MORATORIUM: AN ANACHRONISM? See Editorial Page fit itgaun &t11139 BECHANCED High--74 Low--55 Cloudy, thundershowers Vol. LXXXII, No. 34 Ann Arbor, Michigan-Tuesday, October 19, 1971 Ten Cents Ten Pages VOTE SET: Cut sought in Faculty body gives SGC funds final endorsement TZ By TONY SCHWABT Brad Taylor Students to Vote on taxation By GLORIA JANE SMITH Students will soon be asked again to tax themselves to pay for the costs of the many small student governments in the Uni- versity's schools and colleges. S t u d e n t government repre- sentatives from several of the University's academic divisions met yesterday to finalize the fund- ing plan, which will appear among the referenda on the Student Government Council (SGC) ballot next month. A similar proposal appeared -on the SGC ballot last spring and was defeated. Several explanations were given at yesterday's meeting for the spring failure. Some representa- tives said the amount. of money asked for then was too much, and that appearing on a joint fund- ing proposal with SGC had "dragged it down." The proposal adopted yester- day asks that students tax them- selves 50 cents per term which would go to individual student governments.-Each student's mon- ey would be given to his student government. This amount would mean a fifty percent cut from the dollar per term request which appeared on the spring ballot and will appear on the ballot as completely sepa- rate from the SGC funding pro- posal. Unlike the college student gov- ernments, SGC plans to increase its funding request on the No- vember ballot, explained SGC president Rebecca Schenk. Although last spring SGC asked for a 60 cent increase, the No- vember proposal will probably ask' for an increase of "three to five dollars" in student funding, she explained. The SGC proposal will ask that 75 per cent of the funding increase be "committed to projects such as the Print Co-op and the Food Co-op," Schenk explained. The November college govern- ment funding proposal will stipu- late that the money would be sub- ject to "automatic dispersement." explained Lyn Epstein, Student Government Advocate. If a college does not have a rep- resentative government considered eligiblo by thn Central Student Judiciary (CS.J), then that col- lege's allocated money will remain in a fund for 14 months. An ad hoc group of stu- dents critical of Student Government C o.u n c ii has completed a petition drive aimed at challenging current student financial support of that body. Brad Taylor, '74 filed the, re- quisite 1,000 student signatures with SGC's administrative secre- tary yesterday in time to meet the filing deadline for referenda on the November SGC ballot. A 25 cent per-student, per-se- mester allotment to SGC has been in effect since 1954, when a new SGC constitution approved the al- location of this money from each student's tuition. Although the referendum's pro- ponents hope for a tuition de- crease, Vice President for Aca- demic Affairs Allen Smith said last night that "lowering tuition by $.25 a semester is not a feas- ible proposition." Smith explained that if the re- ferendum were passed it would be possible to "reallocate money in- tended for SGC." Taylor, an SGC member and a leader of the drive, says he hopes the expected vote will result in "some form of student government which will not act as a funding agency for pet political move- ments of the moment." Taylor claims SGC is not re- sponsive enough to student needs Instead of the current system, he advocates "undertaking the tui- tion postponement option in e- fect at Yale and dealing with the serious problem of faculty who abuse the library system by taking books out for unlimited periods of time." SGC's major allocations in the last year have included funding for a student print cooperative providing offset printing at cheap- er than commercial rates as well as a Women's Crisis center oper- ating a 24 hour telephone and counseling service. In asking students to sign the petition, members of the political- ly conservative group pointed to SGC's token gift to North Viet- nam. SGC passed a resolution last spring alloting $50 to buy blood plasma and medical supplies for non-combatant women and chil- dren in Indochina. The referendum states that SGC receives an amount sufficient to meet its legitimate annual expen- ses in the approximately $10,000 in outside income available this year.

The faculty representative body's proposal, however, will not become official University policy unless it is approved by the Regents-who are expected to consider it at their November meeting. The new policy had been en- dorsed in spirit by Assembly at a special meeting Oct. 4. The pro- posal was subsequently sent to the Senate Advisory Committee on University Affairs-the top faculty body-for final wording. The proposal states that the University "will not enter into or renew any federal contracts or grants that limit open publication of the results. "This general policy," it con- tinues, "will be suspended only in cases where the proposed research is likely to contribute so signifi- cantly to the advancement of knowledge as to justify the in- fringement of the freedom to pub- lish openly. In all cases, the bur- den of proof rests with the faculty research policy Another long wait .. . Crowds of people, many who began their vigil the night before, wait in line to buy tickets yesterday to upcoming campus concerts. Many, however, were disappointed, as the events were sold out soon after the tickets went on sale due to the large number of tickets bought by people at the beginning of the line.

VETO EXPECTED: Ward commission me-mbers changed, By SARA FITZGERALD Republican and Democratic City Councilmen went one more round last night in their fight over the political com- position of the Ward Boundary Commission. Council approved, by a 6-4 vote split along party lines, a resolution to name Republican Robert Meader as a commis- sion member and remove a Democratic member Dr. Theodore Beals, changing commission's composition to four Republi- can and three Democratic members. Mayor Robert Harris said he would probably veto the resolution next week. The boundary commission, first appointed in January when the Democratic party held the council majority, will soon begin redistricting the city's wards in accordance with 1970 census data.

I The trio-Sam Petty, 23; Ar- thur Young, 25, and Levi Valen- tine, 24-were arraigned in a courtroom crowded with support- ers who greeted them with clenched fist salutes. Criminal Court Judge James Yeaglin warned that the court- room would be cleared if there were further demonstrations, and there weren't any. The defendants are held in $150,000 bail each. Lawyer William Kunstler asked for an immediate hearing, but Judge Yeaglin delayed it 24 hours after he was told the wounded policemen were unable to appear. The four defendants are charg- ed with attempted homicide, rob- bery and possession of dangerous weapons. They allegedly robbed 25 black patrons of a Manhattan bar early Saturday, and shot it out with, police who arrived as they emerged from the bar. All four were arrested in a nearby apartment building. Brown was hit by two bullets, but the others were not wounded. The police account of the inci- dent was questioned Sunday night in Chicago by the Rev. Jesse Jackson, director of Operation Breadbasket, the economic arm of the Southern Christian Leader- ship Conference. Jackson said that Manhattan Borough President Percy Sutton, who is black, should lead an in- dependent investigation of the in- cident.

Sklar proposed as alternatives to a court suit a program formu- lated by the Daily staff itself to alleviate the problem, or some other action out of court. She also suggested that other agencies in the University, such as the Wo- men's Advocate office, be asked for advice on the problem. Sklar argued in favor of a court suit for its binding, long-term structure which would legally in- sure equality for women. See WOMEN, Page 10 tried to get two of their party's councilmen appointed to the com- mission. Harris vetoed the meas- ure and the Republicans later tried unsuccessfully to override the veto. Then, last Friday, the Republi- cans filed suit in Circuit Court against Harris and the commis- sion members, challenging the le- gality of the mayor's veto and the legality of the commission, since, the Republicans claim, it was not properly sworn in. Harris said last night that the Democratic Party had never at- tempted to remove Republican members of city commissions when they were the majority party. "The attempt to purge Dr. Beals and pack the Ward Boundary Commis- sion," he said, "is carrying parti- san zeal far beyond its proper realm."
