Democrats divided over mayor's race?

provide low cost abortions. The!
proposal to fund the clinic had
the strong support of Democratic
council candidates Etherl Lewis
(Fourth Ward) and Carol Jones:
(Second Ward).
Franz Mogdis' campaign per-
sonnel had promised that a press
release describing Mogdis' posi-
tion on the Clinic would be dis-
tributed Monday morning, before
the Council vote. However, Mog-
dis' release did not appear until
March 13, the day after.
Mogdis explains he "couldn't get
to members of the Council before
then to see how they would re-
act to the proposal."
The manner of the proposal's
defeat, in which male members of
the party voted against the desires
of women party candidates, has-
according to former Democratic
worker Marcia Federbush-"made
Democratic women panicky."
Mogdis admits, "It certainly
didn't allay any fears" women
might have about Democratic cal-
lousness to their concerns.
Even if the difficulties with the
women can be ironed out between
now and election day, victory can-
not come easy unless that other
huge sector of the city's vote is
successfully converted to Mogdis'
cause.
These voters ,of course, are the
students.
Political observers agree that
without them, Mogdis, and the five
council candidates on his tickets,
stand little chance of dictating
city priorities.
In an attempt to woo the stu-
dent vote, Democratic organizers
have established a type of high-

they face concerted threats from

Democratic strength in the city
is of very recent origin and has
never been more than tenuous. The
high-water mark of the Demo-
crats was the election of Mayor
Robert Harris and four council-
men in 1969.
Since then, Democratic power
has waned. Though Harris was re-
elected in 1971,the no longer had
a council majority.
HRP further eroded Democratic
control last year when they filled
two council slots and acted as
spoilers in three other council
races.

cides," even if NLRB's suggested
reinstatement offer is ordered.

they'll be terminated. As far as
I'm concerned, their only reason
for complying is that they're being
fired." Close says the company
gave Wolgel sufficient time to
comply.
Wolgel claims he did not receive
written notice that he was to be
fired, as the union contract re-
quires. Close says the statement
of the alternative disciplinary pro-
cedures Wolgel received was the
written notice.
Wolgel and Greg Broad, another
guard also fired last month for
failure to comply with haircut reg-
ulations, have been unable to file
for unemployment insurance.
Apparently, the Burns office told
the Michigan Employment Security
Commission (MESC) that the men
were still Burns employes.
