if there is a massive indication I
of public support for it, through
something like a letter-writing
campaign."'
Stroup took a different view
of the fate of the legislation
"If we don't have it this year,"
he predicted, "we'll have it
next year before the election.
The Republicans don't want it
to be a campaign issue."
He added, "It will be easier
to pass in the House than in the
Senate because of all the new
members."
THE MARIJUANA reformist
indicated that a "civil fine" pot
bill, which would discontinue
the categorization of pot of-
fenses as felonies, may soon be
introduced in Congress.
"It's our feeling," Stroup
said, "that we have a shot at
passing a civil fine bill if we
get a conservative co-sponsor
like Goldwater or Buckley.
Those two in particular aren't
sympathetic, but the Republi-
cans tend to like that bill."
"The possibilities of mari-
juana legislation passing have
improved since last year," not-
ed an aide to Javits. "There
has been better response in
terms of being able to find co-
sponsors for the bills."
But a spokesman for Senate
Majority Leader Mike Mans-
fil (.Mont) avse tha

ment did much to elucidate
questions surrounding the na-
ture of the University's offer
to Cobb.
Burns said Rhodes refused to
answer questions unless the
Minority Commission, Affirma-
tive Action and Women's Com-
mission members present could
guarantee complete confiden-
tiality.
ACCORDING to Burns, when
the group did not agree to share
the administration's no - com-
ment policy, the meeting "went
around and a r ou n d" and
Fem'ing and Rhodes"would not
sa what kind of offer Cobb had
received or what role the Re-
gents had played in the nego-
tiations.
Burns said, "I can't remem-
ber any question being really
confirmed."
She labeled the administra-
tion's tight clamp on informa-
tion "an uniusual silence ...
P e o p 1 e generally dissatisfied
with the press statement."
CONCERNED faculty mem-
bers, Affirmative Action, Mi-
nority Commission, Women's
Commission, and Black Facult
have blasted the University's
two year, no-departmental-ten-
iire offer to Cobb asa clear vio-
lation of affirmative a c t i o n
policies.
In yesterday's statement, the
administration answered, "We
have been conscious from the
ouitset of the sensitiivty of this
appointment with regards to af-
firmative, action and are pre-
pared to support our action pub-
licly, should this be necessary."'
Burns yesterday demanded
"immediate public explana-
tion. Coordinator of minority
affairs Retha Flowers, who was
similarly dissatisfied with yes-
terday's official statement was
disturbed that the administra-
tion's contract to Cobb as re.-
ported in the Daily does not
show a commitment to affirm-.

they'll do something to keep
prices down."
Most of the dealers surveyed
insisted that times were never
that bad in the city before the
rebates were introduced. A cou-
ple reported good Decembers,
and blamed a scare-mongering
press for the fact that it was
not better.
"I'd just as soon you people

proclaimed one angry manager
of a Buick dealership. "Business

IT MAY be that the city is
not the best place to examine I
the effects of the rebates be-
cause of the fairly stable eco.-

Unversity.

*Tuition. The GEO has pro-
posed that all of their mem-
bers pay a $200 per term fee
in lieu of tuition, effective
January, 1975. The University
has offered to freeze the pres-
ent tuition rate for all GSAs
with more than a ten-hour work
load per week. The University
tuition pronosal would cost $1.5
million. The union demand
would approximately double
that.
* Agency shop. The union has
demanded this clause which
they claim is standard for any
labor contract, and indeed, the
University has grantedl it to
the other unions on campus. An
agency shop clause provides
that the employer deducts a
service fee, to be paid to the
union, from the paychecks of
all GSAs whlo are not union
members. The service fee,
which is agreed upon by the
GEO, cannot exceed the amount
of dues for certified union mem-
hers. The University has re-
frwsed to agree to the proposal
because, they claim, the un-
ion does no t have a large
enongh rmembership to justify
it. The GEO claims otherwise,

union demands that there be no

sity has agreed to all but the
last stip-lation, on the grounds
that sexual preference is a pri-
vate matter which has no place
in a labor contract. The GEO
