From Wire Service Reports
Backers of Michigan's abortion
law reform have launched a cam-
paign to bring the controversial
issue before Michigan voters byF
the 1972aPresidential election.
The action by Sens. Gilbert
Bursley R-Ann Arbor), and John
McCauley, (D-Grosse Islet, all

approval of the reform bill passed
by the State Senate last March.
Bursley said the main questin
Is whether to seek a constitution-
al amendment, initiative petition
to the Legislature or both. Prr-
liminary drafts of a proposed pet-
tition are being reviewed now by
lawyers, he said.
Bursley also said that a peti-
tion drive to gain the 300,000-
signatures necessary to put abor-
tion on the ballot will begin
within two or three weeks.
But it is possible that new de-
velopments could force a change
in legislative action before fall.
One possibility being talked
about was Senate action to pass
a new bill or amend an appro-
priate bill from either the hoise
or Senate.
Sen. Richard Allen. (R-tthaca)
pledged as much Tuesday in a
floor speech asking teat the bill
be let out of the House Commit-

BERKELEY VOTE
Law firm proposition
wins student approval

By JIM IRWIN
Financing of a nonprofit law
firm to deal with public interest
issues, such as consumer pro-
tection and industrial pollution,
has been approved by students at
the University -of California at
Berkeley.
Over 4,000 students voted to
assess themselves $1.50 a quarter
to finance the law firm, but the
plan still needs approval of the
university's regents,
The financing plan would net
an estimated $100,000 for the
firm called Citizens-Act on Law
Advocates or CAL Advocates.
Initial activity to start the firm
has already been funded by con-
tributions, including approxi-
mately $1,500 from Ralph Nader. -
Only 6,145 of Berkeley's 28,000
students voted, with 4,352 in fav-
or and 1,793 opposed.
Ray Bourhis, a law student who
conceived the idea, predicted ap-
proval by the regents and said
the fee plan is voluntary and
those against it do not have to
contribute.
According to Bourhis, CAL
Advocates will hire five to seven
full-time lawyers, at $10,000 to
$12,000 annually, to conduct in-
vestigations and bring legal ac-
tion where feasible.
Pollution, automobile insur-
ance and advertising practices
are among the fields that will re-
ceive the greatest attention, he
said.
He added that eomplainis
would first be taken to proper
state or federal agencies and
then to courts if no relief was
obtained.
Bourhis said that eventually it

is hoped that attorney fees or
damages assessed in cases won
by CAL Advocates will supplant
support proyided by the student
assessments.
Looking into the future, Bour-
his said, "What we're talking
about is a huge network of pub-
lic interest law firms to provide
representation for a group of
people never before given repre-
sentation in court in seeking in-
junctive relief-the general pub-
lie.
A similar firm has already
been set up at the University of
California at Los Angeles and
another proposed for San Jose
State College and the University
of Santa Clara combined. Bour-
his said discussions are also go-
ing on with student groups at
Yale and New York University.
'I think this vote demnstrates
that students are beginning to
realize there are some very spe-
cific ways they can be effective
in promoting social change,"
Bourheis commented.
