The Michigan Daily-Tuesday, October 13, 1981-Page 5 GOP women rally for WASHINGTON (AP)- Three prominent Republican women stood on the steps of the Lin- coln Memorial yesterday and attacked President Reagan's position on the Equal Rights Amen- dment. One said it was as though Lincoln had proposed freeing the slaves "plantation by plan- tation," Betty Ford, the former first lady, Helen Milliken, wife of Gov. William Milliken, and Mary Crisp, former co-chairman of the Republican National Committee, denounced the piecemeal state-by-state and law-by-law ap- proach advocated by Reagan, who has said he believes in "the E and the R but not the A" of ERA. "THE GREAT Emanicpator did not free the slaves plantation by plantation," said Milliken. "We cannot achieve equality for women one state at a time." Before a crowd estimated by National Park Service police at 1,000, the three women spoke at a rally sponsored by the National Organization for Women. Forming a backdrop were 14 women, men and children who held aloft a long, green banner bearing the words of the proposed amendment: "Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex." ER A Lady Bird Johnson, another speaker, refrained from direct criticism of Reagan, but said "all the womenfolk and all the menfolk" in her family supported the amendment. The rally occurred with less than nine months remaining under Congress' deadline for winning approval of the three more states required for the proposed amendment to become part of the Constitution. . . . . . . ..f...x........ n...r.... ..... .... ......... ...................'..... ..:-:": .......... ::?:*:...: :} ii;::n.," ...r... . 1..4.}r C.

THURSDAY IS LADIES NIGHT 114 East Washington Downtown Ann Arbor 6+65-3231 10 European natio6ns, to meet today on PLO LONDON (AP)- Foreign ministers from Western Europe and Southeast Asia meet in London today and tomorrow for talks expected to center on the Mideast, Afghanistan, Poland, and Cambodia. Ministers from the 10-nation European Economic Community, who meet four times a year, begin separate sessions today. AN OFFICIAL preparing for the Common Market ministerial meeting said, "We will be' assessing the prospects= for Mideast peace following the death of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat." Sadat was killed last Tuesday during a military parade in Cairo. The officials, some of whom attended Sadat's funeral Saturday and held discussions with Egyptian authorities, will assess the security situation in Egypt and the Mideast, and hopes for continuation of the peace process with Israel. THE COMMON MARKET countries moved toward an active role in the Mideast at a Venice meeting in June 1980. A declaration published then called for agreement on the right of Israel to exist and, con- tingent upon this, inclusion of the Palestine Liberation Organization in peace negotiations. The United States, however, has refused so far to deal with the PLO, contending it is essentially a terrorist organization. A formal Common Market initiative has been delayed by this and other factors and at present appears to be moribund. The ministers are also expected to discuss a Com- mon Market resolution last June that called for an in- ternational conference on the Afghanistan civil war.

Carter will support Reagan in lobby for sale of AWACS WASHINGTON (UPI) - Former President Jimmy Carter, saying the Reagan administration should play a stronger role in the Middle East, told reporters yesterday will lobby senators in support of the .sale of AWACS to Saudi Arabia. Carter and his wife arrived by private plane at National Airport for a three-day trip on their first planned visit to Washington since leaving office almost nine Mionths ago. HE IMMEDIATELY released the text of a letter urging senators to sup- port President Reagan's proposed ar- ms sale to the Saudis, including five controversial Airborne Warning and Control System aircraft. Carter signed the deal negotiated during his presidency.' Carter also repeated .his statement that he used with former President Gerald Ford Saturday that the United States would have to deal with the Palestine Liberation Organization sooner or later to achieve peace in the Middle East. But he added this could only come when the PLO recognizes Israel's right to exist. STANDING across from the White House at 716 Jackson Place, a federal residence maintained for former presidents, Carter came close to criticizing the Reagan administration's efforts in the Middle East and hinted he may criticize its domestic policies before he leaves for home tomorrow. "I think both Israel and Egypt would like to see the United States play a major role in bringing the two countries together, in acting as a mediator, in putting forward proposals to break deadlocks and providing an avenue by which Israel and Egypt can change some of their present positions and seek compromises," Carter said.
