toward establishing a democracy, but later it became apparent that the forms he had set up were intended to mask a dictatorship, Dao Duy said. "Unfortunately, Eisenhower was president of the U.S. at the time. As a military man, he looked at Viet Nam as a strategic territory against the Communist world," he continued. Hence the U.S. aid to Viet Nam consisted mostly of military supplies. Diem's Star Dimmed Diem's government became less and less popular. "The people were never against Diem himself. ,He had some virtu; he was honest and uncorruptible. We liked this. But he always followed the advice of his staff, and his staff was very bad," Dao Duy said.
