Draft registration stalled in Senate
From Kansan staff and wire reports
A U.S. Senate filibuster yesterday temporarily stalled a vote to renew peaceetime draft registration.
The measure already has been approved by the House and appears to be favored by a majority of the senate in voting Sen. Nancy Kassandra R-KA; the bill to include the registration of women as well as men.
The filibuster is being led by Sen. Mark Hatfield, R-Ore., an opponent of registration who wants to block a final vote on President Carter's request for four million to register approximately four million 18- and 20-year-old men.
HATFIELD HAS agreed to allow a vote on the final passage of the bill if the funding for it is reduced to $4.7 million.
Locally, KU students had opinions on Kassenbaum's argument that female registration is a "matter of simple common sense and equity."
Kerry Kapper, Lawrence graduate student, said, "I think it is too bad that the Senate didn't agree with Kassenbaum's suggestion.
"If we look at the world as a whole, the trend is that women are involved
in all aspects of the military, and I think that they should be."
Stephanie Walters, Atchison senior, said she thought it was contradictory that the government said it wanted to make headway with women's rights but did not include women in a draft registration plan.
PHYLLIES MAUTON. Merriam graduate student, said, "I favored the registration plan because we are the only country in the western world that doesn't have compulsory service. I think that everybody should have to do it. It's like taxes — all we owe something to our country."
One student, who asked not to be identified, said that it was fortunate that women would not be included in a registration plan.
"The problem is that women did not have the opportunity to make the decision," the student said. "It was by a bunch of patronizing old men."
A few students were pleased with the Senate decision.
"I'm glad it was voted down." Elizabeth Hamilton, Pelu, Peru, graduate student, said, "I'm not for the ERA and I'm not for a women'sraft either. I just don't want to have o go to war."

Local car sales on the upswing
The automobile industry in the United States has been losing its fight with the recession, but recent declines in local interest rates have given Lawrence dealers a reason to be optimistic.
By RANDY MARTIN Staff Writer
Several Lawrence car dealers said this week that they had noticed an increase in car sales that might mean the industry is on the road to recovery.
Sales have increased to the levels of a year and a half ago, but profits still have not been sufficient to make up for the loss. The lean months of January and February are
The recent increase in the availability of money in Lawrence is the reason for increased sales, they require higher rates have made loans easier to obtain.
John Ellena, general manager of Jack
JON BOMBERGER, owner of Landmark Ford, said he felt car sales are increasing and will be stable soon.

"We have felt very fortunate over the last few months," Ellen said. "We have been able to stay in the black."
One reason Ellena's dealership has been able to thwart the recent economic trend has be the new X-body car that Buick sells. Ellena said. This car comes in four engines and front wheel drive. Sales of the cars have been hull all year, he said.
The local Honda dealership, also operated by Ellena, can sell all the cars they can obtain Ellena said. When the new Honda plant in Ohio is completed and the gasefficient Honda is more efficient, the Honda dealership may have a larger supply, he said.
DARREL POSTLETHWAITE, sales manager of Dale Willey Pontiac-Cadillac, said customers' reluctance to buy big cars had subsided and "people
are coming out of the cupboards" after having waited to buy large cars. Many regular customers who delayed buying their cars are buying now, he said.
Used car sales are increasing, Ellena said. At the Ford, Pontiac-Cadillac, and Buck- Oldsmobile dealerships, a large number of used cars are also being traded.
Even with the recent increase in sales, inflation is still eating away dollars, and each dealer pointed out that the economy is still hurting everyone, both on the buying and selling end of the deals.
But, in Kansas City, Mo., interest rates have not declined. Bill Allen, owner of Bill Allen Chevrolet, said recent legislation in Kansas allowed the interest rate ceiling to be lifted, thereby giving the banks confidence to lend more money. Missouri's interest rate ceiling is still in effect.
