However, the legislation
faces further controversy in the
House and could run afoul of a
veto by President Ford.
Ford recommended that Con-

with the Supreme Court's de-

tion of other changes in the 1974

offered no excuses yesterday
for the NorthCarolina defeat,
tbut said he was unhappy with
it, the first an incumbent presi-
dent has suffered in a primary
since 1968. The loss was also
his first in a 25 year politicalI
career.4
"It's never good to come in
second," Ford told a group of
Republican leaders at the White
House.
Hours before his victory, Rea-
gan's staff announced that he
would curtail campaigning in
Wisconsin in order to concen-
trate on a planned nationally
televised speech. No topic has
beenannounced, although he is
expected to use the time to
pursue his attacks on the Pres-
ident.
Reagan has charged that Ford
is too soft on the Soviet Union
and is letting U.S. military su-
periority slip. Reagan is also
expected to repeat his call for
a balanced budget.

But Hotchkiss said without
state funding, he won't allowj
the primary.
"The legislature has been
considering the matter of fund-
ing for six months, but has tak-
en no action," Hotchkiss said.
"Really what it amounted to
was that the local governments
were lulled into a false sense of
security that the state is fund-
ing the election, but now they
are staring at a $2.5 million bill
and they're frantic."
BELCHER, HANKS:
Candidates vie in 5th

(Contlnued rom Page 1) E
Belcher, who enjoyed a com-
fortable victory in 1972, feels
differently.
"Let's put it this way," he
said. "If I were betting on it,
I 'wouldn't bet against myself."
BELCHER is running an ex-
pensive campaign compared to
the Democrat, although he said1
he is spending "about $1,0001
less" than he did in his success-
ful 1972 campaign.
But, for Hanks, "Money is a}
big problem."
"People in our ward have
lost so many times that we
don't have any big money or
party support. Everybody is en-}
couraging, but they're just

He was an unsuccessful candi-
date for mayor in 1971, and has
lived in Ann Arbor for 17 years.
THE 36-YEAR-OLD Hanks has
been active in various com-
munity projects in the Fifth
Ward, including Project Neigh-
borhood and Project Change.
She has lived in Ann Arbor for
six years.

split on the door-todoor voter
registration ballot proposal.
"I'm for door-to-door," said
Hanks. "It seems to me that the
city is here to help the people,"
she" added, and pointed out that
since the registrars are volun-
teers it incurs no extra cost to
the city.
But Belcher said he was "very
upset" about the system, and
that he is opposed to it because
"when citizens vote something:
down (as they did last year)!
t'hey must do it for some rea-
son."
HE ALSO CITED alleged
abuses in this year's registra-I
tion, specifically in the Fourth
Ward, charging that, "We have
some people who had been reg-
istered and given campaign
material at the same time."
"The registrar should be ab-
solutely non-partisan," he add-
ed, noting that he supported the,
idea of door-to-door providing
that ,penalties are attached to'
abuses.
Belcher said he supports the;
third ballot proposal, a 1-milli
property tax for roads. Hanks,
however, opposes the measure,
claiming it is not "comprehen-
sive enough"
Hanks said she decided to en-
ter the race because, "Initially
there was a real need for some-
body to run who was a com-
munity and not a political per-
son. And we sort of wanted to
run a woman.
"People in the Fifth Ward feel
helpless in terms of having any-
thing to say on the City Council
(they) feel they don't have
anyone to talk to, don't feel any-
one's listening," she added.
"W A Y N E County offic-
ials said the cost to that county
alone would be $311,000. Others
are saying they'd have to cut
fire and police and other needed
services to pay for the elec-
tion, even though nobody is
e I e c t e d. That's why they
claim it's unconstitutional."
Hotchkiss said he asked rep-
resentatives from both major
parties if they were willing to
help finance the election, and
they answered no.
Hie ordered all county, town-
ship and city clerks to stop
any preparation for the elec-
tion, other than accepting nomi-
nating petitions for delegates.
The judge said that, if the
primary is banned, the delegate
nominations filed with local
election officials could be used
for some other form of delegate
selection.
