library renovation.-
The cutback would, however,
affect next year's proposed
renovation of central campus
science buildings. It will also
mean a halt to all construction
on the Flint and Dearborn cam-
puses.
AS SERIOUS as the financial
situation is right now, it is
likely to get worse. The gov-
ernor's office has proposed a
four per cent cut in state ap-
propriations for the non-salary
portion of next year's budget.
This will necessitate still fur-
ther University cutbacks. Flem-
ing stated last month that he
saw no way to further trim the
budget - short of faculty cut-
backs or a tuition hike.
In his October letter to Flem-
ing, Governor Milliken indicated!
that "Tuition increases and en-
rollment decreases ae not via-

ble alternatives." Gerald Miller,,
assistant director of the Depart-!
ment of Management and the
Budget for Milliken, yesterday
indicated the governor is still
"strongly opposed to a tuition
hike," a somewhat softor stand!
than previously.

Each side bases its argument
on a 1974 MERC decision which
