Governors warn miners of presidential action
Washington (AP)—Governors of three coal producing states said yesterday that presidential intervention in the industry could be prevented only if the United Mine Workers agreed to tentative contract terms already negotiated.
airfield West Virginia Gov. Jay Rockefeller, has declared his "absolute conviction" that President Jimmy Carter would intervene soon, said the only other way to end the 80-day old strike is for the industry to accept a tentative contract already negotiated between the union and a major independent operator.
The statement came only hours after Carter told reporters he had decided to forgo immediate intervention because the parties negotiate with each other."
negozi. A associated Press-NBC poll taken Tuesday and Wednesday showed that almost two-thirds of the American people polled think Carter should invoke the Tatt-Hartley Act to try to get the nation on a path toward growth, at least for an 80-day online-office period.
The back-to-work thrust of the Taft-
KU to change official policy on sexual bias
By BRIAN SETTLE Staff Writer
A phone call today should resolve the issue of protection against discrimination based on sexual preference at the University of Kansas.
Todd VanLaningham, former director of Gay Services of Kansas, and Clarence Dillingham, associate director of Affirmative Action, will discuss a statement today from Mike Davis, University counsel, that clarifies the issue of discrimination based on sexual preference in the job action plan approved last December.
When the plan was approved by Chancellor Arche R, Dykes, VanLianingham was not satisfied that gays and lesbians were fully protected from discrimination.
BECAUSE OF this, VanLaningham, through the Affirmative Action Board, requested that Davis prepare a statement guarding his rights and responsibilities based on sexual preference.
Wednesday, VanLanning wrote Davis asking why the statement had not been made.
However, Dilgham said yesterday that Davis' statement had been sent to Afaf.
RITTER IS out of town until Monday and was unavailable for comment.
"I think it may have been Bonnie's intent to draft a response to Todd after she came in with the idea. He emphasized that the University had taken every step possible to cover discrimination based on University internal affairs and he was satisfied with the new code."
THE ISSUE OF discrimination based on sexual preference stems from the request last spring by the Affirmative Action Board and Vamlaningham to include a sexual preference clause in the plan that was being drafted at the time.
The opening statement has been changed to say the plan will prohibit discrimination on the base of "race, religion, color, sex, gender" and "age, age (as specified by law) or arrest."
Another change in the plan is a provision for training programs to help supervisors learn to apply the new guidelines. Such programs have been offered by the University but this is the first time these guidelines are mentioned in the affirmative action plan.
DYKES WAS expected to approve the plan in September. In late November, he announced that the plan was still being studied in hopes of applying it to all three campuses (Wichita, Kansas City and Nashville), instead of just the Lawrence campus.
Shrirley Domer, assistant to the chancellor, recently said that designers of the plan considered making the plan applicable to all campuses, but the structure of the Kansas City and Wichita campuses make such a plan impossible.
Bank company ousts directors linked to Lance
Voted out were Thomas G. Wyman, Jorge Pereira and W.W. Johnson. The move is subject to stockholder approval at the annual meeting April 26.
WASHINGTON (UPI)—Financial General Bankanches Inc. yesterday outed three directors who were associated with the bank's investment finance to take over the bank holding company.
Wyman and Pereira reported to the Securities and Exchange Commission that they sold all their shares to private purchaser, and that the market that exceeded market value of the stock.
Johnson represented Jackson Stephens, a major stockholder who was named as a defendant in a federal court suit alleging that he and Lance were parties to an unlawful conspiracy secretly to acquire control of Financial General.
IN A RELATED ACTION, Judge Oliver Gasch in U.S. District Court granted Lance a five-day extension before he must give a statement on his role in the purported takeover.
south, five percent said Carter should order the miners back to work, and 28 percent opposed it. Seven percent were undecided.
Hartley Act was described briefly to each of the 1,000 adults interviewed by telephone. They were then asked if they thought Carter should invoke the act.
invoking the little-use law is one of the options that Carter has been considering.
Meanwhile, the spreading effects of the coal strike reached the auto industry yesterday as two General Motors plants in Kansas opened one-day forwards for 8,000 workers.
Ohio, West Virginia, and Maryland braced for power cutouts that seemed likely to bring more drastic layoffs next week.
And officials of the Tennessee Valley Authority, the nation's largest utility, said the cutbacks could spread to it by early March. The cuts more than 100,000 in seven states.
Meanwhile, pleas for voluntary power-saving or orders for cutbacks not drastic enough to affect jobs were in effect in a wide swat of states—from Missouri and Illinois to Alabama, Virginia and Maryland—that depend on Appalachian coal.
Indiana is under the most serious power curtailments—25 percent of industries in the state.
- about 300 National Guardsm remained on duty yesterday protecting coal shipments from non-union mines to fuel-short utilities. But another 300 guardsm were being deactivated because there has been no significant violence.
Yesterday, before the auto layoffs, an estimated 3,400 workers were laid off at plants in Indiana because of the curtailments.
The auto industry employs 730,000 wage-earners nation-wide.
