State lawmakers pass M lliken 'S The Michigan Daily-Thursday; October 1, 1981- Page 3 British Labor Party votes to ban missles budget C LANSING (UPI)- Acting with less than five hours left in the fiscal year, * legislators yesterday approved Gov. William Milliken's executive budget cutting -order enabling the state to cover a $135 million year-end deficit. Under the order, the University will absorb a cut in state appropriations of $4 million rather than the previously anticipated $6 million. THE 17-1 VOTE by the House Ap- * propriations Committee and 7-2 ballot by its Senate counterpart capped a day marked by a bitter partisan battle which help up action on the document until early evening. The vote, which came just four and a half hours before a midnight deadline, put the final pieces into place for the balanced budget required by state Con- stitution at the end of the fiscal year. HAD THE BUDGET not been balan- ced, the state would not have been able to smake $500 million in revenue sharing, school aid and other paymen- .utorder ts. State government would have even- tually ground to a halt. Milliken's order was his second at- tempt to cover the deficit. Lawmakers two weeks ago rejected his first proposal because of portions cutting $51 million from the school aid, college and university and community college budgets. House Democrats, lead by Speaker Bobby Crim, held up a measure raiding a railroad fund to help balance the budget because of Milliken's refusal to slash funds for the Michigan State University Agricultural Extension Station. Crim called the governor's refusal to cut the MSU money "just ridiculous" adding he could not justify protecting agriculture when areas like mental health, education and social services were being slashed. Republican lawmakers, however, argued the state can ill afford to cut funds that aid one of Michigan's few healthy industries. BRIGHTON, England (AP) - The opposition Labor Party voted yesterday for unilateral nuclear disarmament, but rejected a proposal that Britain quit NATO. Labor defense spokesman Brynmor John, a moderate on the nuclear disar- mament issue, said, "It's going to be a hard vote to live with." PARTY OFFICIALS said the resolution carried by 4.59 million votes to 2.31 million. Votes at Labor con- ferences are counted in millions in ac- cordance with the membership that trade union leaders represent. The attempt by radicals to commit a Labor government to withdrawing from NATO and expelling the ap- proximately 25,000 U.S. military per- sonnel stationed in Britain was defeated by 5.2 million votes to 1.6 million. Although the disarmament resolution failed to achieve the two-thirds majority required to make conference votes automatically part of Labor's campaign platform, the vote marked the party's most unequivocal stance yet for a policy that would gravely affect Britain's role in NATO and reverse the Conservative government's decision to accept U.S. nuclear Cruise missiles. IT WAS THE second successive year that a Labor Party's annual conference voted for unilateral disarmament, and Support the March of Dimes MM hDEFECTS MUNDAI in the view of many observers, any at- tempt to drop it from Labor's next elec- tion manifesto would risk a serious par, ty split. Unilateral nuclear disarmament would mean scrapping Britain's Polaris nuclear submarines, banning the Cruise missiles which Mrs. That cher has agreed to accept, and can+ celing her controversial decision to buy the U.S. Trident missile system. Cruise and Pershing 11 medium= range missiles are due to be deployed in five West European countries begin= ning in 1983 in response to the Soviet buildup of medium-range strategic weapons targeted at Western Europe.' "WE CAN stay in NATO and work out a new relationship," said Joan Leston, a member of the party's policy forming National Executive Committee. She noted that Norway, Denmark; and Canada are NATO members who reject nuclear weapons on their soil.

It will be followed by a 10 percent reduction '~beginning next July, and a final 10 per- cent cut effective July 1, 1983. AN INDIVIDUAL'S initial tax savings can be determined by deduc- * ting 5 percent from the "federal withholding" figure on weekly paychecks. Another provision of the new income tax law, the scheduled 10 percen reduction in the "marriage penalty, will not benefit married taxpayers unt next January. It is designed to cut th higher tax paid by working couple compared to two single people wit similar income. Another, more lucrative ta break-the tax-exempt All-Savers cer tificate-alsobecomes available today The new one-year certificates, on sal( at banks and savings and loan firm from Oct. 1 through Dec. 31, 1982, allow taxpayers to invest their money an collect up to $1000 of interest tax-fre per person or $2,000 per joint return. it il e s h x e s Daily Photo by KIM HILL The party's over Yesterday was the last day students were allowed to drop or add classes without additional fees, instructor's permission, or ugly "W"s blemishing their records.

"I would like to assure the subcom- mittee the 'Comrnluity Services Ad- ministration is prepared to shut its doors at close'of-business today,"-direc- tor Dwight Ink told the House Education and Labor subcommittee on human resources. THE DEMOCRATS responded emotionally to Ink's largely technical and managerial testimony. The War on Poverty was the corner- stone of Johnson's Great Society. The already slimmed-down agency and its predecessor, the Office of Economic Opportunity, providedegrants to the states to help local community action agencies programs. The funding is being sliced from $521 million for 1981 to about $250 million for the new fiscal year. REP. PAT Williams, (D-Mont.), said ''Americans held their heads highest" when John Kennedy and Lyndon John- son said the nation could try to end poverty, disease, despair and deprivation. "Today is the day that history is' going to record as the day when an American president sounded a retreat," Williams said. "'The legislative actions Congress has been asked to take, and for the most part agreed to take, will demonstrate clearly in the next year or so we have indeed sounded a retreat inthe waraon poverty and have begun a war on the poor," he said. 737 N.
