Aaron J. Bacusin, deputy for procurement management in the Air Force, represented the depart- ment at a Senate Commerce sub- committee hearing to consider a bill aimed at promoting quality and price stabilization and re- straining unfair methods of dis- tribution. The measure provides for en- forcement of a brand-name pro- ducer's suggested prices for his product. "This bill will be in defiance of the principles that Congress has enunciated in its anti-trust leg- islation and legislation requiring competitive purchases by govern- ment agencies," Bacusin said. "The Defense Department, being the largest consumer in the United States is deeply concerned with inflationary and anti-competitive potential in the bill and opposes its enactment," Bacusin said. He claimed government exemp- tion from the bill would be inef- fectual because manufacturer con- trol over government distributors would put the government in a disadvaintageous position as to control. Further, any fair trade or fixed price system invites hori- zontal price fixing by manufac- turers at each succeeding level, which defeats competition." The bill "could empower the manufacturer to control his dis- tributors, at all levels, through revocation of the right to resell the product. Thus, the distributor would probably deal with the gov- ernment as he was instructed." MORE CONSUMER ITEMS-Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrush- chev told the Central Committee of the Communist Party yester- day that the need for deprivation in order to build heavy industry had come to an end. He announced plans for developing a new industrial program aimed at producing more consumer goods. IMPLEMENTATION: To View Ed (EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the third in a four-part series on the implementation of the new Michi- gan Constitution) By LAURENCE KIRSHBAUM I I, Iucation Bills The packet of 12 bills bearing the higher education legislation has compactly incorporated the new education section's objective to combine institutional autonomy with devices for coordination. Expedient passage of a flock of higher education bills is expected to occur in both houses of the Legislature Wednesday according to such top lawmakers as the Senate floor leader and Education Committee Chairman William G. Milliken (R-Traverse City). These bills are designed to put into the law books the different provisions on higher education contained within the education article of the new constitution taking effect Jan. 1. - .. .. =,i Buy one double meat Bfimpy Burger 30c Get 2nd one /2 PRICE NO LIMITI FREE RELISH TRAYS KRAZY JIMPS 551, S. Division ... cor. Packard CoordinationI The coordinating feature will be a newly revised State Board of Education taking effect Jan. 1, 1965. Institutional autonomy is pro- vided within the bills through a set of measures which give inde- pendent constitutional status to each of the seven schools not cur- rently granted constitutional au- tonomy. , The schools include Ferris State College, Grand Valley State Col- lege, Michigan Tech, Eastern Michigan University, C e n t r a 1 Michigan University, Western Michigan University and Northern Michigan University. Constitutional Status The University, Wayne State University and Michigan State University are currently granted constitutional status, 'complete with their own governing boards. In giving the seven schools their constitutional autonomy, the con- con framers and the lawmakers have attempted to shape the pow- ers of the seven schools similar to the current powers of the "big three" which will be carried over. In the case of four universities -Western, Central, Northern and Eastern Michigan-provisions have thus been necessary to establish boards of control to consist of eight members appointed by the governor in January. Own Boards Ferris, Grand Valley and Mich- igan Tech currently have their own, governing boards. All seven boards-two members' o be appointed in staggered fash- ion; every two years--will be given by the bills authority similar to that of the Regents. This power includes independent financial control and the right to set operational procedures vary- ing from tuition to personnel ?se- lection. Other Problem One pertinent problem of over- lap between new and old consitu- tion is not being covered in this set of bills, however. This overlap is caused by the fact that the current State Board of Education will remain operative until a new one can be elected to take over Jan. 1, 1965. The current board is empowered with almost complete control over Eastern, Western, Central and Northbrn Michigan Universities. The University faces a minimum of legal changes when the con- stitution goes into effect, a fact which is reflected by its scant in- clusion in the 12 bills. Consumers Program Stresses Farm Development MOSCOW (I)-Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev yesterday assured hard-pressed Russians that the decades of deprivation necessary for building heavy in- dustry are at an end and the time. has come to satisfy the needs of the people. The Soviet leader announced plans for sinking more than 42 billion rubles ($46.6 billion) into developing the chemical industry under a new seven-year plan. Ma- jor attention will be given to chemical fertilizer for faltering agriculture. "The Soviet people created a first-rate heavy industry under the leadership of the party," Khrushchev told a plenary meet- ing of the Communist Party's Cen- tral Committee. "Now the state is in a position to channel enormous means into the development of chemistry, agriculture and light industry to produce more food and goods to directly satisfy the re- quirements of the people." Unprecedented Scale He said that the vast program would be carried out on a scale "unprecedented in world practice." One vital item on the agenda was how to boost the chemical industry and put more fertilizers into the Russian earth and more consumer goods i n t o Russian Khrushchev's plan for the per- iod 1964-70 calls for building 200 new chemical plants and rebuild- ing 500 others. The premier conceded that the Soviet Union would have to seek much of the equipment and know- how for the new chemical com- plex in the west. But he warned Western businessmen against try- ing to squeeze ;"fabulous profits" out of the Soviet Union. "We shall place orders with those who want to make an hon- est profit, provided there are cred- its, because this has become the norm of economic revelations," he said. See Political Weapon Khrushchev lashed out at "the malicious fever that has gripped our enemies" following this year's catastrophic crop failure. He de- nounced "the most reactionary and embittered enemies of Social- ism as (former German Chancel- lor Konrad) Adenauer and the like," claiming: "They gloat over the fact that the Soviet Union has had an ad- verse agricultural year and there- fore allegedly one can present po- litical demands to it and take it by the throat ... "They say outright that before selling wheat or supplying chemi- cal equipment to the Soviet Union, politicaldemands must be present- ed to it. "j Not Enough Grain Khrushchev indicated the So-j viet Union this year had been able to buy only about 44.8 mil- lion tons of grain from the West instead of the 65.5 million tons planned. Themasses of the Russian pub- lic have displayed open discon- tent about the shortage of flour and bread. In reply to grumbling, Khrushchev said: "There are some people who ask, 'How is it to be explained that now we buy grain, whereas when our gross grain production was smaller we sold grain our- selves?"'" He said that in the days of Stalin, the Soviet Union exported grain while its own people starved. "Yes, comrades, it is a fact that in a number of regions of the country, in the Kursk for in- stance, people starved to death in 1947. And we sold grain at that time." But Khrushchev cautioned the Western powers against "trying to dictate political terms to the So- viet Union." BackersHope To By-Pass Rules Group WASHINGTON-A drive to ob- tain signatures of 218 House mem- bers on a petition to force civil rights action quickly swept past the 100 mark yesterday, then slowed to a walk. Backers of the civil rights legis- lation sponsoring the petition be- lieve they will obtain as many as 160 signatures when the present session of Congress adjourns late this month. They still have all of next year but their goal is to force a House showdown next month. Long Line To Sign House members formed a long line when Rep. Emanuel Celler (D-NY) placed the petition on the speaker's desk. During the first hour of the session, 115 members, most of them Democrats, signed their names. Celler is the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, which ap- proved an omnibus civil rights bill on Oct. 29 but has been unable to dislodge it from the rules com- mittee, headed by Rep. Howard W. Smith (D-Va), a persistent foe of the legislation. Noting that many members generally frown on using the dis- charge petition approach to leg- islation, Celler asked his col- leagues to consider it "not as something unholy or untouchable" but as a part of the House rules. Smith Not Specific He said that while Smith has promised to hold hearings some- time next month, the promise was made in "Delphie language." "How soon in January?" he ask- ed. "Will the hearings be long or protracted?" There were several complaints about the procedure. Rep. John V. Lindsay (R-NY), a civil rights backer, said no Re- publicans had been consulted in advance. "I don't think this a good way to go about advancing the cause of civil rights in the United States today," he added. Rep. Paul Jones (D-Mo) com- plained of what he called the "demagoguery going on." Sa onsors of the petition believe that if Smith starts hearings as promised next month and then pursues dilatory tactics, the neces- sary 218 signatures will be obtain- ed in a hurry. c. WASHINGTON-Even as new civil rights legislation is sought, the Justice Department finds it- self unable to get the funds from Congress it needs to enforce exist- ing laws. This ironic situation has drawn almost no attention. The South- erners in Congress have succeeded quietly but efficiently in holding down appropriations for civil rights operations. The problem could come out into the open Thursday, when the Senate is scheduled to consider the Justice Department's appropriation for the current fiscal year. The Senate Appropriations Committee turned down last week a request for extra money for the department's Civil Rights Division. The committee took an unusual step of specifying that the addi- tional funds it recommended should go to other activities, not to those dealing with civil rights. More Aides Sought The Civil Rights Division has only 40 lawyers to carry on its programs throughout the South as well as in Washington. That compares with 300 lawyers in the Antitrust Division. In the current budget, President Kennedy sought 19 additional lawyers for civil rights. Some race relations experts outside the gov- ernment wished that the request had been higher. The House allowed only 8 pf the 19. The Justice Department hoped that the Senate Appropriations Committee, which is usually more generous, would approve the full request, or at least a few more. Not for Civil Rights In its report last week, the Senate Committee gavethe Justice Department $84,000 more than the House had voted. Ordinarily, it would leave to the department how to spend the money. But this time the committee I AUSTIN DIAMOND CORPORATION provided that the sum was to go to the department's Tax and Civil Division "to-.assist with the in- creased work loads." The Tax Division already has about 180 lawyers and the Civil Division 190. As is customary in Congress, the handling of the Justice De- partment's appropriation was left largely to a subcommittee. Five Members The five subcommittee mem- bers were Democratic Senators John L. McClellan (Arkansas), Allen J. Ellender (Louisiana) and Robert C. Byrd (West Virginia, and Margaret Chase Smith (R- Maine) and Roman L. Hruska (R- Nebraska). Two of the five were Southern- ers totally opposed to civil rights legislation. A third was from at border state, andneither of the two others has been especially identified as a civil rights advo- cate.
