University Court 8:00 pm $2.00 at the door (763-5460) Defense officials agre Carter's modest Cuba Presented by University of Michigan, School of Music, Department of Dance WASHINGTON (AP) - Many people believe generals and admirals always urge blunt military responses to end a diplomatic impasse, but sources say U.S. defense officials concurred with the modest measures adopted to deal with the Soviet troops in Cuba. From a military standpoint, the' moves announced by President Carter essentially preserve the "status quo" in Cuba - the status of the Soviet troops will not change. Pentagon sources said this situation was endorsed by Carter's military advisers. THE SOURCES would only discuss the decision-making on condition that they not be identified by name. "Clearly, this was not the kind of situation where you'd think of using force," said one member of the small group that helped put together a repor- ted 30 possible military, economic and diplomatic options for Carter's con- sideration. While this adviser would not discuss specific options, he indicated that on the military side they involved largely a set of demonstrations and exercises that would point up U.S. capacity to marshal its military might. FOR NOW, CARTER is avoiding any response that might trigger a harsh Soviet reaction. Thus, the closest thing to a show of force is a Marine landing exercise scheduled for mid-month at the U.S. naval base in Cuba's Guan- tanamo Bay. "That's something we used to do an- nually," said a civilian official. He made it clear he regards the exercise as no big deal and expects other than rhetorical blust Cubans and Soviets.

Herman Talmadge. Other violations of law, including making false claims against the gover- nment and conspiring to defraud the government, also may have occurred, the committee said in its final report on the 14-month investigation of Talmadge. BUT THE PANEL did not single out anyone who it believed lied or commit-, ted any crime. The report said only that the panel had turned over its files on the Talmadge case to the Justice Depar- tment. . "Should the Department of Justice find evidence leading to the indictment or conviction of any member, officer or employee of the Senate, the committee will take such trdditional action as is, T'i~ :vestig eac ,t a r panel to recommend that the Senate denounce the Georgia Democrat's con-, duct as "reprehensible" and as a "gross neglect of his duty." THE COMMITTEE also recommen-; ded the Senate require Talmadge to repay $12,895 plus interest for over- charges made by his office of his of- ficial expenses. And it recommended he pay the interest on $43,436, which the committee said his office improperly collected through expense overcharges. Talmadge said he considers the committee's final report "a personal Talmadge victory" for him because "there is no finding of willful or intentional miscon- duct on my part." He said he has "no reservations whatsoever" to the Justice Department examining the committee's files and testimony presented to the panel. But Talmadge also said he has not decided whether to fight the commit- tee's recommendations on the Senate floor. The senator had contended earlier that the recommendation to "denounce" him rather than to "cen- sure" him was a personal victory. ALTHOUGH THE term "censure" carries no automatic loss of privileges, the Senate has traditionally considered it the severest punishment it can give to a member. There also was no indication when the Senate might act on the com- mittee's recommendations. The panel's report asserted that the testimony of some witnesses "conflic- ted in material aspects" with the testimony of others. Si n irIncde, therefore, that one or more of these witnesses not all of whom are Senate employees gave false testimony under oath," the report said. IT SAID certain testimony, if true, and certain documents, if authentic, "would indicate that other serious violations of law have occurred." witnesses Among possible violations listed by the committee were: " The making of false statements to the government. " The making of false, fictitious or fraudulent claims against the gover- nment. " Willful evasion of income and gift taxes. " Failure to keep adequate records as required by the Internal Revenue Code. Committee Vice Chairman Harrison Schmitt joined his five colleagues in their cautiously worded findings, but added a separate, harsher statement of his own. ANALYZING THE evidence in detail, he concluded that Mr. Talmadge "knew, of funds being diverted and that he was in receipt of such funds." The citizens group Common Cause complained in a statement issued soon after the report was released that the punishment of denunciation would be insuffic A. It posed that Talmadge be stripped of his post as chairman of the Agriculture Committee. Declaring that Talmadge had dishonored and disgraced the Senate, Common Cause said that failure to remove him as chairman "will once again say that the ethical standards of Senators are to be ignored."

(NTSC), of which Sycor is a sub- sidiary. "It was my understanding that we were going to have Sycor represen- tatives here tonight," said State Rep. Perry Bullard (D-Ann Arbor), who organized the committee.' The lack of interest among Sycor workers is due to uncertainty over their fate at Sycor, according to Bullard's aide, George Smeltzer. "They're not going to be interested in these things until they see what they are going to get from Northern Telecom," Smeltzer said. HOWEVER, Fred Veigel, an obser- ver from the Huron Valley Central Labor Council, suggested the union would be better able to provide services to laid-off workers than the committee. "It's almost an exercise in futility to keep this thing (the committee) going,' Veigel said, adding that finding new jobs was all the committee could do. "Other than that, what purpose are we serving?" Smeltzer disagreed, noting, "Half the people affected aren't in a union. They don't have that intermediary. The biggest problem is communication - who's going to be affected and when." Connally.. . cites Domino Theory Connally blasts Carter's Cuba rcolicy r GRAND RAPIDS (UPI) - Presidential hopeful John Con- nally yesterday severely criticized President Carter's handling of the Soviet troop situation in Cuba, saying the issue is not Cuba, but Soviet ex- pansion worldwide. "I am not alarmed about the troops in Cuba and I don't think the American people should be," the former Texas governor told a news conference. "What we should be alarmed about is that it is another natural step in Soviet expansionism. We have let them get away with it.." CONNALLY ARRIVED in former President Gerald Ford's hometown for a Republican din- ner in his honor. The Democrat-turned- Republican already has gained support from many long-time Ford supporters and pledged that even if Ford decides to become an active candidate for the GOP 1980 presidential nomination, it would not push him out of the race. Connally said if he were president, he would have asked the Senate to put aside con- sideration of the SALT II pact, asked for a six per cent increase in defense spending and deman- ded that Soviet and Cuban troops be pulled out of Africa and the Middle East. IN HIS SPEECH Monday night, Carter said he had received Soviet assurances that the several thousand troops stationed on Cuba pose no threat to U.S. security. He said the issue should not be linked to consideration of the SALT II proposal because arms limitation is too serious an issue to force into the political arena. Connally, however, charac- terized Carter as a weak leader and said the issue is the spread of communism itself. "We used to hear a lot about there being nothing to the domino theory," Connally said. rd5 Ag Wearyur fvrite' beer for only$ Q Now you can wear your beer without spilling a drop on yourself.
