Can dit kontinued from Page 1) state income tax and with what some believe to be Milliken's lack of imagination in dealing with the state's economic woes. Brickley therefore is quick to point out what he says are the differences between himself and the current gover- nor. He pushes hard for the deregulation of small business and 'the elimination of the state's workers com- pensation laws and single-business tax,' which taxes a company's costs rather than profits. And, in a bigger surprise, Brickley has argued that the state should not support abortions for low- income women, a move that defies Milliken's defense of these funds. L. Brooks Patterson (R) Patterson has built a controversial reputation as the Oakland County Prosecuter and a hard-nosed Law and Order advocate. In that role, he has been a dogged proponent of the death penalty and a fierce opponent of plea bargaining in criminal cases. But, for purposes of the gubernatorial campaign, Patterson says he wants to move away from the law and order issues and emphasize, like everyone else, the state's economic problems. And, he has developed a point-by-point plan for turning the economy around. At the hub of the plan is the elimination , of business regulations-such as the single- business tax-which he says are making it impossible for Michigan in- dustries to compete with business from other Midwestern states. 'Going into the election, Patterson will have the hometown advantage in Oakland County, which is the state's host populous county. Richard Headlee, (R) Arguing that "government is clearly out of control,",Headlee insists the only Vay to set Michigan back on the path toward prosperity is to' drastically cut back state services whie slashing taxes. If elected, he says he would cut back the number of state employees and reduce the salaries they are paid, turning the services they now perform ever to the private sector. Milliken's proposal to raise taxes was just the issue Headlee was looking for in the campaign. He has repeatedly lashed out at the plan. "I don't think that revenues are the problem in this state, I think expenditures are. I don't think you can reward mismanagement with revenues," he said at a recent campaign stop at Ypsilanti's Eastern Michigari University. In spite of his plan to cut back gover- ent expenditures, Hadlee, a long- time campaigner or Iowert taxes, defends the state's raditionally strong support of higher education. "The only way we stayed in front (of the nation) is due to the great investments we have a made to education," he said last month. Jack Welborn (R) This Kalamazoo Republican has a lot of experience in Lansing, working both as a state representative and a state senator since his first victory in state politics in 1972. Welborn, like many of the other- candidates, have come out swinging on the issue of- Milliken's proposed tax hike. But, despite his record in Lansing and his grassroots campaign experience, Welborn has found it difficult to The Michigan Daily-Sunday, April 11, 1982-Page7 lates for governor ofer diverse choices generate the amount of publicity and He said he would also "review all state trying hard to combat his image as a become pretty much the standard line from Dearborn, is footed firmly in the press coverage necessary to take -on laws and regulations pertaining to one-issue candidate.

He especially has criticize William Fitzgerald (D) tivity. quickly weeded out in the primary. Smaller businesses cannot hope. to Milliken for delaying the state's fourt ie n :1 ,h Fitzgerald is a virtual old-timer in state politics. A 10-year veteran of the state legislature, Fitzgerald made an unsuccessful bid for the executive man- sion in 1978. But, while Fitzgerald enjoys fair name recognition among Michigan voters, many observers say he has lost the support of the state's Democratic Party. Having alienated the party leaders, who have fallen squarely behind Congressman Jim Blanchard, Fitzgerald will be running the race on his own, without help from his party, they say. Fitzgerald has come up with a 10- point plan for revitalizing the state's economy, which he claims will reduce the cost of operating a business in the state, develop new markets for Michigan products, and reduce the cost of running the state government. To make sure the government stays within its budget; his plan calls for a strict limit on how much taxes could be raised. James Blanchard (D) Blanchard, who is thought to be the leading Democratic candidate, is riding the wave against the Milliken ad- ministration. In a recent interview, Blanchard accused Milliken of "living in a dream world," and said the ad- ministration's unorthodox accounting practices need thorough review. He suggests an independent audit of the state's financial operations as the only way to shore up its alleged inefficien- cies. To solve the problems of business in the state, Blanchard says he would call on all leaders in industry, government, and labor to come up jointly with a cooperative plan for making business run more smoothly and cutting costs. Edward Pierce (D) Pierce, who is now Ann Arbor's state senator, is considered by most obser- vers to be a long-shot at best in the gubernatorial race. He says he wants to establish a "thoughtful, practical, and humane" state government, the only problem is that not many voters know quite what he means by that. Pierce has suffered from the ailment common to many of the candidates running: It is very hard to attract at- tention in a campaign filled with more experienced and more influential can- didates. As a result, his has been mostly a quiet campaign. The notable exception to this quiet has been his unique-and somewhat brave-advocacy of a tax hike as a possible way of balancing the state's budget. While almost all the other can- didates have based their campaigns on attacking Milliken's proposal or disassociating themselves from it, Pierce has stood out by suggesting that maybe it's not such a bad idea. He acknowledges that this position ultimately may harm his efforts to win the Democratic nomination in August, but he adds, "the bottomline is that you have to do what is responsible." Robert Tisch (D) If ever there were a eandidate in con- trast to Pierce, it is Tisch, the con- troversial tax-cutcrusaderand drain commissioner for rural Shiawassee County. Tisch has based his cam- paign-asxwould be expected-on the issue of taxes, particularly what he considers to be the injustice of Milliken's most recent proposal. At the same time, however, he is Zolton Ferency (D) This is the' determined Ferency's fourth attempt to win the governor's race in Michigan. Ferency has simply refused to give up since his first try at the office in 1966, despite his deep split with the Democratic party establish- ment. This year, he is basing his campaign on nine major issues.. Among these issues are women's rights, the establishment of a state-owned bank, and a guarantee of the right to strike to state workers. John Saffron (D) Saffron, a 72-year-old Lapeer County attorney,quickly points out that he has lived through three major wars and that he has no intention of seeing another. Therefore, he says he would devote much of his energies to keeping Michigan from contributing to another U.S. military conflict. Saffron said the solution to Michigan's economic problems is also the best way to keep it out of war: The conversion of the state to a peacetime economy. He said Michigan still has not changed back from the wartime, military-based economy it developed during World War II. The efforts recently by some gover- nment and industrial leaders to attract more defense department contracts to the state will only fuel this economy while promoting militarism, he said. He added that as governor, he would try to keep the defense department out of Michigan as much as possible. Kerry Kammer (D) Kammer has adopted what has compete profitably with larger businesses until these measures are eliminated, he said. And the ability to compete is a prerequisite for the even- tual diversification of the economy, he said. David Plawecki (D) Plawecki, currently a state senator quarter appropriations to state colleges and universities and has sworn to bring "straight" management of the books to Lansing. Plawecki, who benefits from having the politically influential Dearborn as home turf, will, however, have to com- bat the common problem of generating enough publicity and interest to carry the campaign through the primary.

'1" Jackson' S / .4. .4 new jazz P (Continued from Page 5) The first piece was very effective, with a melody built on a simple horn phrase in a blues progression that gave way from a funk beat to a cruising up- tempo tenor sax solo. This was one case where the soloist seemed to be simply sustaining a texture as all the other players fit in-one ultimately became aware of Jackson's drumming as the foous of the entire section. Reid followed with a similar extended solo, ending with guitar synthesizers doubling his lines in a different key. The variety of sounds the band achieved both through arranging and electronics was very impressive, as was the imagination and wit evident in the charts and the generally infectious, danceable beats.
