ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) -
A conservative coalition scored a
landslide victory over former Prime
Minister Benazir Bhutto yesterday,
likely setting Pakistan's struggling
demo- cracy on a more conservative,
Islamic course.
Bhutto, who claims her August
dismissal was a "constitutional
coup," refused to concede the defeat
of her counter-left Pakistan People's
Party in Wednesday's parliamentary
election.
She accused the army-backed,
caretaker government of large-scale
vote rigging, a charge that may be
difficult to prove.
Opponents called Bhutto a sore
loser and said the more than 2-1 vic-
tory margin by the loose-knit, right-;
wing Islamic Democratic Alliance
surpassed even their expectations. ,
In the final vote count, almost 24,
hours after polls closed, Bhutto's
Pakistan People's Party won only
45 of the 216 parliamentary races, to
105 for her opponents. The policy-
making assembly, the lower house
of the Parliament, elects the prime
minister.
The rest of the seats went to
smaller ethnic and religious parties
and independents.
"The people have given their
mandate, their verdict. Ms. Bhutto
should accept the results and prove
to the world that she's a democrat,"
caretaker Prime Minister Ghulam
Mustafa Jatoi told a news conference
Thursday.
A 40-member group of inter-na-
tional poll-watchers refused immedi-
ate comment on - Bhutto's asser-
tions of vote fraud, but said it might
discuss its preliminary findings to-
day.

The group's assessment could af-
fect hundreds of millions of dollarO
in vital U.S. aid for the government
now headed by Prime Minister Ghu-
lam Mustafa Jatoi. The United
States and other Western countries
have warned they may cut off aid if
the election was rigged and Bhutto
victimized.
Poll watchers were suspicious of
some constituencies where they wit-
nessed a low voter turnout. The final
vote count showed tens of thousandA
had marked their ballots.
The winning alliance espouses
adherence to the principles of Islam,
and there is speculation it could
tighten controls on the media, and
restrict the rights of women and non-
Moslems. It also favors a closer re-
lationship with the Islamic world
and more distance from the West,
particularly the United States.

Ken Waterman, another first-year
law student agreed. "It would be un-
fair usurpation of our right to choose
how we want to use our most valu-
able resource, our time. "

press conference. Nader began by
saying that student interest in social
activism signifies the end of the
1980s.
Herzig said that she plans to meet
with Dean Bollinger of the Law

There is "definitely student interest,"
she said.

they were misinformed complaints,"
Baumann said of assembly members'
criticisms on Tuesday.
Assembly members had two
main questions about Dudley's ac-
tion: whether it was legal under
MSA rules and whether the process
would take up an excessive amount
of meeting time.
"I would question whether that's
even in order," said Melissa Burke,
an LSA representative, adding that
MSA's meetings would last "eight
hours instead of five."
Chapter 21, section 25 of MSA's
Compiled Code states, "The BPC
will hold hearings for all groups re-
questing funds for that month before
formulating budget recommendations
for approval from the Assembly."
"I don't think this is the proper
way to deal with the problem we're
having," Burke said.
At Tuesday's meeting, LSA Rep.
Lisa Schwartzman supported the
right of a student group to address
the assembly during constituents'
time to request a funding adjustment.
Dudley argued that student groups
must follow the appeals process out-
lined in MSA's Compiled Code.
"I think it's important that con-
stituents have the right to address the
assembly," Schwartzman said,
adding that Dudley's action was
"ridiculous."
Other representatives echoed
Schwartzman's sentiments.
"It's just totally ridiculous what
Charles proposed," said Engineering
Rep. Sreenivas Cherukuri, a BPC
member, adding that meetings would
be considerably longer under Dud-
ley's procedure.
He said he understood Dudley's
frustration, but did not believe thi4
was the right way to solve the prob
lems.
Cherukuri said the purpose of the
BPC was to "lessen work for the as-
sembly" by using a small group to
hear organizations' presentations and
"hash out the details."

A change in students' exempt sta-
tus would cost $360 million nation-
ally. At the University level, stu-
dents and the school would pay $1.5
million each.
University Chief Financial Offi-
cer Farris Womack said short-term
implications of this cost for the
University would affect programs. In
the long run, "the stream of revenue,
of which tuition is included," would
be affected, he said.
"I hope (students) will remain ex-
empt," Womack added.
Assistant Director of the Office
of Financial Aid Al Hermsen said he
was unsure what the University's re-
sponse would be if campus-em-
ployed students were required to pay
social security.
"We could possibly increase the
students' budget," Hermsen said, re-

lining up against the latest deficit-re-
duction package yesterday, even as
Democratic leaders and the Bush ad-
ministration haggled over the finish-
ing touches.
It was unclear whether Michigan
Democrats would support the plan to
pare the deficit by $500 million over
five years - the latest of several
versions floated in months of nego-
tiations.
Representative David Bonior (D-
Mount Clemens) and John Conyers
(D-Detroit) and Sander Levin (D-
Southfield), said they would vote
yes. Bob Carr (D-East Lansing) said
he would vote no. The other
Democrats said they were undecided
or did not respond to requests for
comments.

then we'd have to come up with ad-
ditional funds. Funds are already very
tight this year," he pointed out.
Hermsen said he doubted the
University would be able to "fill in
that gap" created by students' reduced
take home pay this year, but that the
situation would have to "be treated
on a year-to-year basis."
The U.S. Senate and House of*
Representatives are also arguing
about the extension of the tax ex-
empt status of the Employer Pro-
vided Education Assistance. Butts
said the Senate supports the rein-
statement of the exempt status while
the House opposes it.
If the exemption is discontinued,
it will cost students $255 million
nationally.
No budget cuts are proposed fo4
other areas affecting University fund-
ing, Butts said.
"There are no programs that are
being severely cut." he explainedl.
