DAN KAPLAN, who rents
property in the South Univer-
sity area, said he will be charg-
ing his tenants from five to six
dollars a month extra in rent
to cover the assessment. Ac-1
cording to Kaplan, theassess-
ment, if carried out, will drive
low-income renters into the out-
lying areas of the city.
Kaplan produced lists of mer-
chants, tenants, and property
owners in the area who opposed
the assessment. "They want to
see improved parking," Kaplan
said of the merchants, "but they
don't think a special assessment
is the way to go about financ-
ing it."
"That's the whole problem
we're faping," Council member
Louis Belcher (R-Fifth Ward)
interjected. "Nobody wants to
lose the parking, but nobody
wants to be the one to pay for
it, either."
OTHER OPPONENTS of the,
assessment approach claim thatI
benefits of the carports go pri-
marily to out-of-towners and
suburbanites who use the facili-
ties when they attend University
functions or do their shopping
downtown.
Larry Cooperman of the Ten-
ant's Union claimed the Speciall
Assessment District would in-
clude "most of the lower in-1
come tenants in Ann Arbor,"
and called the scheme "an ex-
ample of taxing the poor toi
subsidize the rich."
Defenders of the concept were
few and far between, and their
support was openly lukewarm.
Guy Larcom, a former city ad-
ministrator now with Ann Ar-
bor Tomorrew, credited park-
ing expansion with "making the
downtown area in every way,"
and told the dissenters they had
to choose between "a 40 to So

rates or a Special Assessment
District."
ARTHUR KENNEDY of Ker-
rytown, another supporter of
the scheme, chided non-drivers
for their opposition. "The rea-
son downtown is such an attrac-
tive place for people who don't
drive is because there are peo-
ple who do drive; without them,
downtown would be a drag. We
can't have an active, vibrant
downtown unless we provide
adequate parking."
But critics of the plan re-
mained unconvinced. They
charged that in many city park-
ing areas there is no parking
shortage, that a special assdss-
rhent might succeed only in
driving out the marginally suc-
cessful business owner, and that
public facilities like the Univer-
sity and the federal government
are being given a "free ride"
because of their tax exempt
status.
Council heard the arguments,
but made no decision on the
plan last night.

Azad described Iran as an
economic and military tool of
the United States, saying, "The
Shah with all his so-called pow-
er is a pawn of the U. S. multi-
national corporations and has
maintained loyalty to his mas-1
ters."
HE ADDED that Iran, since
the 1952 poup has served as a
military base for -"U. S. imper-
ialism" and has been used as
a springboard for American ac-
tivities in the region.
DePue, called the Iranian
Shah a "second generation
gangster" and characterized
the U. S. role in Iran as part
of a "hand-in-glove relation-

"I don't even think he knows#

FERENCY SAID he has run
for office mainly to get his
ideas across and would not rule
out a candidacy in the future.
But he declined to pinpoint the
office he would aim for in 1978.
"I'll look at the scene as it
unfolds and see if a candidacy
makes sense," he said.

HE ADDED that by discour-
aging third parties from enter-
ing the election year fray, the
new campaign laws impinge on
yet another source of political
conflict and fanfare.
"There is a risk that cam-
paign reform tends to be sup-
portive of the present system,"
he admitted. "But the alterna-
tive is no eform."
Still, Kimberling emphasized
that there is some' room for
third parties to operate under
the election laws.
"GEORGE WALLACE for in-
stahce, would have qualified as
a major party candidate in
1968," he said.
Kimberling said there is no
way to determine who was hurt
more by the elections laws dur-
ing the 1976 presidential cam-
paign - President Ford or Jim-
my Carter.

Had the election been conduct-
ed under the lax rules which
governed the 1972 race, Ford
might have gained an economic
advantage over Carter as the
beneficiary of sizeable corpor-
ate campaign pledges, he
claimed.
ALTHOUGH cautioning that
the relationship between the
Republican party and corporate
business has been mythologized,
Kimberling noted that "in this
case, Ford had the support of
the fuel-related businesses."
On the other hand, the fed-
eral election laws may have
aided Ford by preventing his
nemesis in the primaries, Ron-
ald Reagan, from splitting away
from the party and drawing Re-
publican votes along with him.
Kimberling added that con-
tributions "may have wormed
their way into some election
committee funds, regardless of
the stringent federal laws.
"We still haven't knocked out
the Gulf Oil contribution syn-
drome," he said.
