WEAVER, who is employed as Mayor James Stephenson's administrative secretary, has stressed women's issues in her campaign. She says that mar- riage and divorce laws must be overhauled because they are currently inequitable. Giving vigorous backing to the Equal Rights Amendment, Weaver charges that Bullard and the other legislators-in- cluding the seven women now serving in Lansing - have "dragged their feet" on these matters. i _ _. i E i 1 Vietnam war veterans a mone- tinually kept him in the public tary bonus. eye but not always favorably. j With certain reservations and He -has lost the endorsement. stipulations, the major candi- of former Democratic mayoral* dates in the race support each candidate Franz Mogdis to of the proposals.

"That was a vivid demonstra- tion of an issue," Bullard says defending the action which out- raged a number of legislators at the time. "Sure it cost me something in the House," Bullard says, I HE ALSO urges decriminaliza- tion of all drugs and "victim- less" crimes, community con- trol of police agencies, and in- creased criminal rehabilitation programs. On many issues, Bullard takes stands similar to those of HRP in supporting economic reform based upon graduated income tax and guaranteed income. Bullard, who received his law degree from the University, also advocates decriminalization and a redefinition of personal free- doms: "the government cannot dictate what individuals do with |their leisure time, controlled substances and sexual activity." ~~ F' Michigan Women's Studies Association AND Washtenaw Community College PRESENT A Conference on Sex Discrimination in Education Saturday, November 2, 1974 Recognizing a severe problem, with the welfare system, Wea- BUT Alexander claims that ver, a University graduate with there is a vast difference be- an economics degree, advocates tween himself and Bullard be- changes that will "eliminate fat- cause the incumbent "refuses cat chislers" and free more to back up people in their funds for senior citizens. struggles and give them assist- DRAWN AS a "safe" Demo- from Washtenaw County Com- "but it was an important pol cratic area, the 53rd district missioner Elizabeth Taylor, an- that had to be hammer covers most of the city east of other radical Democrat. home."
