vious two days. Alleged torture,
beatings and murders were de-
scribed as "commonplace" treat-
ment of South Vietnamese civilians
as well as Communist soldiers.
One veteran said his company re-
ceived special badges from their
commander for each Vietcong or
North Vietnamese soldier he killed.
The badges bore the inscription
"SAC Cong" which means "Cong
killer" in Vietnamese.
Although he said the badges were
no longer given, the veteran showed
letters from the army which he
said admitted the badges had been
used.
These and other means were
used as incentives to make the
soldiers want to kill, the veteran
charged.
In earlier hearings, veterans pre-
sented testimony directly contra-
dicting Pentagon statements on
battlefield reports. Michael Lin-
ter, stationed in northern South
Vietnam, testified that during
March, 1968, his company crossedl
the Laotian border twice.
Although the Pentagon has de-
nied that troops crossed into Laos
during this operation, Gordon
Stuart, a corporal in the same com-
pany, said U.S. soldiers went "at
least two miles" along route 922
into Laos.
"We did operate in Laos, though
the Pentagon won't admit it," said
Stuart. "We called in B52's to giveI
up support, but we lost at least 50
per cent of our men inside Laos."
Charging environmental plunder
throughout Indochina by American
forces, Prof. H. Pfeiffer of the
Social Scientists for Social Re-
sponsibility also testified in the
Sunday afternoon hearings.

THE MICHIGAN DAILY
* Drugs and drug abuse
The administration is committed to implementing the Ad Hoc Drug
Committee's excellent report. It stresses education, treatment, recrea-
tional facilities and law enforcement policies that distinguish between
hard and soft drugs and between pushers and users. Mobile crisis clinics,
multi-lodge, and treatment centers staffed by street people are also
part of the plan. The administration has furnished $6,000 to Ozone
House so far and has obtained a $64,000 grant for the local methadone
treatment clinic.
SHousing
For the first time ever landlords are learning that they have to obey the
laws-and good laws-too. The housing code was given teeth for the
first time: more inspectors, deadlines for compliance, an end to nominal
fines and a host of new remedies for the tenant and the City-rent
withholding, injunctions, and receivership. The City built public hous-~
ing for the first time-100 units up and 160 more under construction.
The administration has fought a dozen zoning and annexation battles
to increase the rental housing supply.
" Discrimination
The Administration has extended its anti-discrimination laws on hots-
ing to include employment, public accommodations and apprenticeship
training, and now covers sex as well as race. There are more effective
re'medies-cease and desist orders, fixed fines, injunctions and com-
pensatory damages. Affirmative action to hire blacks is required of the
city and its contractors. Testing' is authorized to find discrimination.
And the city has added a last crucial ingredient: new, vigorous leader-
ship in its own Human Rights Department.
* Police-cominmaity relations
Progress has been made, even in this most difficult of areas. The city
has appointed an ombudsman, banned the use of mace and published a
booklet on citizen's rights when arrested. Uniformed policemen are
now required to wear I.D. badges whenever on duty and now must issue
information slips to any citizen stopped but not ticketed or arrested.
Most important, the Harris Administration has handled confrontations
sensibly, maintaining the peace with resort to the absolute minimal use
of force.
* Environment and planning
Ann Arbor is an attractive city and the Harris Administration is trying
to keep it that way. It passed a $3 million bond issue to restore Geddes
Pond and repair Huron River dams, obtained grants for phosphate re-
moval and other sewage treatment improvements, passed four major
city ordinances on soil erosion, air pollution, (shopping center) land-
scaping and abandoned houses. And zoning, for once, has been used to
protect trees, streams and ponds rather than to promote narrow real
estate and developer interests.
* Public transportation
For the first time Ann Arbor has a city-owned regular bus system, with
a dial-a-bus plan prepared and awaiting state approval. Equally impor-
tant, the city has declared a moratorium on parking structure construc-
tion until its first comprehensive transportation plan is completed. The
plan will cover city and university; parking and movement; cars, buses,
cabs, bikes and pedestrians.
