Vol. LXXXI, No. 53 Ann Arbor, Michigan - Tuesday, November 3, 1970 Ten Cents Eight Pages -., RECRUITING POLICY QUESTIONED Us. votes today; Regents to review OSS decision By GE#I SPRUNG' The Office of Student Services (OSS) policy board last night considered a letter from President Robben Fleming which said that the recruitment policy the board had adopted is contrary to a regental decision, and must be cleared through the Regents. The OSS policy board responded that any organization that disagrees with OSS recruiting policies should meet with the policy board first, before going to the Regents to decide the issue. Fleming suggested in the letter that the policy be debated before the Regents by OSS and other interested organizations. The OSS policy requires a corporation to participate in 4 a forum if it is asked by one per cent of the student body. If'the caorporation refuses, the Fleming talks on 'U finances, i ~By {HARLEEN COOK President Robben Fleming yes- terday said a'tuition increase may be one method of solving Univer- sity financial 'problems. Speaking to dn LSA faculty meeting, Fleming cited the effects the United Auto Workers (UAW) strike against General Motors (GM) would have on education through appropriations at the state level. / An expectation of a six-week strike was, built into the state's budget -at the start of the fiscal ;year, Fleming said, but the strike is now in its seventh week. A deficit of between $4 and $5 mil- lion accumulates each additional week of the strike because of the state's loss in tax revenue. A provision in the State Con- .stit tion prohibits deficit spend- s ng, so the state must make bud- get cuts, thus affecting education appropriations. Tax increases, Fleming said; said, are seer by many politicians as "the only way Michigan can gain revenue." He specifically mentioned proposed increases in income and state appropriations taxes. Among other causes of financial problems, Fleming cited the Uni- versity's commitnent to 10 per cent black enrollment by 1973-74. He emphasized that if the Fed- eral government were to help bear some of the cost of the additional fiancial aid required, it would mean less expense for the college. Fleming also mentioned Federal and state programs in the area of aid to the disadvantaged as pos- sibly alleviating University finan- "p cial problems. However, he added, "It will be necessary to generate those funds internally if there is -no other source. Another financial p r o b 1 m Fleming said is the inadequacy of University salary increases which arfe "barely keeping up with the cost of living, if that." Fleming spoke of drawing inoney from other areas to finance such in- creases. Fleming listed the other causes of financial troubles as inflation, and as the "serious cutback in Federal funds." In other business, psychology Prof. Raphael Ezekiel introduced a resolution calling for an Ad Hoc Committee to look for alter- natives to the present method of selecting nominees for seats in A the Senate Assembly. en it will not be permitted to -recruit using the OSS Place- ment Service. The Regents, when they debated the issue in 1968, decided such a forum should be voluntary.n Fleming indicated that the Re- gents would also have to consider a second aspect of the OSS policy which would prevent corporations frors using OSS placement ser- ices if they engage in discri.ina tion in nations where such prac- tices are legal such as South Africa. raHe stated that it was impor- tant to know whether such cor- porations were in violation of American law. If they are then, '"suchi activity would seem clearly illegal here," he said. "If they do rnot, it is a policy question."

But the National Weather Ser- vice predicts chilly and wet con- ditions today for Southeastern Michigan. Possibilities of rain are about 90 per cent.\ In order to combat this, Demo- crats are organizing a ' massive "get-but-the-vote" drive, aided by computers and some 15,000 volun- teers in the field. Armed with computerized lists of persons who are Democrats or are likely to vote Democratic, the volunteers will begin telephoning those who have not voted byl late this afternoon, urging them to go to the polls and offering trans- portation and child care services if needed. Levin's most important advan- tage may lie in the strength of the., statewide Democratic ticket. Head- ed by Sen. Phillip A. Hart, who is predicted to take nearly 65-70 per, cent of the vote against Republi- can candidate Lenore Romney, the ticket may sweep Levin into the governor's chair. See MILLIKEN, Page 8 r) Levin may be in trouble. Good weather generally means a larger turnout of low- income voters, who may find it difficult to get transportation to the polls, or who may be easily discouraged from voting. Vote on 3i*ssues By ANITA CRONE Michigan voters will decide on three statewide issues when they vote today. The proposals include a bonding issue for low-cost hous- ing, the 18-year-old vote and the most controversial of the three, the parochiaid issue. The parochiaid issue, proposal C, has overshadowed the other two proposals. The proposal would prevent the use of public funds for non-public elementary a n d, secondary schools. Proposal B would amend the Michigan constitution and, lower the voting age to 18. It was soundly defeated on the 1968 bal- lot. In the meantime, the U.S. Con- gress enacted the Voting Rights amendments of 1970 which would lower the voting age from 21 to 18 in all states for federal, state, and local elections. Currently, hear- ings are being held in federal courts questioning the legality of the' amendments.- If the anmend- ments are upheld, statewide voting requirements will remain. Proposal !C will permit the first large-scale expression of p u b Ii c sentiment on the parochiaid is- sue in the state. Thirty-six states now provide at least token aid to non-public schools, and expanded programs ar being sought in many of them. Michigan has begun a program of state subsidy to Catholic a n d other n6n-public schools. Those who advocate a 'Yes' vote, to kill the parochiaid program, feel that a 'No' vote will open the door to larger and more expanded appro- priations for non-public schools. Many who advocate a 'No' vote say the proposal woulld eliminate UAW GM STRIKE members talk 0to classes By EUGENE ROBINSON Striking auto workers spoke to some 40 Uni- versity classes yesterday in an attempt to gain support from students. The workers, who are currently striking against General Motors, were aided by the Students to r Support the' Auto Workers (SSAW), who coordi- nated the drive and set up speaking dates and times. They reportedly 'ran into little resistance from professors in arranging the appearances. According to Norman Smallwood, a striking worker, the workers came to "awaken students to theefact that there is a strike going on." He said the drive was extremely successful, and thatr students seemed very receptive to' their ideas. Smallwood- said they were trying to make stu- dents realize that the strikers were working class, dome of the same things such as inverse seniority and a better disciplinary system. He cited examples of what he called "unfair' treatment" by General Motors. Weems attacked GM's disciplinary system, saying, "If you are accused of doing something wrong, you have to wait $t least a year to get a ruling on whether or not you are guilty. In the meantime, you are punished and you have no say in the matter whatsover." Weems also told the students what means the UAW was using to combat these procedures, in- cluding the formation of classes to inform workers of their rights. Asked whether he thought the program had been successful in enlisting the support of stu- dents, Weems said "I'm sure it was." He said he Prominent issues that have been featured in most gubernator- ial races are lawlessness, state fi- nances, and rising taxes. Of the 10 major industrial states, eight have gubernatorial elections and all except Texas have a GOP seat at stake. Demo- ciats are favored in Ohio and Florida, and have at least an out- side chance in Massachusetts, Michigan and Pennsylvania. Democrats are regarded as lead- ing for Republican governorships in Arkansas, Florida, Minnesota, New Mexico, Ohio and South Da- kota and are expected to retain the office in Alabama, Georgia, Hawaii, Maryland, Texas and Kansas.I Republicans are ahead in Con- necticut and Tennessee - which now have Democratic governors- and are favored to retain the gov- ernorships in Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Iowa, New n .:: . > r.<_ , . 5MWWWI'masamens
