Doge Two THE MICHIGAN DAILY Wednesday, February 23, 1977 "age Two THE MICHIGAN DAILY Wednesday, February 23, 1977 TU's Summit-Hamilton strike reaches standstill By STU McCONNELL As the Ann Arbor Tenants Union (TU) strike against Sum- mit-Hamilton Management Co. ground into its second month yesterday, TU's Elliot Ryan said negotiations were "at a stand- still." "Right now I'd say most of our negotiations are over the phone," said Ryan. "We're go- ing to try and set up another meeting this week." THE STRIKE centers around the Arbor Forest apartment building on South Forest St~, where tenants complained they were getting insufficient heat during the January cold snap. Tenants demanded a three- month rentdrebateas compen- sation, as well as removal of a clause which charged them for cooking gas - all Arbor For- est stoves are electric. They al- so demanded a maintenance clause permitting tenants to call outside contractors after a cer- tain period of time. TU negotiators also asked striking tenants to press for recognition of the union, but the demand was later dropped. a five-week rebate and removalf of the gas clause; tenants coun- tered by lowering demands to two months' rebate and compen- sation for electric bills. "Some people had $90 in elec- tric bills," Ryan explained. According to Ryan, although Summit-Hamilton has made con- cessions on the issue of rent compensation, "they only want to deal with compensation. They don't want to deal with mainte- nance, with individual mainte- nance problems." Representatives of Summit- Hamilton would not comment on the negotiations. TU IS TRYING to break the logjam by asking the Arbor Forest tenants to drop mainte- nance demands. Ryan said he hopes to begin negotiations later this week. TU is also on strike against Troney Associates and against Reliable Realty. The Reliable strike dates back to December, 1975.

Many civil rights groups, feat-! ing an adverse ruling from the Supreme Court, urged Lhe un- versity regents not to appeal the state court's judgment. They felt that the program's failare to admit "disadvantaged" whites made it a weak test case. MORE THAN a dozen civil rights organizations joined inefl- ing a friend of the csour. br of asking the justices Sao: to accept the case for review.

"Part of the trouble developed from a logical and very clear tendency in government to act in secret because to control in- formation and to limit informa- tion is to have power." But these laws do not end the problems of secrecy, Bullard said; people seeking information are frequently shut out.
