s iu.. .ii ts. 9 Page 2--Wednesday, January 20, 1982-The Michigan Daily Court rules on teen de From UPI and AP WASHINGTON- The Supreme Court, tackling a difficult death penalty issue, ruled 5-4 yesterday courts must give great weight to a defendant's ' men- tal and emotional background" when imposing the death sentence on a minor. The decision threw out the death sentence of Monty Lee Eddings, who was a 16-year-old runaway when he killed an Oklahoma state trooper with a sawed-off shotgun in 1977. THE CASE marked Justice Sandra Day O'Connor's most important vote since coming to the high court, since her concurrence created the majority lineup. The ruling gives juveniles significant additional protection from the death penalty, but does not rule it out. Justice Lewis Powell, writing for the majority, said tle justices were not reaching the question of whether the Eighth Amendment's b an against cruel and unusual punishment forbids execution of a defendant 16 or under at the time of the crime. BUT POWELL stressed that under guidelines established in previous high court rulings, judges and juries must consider "the characteristics of the per- son who committed the crime." In capital punishment cases involving juveniles, courts must weigh "any relevant mitigating fact" that stems from a defendant's age and personal history, he said. "Youth is more than a chronological fact," Powell wrote. "It is a time and condition of life when a per- th penalty son may be most susceptible to influence and to psychological damage." AS OF LAST May 1,17 of the more than 800 inmates on death rows across the nation were under 18 at the time of 'their crimes. About half the states allow the death penalty for juveniles. The most recent execution of someone under 18 was Joe Henry Johnson, 17, executed in 1961 by Alabama. In a second decision delivered yesterday, the court affirmed on a 4-4 tie vote a lower court ruling that a $1,000 spending limit on independent committees in support of a presidential candidate is a violation of free speech guarantees. The decision opens the door to massive private spending in the 1984 race for president. ..: y rv ": " :.,,.r .. .: . tiv:..." ., ".

'.c' k' : s' .%c ' Ecologists launch rocketsat French nuke plant GRENOBLE, France (UPI) - Self- styled "peace-loving ecologists" fired five rockets from a Soviet launcher yesterday at a nuclear plant under con- struction in an apparent protest against the socialist government's pledge to continue France's nuclear power program. Police said three rockets fired across the Rhone River hit the main 250-foot tower that will house the 1,200- megawatt super-Phenis fast-breeder reactor and two others hit a crane at the site in southwestern France about 40 miles south of Lyon. Damage was light but officials of the Nersa industrial consortium building the $1.5 billion plant said the rockets narrowly missed a group of 20 night- shift workers inside the tower. No radio active material was at-the site. A VILLAGER from Flavieu, a near- by farming hamlet, said, "It sounded like real artillery. The rockets, flying across the river with red flames trailing behind and clearly visible in the darkness, came down with a thun- derous noise." Police reinforcements found the launcher 400 yards from the plan, on the opposite bank of the Rhone. It was described as a Soviet army weapon built in the 1960s and firing 60 mm rockets. Investigators said security around the Super-Phenix, due to open in two years, would be "vastly increased." They feared the attack could lead to a more violent campaign against Fran- ce's nuclear power program. THE SOCIALIST Party, reversing its election promises, decided after coming to power last year to continue/ the program despite protests from ecological groups. France claims that Super-Phenix type reactors would allow it to sharply reduce its dependence on oil imports. Breeder reactors differ from conven- tional nuclear power plants in that breeders produce more nuclear fuel, than they consume. They generate plutonium from which nuclear weapons are made, and which is one of the most toxic substances known. INBRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and United Press International reports Church wants Walesa, WARSAW, Poland- Poland's Roman Catholic bishops met in extraor- dinary session yesterday to discuss the church's stand on martial law and its negotiations with the government to take custody of Solidarity union leader Lech Walesa. A high-ranking. church official said the Communist regime had begun transferring some of the 5,000 Poles arrested since the Dec. 13 military crackdown to permanent'internment camps-a sign that martial law might last a long time. Solidarity, in a clandestine leaflet, meanwhile denounced union officials who cooperated with the government as "traitors and collaborators" and called on Poles to follow the example of Walesa, who has refused to negotiate unless his conditions are met. Economy woes remain WASHINGTON- Anericans' incomes rose less in December than in any month since early 1980, the government reportedyesterday, giving little en- couragement that consumers might sornehow quickly spend the nation out of the recession. 4 In a separate report, the government said housing starts rebounded sub- stantially in December but not enough to keep starts for all of 1981 from the lowest level in 35 years. Added to earlier reports that industrial production sank and unem-. ployment soared in December, the new income figures made it clear that last month was the worst yet in the 1981-82 recession. Cold wave stuns South A departing cold wave left its calling card across the South yesterday, spreading freezing rain and blinding fog that stranded thousands of travelers and caused countless chain-reaction smashups on the highways. "It was just like greased soap," said Police Chief Ralph Deal in Kingsport, Tenn. "You couldn't even walk. I'd say it was the worst ice conditions I've seen in 31 years of law enforcement." Traffic deaths brought the total to almost 300 people killed since record- breaking polar air surged into the nation on Jan. 9. But while the cold wave called the Siberian Express was moving out of the country, forecasters said another arctic blast could be expected at mid-week and temperatures would be generally below normal over the eastern two- thirds of the nation for the next month. Democrats unveil plan to redistrict state LANSING- A Democratic congressional redistricting plan that would wipe out Republican Rep. Carl Pursell's district was denounced by a key GOP lawmaker yesterday as "terrible. The plan was unveiled in the House Elections Committee, whose chairman insisted it was just a starting point for negotiations over new congressional boundaries and that the real negotiations will take place in a House-Senate conference committee. "We wanted to put something together to get things moving," said the chairman, Rep. Michael Griffin (D-Jackson). He, acknowledged that Gov. William Milliken,a Republican, would probably veto the plan as it now stan- ds. Bodies still missing from D.C. crash WASHINGTON- The bodies of some victims of la*, week's Air Florida jetliner crash may never be recovered from the waters of the Potomac River, the headpf thesalvage operation said yesterday. Evidence was growing that the plane's nose was at an extremely high angle shortly after it took off in a swirling snowstorm last Wednesday from National Airport. As of midafternoon yesterday, divers had raised one more body and a por- tion of the wreckage but made no progress on pinpointing the position of two crash-resistant "black boxes" that contain tapes of cockpit noises and of flight characteristics such as altitude and airspeed. The bodies of 18 adults and two children still were missing. .rr v ".-: : \" *.. ..,. ,. .:.: .. ....'o .. . y}:... : .t...... .Sr.v w . . . . . . . . . . ..".".".V,, .. . . . . . . . . . . . ."* ti**\ ..v .o. . . ....y "" ";: " : ;.;: v " :: y {."

"It's the efforts of students that really got it (the resolution)," he said, calling the situation "encouraging." Earlier in the evening, Council unanimously approved a new set of Mousing inspection fees designed to en- courage compliance with the building code. Under the new system, fees will be charged according to the amount of time an inspection consumes, rather than a flat, per-unit rate. An inspector wiuld spend less time in a building with fewer violations, thus costing the owner mnuch less, explained councilwoman Joyce Phesbrough (R-5th). proves regis Peterson supported Chesbrough. "The purpose of this is to increase compliance to the code and improve the quality of rental housing by making those places in poor repair pay more," he said. Jeffrey Gallitan, an Ann Arbor resident, spoke to the Council in op- position to the new fee schedule. He claimed the project had been railroaded through, and that heavy lob- bying had been directed at Council members. He called the plan ''ridiculous." Mayor Louis Belcher denied the railroading charge. "It's been going on for nine months and this is the fourth. public hearing," he said. Other Council trar funds members also denied the lobbying charge. In other business, the Council voted seven to four to ratify a contract giving city police command officers a 24 per- cent pay increase over the next three years. Ratification was opposed by several Council members. "We're doing our share in creating a hole we can't get out of," said Coun- cilman Edward Hood (R-4th). "If we pass this, it's going to come back to haunt us." Councilman David Fisher (R-4th) said he could support the contract for one year, but not three. "It's a com- mitment for the unknown," he said.' Councilwoman Leslie Morris (D-2nd) paid, however, the contract represented the best overall settlement possible. "Our negotiators have done well in get- ting what is best in the long run for the city," she said. Police Chief William Corbett said he was happy with the new contract, ad- ding that it would bring a significant savings in overtime payments. Moveup... flyMarine.

After four and" a half hours,. of discussion, the fraternity and its ad- visors decided to. leave the policy decision in the hands of the fraternity's Alumni Control Board. Their decision is expected in a few days, Gilbert said. ALTHOUGH Gilbert was not suspen- ded, he decided to "move out 'of the house, he said. "They (the fraternity) decided I screwed the house. I sort of broke their trust," he said. "The im- plication from the alumni and the Executive Board is that I should move out." Gilbert said he sent the letter because he believed his own principles were more important than the decision of the fraternity, in this case. "It's a matter of priorities," he said.
