Re-elect By DIANE LEVICK The bumper sticker on the sheriff's department cruiser said "Re-elect Doug Harvey." The bumper stickers on other sheriff's cars read the same. Unfair? Un- ethical? Illegal? "There's no law against it," says Sheriff Douglas Harvey. "It's being done all over the United States. Some sheriffs even have their names painted on county cars." Asked if he thinks putting campaign stickers on county cruisers is fair to his opponent in the August Democratic pri- mary, Fred Postill, Harvey answers, "Why sure!" Washtenaw County Clerk Robert Harrison knows of no law making the stickers on the cars illegal. "Most of the time," Har- rison explains, "this kind of thing must be chalked off to very bad judgment. It begins to smack of the spoils system." The county's prosecuting attorney, Wil- liam Delhey, says, "I don't know of any Harvey statute prohibiting this. If I were run- ning, I wouldn't do it." "Legality and propriety are two different things. This is a matter of propriety." James Chapman of the elections division of the Michigan Department of State says that he "can't find anything against the practice" of putting campaign stickers on police cars. "I suppose they can do it," he concludes. Charles Hackney of the state affairs di- vision corroborated Chapman's report but speculated that the civil service commis- sion might have some say over the bumper stickers. Washtenaw County sheriff's deputies, however, do not come under any civil service regulations. Instead, they are union- ized by the Teamsters. Postill says that Harvey instructed one of his deputies to paste the campaign stickers on all the county cruisers on May See HARVEY, Page 7 Se Mr1Jir igan &tihj Vol. LXXXII, No. 15-S Ann Arbor, Michigan-Wednesday, May 31, 1972 Ten Cents Twelve Pages Nixon in Iran after Moscow summit meet sFrom Wire Service Reports TEHRAN, Iran-President Nixon was greeted by a large and enthusiastic crowd yesterday as he began his trip homeward from the summit meetings in Moscow.

The historic pact agrees to curb both offensive and defen- sive missiles. The treaty, which still requires Senate confirma- tion, would limit to 300 the number of defensive anti-ballis- tic missile launchers in each country. The launchers could be situated at only two sites. A second part of the accord would freeze land and sea-based offensive missiles at their pres- ent level which does not require Senate confirmation.
