BUT AFL-CIO President George;
Meany said the latest figures were
"'beyond belief" and'demonstrateda
that President Nixon's "economic
game plan, freeze and phases are
an absolute failure."
Castigating Nixon for his veto of
the $2.20 hourly minimum wagel
bill, Meany asked, "How in the

name of simple decency can the,
President deny the worst paid
workers in America an increase int
their minimum wage when they
have to pay these prices when theyj
reach the retail level?"
Last month's boom in wholesale
prices was clearly triggered by
the President's order lifting the
price freeze on all foods July 18,:

on beef prices,
THE 23 PER CENT gain in raw
farm products in August was more'
than triple the record for any
previous monthly advance.

as 40c in the past eight months,
eggs have leveled off in sales. One
sales manager reports this is due
to customer resentment of having
to pay as much as a dollar a doz-
en. Egg availability and produc-
tion are also down, he reports, so
he predicts the drop in price will
be short-lived.
Milk, which has gone up as much

STUDENTS LIVING in the dorms
are also feeling that they aren't

the University is simply too re-

marijuana fine, which set a $5
penalty for use and sale of the
drug, during a stormy meeting last
July. The fine was originally en-
acted by a Democratic - HRP co-
alition on the previous council.
THE PETITION campaign seeks
to reinstate that law as a charter
amendment, - with one m a j o r
change. If approved the amend-
ment would still allow the fine to
be paid in the same manner as a
parking ticket, but city police could
not turn persons arrested for using
marijuana over to county authori-
ties for prosecution under state
statutes, as was done in the past.
"HRP sees this addition as the
first, small step towards commun-
ity contrgl of the police depart-
ment and its policies," comments
Schoichet.

Once the required signatures are
collected the state attorney gen-
eral's office must approve the ac-
tual wording of the charter amend-
ments as they will appear on the
ballot. The governor must also give
rubber - stamp consent to the
amendment, but HRP anticipates
no opposition to the measures.
"A COURT COULD conceivably
declare the marijuana amendment
unconstitutional but that possibil-
ity is so remote as to be dis-
counted entirely," Shoichet says.
Shoichet expresses confidence
that the marijuana charter amend-
ment will easily be approved by
the voters. "If people who smoke
dope come out and vote, we will
win with that constituency alone,
but many non-smokers believe it's
a gross injustice to make arrests
for marijuana use," he explains.

Similarly, he sought to blunt

"It was a very peculiar situa-

to inform the congressional com-
