Friday, December 7, 1973 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Nine Friay Dcemer7,197 TE ICHGA DILYPae-i- Oil product exports up (Continued from Page 1) last week that domestic shortages could put medicines in short supply this winter. Manufacturers of other products dependent on petrochemi- cals have issued similar warnings of cutbacks. The Arab oil boycott threatens to cut deeply into the production of petrochemicals, which are derived from petroleum and natural gas. Petrochemicals are vital to the manufacture of such varied pro- ducts as drugs, plastics and syn- thetic fibers. Experts analyzing the complicat- ed Commerce Department figures said that export volume was run- ning about 10 to 15 per cent above' 1972 levels through October. They said the dollar value was about 35 per cent above the 1972 figure. PETROCHEMICAL sales, domes- tic and foreign, totaled $20 billion in 1972. Exports were $2.4 billion. "We're definitely feeling the supply squeeze but we have not had to cut back production for penicillin and other drugs," said a spokesman for Pfizer Inc., a major' drug manufacturer. "The situation, could get considerably worse if allocations are reduced." Toy manufacturers are big con- sumers of plastics made from Wolverines praised by state politicians petrochemicals. The Toy Manu- facturers Association said there were enough supplies to complete normal production for this Christ- mas. But plastics cannot be pur- chased in sufficient quantities to begin making Christmas toys for 1974, a spokesman said. In a recent study, Arthur D. Little Inc., a Massachusetts-based research firm, said that a 15 per cent reduction in petrochemical output could leave 1.6 million to 1.8 million people unemployed in industries dependent on petro- chemicals. The study said a 15 per cent cutback in petrochemical production would cost the economy $65 billion to $70 billion annually. The annual Gross National Product is $1.3 trillion. The Commerce Department fig- ures were for each of the many petrochemicals exported, but were not totaled. In many of the nu- merous categories, exports for the first 10 months of 1973 exceeded figures for all of 1972.

The resolution was passed on a voice vote. T H O U G H UNJUSTLY de- prived of their rightful chance at the 1974 Rose Bowl, the Wolver- ines are truly the 'Champions of the West,"' the resolution reads. "In spit of numerous injuries, they surged ahead in the true Wol- verine tradition." The resolution lauded the Mich- igan team for an "incredible achievement" and asked the Sen- ate for concurrence in support of the tribute. IN A second football resolution, introduced but not yet acted upon by the legislature, Rep. Charlie Harrison, (D-Detroit), called for a special committee to study the feasibility of holding an annual post - season college football bowl game at the Pontiac Metropolitan Stadium. "The Midwest region of the Unit- ed States has long been recog- nixed as the cradle of college foot- ball," Harrison's resolution states, "yet there has never been an es- tablished post-season bowl game played here, presumably because of adverse weather conditions." The Pontiac stadium is an all- weather sports arena. If passed by the legislature, the feasibility committee woulld be, granted $2,500 to conduct the study. }GIFT BOUOK SALE!,~ IPUBLISHERS * REMAINDERS * REPRINTS AND " SPECIAL IMPORTS AT STATE STREET AT NORTH U SUMMIT MEDICAL CENTER Free Prep uncy Testing PROBLEM PREGNANCY COUNSELING NO CHARGE BIRTH CONTROL INFORMATION Approved by National Organization for Woman (N.O.W (313) 272-8450 _. i9N Come See I~f t Our Sele ction Ann Arbor's Most Complete Pleasure Reading Center LITTLE P"ROFESSOR"S-Maple Village FRIDAY, DECEMBER 7 6:30 P.M.
