McGovern trails DETROIT-Democratic presidential hopeful George McGovern was still trailing President Nixon in the opinion polls, but by how much depended on which poll you read. A poll conducted for Time magazine and the New York Times put McGovern 39 percentage points behind Nixon-23 to 62 per cent. But a new poll, announced in Detroit last night by veteran sampler Louis Harris, held out some encouragement for the senator. Harris said McGovern trailed 31 to 59 per cent, with ten per cent of the voters undecided-a margin of only 28 points.

Daily Magazine Editor Mark Dillen examines the malaise of the -U-- 0 Union By CHRIS PARKS In response to an investigation by The Daily, the Board of Directors of the Michigan Union yesterday voted to suspend its policy of fingerprinting its check-cashing customers. Although not on the agenda, the members voted to suspend Union manager Stanfield Well's fingerprint- ing edict of two weeks ago. Many complained that they had not been consulted on the fingerprint policy. Others had civil libertarian objections to the rule. None of six board members inter- viewed by The Daily knew of the fingerprinting until they were asked 1 fdrops for an explanation of the policy by this reporter. Among the six and coordinating the board. There the board. were the president vice president of are 15 members on The board members who objected to the policy called it "an inconvenience to students," "inappropriate in a Uni- versity community," and "a violation of civil liberties." Union general manager Stanfield Wells said yesterday he instituted the fingerprinting in order to combat check fraud, which he said costs the Union $400-$500 a year. He defended his decision not to bring the matter before his board, check saying it was "a management de- cision." UAC President Richard Booth dis- agreed, and raised the Issue before the board after being told by The i Daily of the fingerprinting policy. According to UAC's Coordinat- ing Vice President, Frank Begun, the decision to suspend fingerprinting was made after extensive debate in a closed session, All fingerprinting will now be sus- pended at least until the board's Oct. 23 meeting. According to Begun, the board will also reconsider the ban on press coverage of its meetings.

The interim agreement limits the Soviets to 1,618 land-fired missiles and the United States to 1,054. It limits the Soviets to up to 62 sub- marines with up to 950 missiles and the United States to 44 sub- marines with up to 950 missiles. The Jackson amendment notes that the U.S.-Soviet defensive anti- missile treaty also signed in Mos- cow May 26 limits each country equally to two antimissile sites. The resolution: "Urges and requests the Presi- dent to seek a future treaty that would not limit. the United States to levels of intercontinental stra- tegic forces inferior to the limits provided for the Soviet Union. The resolution also backs Nix- on's concept that what it calls "a vigorous research and develop- ment and modernization program" for U.S. forces is needed to keep pressure on the Soviets to ne- gotiate a broader arms limitation treaty. It also urges Nixon or his suc- cessor to seek early Strategic Arms Reduction Talks (SART) with the Soviet Union, mainland China and other countries "to eliminate the threat of large-scale devastation" and free ever-rising arms costs for peaceful use. F o r e i g n Affairs Committee Chairman Thomas Morgan, (D.- Pa.), told the House he consider- ed some of the Senate strictures unnecessary and redundant but urged the House to accept them to speed the way for further U.S.-So- viet talks this fall.

Japan, China ml n omreeatol pla norml relations PEKING (JP)-Prime Minister Kakuei Tanaka expressed Japan's regret and repentence yesterday for past aggression against China and joined Premier Chou En-lai in predicting total agreement in their talks to normalize long-strained relations. Tanaka used the words "profound self-examination" to express Japan's feeling about a half century of Japanese military aggression that left China broken and exhausted. He fell short of an outright apology because he still must face the extreme right wing of his own Liberal-Democratic party, which is critical of his reconciliation toward the mainland Chinese.

A twenty-minute investigation by The Daily yesterday did what SGC could not do in a month: Find the elusive Silverstein. But the solving of the Silverstein mystery begins another: who has been sending the telegrams from Winni- peg, Canada bearing Silverstein's name? "I didn't send any telegram," said Silverstein from his Califor- nia hideaway. "I'm obviously not in Winnipeg." Silverstein stated positively that he had no intentions of relinquish- ing his SGC seat. "I haven't writ- ten a letter of resignation," he said. "Obviously, I'm not resign- ing."

The visit is expected to establish diplomatic relations between Pe- king and Tokyo and sever Japan's 22-year-old diplomatic links with the Nationalist Chinese on Taiwan. The 74-year-old Chou touched~ briefly on Japanese militarism in his toast but said, "the past not forgotten is a guide for the future" and added that "the Chinese people make a strict distinction between the very few militarists and the broad masses of the Japanese people." He went on to say that it was the common desire of both countries to restore diplomatic relations and asserted, "Now is the time for us to accomplish this historic task."
