TheMichigan Daily-Friday, January 12, 1979-Page 5 } POL POT'S WHEREABOUTS UNKNOWN: Cambodian leaders flee BANGKOK (Reuter)-The new Vietpamese-backed regime in Phnom Penh yesterday established the "People's Republic of Kampuchea" while ousted Deputy Prime minister Ieng Sary, possibly accompanied by President Khieu Samphan, fled the country for China. Sary was believed to have been flown out of the border town of Poipoet yesterday by a Thai military helicopter and taken to Bangkok to catch a flight, to Hong Kong. A BRITISH COLONIAL government spokesman in Hong Kong said Sary was stopping there briefly on his way to Peking. There was no reliable information on the whereabouts of Prime Minister Pol Pot, who has variously been reported killed, already in Peking or still inside Cambodia organizing a guerrilla cam- paign. Usually reliable sources said Sary and Samphan had requested per- mission to leave via Thailand for a third country, but Thai Foreign Ministry of- ficials Could not confirm whether Sam- phan was on board the Hong Kong flight., THE NEW REGIME in Phnom Penh, which says the Pot government no longer exists, said in a statement broadcast by Hanoi radio that it had changed Cambodia's name from "Democratic Kampuchea" to the "People's Democratic Republic of Kampuchea." It claims control of all Cambodia, but Western diplomatic sources in Bangkok and Pol Pot Foreign Ministry officials at the Kampuchea-Thai border said fighting was still going on. Insurgent forces took Phnom Penh last Sunday and set up an eight-man People's Revolutionary Council on Monday headed by former Khmer Rouge commander Heng Samrin. The regime has been recognized by Viet- nam, Laos, Ethiopia, Afghanistan and all the Soviet block European countries except Romania. The rebel radio yesterday broadcast an appeal from the new regime's defen- se minister to "youths and cadres in the army to take care in defending the country and destroy the enemy." This was taken as an implicit admission that resistance persisted. The diplomatic sources in Bangkok said scattered fighting was still going on all over the country and Pol Pot government officials here quoted by a Thai border liaison officer in the eastern border town' of Aranyaprathet, opposite Poipet, as saying serious fighting continued in the southwestern Cambodian provinces of Koh Kong and Pursat.

Governor calls f (Continued from Page 1) party differences," he said. The governor said he recognized the failures of the past years in several major policy areasabut quickly added the influx of a. new and young group of state legislators could lead to a "year of great progress for Michigan. "With the election year behind us, with experienced leadership in both of our branches, and with some im- pressive new members in these cham- bers today, we have a good opportunity to work cooperatively for change," said Milliken. IN HIS 15-MINUTE speech Governor Milliken stressed that although the electorate approved several limits on the power of the state legislators on the November ballot, such as the Headlee Amendment, he still believes that "an age with limits need not be an age without hope. "Restraint need not halt progress. It provides an incentive to reexamine and revise. It's not going to hurt our basic institutions to shake things up a bit," he said. But he failed to specifically mention, to the surprise of some legislators, the recently-passed tax limitation pro- posal. STATE REP. Perry Bullard (D-Ann Arbor), back for his fourth term in Lan- sing, said one of the top priorities of the 80th session of the Michigan State Legislature is to solve the state's ever- increasing tax problem, and that the governor just wanted to "leave himself open on the matter." The Ann Arbor representative added that the governor's heavy emphasis on intra-party unity for the upcoming session was just a weakly-disguised message issued because "he had nothing positive to propose. "Other than the urban programs he mentioned, everything else was only proposals mentioned many times in the past," said Bullard. AMONG THOSE proposals announ- ced by the governor include: s aplan to establish a credit on the single business tax for new em- ployment in extremely high unem- ployment urban areas. * a move to double the' bonding authorization of the Michigan State Housing Development Authority, in- creasing it by $900 million to $1.8 billion. * an overall land resource planning bill for the state. To demonstrate his strong concern for revitalizing Michigan's major cities, Milliken announced the designation of Lieutenant Governor Brickley as the administration's urban or unity coordinator and head of a newly formed community development cabinet. "As I noted earlier, Michigan has a well-deserved reputation as a national leader in providing assistance to urban areas. In the past, our efforts have focused primarily on expanding the economic base in urban areas, creating new employment opportunities and promoting neighborhood stability. We must continue to move aggressively in these areas," he said. DURING LAST year's tense election struggle, the governor was often criticized for his administration's mis- management of the PBB controversy and documented abuses in some of the state's mental health centers. Yester- day, he tried to subdue that criticism by pledging to mend the errors in both areas. "I again urge approval of legislation' to provide for the monitoring of the use of all toxic substances in this state from manufacture to ultimate disposal," he said. "Our mental health system has gone through a year of turmoil which has tended to obscure the fact that it is one of the finest in the nation.tOur task in this area is to address the problem which exist and make it an even better system." r8 For less .than twenty bcs seehow easyitis.

Cinema Guild originally intended for a professor to speak on the film's inac- curacies and historical distortions before the screening, but two professors who would have been qualified to speak were unable to, for various reasons,- according to Honeyman. A leaflet authored by film professor Frank Beaver about the history of the film, as well as its content, was handed out by members of the guild. The leaflet, a transcription of a WUOM radio broadcast by Beaver on August 15 of last year, read in part, ". . . the film v can be viewed as a symbol of political excessiveness and a propagandistic display which works against equality and justice in our country." Beaver, who was present at the screening, noted, "It's important we continue to show the film, especially as the (Ku Klux) Klan continues to use it." The Ku Klux Klan, which is portrayed favorably in the film, has been using it to win support for its anti-black fen- timent, according to an Associted Press report printed on the same leaflet as Beaver's broadcast. Supporters of the boycott included ministers from the Guild House, John Powell of the University's Community Services, Ellen Offen, director of Project Community, Margarita Torres of the Minority Student Services office, Marti Bombyk, president of the Graduate Employees Organization, Kate Rubin of the Michigan Student Assembly, and members of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity. The Black Student Union did not boycott the film because most of its members had not seen it, according to spokeswoman Vicky Rowels. YOU R TOTA L PET CENTER ..
