Paul McCracken speaks at 'U,'
to teaching post at 'U

By PAUL TRAVIS
Stepping down from his post
as President Nixon's top eco-
nomic advisor, Paul McCracken
will be.- returning to the Univer-
sity next month as a professor
in the Business Administration
c Cracken, who was ap~point-
ed by Nixon to the chairman-
ship of the Council of Economic
Advisors in 1969, has played a
key role in formulating the
country's economic policies over
the past three and half years.
McCracken had planned to re-
turn to the University in Septem-
ber but said yesterday that the
new economic program was just
getting underway and "I felt it
was not a gooda tme to leave."t
Phase 1-which he had a major
role in developing-had achieved
its purpose.

"It was necessary to move in
a strong way," he said. "Prices
were just rising out of control."
"We have checked the price
data and the cost-of-living index
and there is little doubt that
Phase 1 did what it was meant
to accomplish-a slowing down
Herbert Stein, vice-chairman of
the council, will be appointed to
take McCracken's position.
Both McCracken and Stein
were part of the group that met
at Camp David with Nixon and
played key roles in formulating
Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the new
economic policies.
McCracken will resume his p0-
sition as Edmund Ezr Day Uni-
Administration and will probab-
ly be teaching classes during the
up-coming term.

According to The NeW York
Times yesterday, it was unclear
whether this was a real distance
limit or just a public stated policy
to cover a much deeper Indian in-
volvement in Pakistan. Under
Ram's announcement, however
Pakistani strongholds.
Meanwhile last night, President
Agha Mohammed Yahya Khan of
Pakistan appealed for United Na-
tions observers to be placed
along East Pakistan's battle scar-
red border with India and sought
Monday to reconcile warring po-
litical factions at home.
In East Pakistan, Bengali vil-
lagers claimed the Pakistan army
had obliterated several villages on
the outskirts of Dacca--the pro-
vincial capital - apparently to
clear a deep defense perimeter
against East Pakistani rebels. The
villagers claimed 300 persons were
killed.
The Itn diansesay that an East
Mukti Bahini, is doing most of the
fighting in an attempt to wrest
control from Pakistan's central
government.
East Pakistan is separated from
the seat of government in West
Pakistan by 1,000 miles of Indian
territory. The hostilities now un-
derway grew out of elections last
December in which the Awami
League, proponents of more au-
tonomy for the East, gained a ma-
jority of the legislative seats at
stake.

F ederai suit
By GLORIA JANE SMITH
A suit was filed Saturday with
the Federal Court asking that Mi-
chigan's anti-abortion statute be
declared unconstitutional
The lawsuit claims that Michi-
gan's anti-abortion law deprives

involves risk of death.
The suit is being filed by five
anonymous women along with four
doctors and three ministers.
