I '' a 3 i Profs to research "1 s ta tetax attitudes By AMY SALTZMAN For most voters, the tax proposals on last Tuesday's ballot are already a thing of the past, but for four resear- chers at the University's Institute for Social Research, the tax issue is still very much alice. PROFS. RICHARD Curtin, Paul Courant, Daniel Rubenfield, and Ned Gramlich are examining the tax cutting trends throughout the country, focusing on Michigan as an example of those trends. "Through this research we are at-f tempting to determine what peoples' preferences are apart from the yes or no choices they have on the ballot," Curtin said. Curtin stressed that Michigan is a good example -of such preferences because it is the only one of 15 states which had tax cut amendments on the ballot where the voters were given a choice ' between more than one proposal. "IN MICHIGAN, we can differentiate between those people who wanted tax reduction, but were not necessarily in favor of a property tax slash,'' Curtin explained. Curtin pointed out that when Michigan voters were given a choice, the only proposal they chose was the Headlee Amendment (Proposal E) - the least restrictive of the three proposals. According to Gamlich, the fact that Headlee passed by a narrow margin is an important indicator of the public's divided feelings about the size of the government. "YOU CAN TELL from the close vote on Headlee that an equal number of people would like to see an expansion as well as a contraction of government," said Gramlich. A primary concern of the study will be to discover if the emerging tax cut- ting trend is "a strong one that will con- tinue to spread or a weak trend and that people today generally prefer the current size of the government," said Curtin. Finding the answers to these types of questions is important,,according to Curtin, because Americans pay a smaller proportion of income taxes than citizens pay in many European countries. "Even in this country, taxes could go much higher." The study is still in its initial stages of surveying the sample of 2000 people. "We are now calling all 2000 people by phone and the survey is not limited to voters," Gramlich said. The first results of the survey are ex- pected sometime in early January. Bottle bill deposit problems? LANSING (UPI) - Although Michigan's "bottle ban" becomes ef- fective in less than three weeks, the state and the beverage industry still are fighting over who will claim the $30 million to $40 million in unclaimed deposits. House Conservation Committee Chairman Thomas Anderson said yesterday environmentalists have been out-gunned so far in their effort to have unclaimed deposits collected under the state's new bottle law diverted for recreation and conservation programs. Beverage industry representatives have made extensive technical presen- tations backing their claims that the cost of complying with the bottle measure far exceed any extra income they will receive by keeping unclaimed deposits. Giraffes were prevalent in Europe and Asia as well as in Africa 15 million years ago, says National Geographic. Early hunters killed the animals for their meat and hides and the giraffes disappeared everywhere but Africa, where they now live mainly in protec- ted preserves. aMaizm Blues FridayNovember 17.1978 Ptower Center 8:O0pm PIONEER SX-580 20-WATT RECEIVER Continuous power output 20 watts per channel, mm.
