4 Engin. profs wary of humanities transfer IN BRIEF Abraham Brumberg, Research Associate at Johns Hopkins University and Contributing Editor of The New Republic; former editor of Problems of Communism.

(Continued from Page 1) he said of LSA classes, "If you are with nursing, dentistry, and pre-med studen- ts, there is no common bond ... You can't relate." Engineering college officials have in- sisted that the proposed reorganization of the college's humanities program-which would involve the closure of one unit, the transfer of another to LSA, and the retention of a third-does not reflect any change in the college's commitment to a broad education for engineering students. "I've heard some concerns as to whether a student can get a liberal education (solely) within the College of Engineering," said engineering Dean James Duderstadt. "We are very seriously committed to a broad and liberal education for our students." Associate engineering Dean Charles Vest agreed, arguing that exposing engineering students to classes outside the college would promote a broader education. "It would be a healthier overall system if LSA and engineering students mingled and took courses together," he said. Most engineering professors, however, said that while they didn't see the proposed move as abandonment of humanities, they did worry that it would mean the loss of some unique ad- vantages the college's own humanities program enjoyed. "It's quite likely that once everybody gets used to it, it will work, but it's going to be hard. There is a special relationship between the (engineering humanities) department and studen- ts," said Prof. Robert Martin, who has been in the department for 18 years. "We have small classes and we spend time teaching. I'm not sure that will happen (in LSA) the way it does in (the college)." The proposed move, initiated primarily to save money, will not be as economical as it appears since both Duderstadt and LSA curriculum dean James Cather agree that the college would have to pay the costs LSA would incur in teaching the 4,200 students who would be making the switch. Compiled from Associated Press and United Press international reports Reagan tells Arab leaders to 'come out of the closet' WASHINGTON- President Reagan will tell Arab leaders that the road to peace in the Middle East requires them to "come out of the closet" and openly recognize Israel, a senior State Department official said yesterday. Briefing reporters on a visit by a six-nation delegation from the Arab League, the official said there are some "constructive elements" in an Arab peace plan adopted last month at Fez, Morocco. But he said it is essential that moderate Arab nations, especially Saudi Arabia, give Jordan a mandate to negotiate with Israel on behalf of Palestinians in the Israeli-occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip. He said he thinks King Hussein of Jordan would negotiate if he has Arab backing. The delegation wants to explain the Arab plan to Reagan in a meeting at the White House today. Reagan also will lobby for his own peace initiative, unveiled Sept. 1. The Arab nations want a separate Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza Strip-territories occupied since 1967 by Israel. Reagan's plan calls for Palestinian self-rule in association with Jordan. Israel says it won't give up the West Bank under any circumstances. Stocks rise to new highs NEW YORK- The Dow Jones industrial average struggled to reach its highest level in nearly 10 years yesterday on a late-buying surge that showed Wall Street's resolve to drive the blue chip indicator past its all-time peak. Trading topped the 100 million-share mark for the 15th time as large in- stitutional investors swarmed to the market from the outset. They backed off a bit until the end when they saw signs that the little guy was buying. "This rally will continue because there is so much money around from the All-Savers certificates and certificates of deposit," said Lucien Hooper, a 63- year veteran on Wall Street. Speculation that the Federal Reserve would cut its discount rate inten- sified as West Germany lowered its discount charges. Experts said West Germany would not have moved unless it was certain the American central bank would act. I I t THE DAILY CLASSIF IEDS ARE A GREAT WAY TO GET FAST RESULTS CALL 764-0557 0 ,1!

"There will be a referendum with two proposals . . . to suspend the negotiations until immediately after the Christmas holidays or strike Chrysler Corporation at 10 a.m. on Nov. 1," Fraser said at a news conferen- ce. Fraser said the ballot will go out to workers in the next day or two and workers also will receive a letter telling them about the vote. The ballots'are to be turned in at the plants on Tuesday and results of the vote should be known that night, he said. The automaker's refusal to grant an immediate pay raise caused a break- down in negotiations on Monday. The rank-and-file had overwhelmingly rejected a tentative contract reached Sept. 16. "It's futile to continue negotiations now," Fraser said. "We're content to delay negotiations until after the holidays." Fraser said he hoped the U.S. economy will be better in January and Chrysler will be able to offer workers more. Chrysler employs 43,200 autoworkers in the United States plus 41,900 reported on indefinite layoff this week. Fraser said laid-off workers who have remained "in good standing" will be allowed to vote. Irish militants win election BELFAST, Northern Ireland - Militants from both sides of Northern Ire- land's religious divide won election to the new assembly yesterday, bringing taunts of "murderer" from Protestants and cries of "we shall not be moved" from Catholics. Their reaction dimmed any hopes that Ulster's bloodshed will end. Gerry Adams, a leader of the Irish Republican Army's political front, and his firebrand rival, the Rev. Ian Paisley, both won election to the 78-member Assembly that London set up to bring the minority Catholics into the political process so the British army eventually could get out of Northern Ireland. Both moderate and extremist Catholic candidates have said they will refuse to take their seats in the assembly, and the Protestants have refused to share power. The victories by the three Sinn Fein candidates appeared to deal a blow to British government hopes of creating a forum for uniting the Catholic minority and Protestant majority in the province. U.S. limits steel imports WASHINGTON - The United States and Europe agreed yesterday to limit shipments of European steel to this country, ending a bitter dispute between the allies. The agreement, reached hours before a deadline for imposing penalty duties on imported steel, was accepted by U.S. steelmakers who had blamed the imports for contributing to their worst financial crunch since the Depression. President Reagan announced the settlement while on a campaign swing in Omaha, Neb., and hailed it as "good news" for the steel industry and for the economy. It will mean, he said, "more and lasting jobs in the steel industry, which will translate into good news on the employment front." Had the restrictions been in place in 1981, Commerce Secretary Malcolm Baldrige said, there would have been 25,000 to 30,000 more jobs for the U.S. industry. be ffrbtfgan13al Au Vol. XCIII, No. 38 Friday, October 22, 1982 The Michigan Daily is edited and managed by students at The University of Michigan.
