XCIV-No. 106 Copyright 1984, The Michigan Daily Ann Arbor, Michigan- Tuesday, February 7, 1984 Fifteen Cents Eight Pages Reagan calls for cuts in inancial By LAURIE DELATER If President Reagan gets his way, students applying for financial aid next year will see fewer grants and more work study and loans. In his 1985 budget sent to Congress last week, Reagan proposed eliminating two types of grant programs - the Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant and State Student Incentive Grant. He also asked Congress to eliminate the National Direct Student Loans program., He proposed channelling some of that money into work study and Guaranteed Student Loans programs. THE PLAN would hurt University students more than many others around the nation because it would shift aid from low and middle income students to the lowest income students. Most University students who receive financial aid fall into the low and mid- dle income groups. The reductions in the three programs would decrease student aid given to the University for distribution by 27 per- cent. Total student aid spending would increase slightly to $6.4 billion because of the boost in Guaranteed Student Loans, (GSL) said Thomas Butts, a University lobbyist in Washington D.C. The GSL, however is distributed through banks and other programs and not necessarily through the University. "The plan fits in very well with the Reagan Administration's philosophy tJiat its budget should respond to needs, not wants," said Harvey Grotrian, director of the University's Office of Financial Aid. BUT GROTRIAN and Butts, say Reagan's plan is a replay of financial aid requests from the past two years and will probably be defeated again by Congress. Given last year's rejection of similar requests and election year pressures, See REAGAN, Page 7 Rebel fores seize west Beirut Daily rhoto by DO UMMHN Georgia state senator Julian Bond criticizes the Reagan administration Sunday night in a speech at the Alumni Center. Bond criticizes 'rabid right' By LINDA LANE Georgia State Senator Julian Bond delivered a blistering yet eloquent attack on the Reagan administration's "calculated neglect" of the poor and undermining of civil rights Sunday night at the University Alumni Center. Calling the president "an amiable incompetent," Bond also criticized the administration for trying to pump $2 billion into the defense budget at the expense of civilian jobs. REAGAN HAS "surrendered the general good to the corporategood," Bond told a standing-room only crowd," and created a ever-increasing gap between the rich and poor and blacks have found-themselves on the bottom, he said. "The pessimism we see today seems more than justified." In addition to his "nullification of the needs of the needy," Reagan has endangered crucial civil rights improvments made in the last 20 years, Bond said. "THEY ARE trying to turn back the civil rights clock un- til it becomes a sundial,",Bond said. "These governments forces are leading the way back to a dismal, distant past." In his attack on the defense budget Bond put the $1.9 billion.Reagan proposal into more human terms. Divided evenly, it's enough money to give every single American $7,000, he said. In another example he said that a $1.9 billion stack of 1,000 dollar bills would reach 134 miles high. The worst thing about the defense budget, however, is the jobs it steals from civilians, he said, One billion dollars spent on defense spending creates 48,000 fewer jobs than the same amount put into public services, he estimated. BOND MANAGED jabs at Reagan's administration and the "rabid right" in several other areas. He said the nation's safety net of social services was so porous that it couldn't contain Moby Dick. Bond criticized ultra-conservatives for opposing abor- tion, yet supporting capital punishment. "They seem to think that life begins at conception and ends at birth," he said. Bond pushed voting, political participation, and activism as the cure for America's problems. "The lesson we should have learned from the 60s is that a mass movement must have an organized base," Bond said. "People mistakenly believe they are impotent - unable to change the system. But-today's times call for no-lessthan the civil rights movement demanded, and, in fact, require more. . . We need to mobilize the troops and lead them to the streets." From AP and UPI BEIRUT, Lebanon - Anti-gover- nment Moslem militiamen seized most of west Beirut in furious street battles with the Lebanese army yesterday and demanded the resignation of Christian President Amin Gemayel. One Marine and eight Italian soldiers in the Beirut multinational peacekeeping force were reported wounded in the fighting, which exploded across the city and plunged the American-backed Gemayel ad- ministration into its worst crisis since it took office 16 months ago. HOODED SHIITE Moslem irregulars and their Druse allies drove Lebanese army units from most of their check- points on Moslem west Beirut's main commercial thoroughfares and residential neighborhoods. ' At sundown, an eerie haze of smoke and cordite shrouded this city of 1 million people. Thundrous blasts of ar- tillery, rocket-propelled grenades, Katyusha rockets and mortars echoed among the high-rise buildings, reminiscent of the 1975-76 civil war. For the first time Shiite Moslem leader Nabih Beri called on Gemayel, a Maronite Christian, to resign. "THE BATTLE is about to end, Lebanon's little shah Gemayel is on the verge of collapse!" Berri, leader of the Shiite movement Amal, declared in a radio broadcast. President Reagan deplored the Lebanese fighting and blamed Syria for the new outbreak of violence in a statement issued during a trip to Illinois. TI call on the gdvernment of Syria, which occupies Lebanese territory from which much of the shelling of civilian centers originates, and which vacilitiates and supplies instruments for terrorist attacks on the people of Lebanon, to cease this activity." Defying a government curfew' and shoot-to-kill orders, thousands of Shiite Moslem gunmen surged out of their southern Beirut suburbs and into mid- dle-class west Beirut for the first time since September. "You cannot count them. They are everywhere. On main streets, in alleyways, on rooftops. It is total anar- chy. Machine gun fire is echoing everywhere," a west Beirut resident said. The Pentagon announced later that U.S. warships off Lebanon struck back with gunfire and airpower after Marines at the Beirut airport had come under fire at Beirut airport. The announcement said the Marines returned fire "with their own weapons" and that Navy guns opened up against the attackers, who were not identified in the statement, while "close air sup- port" was sent from the carrier John F. Kennedy. Gemayel's Sunni Moslem prime minister, Shafik Wazzan, had resigned with his eight Cabinet members Sunday to clear the way for a national coalition Cabinet to try to end the conflict, which pits the army and the Christian right- wing Phalangist militia on one side agpinst Syrian-supported Druse and Shiite fighters on the other. In Washington, White House spokesman Larry Speakes said the Reagan administration hoped Gemayel "will quickly be able to form a respon- sible, broadly representative gover- nment." U.S. diplomats in Beirut had been "actively involved" in discussions with Lebanese. leaders since Sunday, Speakes said.
