a Page 2-Thursday, April 17, 1980-The Michigan Daily Ford urges tax aid for industry ~ - (Continued from Page 1) such a disaster in the 1920s and 30s unless there is deliberate dumping." Replying to questions at a morning press conference, Ford repeated that he would support the Republican par- ty's nominee in 1980. He has so far withheld an endorsement of either Ronald Reagan, George Bush, or John Anderson. "I would hope that through discussions with the Republican nominee that I would have some input into the next administration. And if I were satisfied with those discussions, I would become more enthusiastic," Ford said. He acknowledged that, Reagan would likely be that nominee, and that President Carter would likely win the Democratic nomination. Ford rapped a possible third party bid by Anderson. An independent An- derson on the November ballot "could have the election thrown into the House of Representatives where the politicians, and not the people, would U. ii "Ptiiiiiii" 4CO Needsa ride out of town? Check the at I classifieds under transportation elect a president," he said. Students who attended classes Ford taught later in the day reported that he advocated eliminating the electoral college in order to avoid the problems third party candidacies present. They also said he proposed regional primaries instead of holding primaries state by state. In an 11:00 a.m. lecture to about 1,100 students in Rackham Auditorium, Ford commented that John Anderson "is not a flaming liberal as some would have us believe." At yesterday's press conference Ford attacked President Carter's economic and energy policies. He called Carter's claim that OPEC oil price increases were responsible for inflation "hogwash." "At the most, out of the 18 per cent (rate of) inflation, the increase due to OPEC prices would be two to three per cent. Ford blamed the lack of a national energy policy on Congress, but he slammed the Carter administration for not providing leadership in energy con- servation. Ford said he did not know the specifics of cuts proposed by Carter in federal scholarship and grant programs for students. (Carter has proposed raising interest rates on federal loans to students and increasing only slightly the amount of money available next year for grants to needy students.) (The Senate is considering a bill that would raise interest rates slightly, while a House bill would maintain loan programs as they are; both houses would up the government's spending on grants.) "Students wouldn't need anywhere nbar as much money if students didn't have 18 per cent inflation," Ford said. Students in Ford's classes yesterday said he lectured much like any other professor would, although they said he at times injected jabs at the Carter ad- ministration into response to questions. "I think I do have a higher opinion of him than I did. I think he came across as more articulate than the press has presented him in the past," one LSA senior, who asked not to be identified, said after the lecture in Rackham. lI 'U ONLY 10 A.M. to S P.M.-Sun. 12-5 KING SIZE Thursday Thru Monday April 17th thr2t ed cash Ped Casb & carry -Mattre Heater, Liner, *Watelrbed (alleny WAVFrR T Howard Johnsons Motor Lodge corner of US 23 and Washtenaw Exit No. 37 Finished Frame, Headboard, istal, Lap Seam Ultratherm Deluxe Fill *it VIS4A astr hag . ,..

Exiles arrive from Havana SAN JOSE, Costa Rica-More than 230 Cuban exiles arrived from Havana on two planes yesterday. The arrivals were the first of an estimated 10,800 Cubans who packed themselves into the Peruvian Embassy in Havana the week of April 4. The refugees were taken to the Albergue de Berlin, part of a former prison and now a government guest house. Cuban President Rodrigo Carazo said Tuesday the refugees would be sent later to Peru, which has agreed to take 1,000 of the Cubans. About 300 are expected to stay in Costa Rica. More than half of the refugees have been spoken for. The United States has agreed to take 3,500. Spain said it will take 500, Canada 300, Ecuador 200, Belgium 150, and unspecified numbers will go to Argentina, Brazil, West Germany and Sweden.

Some smaller banks reduced their 18 April16 prime rate to as low as 18 per cent. 20% Economists said the decline, as well as a 17 18- /4e/ drop in other interest rates, confirmed that a recession was under way. .6 The bond market, which had been going down as interest rates went up, staged what 15 was apparently the largest one-day rally in its history.

A MJ J A SO NO J F MA 1979 * 80 Rhodesia to be independent SALISBURY, Rhodesia-Tonight at midnight, Rhodesia will become independent Zimbabwe, as a leader of guerrilla fighters once called the nation's "Enemy No. 1" becomes Prime Minister. Robert Mugabe, the future Prime Minister faces several stiff tasks, such as rebuilding the nation after seven years of war, resettling up to a million war victims and refugees, attracting large amounts of foreign aid and investment, and keeping the skilled and monied white minority from fleeing. Mugabe was appointed Prime Minister after British-supervised elections in February. Turks ambush American ISTANBUL, Turkey-Police sources aid an ambush by a terrorist group yesterday in which an American naval officer and his chauffer were killed might signal a stepped-up drive against Americans by the terrorist group. The three attackers were captured after a gun battle with pursuing police as they fled on a motorcycle. No groups immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, but authorities said they were members of the pro-Moscow group. Seven Americans have been killed by Turkish terrorists during the last year. There are currently about 5,000 Americans, mainly servicemen and their dependents, living in Turkey. Non-stop negotiations on Palestinian autonomy planned WASHINGTON-An agreement to hold non-stop negotiations on the future of 1.2 million Palestinians was reached yesterday after President Carter's back-to-back summit talks with Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin.
