Page 2-Friday, February 20, 1981-The Michigan Daily Student aid in trouble (Continued from Page 1) Budget documents prepared by the Office of Management and Budget outlining plans to economize on student aid have been circulating on Capitol Hill since Reagan took office. By basing the amount students may borrow on their demonstrated financial need and returning a cut-off amount to the level of parental income, the cost of the guaranteed loan program could be reduced by $138 million in fiscal 1981 and by $878 million in fiscal 1982, accor- ding to administration estimates. EVEN BEFORE the president's of- ficial proposals were announced Wed- nesday, University financial aid of- ficials have been busy analyzing student loan appropriation lists in an- ticipation of the impending cuts. However, not all University staff tnembers have reacted to the Reagan, 4dministration's intentions with pessimism. University Economics Prof. Saul Hymans said that Reagan's proposals may tighten up a student loan system Hymans says is now easily abused. LOANS ARE "extraordinarily at- tractive," Hymans said. If parents don't need the money to put the child through school, they can make a lot more money on the market without having to pay interest until the student graduates, he added. Since the ceiling was taken off maximum parental income in 1978, University G.S.L. officials have repor- tedly been flooded with loan requests-the number approved for 1980-81 increased over the previous year by 81 percent. Now that cuts have been proposed in almost every financial aid category, of- ficials are worried that the neediest students may not be able to get the necessary funds. "THEY (NEEDY students) will get some money, but not as much as before," University Office of Financial Aid Associate Director James Zim- merman said. "It's going to be tough." Zimmerman's major concern is the GSL program, which this year supplied 14,000 University students with loans. Fifty-six percent of the students who applied for 1980-81 GSLs did not apply for campus-based aid, which requires a cost-based analysis, according to the GSL mid-year report. NOW THAT those students may be required to go through an analysis for future loans, chances are that students whose parents' income is above $30,000 will not be eligible, according to Finan- cial Aid Officer Carol Raphael. If the current GSL interest rate of 9 percent is allowed to rise to the current commercial rate of about 15 percent, or if the government stops paying interest while students are in school, commer- cial lenders may want to discontinue supplying GSLs, Raphael said. The State Direct Student Loan Program, which provides funds for students who have their applications rejected by commercial institutions, was suspended in November for Spring- Summer 1981, Raphael said. A state-wide increase in applications coupled with soairing interest rates has made it more difficult to sell bonds necessary to fund state student loans, State DSLP Director John Hoekje said when the freeze was issued. 3 killed in plane a r Aft1Ld&JU crash due 4urnj 'nrwnp *ItUEt0 to weather FIRST UNITED METHODIST CHU)RCH 120 S.

N.Y 10001 "Oir 8thbYlear" Join The Daily in Pontiac PONTIAC (UPI) - A twin-engine plane apparently disregarded warnings not to land because of blinding fog, crashed into Oakland-Pontiac Airport guiding lights last night, killing three and scattering debris over 500 yards. Police said at least three persons were killed and others may have been injured in the crash. At least three per- sons were aboard. None were iden- tified. The twin-engine Piper-Cheyenne air- craft crashed at 7:03 p.m. just west of the airport in Waterford Township after airport officials had advised all aircraft not to land because the fog had created zero visibility, officials said. The aircraft struck several 20-foot approach-light towers in the fatal lan- ding attempt. "My understanding is the tower notified the pilot of the foggy weather conditions and they apparently ap- proached the runway anyway," David VanDerveen, manager of aviation said. Airport officials had closed the air- port earlier in the evening after dense fog had created zero visibility. The air- port shuts down if visibility becomes less than a half-mile and the cloud ceiling is lower than 200 feet. The plane debris ignited into flames and burned until airport firefighters reached the scene to douse the blaze. Police said the dense fog caused the plane to strike runway approach light towers. The fog was also hampering the search for other passengers that might have been aboard. Twisted metal and other debris was scattered over the area. Geography hearings set Geography Review Committee Chairman Harvey Brazer said the committee will solicit student and faculty comments at several meetings after the first week in March. Meetings are scheduled for Thursday, March 5 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Friday, Mar- ch 6 from noon until 4 p.m. University students and faculty members interested in speaking on the possibility of geography department elimination should contact Brazer. Those interested in speaking to the committee should contact Brazer's of- fice at 763-0027. Be an angel . Read Ii +atlV! 764-0558 T-SHIRT Ann Arbor's fastest! From 10-800 T-shirts screenprint- cl within 94 hours of order IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and United Press international reports Ford loss for 1980 estimated at $1.5 billion DETROIT - Ford Motor Co. yesterday was expected to report a 1980 loss analysts estimated at approximately $1.5 billion - the largest aniual deficit in American business history. That record will stand only until Chrysler Corp. reports its 1980 losses, which are estimated at $1.7 billion. Chrysler previously held the record for the nation's largest annual corporate loss with its 1979 deficit of $1.1 billion. Auto industry analysts estimated Ford lost about $300 million in the fourth quarter of last year, bringing the domestic auto industry's overall 1980 deficit to $3.9 billion - the worst financial performance in its history. Domestic car sales so far this year have lagged behind last year's levels by nearly 18 percent, forcing automakers to suspend production frequently in costly and inefficient one- or two-week plant closings. Soviets criticize Reagan's defense spending proposal LONDON - President Reagan's economic proposals to Congress, with sweeping spending cuts and a big defense increase, drew angry words from the Soviet Union yesterday, while other nations reacted cautiously. The official Soviet news agency Tass zeroed in on Reagan's proposal to boost defense spending by $169.5 billion through 1986. It accused him of inventing figures on Soviet defense costs "to justify the unbridled increase in American military expenditure" and charged that the new administration was initiating "a new sharp turn in the arms race." Canadian Finance Minister Al an MacEachen said it was too early to tell what effect the budget will have on Canada. Officials of Persian Gulf nations and private businessmen there reacted favorably, but some dismissed his plan as too optimistic. There was specific criticism for Reagan's proposals to cut foreign aid - he wants the 1982 budget reduced 26 percent from $7.2 billion to $5.4 billion. Polish strikes may end WARSAW, Poland - After months of turmoil, Poland was nearly strike- free yesterday as farmers in a remote mountain village near the Soviet bor- der were expected to approve an agreement ending the nation's last known labor protest. A spokesman for the Gdansk headquarters of the independent trade union Solidarity said settlement of farmer protests in southeastern Poland could finally end nationwide strikes that started in August. Meanwhile, farmers occupying a headquarters building of the old, gover- nment-run union in Rzeszow said they would leave as soon as an agreement they signed early yesterday was approved by some 20 farmers holding a sit- in at Solidarity offices in UstrzykI Dolne, a remote village of some 5,000 people tucked in a mountain valleyeight miles from the Soviet border. Salvador leftists say U.S. planning to crush revolution SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador - Leftist leaders yesterday charged that 180 U.S. military advisers are masterminding a counter-insurgency plan to "cut off the head of the leftist and intellectual sectors in El Salvador." The Salvadoran junta and U.S. Embassy sources denied the accusation. The Democratic Revolutionary Front, a coalition of leftists who want to set up a Marxist government, claimed in a communique to news media that the "shameful aid from Washington" had "obliged the junta to turn schools into barracks." The left said a small school 2 miles northwest of the capital had been tur- ned into a barracks for the advisers. The accusation came as a prestigious Brazilian newspaper, Jornal do Brasil, said the Reagan administration's policy in El Salvador would bring about a "resuscitation of the left" in Latin America. Pope /speaks to Filipinos on abortion, contraception CEBU CITY, Philippines - Pope John Paul II, hailed by more than 1 million Filipinos yesterday in this cradle of East Asian Christianity, con- demned casual sex, upheld priestly celibacy, and strongly reaffirmed a Roman Catholic Church ban on artificial birth control, divorce, abortion and polygamy. "I owe it to my apostolic office. . . to reiterate vigorously her condem- nation of artificial contraception and abortion," he said. The Phillipines, Asia's only predominately Catholic nation, does not recognize divorce and bans abortion. It was the pope's most comprehensive statement on family issues since the Roman Catholic bishops discussed the subject in a month-long Vatican synod last autumn. On Friday, the pope's schedule calls for a tour of three cities - first to the southern city of Davao where he will meet Moslem representatives, then to Bacolod to address sugar plantation workers, and finally to Iloilo City.

S S S S I HAVE A GREAT VACATION See you March 3 10 2"WHY DO THE HEATHEN RAGE?" Psalms 2:1 and Acts 4:.25 "Webster says a heathen is one who 'does not believe in The God of The Bible.' This definition fits in with what God says in this Psalm: 'The kings of the earth - and the rulers,' and 'the people (who) imagine a vain thing,' and support them as they 'take council together, against The Lord, and His Anointed."' Does a Supreme Court "believe in the God of The Bible" if they reject this Book for our public schools and children? Surely the right answer is, NO! Does a Supreme Court believe in "The Lord's Anointed, The Lord Jesus Christ," when they reject the Prayer He taught His disciples, for our schools and children? Surely the right answer is, NO! Does a President, a Senator, a Congress- man, a Governor, a Judge, etc. "believe in The God of The Bible, and His Anointed Jesus Christ" if they support .L . . . ..c. - A . .. 1 . n m . - a--. . Christ!" We should be careful about "passing the buck" of all responsibility to those in authority over us! Thus saith The Lord: "For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. But God is the judge; He putteth down one, and setteth up another." Psalm 75:6, 7. Generally, The Scriptures reveal that the kind of rulers God puts over men are symbolic of the over-all national character and integrity, or the lack of such. In other words, God usually puts over us authorities, representing a cross-section of the national conscience. Like with the individual, this may become "seared as with a hot iron." An indication of the condition of the national conscience is revealed by our attitude towards lawlessness, crime, t.M...-- mrA . rn . a rao. ati , .. a t - - fr a 0 Editor-in-chief....................SARA ANSPACH Managing Editor ..............JULIE ENGEBRECHT University Editor .................
