Selective Service Director Curtis W. Tarr said yesterday that while fewer might be called, the 1971 draft pool, consist- ing of men just turned 19, would be smaller than the 1970 pool. As the first pool under the lottery system, the 1970 pool included men from 19 to 26. Men in the 1971 pool were assigned their lottery numbers - a different set from those used in 1970 - in a double draw- ing last July that matched their birthdays with numbers from one to 365. Shortly after Tarr spoke, the Defense Department an- ---- nounced a February draft call i Millikden asks 'Cuts In budget* LANSING (P) - To meet t h e state's money pinch, Gov. William Milliken has outlined an addi- tional $110 million in revenua in- creases and spending cuts, includ- ing a $15 million reduction in local school aid. According to a state official, the proposed cuts will not appreciably affect the University's state fund- ing for this fiscal year. Fidele Fauri, University vice president for state relations and planning, said yesterday, "We're hopeful that the University will not be included in spending re- ductions. This institution couldn't absorb another cut without laying people off." If Milliken's recommendations are approved, a minor building project at the University's Fl in t campus will be deferred for a possible cutback. Milliken's proposals, following previous recommendations 1 a s t November to save $62 million, are designed to close the $108 million gap between revenues and ex- penditures by July 1. The difference between the $110 million in money-saving pro- posals and the $108 million rev- enue gap gives the Legislature "$2 million to money around with," Milliken's budget director, Glenn *Allen, said, today. The recommendations, in a let- ter to members of the Legisuature, are:, -Cut school aid by two per'cent In each district for a total of $15 million. Milliken said it would be left for each school district to de- cide where to best apply the reduc- tion; -Reduce the so-called "grand- father clause" in the school aid bill by $12 million. This clause guarantees each district aid at a previous level; -Reduce a portion of the re- * tirement\ funding to the s t a t e public school retirement system to save $6 million; --Cut capital outlay by $5 mil- lion; and -Freeze all state medical pay- ments to the December, 1970, lev- els, saving $2 million. e The above recommendations re- quire only the approval of the See MILLIKEN, Page 8 of 17,000, the same as Janu- ary. Tarr said he does not know how many draftees the Defense De- partment would request in 1971' but he cited published reports that Secretary of Defense Melvin R. Laird estimated the total would fall between 80,000 and 12.000. Tarr's guess that local boards could meet the 1971 requirements by inducting men with numbers up to 195 c o ulI d, therefore, be thrown off by changes in Penta- gon needs or other factors, such as the enlistment rate. Tarr discussed the 1971 outlook in a conversation following a news conference in which he announced administration plans to seek an1 end to college student deferments this year. Asserting that the schools are not legally required to provide the information, Tarr said it is the responsibility of the draft regis- trant to provide information re- lating to his classification. The administration also wants to start a uniform national call, allowing the same lottery number to be called everywhere, instead of the present system of geographi- cal quotas. Both moves require congres- sional approval. Attempts to ob- tain this last year were postponed by the chairmen of the House and Senate Armed Services Commit- tee who preferred, Tarrtsaid, to consider the proposals this year when the draft law comes up for extension. Under t h e geographical quota system, Tarr told newsmen, local boards, throughout the country met their manpower requirements at different levels of the lottery list, up to the number 195 ceiling set by the national headquarters. Tarr estimated the highest num- ber called by most boards in 1970 averaged about 190. -Associated Press Nixon's tax-ideriy Treasury Secretary David Kennedy (above) in California and Undersecretary Charles Walker (below, left) in Washington explain to newsmen yesterday changes ordered by President Nixon in business depreciation allowances to revive the nation's economy.

STATE RULING REQUIRED: City Council considers radical party request for ballot place appears By SARA FITZGERALD and HESTER PULLING A strike by University service a n d maintenance employes late this week was considered < increasingly likely yesterday as negotiations for a new con- tract between Local 1583 of the American Federation, of State, County, and Municipal Employes (AFSCME) and the University w e r e reportedly bogging down. A member of the union nego- tiating team said the University "did not seem to be attempting to reach agreement before Thurs- day," the contract deadline, and that a strike seemed "inevitable." James Thiry, manager of em- ploye and union relations, would not comment on the possibility Cof a strike. However, he and Charles Mc- Cracken, president of the union. described negotiations towards a contract to replace the one which will expire at midnight Thursday as "slow." A University spokesman said yesterday it was a "reasonable speculation" that the University would seek an injunction against SUR( the union if it went on strike. When AFSCME workers at East- ern Michigan University went on 4 strike in September, the university S sought an injunction against em- ployes under state laws that for- bid public employes to strike. IHowever, Circuit Court Judge Wil- and instead ordered AFSCME and EMU into further mediation. WA Meanwhile.

"These workers aren't professional, but they're helping professional people per- form their jobs. I think this might help show that these people shouldn't be mis- treated by professional people," he says. "We were just talking today about how people doing the same thing are getting different pay just because so much de- pends on whether they like you or dislike you," adds a hospital maid. Some of the same workers had a num- ber of reasons they weren't anxious to "Everybody ought to stop and just get their bearings," he says, "In fact, I think somebody should have stepped in and kept an eye on things a long time ago." Perhaps the most consistent theme of the replies to questions about the strike is dissatisfaction with the union leadership. the most frequent complaint concerning the lack of communication between the rank and file and the leadership. "There hasn't been much information given to the workers, and there haven't been enough workers at the meetings to provide much representation," complains one worker.
