MANSFIELD MOTION:


Council

Senate accepts
pull-out clause
WASHINGTON (N) - The Senate renewed yesterday its
call for total U.S. withdrawal from Indochina, setting a six-
month deadline contingent on release of all American priso-
ners.
Senate Democratic leader Mike Mansfield appealed for
action to "bring this horrible war to an end."
The vote.was 57 to 38 in favor of Mansfield's amendment
-which would not be binding on President Nixon-to the
$21 billion military procurement bill.
Yesterday's vote was slightly closer than the 61-38 mar-
gin when the Senate attached a similar Amendment to the
draft extension bill in June.

War foes
set Oct. 13
activities
By MARCIA ZOSLAW
±voam C h o m s k y, well-known
linguist and longtime anti-war ac-
tivist, will be the featured speaker
at an Ann Arbor teach-in to be
held Oct. 13, National Moratorium
Day.
The teach-in is a local adapta-
tion of a national moratorium
sponsored by the National Peace
Action Coalition that will hopefully
"stop business as usual" and
force continued introspection on the
way.
The local teach-in, organized by
the Ann Arbor Coalition to End
the War, will also include a noon
march to promote student voter
registration.
The march wi" begin at the Diag
and end at City Hall. where speak-
ers will emphasize the need for
an increased anti-war vote.
' Afternoon teach-ins are also
planned for campus and downtown
locations to include the entire Ann
Arbor community.
While many faculty members
have promised their cooperation,
no definite plans for moratorium
workshops have been scheduled
yet.
Coalition members admitted at a
meeting recently their concern
about receiving free use of Uni-
versity facilities needed for speak-
ers and symposiums.
"The dollar question is crucial,"
one member said. "If we develop
the kind of sentiment on this cam-
pus that I think we can build, the
University should cooperate with
us." he added
Coalition members claim that the
"vast majority'' of the American
people are in favor of a complete
withdrawal from Indochina.
In fact. "most of the silent ma-
jority is totally smashed," exulted
Hartrunt Wisch, a leader of the
Ann Arbor group.
Financial-support for past anti-
war teach-in activity has come
mainly from the faculty who were
in the Ann Arbor teach-in two
years ago. Dave Gordon, a leader
of the Ann Arbor coalition, said.
The Ann Arbor coalition also or-
ganized the Oct. 15, 1969 each-in.
At that time poet Allen Ginsbcrg
spoke at Hill Aud., SDS founder
Tom Hayden and others addressed
a peace rally of over 20,000 in the
stadium, homes and factories were
leafletted and most classes were
cancelled or devoted to discussion
of the war.
According to the fall program,
Oct. 25-29 is slated for nonviolent
civil disobedience in Washington,
centering around Veterans' Day
Nov. 3 is set for a national stu-
dent strike, and on Nov. 6 there
will be anti-war demonstrations in
regional centers across the nation.
Labor leaders and student organi-
zations have endorsed the demon-
strations to be held in Detroit.

"You can't stop the war by an
act of Congress of this kind," Re-
publican leader Hugh Scott said,
supporting the Nixon administra-
tion's position that the amend-
ment is a waste of time and po-
tentially harmful.
John Stennis (D-Miss.), agree-
ing with Scott said, "Every time
we pass this amendment in this
way we put obstacles in our path
and lend bncouragement to the
enemy."
The entire bill including the
amendment will eventually go to
the House and will probably face
stiff opposition there. The ear-
lier amendment was rejected by
the House and then diluted by a
Senate-House conference into a
call for President Nixon to nego-
tiate an end to U.S. involvement
in Indochina "as soon as practic-
able."
The touchy issue of the Ameri-
can prisoners swirled throughout
the debate on the amendment
yesterday. When Scott said the
amendment would give up a val-
uable U.S. bargaining card, Mans-
field shot back: "What is that
card - the POWs?"
Mansfield's amendment also re-
quests that the President nego-
tiate with North Vietnam for an
immediate cease-fire and for a
series of "phased and rapid with-
drawals" of U.S. forces in return
for a corresponding series of
phased release of American priso-
ners.
Before voting on Mansfield's
amendment, the Senate rejected
51 to 42 an amendment by Sen.
Thomas Eagleton (D-Mo.) to cut
$35 million added by the Senate
Armed Services Committee for
additional research on a new U.S.
tank.
Eagleton contended "blind con-
gressional acceptance of bland
Army assurances have kept this
highly questionable tank rolling
along." Committee members said
development of the tank is essen-
tial. .
The amendment declares it is
U.S. policy "to terminate at the
earliest practicable date all mili-
tary operations of the United
States in Indochina and to pro-
vide for the prompt and orderly
withdrawal of all United States
military forces not later than six
months after the date of enact-
ment of this section subject to the
release of all American prisoners
of war held by the government
of North Vietnam and forces al-
lied with such government."

COURT DECISION SOUGHT:
Gov., Kelley ask ruling
on1 school property tax,

campu
By ROBERT SCHREINER
Student Government Coun-
cil early this morning voted
overwhelmingly to comply
with a list of administrative
steps for implementing the
campus - wide judiciary sys-
tem at the earliest possible
date.
At 12:40 a.m., SGC members
called the question to a vote and
it passed 9-1 with one abstention.
"I will immediately set i n t o
motion tomorrow everything that
Council has been asked to comply
with regarding the judiciary," SGC
President Rebecca Schenk told
Council members after the vote.
This includes establishing in-
terview boards to nominate stu-
dents for membership for the new
judiciary's Court of Appeals, and
presenting a list of final nominees
to the Regents for review at their
Oct. 21 meeting.
One week ago, Council had voted
6 4 to refuse to comply with the
steps, outlined in a memo from
the office of Richard Kennedy,
secretary of the University, which
aimed for the adoption of the new
system approved by the Regents
last spring: "as soon as possible."
Kennedy has said this would hope-
fully be just after the Regents'
October meeting.
"We have hopes of reaching a
better settlement," SGC Member-
at-Large Rick Higgins said at the
time. However, earlier this week,
several Regents contacted by Hig-
gins indicated they would not now
consider revising the system to
meet several Council objections to
the plan.
This morning, Higgins recom-
mended that Council comply with
the steps, saying "We have to
take action on it now and start
the new system rolling."
"I told the Regents our objec-
tions, and they listened," Higgins
said. "But each of them said they
had already compromised and that
they considered the present plan
to be an acceptable one."
Thepresent system which is
now free to be put into effect is
a Regent-modified version of the
original draft drawn up by the
Committee on a Permanent Judic-
ary, a tripartite body of students,
faculty members and administra-
tors.
It provides for students to be
tried by a jury of their peers-sixk
other students-and includes six
students on the 12-member Court
of Appeals and one student on the
three-member panel of judges. {

BLUES AND ROCK:
UAC-Daystar shines
In new concert series
By DANIEL JACOBS
The.University Activities Center (UAC) has expanded its
series of rock and blues concerts in an effort to provide reg-
ular musical entertainment for the Ann Arbor community.
With the part-time help of Peter Andrews, who handles
both publicity and booking, UAC hopes to establish the Day-
star concert series as a permanent institution.
"We're laying our financial life on the line," says UAC's
Coordinating Vice President Judy Kursman, referring to
UAC's sizable deficit at the beginning of this semester.
UAC incurred heavy losses

Festivals in the summers of '69
and '70, and last year's Homecom-

LANSING(/P)-The state's sys-
tem of financing public schools
through local property taxes and
state school aid grants could be
ruled unconstitutional, if the
State Supreme Court reacts fav-
onably to an action announced
yesterday by Gov. William Milli-
ken and Atty. Gen. Frank Kel-
ley.
If the court agrees with Milli-
ken and Kelley that the present
system is inequitable and un-
constitutional, the biggest re-
lief could go to low middle class
or working class areas which

Atty. Gen. Kelley

have little industry to tax, but
have high property taxes.
The action was prompted by a
recent California Supreme Court
decision declaring unconstitu-
tional that state's methods of
financingxschools through local
property taxes and grants.
The Californiarcourt held that
the local property tax system
provides b e t t e r education to
children living in wealthy or
heavily industrialized areas than
to those living in poor school
districts.
The announcement by Repub-
lican Milliken and Democrat
Kelley provides impetus to a
proposed increase in the state
income tax to replace the prop-
erty tax-based system of financ-
ing public schools.
Nearly six months ago, Milli-
ken called for elimination of
property taxes for school financ-
ing and raising the flat-rate in-
come tax by 2.3 per cent to 6.2
per cent.
Business would pay 2 per cent
special tax to replace the prop-
erty tax relief it would receive
under the plan.
Under Milliken's p 1 a n, the
state would provide the same
level of support to every school

FLORIDA CASE
ces jail after abortion

By PAT BAUER

i

The country's movement toward'
liberalized abortion laws seems to
have found a rallying point in the
person of Shirley Wheeler, a Flo-
rida housewife who could be sen-
tenced to spend 20 years in jail
for having an abortion.
Wheeler was convicted July 13
after a two-day trial in DeLand,

the county seat of Volusia County,
Fla. She is currently awaiting sen-!
tence. The maximum penalty un-
der the 103-year-old Florida abor-
tion law is 20 years.
According to Joyce Broughton, a
local spokeswomen for the Wo-
men's National Abortion Action

name is expected to be a catch-

word at the Nov. 20 march on
Washington for abortion reform.
"It's just another example of
traditional society's refusal to let,
women make their own decisions,"
she says.
The Ann Arbor chapter of
WONAAC is currently gathering
signatures for a petition request-
ing Florida's DemocraticGov.
Reubin Askew to pardon Wheeler.
Wheeler's attorney, James Rog-
ers, has asked Felony Court Judge
Uriel Blount for a new trial. If the
decision-expected this fall-is neg-
ative, Rogers says, the case will be
appealed to the Florida Supreme
Court.
Wheeler was convicted under an
1868 law, which makes having or
performing an arbortion a felony
unless it is "necessary to protect:
the life of the mother."
At her trial, Wheeler testified
that she paid $300 for an illegal
abortion in Jacksonville, Fla. She
said she had the abortion because

gantown. N.C.. had told her a!

local rock group, Andrews brings
several years of experience in the
music field to his new job.

WASHINGTON (A)-Six Mexi-
can American women have be-
come pregnant after being given
fake birth control pills in an
experiment financed by a State
Department agency and a drug
company.
The six, plus an undisclosed
number of others, were given
fake pills in a test to determine
whether side effects from oral
contraceptives are mostly im-

tion, said in an interview he did
not believe any of the 398 wo-
men were told that some of
them might be taking fake pills.
Instead, he said, "all were told
the pills they were taking might
not be completely effective." He
said those women taking the
fake pills were given other back-
up forms of contraceptive de-
vices such as foams and creams
and repeatedly urged to use

"Someday the word 'student' may be-

This is the thinking of at least one
administrator, William Hays, on how the
University should respond to the chang-

ahead.
Presently working under Vice-president
Allan Smith in the academic affairs of-
fice,' Hays is no stranger to the Univer-

sive ideas about education, and a genuine
interest in students.
One student, prominent in campus poli-
tics, however, recently characterized Hays
as "a tool of the administration." Hays,
he asserted, was no more than a "lackey"
running the literary college according to
the dictates of the administration. This
included dismissing of a student because
he was politically undesirable to the ad-
ministration, the student said.
