I The Michigan Daily - Friday, November 30, 1984-- Page 5 Quebec Premier survives partisan revolt QUEBEC (AP)-Premier Rene Levesque has sur- vived a revolt by hard-line ministers in his Parti Quebecois government who were unwilling to put side the dream of an independent Quebec. But the weeklong crisis, in which six Cabinet ministers quit, was just the opening skirmish of what: promises to be a contest for the soul of the party Levesque founded 16 years ago. FOR THE first time since the 1980 referendum, in which Quebecers voted 3-2 against Levesque's proposal to negotiate "sovereignty-association" with the rest of Canada, the future of this mostly French- speaking province is the dominant topic of conver- sation. From the gossipy Chalet Suisse restaurant in Old Quebec, where politicians and journalists swap rumors over dinner, to the scattered meeting halls where the members of all 122 local Parti Quebecois organizations are deciding which side to support, the subject is being discussed with what one Cabinet minister called the "urgency of despair." The climax may come Jan. 19, when 1,800 delegates to a special party convention decide whether to follow Levesque and abandon a pledge to make sovereignty the main issue of the next provincial election, expec- ted in 1985. THE PARTI Quebecois, in power since 1976, is in trouble no matter which way it goes. A recent poll found just 23 percent of the population supporting Levesque's party, to 58 percent for the op- position Liberals led by Robert Bourassa, who was premier from 1970-76. Despite the defections from the Cabinet and the decision by four party members to sit as indepen- dents in the National Assembly, as the Quebec Legislature is called, Levesque still has a majority of 66 members in the 122-seat house. LEVESQUE SAYS Quebecers want their provin- cial governments to settle what is known as the "national question" in negotiations with the new Progressive Conservative government of Brian Mulroney, himself a Quebecer. "Consequently, we must surely resign ourselves,. in my humble opinion, at least for the next election, to the fact that sovereignty must not be at stake, neither wholly nor in parts that are more or less disguised," Levesque said last week in a statement. . The premier described the ideal of a sovereign Quebec as merely a "supereme insurance policy" in case dealings with Ottawa don't work out. Levesque's statement outraged those who have committed their political careers to making Quebec, a province where about 80 percent of the 6 million people speak French, an independent republic. Michel Gratton, house leader of the oppositon Liberals, said in an interview that Levesque's new position showed the premier's willingness to " lo whatever somersaults are required to keep in power."

Patricia Whitesell, senior financial aid officer for the law school, said that -the loan was given last February, but declined to comment on the amount or say under whose name the loan was given. WHITESELL SAID, "we're not trying to be uncooperative, we're just not trying to reveal any evidence. This kind of thing could be very damaging to the case." Susan Eklund, associate dean of the law school, declined to say whether the University would press charges against Street for the loan, also saying that she did not want to reveal any evidence. Whitesell did say, though, that Street's true identity was discovered after he failed to repay the loan. "By then," she said, "it was clear that there was something suspicious." She declined to say when the loan was due. A SPOKESMAN for the Ann Arbor police who asked to remain anonymous said police believe Street had lived with or sometimes stayed with the student whose name he forged on the check. The student's name cannot be released until Street has been arraigned, the spokesman said. No trial date had yet been set. Street is no amateur at imper- sonations. In 1970, Street showed up at the Tiger's training camp at Lakeland, Fla., saying that he was Jerry LeVias, then a star receiver with the Houston Oilers. THE IMPERSONATION was so ef- fective that the Tigers sent out a press release about "LeVias's" arrival. Two days later, when Street's imper- sonation was unveiled, the Tigers paid for his plane ticket home. Street had also claimed to be a Michigan football player and showed up in Miami for the North-South college all-star game. But some of his other exploits have been less harmless. In 1973, Street was charged with extortion and jailed after he threatened to kill the wife and two children of former Detroit Tiger star Willie Horton unless he was paid $20,000. HE ESCAPED jail in 1974. As a result, he was re-sentenced another six months to five-years. He also received a one-and-one-half to five year sentence for furnishing false information.

Instead of the incident being a matter of exposure, as the employees say, "It's a matter of do you like being next door to that activity or not," Schlaff said. However, the fact that the testing was done following the asbestos removal has some employees concerned. "THERE's going to be testing but it's after the fact," said Thomas Holt, CAAS director at a meeting on the sub- ject yesterday. Representatives from the Univesity's OSEH office, as well as Schlaff, and representatives from the University's administrators who are overseeing the project were present at the meeting. Had readings been taken earlier, more asbestos would have been found in the air, because at the time of the reading no insulation was being removed," Jones said. According to the tests conducted by the University's OSEH office on Nov. 12, 16, and 20, levels of asbestos ranged from .01 fiber per cubi centimeter to levels of .96 - below present standards which is 2 fibers-per cubic centimeter. ON NOV. 12, tests showed that an asbestos level of .02 was present on the building's third floor hallway;. a level of .01 was present in Room 207, site of the University's Center for Afroamerican and African Studies office. Tests done that same day on Room 407 in Lorch Hall which is another CAAS office, the hallway outside that room and the building's first floor stairwell could not be analyzed because of too much dust. On Nov. 16, tests showed that Room 407 had asbestos levels of .10 and .13; the first floor stairwell was reported to have a level of .07; and the hallway out- side Room 407 was reported to have a level of .87 and .96. Tests conducted Nov. 20 show that the hallway outside Room 407 had a level of .07; outside Room 502 had a level of .31; and Room 215 had a level of .10. At yesterday's meeting the Univer- sity decided to postpone the next phase of asbestos removal until winter break, when employees aren't scheduled to work in the building. But Garcia said that if the levels of asbestos in the air rise, after the break, she will quit her job. LIBERAL ARTS MAJORS ... You're Needed All Over the World.
