(AP) - The New Jersey Supreme Court yesterday delayed the indefinite jail term of New York Times reporter Myron Farber to allow his attorneys to appeal a contem- pt conviction to the nation's highest City group to lure firms (Continued from Pae 3) relocate the residents. Latta also criticized the prospect of the EDC negotiating with developers and companies in private, and offering concessions to compete with other cities, exchanges which Council and the public would not be aware when the plans are brought before them. "We'll never know whether they gave up the least amount possible," Latta said. BUT FRENZA maintained that everything wi lbe public. The needefor eEDC is also a subject of controversy.~ Frenza said the motivation for the EDC is "to develo in- centives to attract the right kind of company (to Ann Arbor) witheut in- curring liability on the city." However, Frenza also said the community "has been very specific about the type of business" it desires for immigration. Latta said the EDC will have no more powers than Council already has, the tax base will not be greatly bolstered, and the city is already selective about the type of concerns allowed to move here. He said the city can already offer revenue bonds, which it did for Mer- cedes-Benz. He asked, "If you've already got people knocking at your front door, then why set up free drinks on your front porch?" FRENZA SAID THE city will im- prove its tax-base by $50-60,000 per year. Latta said Frenza must have been lying when he told Council he had no projects promised or knew of any awaiting the EDC advantages-if Frenza could estimate the additonal revenues. Latta asked, "How does he know that unless he already-knows the size of the projects coming in?" Frenza estimates apply to $100,000- $120,000 bond issuances for the generation of that amount of property tax revenue, according to the City Assessor's Office. Latta said he is concerned that Mayor Louis Belcher might "stack" the ap- pointed corporation board members. Belcher was unavailable for comment. The EDC act specifies that any added bond revenue the corporation receives shall be turned over to the citybut Lat- ta said the EDC's money can be devoted, to feasibility studies, site acquiiV , a'nd additional staff s. ays Farber court. Farber, who was cited for civil and criminal contempt for refusing to turn over his notes in the murder trial of a New Jersey doctor, was allowed to remain free pending appeal of the civil charges to the U.S. Supreme Court. THE NEW JERSEY court voted 6-0 to give Farber's attorneys until noon Friday to apply to the U.S. Supreme Court for a stay of sentencing. The court decided by a 5-1 vote not to hold a hearing on whether to delay Far- ber's sentencing. It refused by the same vote to consider criminal charges against Farber. One justice did not par- ticipate. Farber and The New York Times Co. were convicted Monday of criminal and civil contempt by Superior Court Judge jail term for appeal Theodore Trautwein. FARBER WAS ordered jailed in- definitely and The Times was heavily fined for defying a court order to surrender files in the so-called Dr. X case. State Supreme Court Justice Morris Pashman, who freed Farber after he had served seven hours in jail Monday, cast the only dissenting vote yesterday. "I'm ready to go in if I have to," Far- ber told reporters yesterday as he left the Bergen County jail with attorney Eugene Scheiman. "I HAVE A very strong feeling I belong on the other side of those mikes and with the writing press." In a clash between the constitutional DOIT BY MAIL guarantees of a free press and the right to a fair trial, Trautwein ordered Far- ber jailed until he turned over his notes on Dr. Mario Jascalevich, the surgeon accused of murdering five hospital patients with the muscle relaxant curare 12 years ago. While the Supreme Court decided if Farber should remain free, trial Judge William Arnold postponed proceedings in the murder trial yesterday to await the ruling. LATER YESTERDAY, Arnold denied a defense request that the trial be halted until the court received Far- ber's notes for review. Defense attor- ney Henry Furst was to appeal Arnold's ruling to the Appellate Division of Superior Court in Newark. LEAVE BLANK Yes, I would like to subscribe to THE MICHIGAN DAILY.
