54 The Michigan Daily-Tuesday, March 3, 1981-Page 7 Reagan lashes out at interest groups, explains city aid cuts From AP and UPI WASHINGTON - President Reagan assailed yesterday the special interest groups which stand in the way of his economic recovery program and pleaded with urban leaders to realize that "the only power needed to restore America's strength is will power." In his first formal speech since he ad- vanced his budget and tax-cutting plan to Congress on Feb. 18, Reagan com- plained to the National League of Cities that a "political gauntlet of interest groups" threatens to dismantle it. While some have raised legitimate concerns, he said, "I'm finding it in- creasingly difficult not to call some of them selfish interest groups." THE PRESIDENT acknowledged that cities would suffer their share of cuts. But he declared that "We are all in the same boat, and we have to get the engines started before the boat goes over the falls." Reagan assured the urban leaders that he would preserve the "function" of the Urban Development Action Grants Program, which formed the centerpiece of Jimmy Carter's urban policy and quickly became a favorite of the nation's mayors. The program will be combined with the Community Development Grant program, which receives federal funds for a broader base of community projects, if Reagan's plans pass Congress. FEDERAL FUNDS for the combined programs will be "at a slightly smaller amount than before," Reagan said, ad- ding that the reduction "will be largely covered by the elimination of ad- ministrative overhead." The "slightly smaller amount" is $4.2 billion, a cut of $584 million from the Carter administration budget. And while the recovery plan calls for reducing federal subsidies to cities, Reagan said, he had tried to "cushion the budget blows" by making block grants to local governments, "thus reducing wasteful federal ad- ministrative overhead and giving local governments more flexibility and con- trol." THE PRESIDENT drew polite ap- plause from the audience of several thousand representatives of cities and towns, expecially when he attacked the "federal Goliath - unleashed and un- controlled." Reaganinoted there has been some congressional opposition to his call for a three-year, 30-percent tax cut. "Nevertheless," he said, "the real threat to recovery comes from those who will oppose only a small part of the program while supporting the overall effort. Needless to say, the small por- tion these parochial groups oppose. always deals with cuts that affect them directly. Those cuts they oppose. They favor cutting everybody else's subsidy as an important step in ending inflation and getting the country moving again." Reagan repeatedly referred to the dangers of inaction. "We must realize that the economic crisis confronting America is not the result of a natural disaster or a catastrophe beyond our control," he said. "Inflation, unemployment - all of it - was basically caused by decisions that we as a people made."

(AP) - Six American Nazis and supporters were arrested yesterday on charges of con- spiring to stage a series of terrorist at- tacks in the event that a group of Ku Klux Klansmen and Nazis was found guilty of murdering five leftist demon- strators. A federal indictment charged the six .With conspiring to blow up a lar-ge petroleum storage facility, a chemical 1feitilizer plant, a shopping mall and part of downtown Greensboro with dynamite and a napalm-type material. AMONG THE TARGETS of the oalleged conspiracy was the Guilford 'County Courthouse and a large gasoline ,,tank farm on Interstate 48 west of Greensboro, said a courthouse source who asked not to be identified. The indictment, returned yesterday byza federal grand jury in Asheville, accused the six of planning to put the napalm-type gelatin explosives in 55- gallon barrels "in crowded areas of the city and remotely . .. detonate them at 4 p.m. so as to maximize the destruc- tive effect." Baker may seek Senate seat in '82 Regent Deane Baker (R-Ann Arbor) announced he is considering a bid for the U.S. Senate next year. Baker, who ran unsuccessfully for Senate in 1976, said yesterday he was encouraged by his strong showing in last November's Regental election. Aside from the Presidential race, Baker was the top vote-getter in the state. Two other Republicans have already, announced their interest in the seat now held by Sen. Don Riegle (D-Michigan). Baker will not formally announce his candidacy until a study of his popularity within the party and around the state has been completed. 4 V Those charged with one count of con- spiracy were Frank Lee Braswell, 49, of Penland and his wife, Patsy, 32; and four Winston-Salem men, Raeford Melano Caudle, 38, Joseph Gorrell Pierce, 28, Roger Allen Pierce, 25, and James Christopher Talbert, 30. THE BRASWELLS were being taken to Asheville for an appearance before a federal magistrate, and the others were to be brought to Greensboro to appear before a magistrate, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office said in Ash- ville. The arrests stemmed from an in- vestigation by agents of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, the in- dictment said. The grand jury charged that the at- tacks, which never were carried out, were planned "in response to and in retaliation for an anticipated guilty verdict in the Greensboro murder trial" of six Klansmen and Nazis.
