Bond
By GLEN ALLERHAND
Appearing last night at East-
ern Michigan University, Geor-
gia State Senator Julian Bond
blasted the current system of
American government. "Over
the past half-decade," he said,
"the reins of government have
been seized by the cold, callous,
and smug."
He referred to "near genocid-
al politicaltresults" that have
been perpetuated by the federal
government upon the Ameri-
can people during a time of an
"impotent Congress."
SPEAKING of the 1972 presi-
dential election, he remarked
that it "reinstalled fiscal fas-
cists in government and it in-
sured a four - year reign by
people with contempt for
others."
Bond spoke to an appreciative
crowd of approximately 400,
predominantly black, who inter-
rupted his speech several times
with applause and laughter.
He won election to the Geor-
gia Senate in November, 1974,
ATTENTIO I
"a n-

blasts
I after having served two terms
in that state's house of repre-
sentatives.
BOND, 35, was originally re-
fused his seat in the Georgia
House in 1965 because of his
strong opposition to American
involvement in Vietnam.
Following a Supreme Court
decision that his constitutional
rights had been denied, though,
Bond was eventually given his
f seat.
Keeping no secrets about his
disdain for the Ford Adminis-
tration, the Georgia legislator
" commented, "Today is April
Fools' Day and a man from
Michigan is the President of the
United States."
HE emphasized the differ-
ence between the political ac-
tivism of the previous decade
and current political inaction.
Remarked Bond, "An entire po-
litical movement came to near
maturity in the 1960's. It be-
came a partial victim of its own
success. There was nothing to
sustain it, and it was dissipated
by struggles on the edge."
In addition, he said, "The
frenetic activity of the past dec-
ade created a political move-
ment of selfishness."
Shifting to an international
perspective, Bond stated, "If
you have a global view, you can
see swift changes taking place.
Only in America is there hesi-
tation and failing. Only here
do minority causes rise and fall
with the regularity of the
moon."

Charter Amendment "A" can

supposed to help.
it can hurt renters.
That's why so many renters will
"X" the "No" box on
Amendment "A" when
they vote on April 7.
How can "A" hurt renters?
Well, just like rent control
has hurt renters in Cambridge,
Mass. and in Boston and in
any other town where it
has been tried.
If L-i i. *1. 4 n a ,. a a 4 n rr" nn4-

1. Some building owners turned
their buildings into
condominiums. Renters had
to buy their apartments.
Or they had to move.
2. Some building owners
weren't able to keep up with
taxes and other expenses. In
time their buildings became
"run down" and unrentable
and then the buildings were
simply abandoned.
3. Banks stopped lending
money for the construction
of new apartment buildings.

Thus, rent control created a
shortage of apartments.
And, as you might expect, the
pressure created problems where
renters were pitted against
renters, and owners were pitted
against the control boards.
And the cities found themselves
with costly new administrative
problems that loomed larger
and larger each year.
"A" isn't the right answer for
Ann Arbor renters.
It can hurt more than it can help.
That's why you should vote "No".
