UAW supports Fraser
as Woodcock successor F _

DETROIT OP) - The United Auto
Workers' executive board unanimously
recommended yesterday that Vice Presi-
dent Douglas Fraser succeed retiring
President Leonard Woodcock in May.
And, in an unexpected move, the
board recommended that the 1.4 million-
member union decide at a special con-
vention in September whether to reaffil-
iate with the AFL-CIO.
THE LEADERSHIP'S support for the
60-year-old Fraser, the only candidate
for the presidency, had been expected.
But the plan for a special convention
came as a surprise.
It previously was thought that the
UAW, which bolted from the 13.5 million-
member labor federation in 1968, would
rejoin in May to coincide with the re-
tirement of Woodcock, an advocate of
reaffiliation.
Woodcock, 65, said at a news confer-

WASHINGTON )) - Presi-I
dent Ford yesterday proposed
combining key federal agencies'
into a Cabinet-level energy de-
partment to solve one of the na-
tion's most urgent problems,
achieving energy independence.
Ford sent Congress legislation)
similar to a plan proposed by
President-elect Carter, thus set-
ting the basis for a bipartisan
approach-to the problem.
THE President's plan would
combine functions of the Fed-
eral Energy Administration

ment into the new department.
Carter has said one of the first
goals of his new administration
will be to establish a single en-
ergy department. He has men-

day session in September to "decide the
issue one way or the other."
FRASER IS VIRTUALLY assured of
the presidency of the nation's largest
industrial union. But he still faces two
procedural hurdles - endorsement by
the national steering committee as the
"administrataive caucus candidate" in
February and formal election at the May
convention in Los Angeles.
Both Woodcock and Fraser, along with
a majority of the 26-member executive
board, support reaffiliation. Woodcock
said it is the UAW's "duty" to help re-
shape a united labor front in this country.
However, union officials have said
there is considerable concern over a loss
of political freedom should the UAW re-
affiliate. One ranking union leader said
the decision on rejoining the labor feder-
ation was delayed primarily to give of-
ficials time to work out an arrangement
under which the UAW could retain some
autonomy on political and social issues.'
-Tr - OK'd
I think we've done our job."
Council also approved a resolution re-
questing the federal government to name
the new federal building on Liberty in
honor of the late Sen. Philip Hart (D-
Mich), and passed several resolutions
providing for kitchen inspections in small
group housing units.
Under terms of the resolutions, the
Washtenaw County Health Department
and the University will share responsi-
bility for inspecting the kitchens of -
small group units such as co-ops, fra-
ternities and sororities, and for enforc-
ing city health regulations.

What Would You Give To
TRIPLE YOUR READING SPEED?
If you're getting behind in your studies and need a speed
reading course, but you can't afford the cost, then I've got
something for you.
It's a simple new way of helping you learn tested and proven
speed reading techniques found in the most famous reading
programs at a fraction of their cost. -
I taught speed reading for abot five years, and watched the 1
price go up from $150 to $400. That is a major expenditure,
and I think that I can help people learn those same tech-
niques for a lot less money.
So, I've put together a speed reading and study effectiveness
course called Reading Effectiveness Training and I'm offering
it at an introductory price of $26.95.
This price includes classroom instruction, a 140-page reading
manual, a cassette tape of reading instructions, and a cassette
of reading drills that will help you push up your reading
speed and increase your reading comprehension.
Don't let the low price fool you. Most students double their
reading speed within one class session, and many are reading
close to a thousand words per minute within a week with
regular practice.
But the course goes beyond reading speed. It shows you a
whole new way to organize your learning. You learn to put
your notes from a whole chapter or even an entire book on
one piece of paper. You learn to integrate your class and
reading notes on a single page of your notebook. Studying
for a test or writing a paper is easy with all your notes on
one page.
You also learn a multiple study process with your speed
reading skills that will cut your study time and free you to
do your own thing.
It doesn't work for everything. I couldn't use it in Statistics
or math classes, but it is great for almost anything else.
I'd really like to see these techniques go to work for you.
Give me a call today and let's work something out. I'm Leon
