That night, as the wire machines clatter out the news from around the globe, we'll offer a bounty of Daily representatives who will discuss with you our favorite topic-the Daily! We think you'll like it. The collector cometh Since September is the beginning of school for most of us, it's only fitting that the federal government has decided to crack down on students who failed to repay those government-insured loans which helped them foot their tuition bills and take home diplomas. The Office of Education- an arm of the government-says it will turn over loans totalling about $430 million to private collection agencies in hopes that the agencies will have better luck reaping the past due debts than the government. Roughly 390,000 persons have failed to pay back the loans since the program began nine years ago. Such loans are offered by private lending firms but are insured-or co-signed-by Uncle Sam. Once the private collectors obtain the files of delinquent borrowers, their credit ratings could be jeopardized. But Uncle Sam has a soft heart, it seems, and everyone will have a last chance to pay. "We'want to give them a chance to pay because, if their files go to the collectors, we want them to know that they are getting into said Leo Kornfeld, deputy commissioner for student loans at HEW. Kornfeld explained that such niceties as mortgages, credit cards and car loans could be in danger if the debts are not repaid. So if you know someone who ripped off the U.S. for a free ride through academia, wasrn that person about ,the impending debt collector. Uncle Sam, you know, won't be far behind.

Reagan said the agreement to turn the canal over to the Panamanians will weaken the United States as an inter- national power and increase chances that the Panamanians will seize control of the waterway before the year 2000, when U.S. control is to end. "THERE IS NO way this will be seen as magnanimous," the former Califor- nia governor said. "It will be seen as a further retreat by the United States." Reagan's testimony before a Senate judiciary subcommittee hearing came as the two chief U.S. negotiators for the treaties were testifying before a House International Relations Committee. Sol Linowitz and Ellsworth Bunker said Congress will be asked to approve $345 million in economic aid for Pana- ma, including $50 million for canal de- fenses. Asked what the United States would get in return for the aid, Linowitz said, "The most important thing we get is en- hanced assurance of an open, ac- cessible, secure canal." LIA.owitz said the Carter ad- ministration believes both houses of Congress must approve parts of the agreement, including the aid package and provisions to turn over police jurisdiction in the Canal Zone. But the Senate alone has the responsibility for ratification, he said. t THE MICHIGAN DAILY Volume LXXXVIII, No. 2 Friday, September 9, 1977 is edited and managed by students at the University of Michigan.

U.S., Canada aree on *'WASHINGTON (AP - The United States and Canada agreed yesterday to construct a 2,700-mile pipeline across Canada to bring natural gas from Alaska to the lower 48 states. The Canadian route was chosen over a competitive land-sea route because it will save U.S. consumers an estimated $6 billion in fuel costs, do less damage tTrthe environment and provide greater safety, President Carter said. )CARTER AND Canadian Prime Min- ister Pierre Elliott Trudeau announced igreement on the $10 billion project af- ter meeting for an hour in the Oval Of- tee. Both praised the project as an ex- aiple of American-Canadian coopera- tion. 'This joint undertaking will be the Largest private energy project in story," they noted in a statement. .The American-Canadian pipeline' lpuld run alongside the Alaska oil pipe- be before turning east along the 11aska Highway. It then would cross 016 rugged Yukon and enter Canada's Pairie provinces. .,The pipeline would split into two Branches before entering the lower 48 Mates. One branch would carry natural s as far east as Chicago. The other branch would serve the West Coast, en- dig in California. MEMOREX, Buy two- Get one Frsees 60-Minute Cassettes 4 .,2~ ~ N Ky.
