4 Page 2 - The Michigan Daily - Friday, February 21, 1986 Frye warns of iht'U' budget (Continued from Page 1) ~~" \ ...~ , , ded to state legislators that the University receive a $13 million in- crease in general operating budget funds. University officials, however, said last fall they needed a $26 million increase just to meet the University's bare necessities. In addition to the $26 million, University officials asked for another $9 million to begin making up for needs that piled up during the state's budget crisis of the late '70s and early '80s. CASE IN POINT is University faculty salaries, which fell below those at peer institutions by eight per- cent. In addition, Frye said the University deferred making financing $40 million in building renovations and equipment renewals. The bare budget request would in- crease faculty pay by seven percent. If the state legislature does not significantly add to the governor's recommendations, one way to meet the need will be to increase tuition. Frye, however, would not comment on whether tuition will be increased this fall. LAST YEAR, out-of-state tuition was increased by eight percent. In- state tuition was frozen after Blan- chard threatened to veto any higher education increases if in-state tuition was increased. This year, Blanchard asked state universities and colleges to keep tuition increases at the inflation rate to keep increases smaller than last year. Shapiro's comments yesterday came after he said the University had to improve itstquality to compete with other universities and colleges. "WE'RE TERRIFIC and all that kind of stuff, but we should be better," he said. Daily Phoao by JAE KIM The University's Board of Regents meets in the Fleming Building yesterday. The University, Shapiro said, could sustain itself with its current budget situation, "but that's an inadequate aspiration. Everybody else is getting better, so should we." The "five year plan," he said, enabled the University to get through its budget crisis while improving quality. "Just like we had to turn to ourselves in the early-1980s, we have to look to ourselves for reallocation." SHAPIRO, however, said "that doesn't mean we have to do it in the same kind of ways. We have to think over the next year what kind of steps we want to take." Sell Advertising for Earn money, get great business experience, build your resume ...

Deans of the three schoolsesaid they made the cuts on schedule and the quality of their schools improved. Education Dean Carl Berger, however, has said the school has suffered an "image" problem. Shapiro said University officials would continue looking at other ways to increase revenue, as well as ways to make the administration run more efficiently. Correction The Philanthropy Shelter Commit- tee's efforts resulted in 20 people volunteering. The Daily incorrectly reported yesterday that 200 had volunteered. WEEKEND MAGAZINE Fridays in The Daily 763-0379 SHAPIRO also said other sources of funds for the University - such as federal funds - would not be greatly increased over the next five years. Federal funds for financial aid, he said will face reductions regardless of which measures Congress takes to reduce the federal deficit. The state will continue to prosper, he predicted, but most increases in the state's in- come will probably be returned to Michigan residents in tax cuts. Shapiro said one way the University could get more money is through private contributions, noting that the University's current "Campaign for Michigan" program has raised about $115 million in donations. However, he added it could take as many as 14 years to build up as large a program as the University needs. Shapiro also rejected the idea of large tuition increases, saying that both in-state and out-of-state tuition could be raised modestly, but "I do not expect it to give us a special lift." IN BRIEF COMPILED FROM ASSOCIATED PRESS AND UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL REPORTS House panel votes to stop U.S. aid to Marcos' govt. WASHINGTON - A House panel voted unanimously yesterday to halt direct U.S. aid to the government of President Ferdinand Marcos of the Philippines and to channel future humanitarian assistance and economic aid through the Roman Catholic church and other private groups. Most military aid would go into an escrow account to await "a legitimate government. . . which commands the support of the people of the Philippines," the bill said. In voting 9-0 in favor of the legislation, members of the subcommittee on Asian and Pacific Affairs brushed aside objections from Reagan Ad- ministration officials who wanted the panel to wait until presidential emissary Philip Habib returns from Manila to report on his findings. Stressing their bipartisan support, four Republicans joined five Democrats in favor of the bill. Rep. Stephen Solarz (D-N.Y.), the subcommittee chairman, said the bill wouldn't be taken up by the full House Foreign Affairs Committee un- til after Habib returns, so that his findings would be given ample con-. sideration before final passage. Soviets will allow inspections GENEVA - Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev, repeating his call for a total ban on nuclear tests, agreed yesterday to a longstanding U.S. demand for "on-site inspections to verify compliance with any such treaty. In a message to the 40-nation disarmament Conference, Gorbachev also urged the United States to match a Soviet test moratorium, which began last August and is due to expire March 31. "It now depends above all on the United States whether the moratorium will continue to be in effect and whether it will become bilateral and thus multilateral," said the message to the conference, which has discussed a test ban for 23 years. Gorbachev, who said a ban "could become a turning point" in efforts to eliminate nuclear weapons, announced the Soviet Union "is agreeable to the most strict control over a ban on nuclear weapon tests, including on- site inspections." The message was delivered by Georgy Kornienko, first deputy foreign minister, who in a separate speech also sounded Moscow's new line. Iraq downs Iranian plane BAGHDAD, Iraq - Iraqi forces shot down an Iranian plane near the Iran-Iraq border yesterday, killing at least 46 civilians, including a top aide to Iranian spiritual leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, Iran said. Iraq did not directly comment on the report by the official Iranian news agency, IRNA, but said it has not shot down any Iranian civilian planes. Both nations have exaggerated their war claims since fighting broke out in September 1980. According to IRNA, the twin-engine turboprop plane was on a domestic flight from Tehran to Ahwaz, a town near the Iraqi border, when it was attacked and shot down by at least one Iraqi jet. The plane went down 16 miles north of Ahwaz, IRNA said. Among the victims in the downing of the F-28 Fokker Friendship plane was Hojatoles-lam Fadhlollah Mahallati, a top Khomeini aide, IRNA said. Shiite guerrillas in Lebanon fire at raiding Israeli force SRIFA, Lebanon - Guerrillas in this Shiite Moslem village fired on Israel's raiding force yesterday and the Israelis pounded a cluster of houses with shellfire in response. Israeli helicopter gunships strafed nearby olive groves. Israel's military command said one of its soldiers and eight guerrillas were killed. State-owned Beirut radio said that 20 Israelis were killed or wounded, but ther was no confirmation of this claim. It was the first major battle with Shiite guerrillas since the Israelis swept north on Monday to search for two soldiers captured during a guerrilla ambush in Israel's border "security zone." An anonymous telephone caller told a Beirut newspaper the fundamen- talist Shiites who seized the men had killed one of them Wednesday night because the Israelis ignored a demand to withdraw. He said a photograph of the victim would be released yesterday, but it had not tur- ned up by nightfall. Fire from Israeli tank cannon poured into Srifa for three hours yester- day. Most of it appeared to be aimed at 30 houses on the northeast flank of the village, from which Shiite fighters had fired rocket-propelled grenades and machine guns at Israeli units just to the northeast. Thousands protest in India NEW DELHI, India - Hundreds of thousands of people massed in In- dia's cities yesterday to protest food and fuel price increases ordered by the government to finance an ambitious development program. Many shouted, "This is war!" Police arrested about 10,000 people in New Delhi alone, half the estimated number demonstrating in the capital, but released them in a few hours without filing charges. Among those detained were more than 750 women, virtually all the top leaders of the political opposition and more than 100 members of Parliament. Peaceful demonstrators in India customarily seek arrest, in the non- violence tradition of Mohandas Gandhi, and are held only briefly because there is not enough space for them in jails. Most arrests yesterday were for violating a ban on public assembly. The protest in New Delhi was one of dozens in at least 12 other cities and states, including Bombay, Calcutta, Rajasthan, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Ijaryana, Bihar, Orissa and Gujarat.
