Jackson's study found that older blacks, poorer blacks, and less educated blacks, were all generally happier with their lives than younger blacks, wealthier blacks, or better educated blacks. "WE DID not expect these results when we began this survey," Jackson said Friday. But Jackson added that age, income, and level of education generally proved to be poor indicators of satisfaction with life for black Americans. Earlier studies of white Americans, however, indicate that age, education, and income often directly correspond to happiness and level of satisfaction. Therefore, the usual socio-economic indicators for determining levels of hapl mness are not applicable to black Americans, according to the study. For the study, called the National Survey of Black Americans, Jackson S. blacks randomly selected more than 2,000 American blacks, each of whom was in- terviewed for two-and-a-half hours. THE STUDY incorporates national surveys of the adult black population, elderly blacks, and three generations of black Americans in "the most exten- sive study of its kind ever conducted on this segment of the population," Jackson said. Thestudy has been conducted over a two-year period and Jackson em- phasized that his current findings are still preliminary. Jackson said he began to develop the idea for the survey in 1973, when he and his colleagues were dissatisfied with existing survey data on black Americans because, he said, they were too narrow. These surveys usually focused on specific population groups, he said, such as southern blacks or urban blacks. Jackson, a University psychology professor, warned that the survey's findings might be easily misinterpreted if any of the study's 1,500 variables are overlooked.

Nuclear weapons freeze campaign begins at 'U' IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and United Press International reports East Europe backs mike plants: VIENNA, Austria- While plans for nuclear plants are being abandoned in the West because of growing expense and opposition, Eastern Europe is forging ahead with ambitious nuclear power projects. The communist countries of Eastern Europe are planning to sharply in- crease their reliance on nuclear power, and have set high goals for expan- sion. According to figures available from the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), there are 46 nuclear power plants in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union. Forty more are under construction. Salvadoran army attacks province SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador- Two thousand Salvadoran troops, in- cluding a U.S.-trained brigade, swept through a northern province yesterday in a new military offensive near where four Dutch journalists were killed, authorities said. In the northern Chalatenango province, military commanders said the government's latest 2,000-man offensive converged on the towns of Arcatao, Las Vueltas and Las Flores, all about 40 miles northeast of the capital and only a few miles from the Honduran border. Nicaraguan, Honduran forces clash MANAGUA, Nicaragua- Honduran war jets and a Nicaraguan gunboat clashed off the Caribbean coast in the second armed confrontation in a week between the increasingly belligerent neighbors, authorities from both coun- tries said yesterday. The Nicaraguan Defense Ministry said its boat was attacked by three Honduran Super Mystere jets Sunday and shot back, hitting and possibly downing one of the planes. Honduras said Nicaraguan gunboats fired first and denied any of its planes were hit. The clash came amid charges by the leftist Sandinista government that the United States was planning an "imminent" invasion of Nicaragua from Honduran bases, led by exiled Nicaraguan rightists. On Friday, Nicaragua demanded an emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council to discuss the accusation. ERA backers vow not to give up WASHINGTON - Supporters of the Equal Rights Amendment vowed yesterday to reintroduce the ERA in Congress and make it an issue in the 1982 campaign if the amendment fails to pass in the 100 days remaining. "If you think we're quitting on June 30th, forget it," Rep. Pat Schroeder (D-Colo.) told a news conference. June 30 is the deadline for getting three more states to ratify the proposed consitituional amendment. ERA supporters were-asking members of Congress to sign a letter telling state legislators, "The issue will not die. The debate will continue as lively as ever." "If the ERA is not ratified, it will be an issue in the 1982 campaign. The polls indicate that in many races it will be a decisive issue." UAW executives to review pact DETROIT - Rank-and-file General Motors Corp. workers yesterday both praised and damned the as yet unratified concessionary contract approved during the weekend by United Auto Workers and company bargainers. Industry observers said the contract would save nearly 11,000 jobs and possibly lower car prices in return for as much as $3 billion in union con- cessions. The union's International Executive Council met to review the 30-month pact that was unanimously approved by the UAW's bargaining committee Sunday night.

Meanwhile, in Washington, Senate supporters of a nuclear weapons freeze said yesterday Congress must catch up with public sentiment for a halt in the arms race. "We must stop treating the possibility of a nucler conflict as an ac- ceptable option," Sen Edward Kennedy (D-Mass) said. Sen Mark Hatfield (R-Ore.) said a freeze followed by mutual reductionsfofdthe U.S.mand Soviet nuclear arsenals offers "the most practical, meaningful, way" to begin arms reduction. He and Kennedy have proposed such a freeze in a resolution co-sponsored by 171 other members of Congress. Rep. Albert Gore (D-Tenn.) also in- troduced yesterday what he called a "Modified moratorium" proposal on nucler weapons. Gore proposed a moratorium of four or five years during which neither side would add to the number of weapons or warheads, But could continue research and development as a hedge against the possible collapse of negotiations on a weapons reduction plan. FOUR HIROSHIMA survivors, testifying at the start of a public forum chaired by Kennedy and Hatfield, told in emotional detail how they lived through "hell on Earth" in August 1945. "I saw the city was no more,"'said Dr. Mytsuo Tomosawa, now an op- temetrist in Watsonville, Calif. Tomosawa, who was 15 at the time, said the night after the blast "we couldn't sleep for the moaning of all those people" in a nearby hospital. "It looked just like hell - hell on this earth. The city was turned into a desert of death," he said. - Student Newspdper at The University of Michigan -----------" WRITE YOUR AD HERE! ----------- 1 II I - - - - - - - CLIP AND MAIL TODAY!-mmm-Mmm l USE THIS HANDY CHART TO QUICKLY ARRIVE AT AD COST Words Days 1 2 3 4 5 add. - 0-14 1.85 3.70 5.55 6.75 7.95 1.00 Please indicate 15-21 2.75 5.55 8.30 10.10 11.90 1.60 wherethris ad is to run: 22-28 3.70 7.40 11.10 13.50 15.90 2.20 for rent 29-35 4.60 9.25 13.90 16.90 19.90 2.80 hepor sa 36-42 5.55 11.10 16.65 20.25 23.85 3.40 roommates personal 43-49 6.45 12.95 19.40 23.60 27.80 4.00 etc. Each group of characters counts as one word.
