I The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, October 14, 1986 - Page 3 Bullard wants more spending By STEPHEN GREGORY Democratic State Rep. Perry Bullard said yesterday that if the state is "to keep the University of Michigan the engine of the state's economy," it will have to increase revenue spending for higher education. Addressing the political science class "Current Issues" Bullard said, "It is essential to the future of Michigan that we have a state government that raises the state's revenue" to increase funding for creasing expenses, Bullard said that spending cuts would lead to higher tuition and lower faculty pay. Bullard has said he wants to see the current tuition at state colleges and universities reduced. Referring to Republican guber- natorial candidate William Lucas' proposed $500 million cut in state expenses, Bullard said that such a cut would reduce the $225 million the University is now receiving from the state by $12 million. NOT ONLY would the cuts quarter of the revenue raised from the 1982 tax increase went to reducing the state's $1.7 billion deficit. Buchholzt said she thought combatting the deficit was the aim of the tax hike. Bullard disagreed that the sole purpose of the tax was to reduce the deficit and said the other three- fourths of the revenue went to "vital human service" for Michigan residents financially hurt by the 1982 recession. Bullard described Blanchard's support for a permanent tax increase as political. He said the governor knew his tax proposal would be modified by the State Legislature, so he bargained for more than he knew he would get. "In the legislative process something al- ways is taken away," Bullard said.

(Who doesn't higher education. Bullard proposed that the extra revenue come from the increased income the state government will receive as a result of the recent federal tax reform. The new tax bill, which is expected to become law later this year, will enable the state to tax some income that is now exempt. GOV. JAMES Blanchard, however, is considering rolling back the state income tax from 4.6 percent to 4.4 percent, cancelling out any increased revenue generated from the federal tax reform. Bullard also proposed redirecting funds from state-supported services, like the penal system, and channeling them to public colleges and universities.

"What do you tell those people?" Bullard asked. LSA sophomore Martin Crew, a student in the class, felt the state's welfare system is laden with problems such as welfare fraud, and is therefore not working properly. "And you're asking for more money," Crew told the rep- resentative. Bullard said that, although he favors welfare reform, he doubts state spending on social services would fall because of it.

The Soviets would have won ;either way, Tanter said, because, ,had Reagan agreed to the proposal, ,the weapons would be dismantled; ;Gorbachev wfuld look good for ;making the offer and Reagan would have trouble justifying his previous support for "Star Wars." In the event of Reagan's rejection of the offer, he will be blamed for the plan's failure. In Tanter's view, the Soviets are "playing the American' press as if they were professional musicians. They have won the public relations battle, round one." He said that if Reagan had accepted or rejected Gorbachev's offer, he would face trouble back home. 11 L Campus Cinema What Happened to Kerouac?

"A Democrat who was afraid of voting against SDI previously now has a good reason for voting against it," Tanter said. ALTHOUGH SDI has be- come a political stumbling block to U.S.-Soviet arms control, Uni- versity researchers who are involved in SDI-funded projects, refused to comment on the political im- plications f their work. Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Prof. Theodore Birdsall said, "I'm not a politician and do not purport to be one." Birdsall and other faculty re- searchers maintained that research they are doing is of such a basic nature that any SDI applications are far in the future. According to Chemistry Prof. Adon Gordus, "We are doing very, very basic research. The practical applications are so far distant-maybe 20 years from now-that nobody has really thought about it." United States officials, speaking on condition they not be identified, said the U.S. team would try to salvage at least parts of the deal in Geneva, where U.S.-Soviet arms talks are continuing. "It will be difficult for the Soviets to forget the fact" that both sides were willing at one point to eliminate nuclear missiles in- Europe, reduce the number of long- range nuclear weapons to 1,600 in five years, and altogether in 10 years, one official said.
