Campus Cops May Use Bicycle

The bicycle was one of the old lost-and-found bicycles and is registered at the Lawrence Police Department to the Traffic Department, Capt. Bob Ellison said.
Ellison said the University of California at Berkeley had been using bicycles for some time.
"But then, they've got a flat campus," Ellison said.
Former Filipino Rebel Seeks Aid for Masses
Filipino people need the aid of the United States to support their struggle for democracy, Luis M. Taruc, former leader of the rebel People's Liberation Army of the Philippines, said last night in the Kansas Union.
"I'm seeking an ally in the American people, but we need aid directly supplied to the masses of the Philippines rather than to the government of President Ferdinand
The Philippine government is presently under martial law. Before this, Taruc said, the country was in chaos; people were homeless; the police were on call; and social institutions were in unheal.
"Because of martial law, order has temporarily returned to the country," Tauric said. "What we must strive for now is to hold presentment of a true democracy in the Philippines."
Tauric said any form of a dictatorship would fall in the Philippines.
"Even though the dictatorship of Marcos is mild, it will ultimately fail because the will of the masses for democracy, if given direct aid from the Americans, will force the Marcos government to hold new elections in the country," he said.
ALTHOUGH THE peaceful revolution in the Philippines is most evident in land reform, Taruc said, a program to provide the poor with better housing among the common people may be failing.
"I feel it is my duty to the people of the Philippines to fight for land reform and the establishment of democracy," he said. "That is the reason why I am here in the United States. We need the assistance of the United States to organize our government, to train our people and to educate our country."
Tarue said that the Philippines, if given the chance, would choose democracy over conspiracy.
"The American image is better than that of the Communists," he said.
TARUC SAID HIS anti-imperialist beliefs had appeared to some be anti-American. He said he does oppose what he called the imperialists of the United States, big businesses that he said had exploited the Filipinos.
Tarue was imprisoned for 15 years for insurrection in the Maros government, he
Although the American ideal will prevail throughout the world, the role of the United States in Philippine affairs must change, Taruc said.
"However, while I was in prison, I read the philosophies of the Communist and Christian groups."
couldn't accept the Commistian doctrines," he said. " Thus I received them."
"THE POLICY MAKERS of the United States must learn to respect the values of the masses when they offer their support in front of us, instead of trying to exploit us," he said.
Tarue said he would continue to seek a representative Philippine government official in the UN.

"Our revolution in land reform may be slow, but at least it isn't bloody," he said. He said he thought the adoption of the American democratic form of government would suit the needs of the Filippos. But he was disappointed that government will be long and hard, he said. Meanwhile, he said, the Philippines is dependent on the United States for support.
