CRC blasts state
police hiri ngaction;
racism charged
The Michigan state police and the Michigan Civil Service
Commission yesterday stood accused by the Michigan Civil
Rights Commission (CRC) of discrimination in their refusal
to hire two black trooper applicants.
Sidney Singer, state director of civil service, said his
agency would reconsider the two cases in light of "a new
affirmative action program" for equal employment.
The cases involved Joseph Graves, Jr. and Robert Green,
Jr. The CRC said it believed both men are qualified to become
troopers.
Graves, according to the CRC, was initially rejected lastj

CONTINUE CAMPAIGN:
PCPJ to test sit-in

(Continued from Page 1)
Froines, told reporters yesterday
that Phase Two would include four
months of an "intensive educa-
tional campaign" designed to "give
the American people the facts"
about Nixon.
This education will basically con-
sist in "exposing" what PCPJ
leaders .considerNixon's "decep-
tion of the American public."
One method of doing this, ex-
pressed at the press conference,
will be to establish a "caravan,'
of PCPJ organizers showing edited
video-tapes of the "people's pan-
el" deliberations which took place

here over the weekend.
The panelacomprising 19 per-
sons from all segments of the
protest movement, heard "testi-
mony" over the weekend from var-
ious speakers, and concluded by
compiling the tribunal's testimony
into an "indictment" of the Nixon
administration.
Also, according to organizers,
PCPJ will be working to develop
similar tribunals on a local level
to deal with smaller local prob-
lems. One suggestion was that
thesepanels could investigate
companies suspected of polluting.

arrests
The coalition has also developed
the outlines of an election stra-
tegy directed at the upcoming
presidential primaries.
According to Froines this will
consist of "confronting the candi-
dates" with questions on how they
stand on various issues PCPJ con-
siders important-specifically the
seven point peace proposal of the
Provisional Revolutionary Govern-
ment of South Vietnam.
The primary strategy will also
i n c 1 u d e educational campaigns
among the voters attempting to
dissuade them from voting for
Nixon.
The culmination of the "Evict
Nixon" campaign will come ac-
cording to Froines, at the Repub-
lican National Convention in San
Diego next July.
While declining to go into stra-
tegic specifics, Froines stressed his
hope that the demonstrations in
July will include a cross section of
the country.
"For the first time," he said,
"when people watch demonstra-
tions on T.V. they will be seeing
themselves."

desh, Mallick told the audience
that the aim of the East Pakistani
struggle is no longer directed to-
wards political equality-but to-
wards independence. '.To give up
now," Mallick asserted, "would
mean the annihilation of the Ban-
gali race."
"The brutal West Pakistan army
has no regard for civilians," Mal-
lick continued. "They are brutal
in their treatment of children, and
women by the thousands are now
bearing the children of these sol-
diers."
T h r o u g h his cross - country
speaking tour, Mallick hopes to
drum up public support in favor
of a bill currently before the Sen-
ate that would cut funds to the
West Pakistan government until
some settlement has been reached
with the East.
Students sympathetic with the
Bangladesh cause have organized
a float with guerrilla theater for
Homecoming this week.
In addition they plan to picket

a birthday party for Sen. Robert
Griffin (R-Mich.) at the Michigan
Union Nov. 6. Griffin is leading
the opposition in the Senate to
the proposed fund-cutting bill.
The current conflict arose last
December when Pakistani Presi-
dent AghawMohammed Yahya
Khan allowed free elections to be
held across the country for a
National Assembly.
In the smaller but more populous
East Pakistan, the r e f o r m i s t
Awami League won an overwhelm-
ing victory, gaining enough seats
to assure that Shiek.Mujibur Rah-
man, head of the league, would be
the Prime Minister of all Pakistan.
"Yahya Khan did not realize the
political unity among our people,"
Mallick said.
Shortly after the election, how-
ever, Yahya ordered the Pakistan
army into East Pakistan and ban-
ned the Awami League-sparking
the bloody conflict between sep-
aratist rebels and the Pakistani
army.

"Cleaning the fuel precludes the
necessity to clean the engine,
which can never be totally effic-
ient," he adds.
According to Russell Taylor, In-
ternational Material's vice presi-
dent for marketing, the company
wanted to invent a car that would
not alter the existing internal
combustion engine found in. to-
day's automobiles, and that would
not adversely affect the petroleum
industry.
One of the advantages of the
system, said Taylor, is that it takes
up almost no space since it fits

is then recirculated to react with'

remaining water pass out the tail-
pipe into the air.
The device's makers also claim
that with the system gas mileage
will be as high or higher than at
present, the car will perform asI

less maintenance will be required
than with current automobiles.
