Page Two THE MICHIGAN DAILY Thursday, July 24, 1975 In the news today ... International OTTAWA, Ontario--Canada has closed its east coast ports to Soviet fishing vessels be- cause of alleged overfishing in Canadian wa- ters; the government announced yesterday. A Canadian official said the move, which will take effect July 28, was necessary after fail- ure of diplomatic efforts to get the Soviets to adhere to quotas set by an international com- mission. "It will be a very serious inconven- ience to them," the official said; but the Ca- nadian agent for the Soviet fishing fleet called the action "a futile gesture that will hurt no- body but ourselves." National MIAMI BEACH, Fla.-Representatives of the International Longshoreman's Association (ILA) voted yesterday to refuse to load American grain aboard ships bound for the Soviet Union, but they gave union officials the power to lift the ban. "If we do stop it -and I hope we won't have to-we'll have the support we need," said ILA President Thom- as Gleason. "We don't just want to kill the farmer out. We want to see the government export pro- duce. But we want assurances that our bro- thers are protected." Meantime, Agriculture Department officials said the Russians have ended their $1.3 billion grain buying spree but may start shopping again later this year. Over the past few weeks the USSR has purchased some 9.8 million metric tons of wheat, corn and barley. WASHINGTON-President Ford urged the Senate yesterday to rewrite the 1965 Voting Rights Act to make it apply equally in all 50 states, a plan previously rejected by the Sen- ate. In a letter read by Democratic leader Mike Mansfield shortly after the Senate voted to limit debate time on a House-possed bill, Ford noted that the bill's provisions for pro- tecting voting rights of Spanish-Americans and other language minorities would expand the act's special restrictions to an additional eight states. "What is right for 15 states is right for 50 states," Ford said. The House bill, like the original law, would keep the primary applica- tion of the act on seven Southern states. RALEIGH, N.C.-Five blacks and seven whites were empaneled as jurors yesterday in the trial of Joan Little, a black woman ac- cused of killing a white guard in a rural North Carolina jail. The panel was seated after 113 prospective jurors were considered during eight days of jury selection. Four alter- nates remain to be chosen. Eight women and four men, many of them young, were chosen to decide whether -Little stabbed the 62-year- old night jailer in self-defense or, as the state- contends, she murdered the man as part of an escape plot. Four of the jurors expressed the opinion on the stand that Little was inno- cent even though they said they would base their ultimate decision on the evidence. 0 State LANSING-House-passed legislation to re- peal the Fair Trade Act in Michigan was ap- proved by the Senate Agriculture and Con- sumers Committee yesterday in a 3-0 vote. The proposal has the support of Governor Mil- liken, the attorney general and several con- sumer groups and was reported out of com- mittee despite opposition from hardware deal- ers and manufacturers. The Fair Trade law, which originally was intended to protect small businesses from be- ing undersold by chain stores, prohibits all retailers from selling goods below manufac- turers' fixed prices. Said State representa- tive Perry Bullard of Ann Arbor: "This was a Depression-era act that hasn't accomplished anything but to allow big manufacturers to engage in price-fixing at the expense of con- sumers." Bullard is the sponsor of the re- pealer. DETROIT-The pace of new car sales in mid-July was the highest for a mid-month period since -une 1974, topping last year's de- pressed figures by # per cent, U. S. automak- ers reported yesterday. It was the first time this model year that sales in a 10-day period ran ahead of those for the comparable 1974 span. Happenings ...
