2 Great Falls Tribune Sunday, Mm ft 7 Office Accused of Scare Tactics Highway Funds Continued from page 1 Archbishop Has Support Of Cypriote NICOSIA, Cyprus (AP) BARNES QUICK Celebrates Its BOB BARNES during the campus riots at the University of California at Berkeley. It took the governor several years to get control of the board and force changes in campus policy. In the meantime, considerable damage to the prestige of the Institution developed." Champoux suld that anyone who has any knowledge of higher education knows that the Berkeley situation had nothing to do with the powers of the Board of Regents. More violent 10th ANNIVERSARY Beginning Today in am! Ten years ago when we acquired the BUICK Franchise in Great Falls and Northern Montana, we pledged a policy pf "Courteous, efficient and thorough service" as well as the most competitive new car sales and highest used cars. Continued from page 1 cuately report on the state's fi nancial operations was absurd, system units have been turn Ing out annual reports on a double entry basis for years, he said, and would continue to do so In the porposed system.

The committee chairman said that there are nine full-time certified accountants employed by the system, compared to one In the Department of Administration. Champoux said the Department of Administration had never turned out a financial report reflecting the total financial operations of the state and that it Is the department which has been negligent in informing the taxpayers how their dollars have been spent, not the system. Thirdly, referring to the list of 13 controls from which the system is supposed to be exempt If the new provision is adopted, Champoux said that some exemptions would not be made, some are trifling, some relate to programs not even in existence and a few relate to bureaucratic controls which are presently in dispute. The release then refuted Saxby's list, point by point. For instance, Champoux said that the proposal would not exempt system operations from legislative audit of their operations, as claimed by Saxby.

"The legislative auditor works for the legislature and would continue to audit units of the University System as he saw fit. Legislative auditors are continuously Many folks who were doing business with the former BUICK dealership, still aro doing business with Barnes Buick. And wo had the very pleasant oxptrionco of gaining many customers and friends in Buick, used car, and service sales. confrontations occurred at San Francisco State which had a governing board with no constitutional protection whatsoever, lie said. There have been no riots at the Universities of Georgia, Michigan, Minnesota, Colorado or others which have governing boards with constitutional status almost identical to that proposed for Montana, he said.

The real intent of the Department of Administration, Champoux said, as revealed in the letter, is that "the department is on the way to becoming the most powerful agency in state government, through its growing control over centralized funding, and it docs not want this power position threatened." Champoux said that the com mittee's aims were to: Provide more effective and rational coordination of the entire system of higher education through the Board of Regents, protect in ternal freedom in the system and to protect higher education from creeping controls from centralized bureaucracies. testify Tuesday. Beard's memo said Mitchell, as attorney general, "is definitely helping us, but cannot let it be known." Mitchell has said he did not know what arrangements existed between ITT and the convention. Late last week, however, Ed Reinecke, California's Republican lieutenant governor, offered a contradictory account by saying he gave Mitchell last spring a full briefing on plans to oring tne convention to sari Diego including an account of ITT's commitment to underwrite a major portion of the convention costs. causes us to believe we have successful in living up to our We reached an all-time high in Buick sales during the year just Archbishop Maknrios will re sign us president of Cyprus if the Synod of the Cyprus church insists despite ills over whelming popular support, in formed sources said Saturday.

Observers feel such a devel opment might push the Island into chaos or even into civil war. The synod requested Ma- karios' resignation as president two days ago, claiming he is violating canon law by holding temporal power, even though he has been president for 12 years. A massive rally in Nicosia Friday attended by a crowd of 100.000, a fifth of the Greek Cy priot population, rejected the synod demand and asked Ma karios to remain in office. But informed sources said Makarios feels he has no option but to resign, if the synod in' sists. If he refuses, the synod could then remove him from his religious position.

am a churchman first and president second and so cannot ignore the wishes of the synod," Makarios told his close associates, the informed sources reported. Observers think the tlireat of chaos and civil war is very real. If Makarios goes there is no other Greek Cypriot public figure capable of getting even half the overwhelming 95 per cent vote Makarios received in the last presidential election. Soviels Agree On Siles for Chess Contest MOSCOW (New York Times) The Soviet Union, in a major concession, has agreed to conduct the disputed chess world championship match between Boris Spassky, the Soviet title-holder, and Bobby Fischer, the challenger, in two European cities. The agreement, to play the first half of the match in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, the site preferred by Fischer, and the second half in Reykjavik, Iceland, which was Spassky's first choice, represented a compromise after the two players had failed to agree on a single city.

They havo been in this dealership since 1951; none for loss nine yoarsl at work inspecting the operations of the universities In those states with similar provisions," he said. Saxby had claimed that the proposal would exempt units from having their construction reviewed by the state architect. Yet, Champoux said, the new Science Building at the University of Montana, which has severe architectural defects, was reviewed by the state architect. Champoux thought that Saxby's statement that the proposal would exempt units from the statewide budgeting and accounting system was "an interesting charge, because it Is a system not even In existence." Saxby said the proposal would exempt the system from executive review of personnel practices.

Champoux main tained the wording does not pro hibit executive review. "Most certainly," he said, "the sys tem would not want its hiring practices subject to political manipulation. The executive branch has placed personnel on the system payroll previously and such political placements are not in the best interests of education." In conclusion, Champoux said that typical of the intent of the letter was the "McCarthyite tactic of attempting to link he campus disurbances at Berkeley to the constitutional status of a Board of Regents." Saxby had said in his letter that "an autonomous board is not responsible to the people. This was vividly demonstrated the nomination hearing. This would come only if the committee were to withdraw its report to the Senate something it has yet shown no sign of doing.

Republican members of the committee insist that denials by Kleindienst and former Asst. Atty. Gen." Richard W. McLaren that there are any link between the antitrust settlement and the convention-fi nances pledge have satisfac torily answered Anderson's allegations. And they want the in quiry concluded promptly.

But Democratic members have questions they want to ask of Mitchell and, if she appears, of Dita Beard, an ITT Washing ton lobbyist. A memo reportedly prepared by Mrs. Beard for her boss, W.R. Merriam, is the keystone of Anderson's assertions that there was direct link between the antitrust case and the ITT contribution pledge. On Saturday, an ITT spokes man said Mrs.

Beard had been located in a hospital in Denver. A report from Denver in dicated Mrs. Beard is unlikely to appear soon before the committee. Dr. Dave T.

Garland, an oste opathic physician, told news men Mrs. Beard was admitted to the Rockv Mountain Osteo pathic Center Friday nieht and is seriously ill. Garland said Mrs. Beard suf fers from angina pectoris, a heart disease, and "We're trying to prevent a coronary tnromoosis right now. Two FBI aeents reportedly were at the hospital awaiting an opportunity to serve a com mittee subpoena on the 53-year- old divorcee and mother of five children.

Mitchell who stepped down March 1 to run President Nix on's re-election campaign, is to Moroccans OK New Constitution RABAT, Morocco (AP) Moroccans voted over whelmingly Wednesday for a new constitution proposed by King Hassan II that he said would mean a gradual transformation from his role as absolute ruler to that of an arbiter. A representative sampling from partial figures released Thursday by the Ministry of the Interior showed the constitution passing with only scant developing and building public transportation facilities, In cluding airports. Grayblll, who heads the Great Falls Airport Commission, withdrew the proposal without an explanation on the floor. The section approved by dele gates broadens the present amendment in two respects be sides the legislative control. First, the amount of earmarked funds will be changed, if voters concur.

It would ear mark only gasoline and fuel taxes and gross vehicle weight foes. The present section also prevents division fees from reg istration and sale of new cars. This amounts to about $2 mil lion annually, delegates said. The other change adds sev eral other permissible uses to list. They are the costs of local government road and street systems, highway safety pro grams and driver education in' struction.

Space Shuttle Cost May Go To $66 Billion WASHINGTON (AP) A nu clear scientist who has studied space affairs says the proposed space shuttle program may cost up to $66 billion, more than the Apollo program. Dr. Ralph E. Lapp said in a letter to Science Magazine published Friday: "If we add up ail the costs, the shuttle-related space program will cost from $51 billion to $66 billion. Soviets, Libya Sign Agreement on Oil MOSCOW (New York Times) The Soviet Union announced it had signed an agreement with Libya to jointly develop and re' fine Libyan oil.

The size of the agreement, the first break in the western monopoly on Libyan oil development, was not disclosed. It was initially seen here as a pressure tactic against western oil companies more than as an m- dication that the Russians were about to paly a major role in the Libyan oil industry.

I FORECAST Snow flurries are forecast for the northeastern U.S. Sunday and rain for the eastern seaboard as a cold front prevails over most of the country, except for mild weather in the southwestern states. (AP Map) WASHINGTON (AP) Senate Inquiry into an out-of-court settlement of an antitrust action against the giant International Telephone and Telegraph Corp.

is gathering political overtones and could become an election-year issue. The reported discovery Saturday of a missing witness did little to clear the air. The Senate Judiciary Committee began a special hearing Thursday into columnist Jack Anderson's allegations that ITT received a favorable settlement after it had pledged $400,000 for the Republican National Convention in San Diego next August Deputy Atty. Gen. Richard G.

Kleindienst requested the hearing, saying he wanted the air cleared before he succeeds John N. Mitchell as attorney general. Earlier the committee bad given unanimous approval to Kleindienst's nomination and so reported to the Senate. Technically, the special hearing which is to be resumed Tuesday is not a reopening of AC Force Continued from page 1 of corparate and executive positions, Roberts said. These layoffs will not be decided by seniority but by the need for particular positions, he said.

A few salaried empolyees have been transferred but most have retired, some early. A few vacancies were created by attrition and these positions were not filled. Only a handful, Roberts said, were let go. Great Foils Tribune Establish May 14, imj Published every morning by Great Falls Tribune Company, 121 4th Street North, Great Falls, Montana.
