Page 2-Saturday, April 16, 1983-The Michigan Daily Protests, ilings mark 'Tax Day' V WASHINGTON (UPI) - As many as 15 million Americans procrastinating uintil the last day raced to complete and file their federal income tax returns yesterday - and some faced a double deadline. Midnight also was the normal cutoff for people to reduce their 1982 taxes by investing in an Individual Retirement Account. But the Internal Revenue Ser- vice said those who filled out the proper form by midnight for an extension in filing their taxes also would get up to a four-month extension to apply an IRA to that year. Like the millions of other Americans who waited until almost the last minute President and Mrs. Reagan filed their joint 1982 federal tax return Thursday and sent Uncle Sam a check for $168,034, the tax balance owed on a total income of $741,253. Their total tax bill foiz the year was $292,616 - 39.5 percent of income. But $124,582 had been paid through estimated tax payments and withholding. iA group of activists kicked off a cam- paign to roll back Michigan taxes and give voters a say in any future in- creases. Former State Senator Jack Welborn and Richard Headlee - foes in the 1982 Republican gubernatorial primary - were among those who attended the Voter's Choice news conference held in / .4 1/ 3S A'. .. Daily Photo by DAVID FRANKEL While larger protests marked yesterday's tax return deadline in other cities, this skit highlighted Ann Arbor's rally out- side the Federal Building. the Capitol rotunda. The group - a coalition of anti-tax organizations from around the state - is petitioning to place on the 1984 ballot a measure rolling state and local taxes back to their Dec. 31, 1981 level, and requiring voter approval for any new ones. Also in Lansing a small group gathered for a "tax day" rally designed as the climax to Jobs with Peace Week observances protesting military spen- ding. About 50 protesters huddled on the Capitol steps to hear speeches by peace and community activists and listen to music. The remarks all had a similar theme - that the federal government's sped- ning priorities are distorted and that more emphasis should be placed on social programs. Scott Baird of the nuclear weapons freeze campaign said the government should "take money out of the military budget and leave it available to be deployed where people really need it." People in the crowd carried signs reading "Cut the military budget, not human services" and "Create jobs, not weapons." 'U, acts on charges of sexual harassment IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and United Press International reports Economic recovery accelerates WASHINGTON - In a double dose of good news for the nation's economic recovery, the government reported yesterday that wholesale prices dropped 0.1 percent and factory production made a strong 1.1 percent gain in Mar- ch. The decline in wholesale prices form January to March, as measured by the government's Producer Price Index, was the steepest for any quarter in more than three decades, the Labor Department said. At the same time, a sharp surge in factory production of construction sup- plies, and even furniture and carpeting, was triggered by a housing boom that lifted February's housing starts 93 percent above the level of a year earlier. "It's just the kind of recovery we were hoping for," Martin Feldstein, the president's chief economic adviser, told reporters at the White House. "It's continuing increase in output that leads to greater hires and declines in unemployment," he added. "We're very pleased with the way the recovery is progressing." Overall, the March factory figures returned to the vigorous upward trend that erupted with January's 1.5 percent improvement that first convinced many economists the recession was ending. Production was up only 0.3 per- cent in February. Before December, it had gone up only twice in 17 months. Peking protests Pan Am flights PEKING - Already strained U.S.-China relations came under new ten- sion yesterday, with aviation sources saying Peking threatens "severe repercussions" if Pan American Airways resumes flight to Taiwan in June as scheduled. The dispute is raging at a time when relations are badly strained by the U.S. decision to give political asylum to Chinese tennis player Hu Na. In reprisal, China suspended all official sports and cultural exchanges with the United States. Pan Am's plans to resume flights to Taiwan has been the subject of quiet protests by CAAC, China's state airline, for some time. But with the June 16 date for the resumption of services to Taiwan drawing near, the protests have been stepped up lately, aviation sources said. China last month sent a protest to the U.S. Civil Aviation Board, which is expected to reply within the next two weeks. "CAAC has said there will be severe repercussions if the flights resume." an aviation source said. Pan Am is the only U.S. airline with passenger service to China, which regards Taiwan as a renegade province that one day must be reunified with the mainland. Kohl urges U.S.-Soviet talks WASHINGTON - West German Chancellor Helmut Kohl said yesterday he believes Moscow has not locked the door on U.S. nuclear arms proposals and urged President Reagan to make "personal contacts" with Soviet leader Yuri Andropov. Kohl, leader of a West German conservative coalition, made his remarks following a 212-hour Oval Office meeting and lunch with Reagan. "It is our belief we have not yet heard the last word from the Soviet Union," Kohl said, appearing to push for an early summit meeting between Reagan and Andropov on nuclear arms control. Reagan called on the Soviets to "respond seriously" to his latest proposal for deploying equal numbers of intermediate range missiles in Europe. "If Soviet intransigence makes agreement impossible," Reagan em- phasized, the United States will go ahead with plans to deploy the Pershing-2 and cruise missiles in Germany in December. Shultz warns Nicaraguan plot WASHINGTON - Secretary of State George Shultz said yesterday that "all of Central America" is a target of Nicaragua's subversion, and ex- pressed concern that the Soviet Union may deploy nuclear missiles in that country. In a wide-ranging review of the administration's Central America policy, Shultz also said a solid majority of the people of El Salvador view the prospect of a guerrilla victory there as a "frightening phenomenon." Shultz's remarks were prepared for delivery in Dallas to the World Affairs Council and the Chamber of Commerce. A copy of the s'peech was released at the State Department. Shultz made no reference to allegations by some members of Congress that the United States is engaged in a covert operation in Nicaragua aimed at toppling the Sandinista government. But he made clear his view that vital American security interests are at stake in Central America. "Central America is so close that its troubles automatically spill over onto us, so close that the strategic posture of its countries affects ours, so close that its people's suffering brings pain to us as well," he said. (Continued from Page 1) ce process, Holbrook said. They also may be risking their careers. "The student who comes forward puts his or her career into someone else's hands," Holbrook said. The per- son risks gaining a bad reputation among colleagues and potential em- ployers. "The network works," Holbrook said. "Very difficult problems face anyone who blows the whistle." But Holbrook said he believes that students who decide to speak up help alleviate the problem. If these cases reach the public, that will have a deterrent effect, he said. THE RACKHAM student who did blow the whistle agrees. "It only takes a couple of examples to let the faculty know they can't get away with anything just because they have tenure," she said. In fact, the panel that reviewed her case recommended that the dean of the graduate school at some later date reveal that such a case has occurred. "The conduct found in this case to have been sexual harassment might not have occurred if the meaning of that term had been widely understood, the possibility of its occurrence more widely recognized, the effort to prevent it a concern more actively shared, and its painful consequences better known," the report states. NORDBY SAID that top University officials are "extremely concerned" about sexual harassment on campus. "Whenever a case comes up, the president, the vice presidents, and deans are absolutely dead serious about seeing that it is stopped," she said. In the two cases that led to resignations, Nordby said, the deans took action promptly once the facts - which she labeled "rather outrageous" - became clear. The deans told the faculty members involved that it would be wisest for them to resign, she said. In one situation, two students were facing a mandatory course with the professor in the semester immediately following the complaints of harassment, and it was necessary that action be taken quickly, said Susan Kaufmann, an affirmative action of- ficial. The affirmative action office initiated the grievance against that professor, Kaufmann said, because several students had complained about him. Ordinarily, the office will not intervene unless a student requests help, she said. THE LEGAL statue of sexual harassment on campus ias not been established, Nordby said. Sexual harassment is illegal under laws prohibiting sexual discrimination in the workplace. It also is thought to be illegal under Title IX, which prohibits sex discrimination in education, said Jean King, an Ann Arbor feminist at- torney. But this law has not been tested in the courts, she said. WANT A JOB YOU CAN BELIEVE IN?

"We are proceeding as if it is. We simply cannot have sexual harassment.on campus." ALTHOUGH UNIVERSITY President Harold Shapiro outlined a general policy against sexual harassment in a 1980 memorandum, there is no uniform grievance procedure for students who wish to take formal action against a faculty mem- ber. Each school and college must deal with sexual harassment cases accor- ding to its individual academic grievance procedures, Nordby said. That situation created great dif- ficulties for the Rackham student when she discovered that the medical school had no formal grievance procedure. Medical school associate dean Robert Reed would not elaborate on that policy. In some cases, sexual harassment problems can often be resolved without resorting to formal hearings, Nordby said. Students who have been harassed have already suffered tremendously, Kaufmann said, explaining that infor- mal mediation by a third party is often faster and less humiliating than formal grievance procedures. Jell0 j ump attracts solid support for charity (Continued from Page ) The first diver to take the plunge, Pi Beta Phi member Stacey Levy, said she enjoyed the jump, but would think twice before doing it again. OTHERS WERE not as tolerant of the frozen jello. "I've never been so cold in my life," said John Melick, member of Phi Gamma Delta. "When you come out it paralyzes you," he said. Most of the jello-jumpers were mem- bers of the sorority and fraternity spon- soring the event, Melick said. "Most people aren't stupid enough to jump in," he said. After the golf ball near the top. had been fished out, the jumpers resorted to doing cannon balls into the five-foot deep vat to search for the remaining balls. The festivities were scheduled to begin at noon, with music by Dick-the- Bruiser and The Bruiser Band and the band Bitter Sweet Alley, but a faulty generator delayed the program for over an hour. While organizers searched for a new generator, local personality Shakey Jake came to the rescue and enter- tained the crowd with his unlimitable guitar-playing and singing. The event's highlight came when An- ne Larkin, a member of Delta Delta Delta sorority and president of the Panhellenic Association learned that her raffle ticket was the grand prize winner Police .noe-s Police capture Turkish hijacker ATHENS, Greece - Police stormed the cockpit of a hijacked Turkish Air- lines jetliner at Athens airport early this morning and arrested the Turkish leftist who was holding the plane's crew at knifepoint, authorities said. Police said no gunshots were fired when they overpowered the Turk, Mahmout Kalkan, who hijacked the plane yesterday while it was on a domestic flight over Turkey. Three armored cars, six police patrol cars and two trucks with 50 police of- ficers surrounded the plane. Kalkan, 25, threatended to blow up the plane with a bottle he said con- tained explosives if police entered the aircraft, said an aide to Prime Minister Andreas Papandreou. Kalkan released the 112 passengers, in- cluding six Americans, after landing in Greece. Marshall Lewis Johnson, Autralian ambassador to Greece, arrived at the airport for negotiations with the hijacker after Kalkan demanded the plane be refueled for a flight to Sydney, Australia. i FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH 1432 Washtenaw Ave., 662-4466 (between S.
