LAIRD UM bRRFORECAST ENDOF DEFERMENTS

Defense Secretary MelvinLaird announced the planning offurther changes in draft pro-cedures, including the elimin-ation of most deferments, whilespeaking on television last-Sunday.

One of the changes might bethe elimination of student defer-ments and occupational defer-ments. The proposed ad-justments would not be retro-active; those already holding de-ferments would not be affected.

Laird said that PresidentNixon "wants to move in thedirection so that all young menare treated equally and fairly."

Prof. Irwin Sizer, Dean of theGraduate School, said that it hadbeen thought for some time inWashington that once the lotterycame into effect, defermentswould be revised. For the future,he foresees military servicecoming either at age 19 or im-mediately after college.

MIT enrollmentDean Sizer pointed out that

the changes would have no im-mediate effect on MET, saying "Idon't anticipate any impact onenrollment in the near future."The earliest he felt effects mightbe noticeable is next fall, whileby January, 1971, there will be aminimum of deferments.

Dean Sizer pointed out thatmany congressmen approved thenew lottery system with theunderstanding that the wholesystem would be revised soon,

The Administration's pro-posals will be presented to Con-gress next month, along withplans for implementing a vol-unteer army. Since the 2-S de-ferment is statutory, Nixon can-not eliminate it without the ap-proval -of Congress. He can, how-ever, eliminate occupational de-ferments by executive order.Hardship and medical defer-ments will not be affected bythe new plan.

The faculty, meeting in emer-gency session Thursday after-noon, overwhelmingly passed amotion condemning the forcibleoccupation of PresidentHowardJohnson's office by stulent pro-testors and calling for discipli-nary action against those in-volved;

Amendments to Course XHead Raymond Baddour's initialmotion were defeated or wlth-drawn. A motion to set up agroup to negotiate with the oc-cupiers was defeated, while amotion commending the Disci-pline Committee for its recentperformance was tabled.

The meeting; packed al-though it had been called only afew hours before it convened,was marked by considerable in-dignation over the actions ofRLSDS, MIT SDS, and NAC inoccupying Johnson's office. Itwas also characterized by theinevitable confusion which re-sults when large bodies attemptto resolve complicated issues in ashort period of time.

The meeting began shortlyafter 3 pm with a report fromProvost Jerome B. Wiesner con-cerning the occupiers'demandswhich were presented to theadministration in the form of anultimatum Wednesday. These in-cluded reinstating Mike Albert,rescinding all past discipline, andabolishing the Discipline Com-mittee. The ultimatum was pre-sented to Associate Provost Wal-ter Rosenblith by Mike O'Con-ner at 10:15 Wednesday. Theultimatum called on the adminis-tration to meet the demands by

-the judicial process part of anadministration attempt to sup-press radical opinion?

Due processOsborne repeatedly defended

both the Committee's actionsand its attitudes against attacksby Albert and Execomm mem-ber Wells Eddleman '71, XIIB.To Eddleman's charge that se-veral items of due process (speci-fically, not giving the defendantsenough time to gather witnessesand scheduling a second hearingduring Christmas vacation), Os-borne replied that the defen-dants, if they felt these condi-tions substantively altered theconsideration of their case,could apply for a re-hearing.

Albert angrily insisted thatOsborne was not really represen-tative of the Committee andcould not claim that the Com-mittee would or could pursue aliberal course. He pointed outthat during the hearings he at-tended,lamson made most ofthe procedural decisions withoutcaucussing the other judiciaries.Furthermore, he charged that

the Committee had no hand inscheduling the second hearingduring vacation, that Johnsonand Lamson had decided on thedate.

Political oppressionBut Albert was more intent

on pursuing his charge of politi-cal oppression. He repeated astatement he had made earlier toExecomm, claiming that the ad-ministration planned to bringhim up before the DisciplineCommittee three times, withthe final charge being that hehad interfered with the CampusPolice. Only because Lamson"lost his cool" was he expelledon different charges.

Osborne resisted any at-tempts to label the Committee'sactions political. Briefly describ-ing the executive' session wherethe expulsion decision wasmade, he insisted that the Com-mittee members had been verycareful to weigh only the evi-dence presented, disregardingany political overtones.

On the overall issue of over-hauling the disciplinary commit-tee procedure, Osborne believedit to be a matter of the Commit-tee members more scrupulouslyobserving the fundamentals ofjudicial process. A delegate fromthe floor questioned what action

Democratic as' it is, passed afiscally irresponsible budget.Now he must valiently cut outbudget money from his depart-ments so that not too much is

i spent, thus preventing inflationwhile at the same time...

The problem is, he's 'cuttingin the wrong places. In terms oftechnology, this country could

c keep quite safe for several yearsif research which is missionorientated in the defense sensewere curtailed. The lead whichwe hold in technology there,especially in 'electronics guid-ance, propulsion and so on, cankeep us safe from, whateverCommunist Menace there is forsome time to come.

Where we need research, basicand lots of it now, is in thesocial sciences and the ecologicalsciences. That is where themoney will be least available inthis year of the balanced budget,not in Defense. The NationalInstitutes of Health won't haveit and the Defense Departmentwon't be able- to spend what ithas. Pollution Studies (some ofwhich can be done quite cheaplyfrom satellites) will be neglectedin favor of another rocket whichmight make it possible for thesame work to be done by men inanother eight years or so.

So though the Nixon ad-ministration talked about re-ordering its priorities when itclosed the NASA center, theyhad it- wrong. The prioritieshaven't changed. The same pro-grams which the Johnson Ad-minstration had are being run bythe same bureaus in Washington.All we can expect this timearound is less of the same.

Well, the latest NJASA cut-backs in -personnel and projects

-seem to have emphasized asomewhat forgotten fact aboutthe Nixon Administration-itsRepublicanism. Welcome, oneand all, to the age of the bal-anced budget.

Balanced, that is to say, inmore ways than one. TakeNASA as a case in point. Spacemoney is supposed to be reallyfree for use in other areas, andthe cutbacks currently beingannounced by Thomas 0. Painein Washington presage reductionfor the next fiscal year. Butwhen you look at the list ofprojects which will be funded,that doesn't seem right at all.

NASA is stretching out -theApollo program all right, butthey are also asking for fiondingfor a space shuttle which mayrun to the hundred milliondollar class in a year's time.They cut out a mission to Marswhich was unmanned, but man-ned -projects are still in the'sad-dle.

In fact the whole picture,including the closing of theNASA Electronics ResearchCenter, looks just one way.Space research is getting axed infavor of glamor(i.e. linanned andexpensive) projects. The DefenseDepartment is in thesamesort ofbind-because of the Mansfieldamendment they will have topull out of some areas of basicresearch in favor of missionorientated studies, and the

.people who lose support maywell be left out in the cold forlack of comparable supportelsewhere.

Why? Well, Nixon would haveit that Congress, nasty and

This issue brings Volume 89 of The Tech to aclose. While it is a time of transition and renewalfor the newspaper as new editors with new ideastake over, the Institute whose events we havecovered for the past year remains adrift. It-andthe nation- is searching for the self confidenceand sense of purpose which have been eroded bythe war and our increasing recognition of the gapbetween the nation's professed principles and itsactions.

The principles which formed the basis for thesense of purpose which united the Institute in thefourties and fifties were a belief in a traditionalform of academic freedom, service to the nation,and professional education. Service to the nationand following the wishes of the governmentseemed synonomous.

Today we are witnessing a disintegration of thatconsensus. Not only has a generation learned fromthe Vietnam war that it cannot trust its owncountry; it has also learned from experiencingaffluence that it can do without it'. Consequently,more and more undergraduates have become dis-enchanted with the Institute's emphasis on pro-fessional education at the undergraduate levelwhich seems to fit one only to be an acquisitive,hyper-efficient cog in a machine that. he can'tcontrol and MIT's complicity in monstrosities likeMIRV.

Members of this community who worry aboutprinciples and issues are now locked in a battle todetermine the priorities and principles upon whichthe Institute is to be based. Recent politicalactions by a variety of groups may be looked uponas probes to determine what these principles noware and open them to question. Ironically, in theirsearch for the bedrock of principles on which theInstitute is based, activist groups (though theywon't admit it for their own reasons) have foundthat there are none!

What does this mean? It means that out of

conscious or unconscious recognition that theInstitute's basic sense or purpose is shaky, theadministration has consistently based its actionson the need to minimize conflict rather thanuphold any basic articles of faith. Virtually anygroup seeking consessions has been granted some-thing in the hopes of preventing massive conflict.

This policy of rushing madly about greasingeach squeaky wheel will work-only as a stopgapmeasure. If continued indefinitely, the result willbe an inevitable fragmentation of the institution aseach interest group finds that this is the way to getthings done. As long as this philosophy motivatesInstitute priorities, whatever common purposeexists between groups will diminish.

What will it take to prevent fragmentation ofthe Institute and (in a similar way) the entirecountry? It will take a concerted'effort to redefinethe principles and sense of purpose which haveheld the campus together in previous years. Wedetect little of this going on now, partly becauseeveryone seems to be busily putting out brush firesand partly because of the 'conflict within the-community between the WW-I4/Cold War conceptof service to the nation which now masquerades asacademic freedom and recently popularized con-cepts of responsibility to humanity.

It may be that the Institute will remain in itspresent state of confusion until the governmentcan put its house in order and tell the SilentMajority that our national task at this point intime is to attain social justice, save the environ-ment, and stop the arms race. Since the SilentMajority takes its orders from whoever gives them,this should restore our unity and sense of purpose.If the Institute is to survive as a viable entity untilthat time, however, we must begin now to searchfor some philosophical foundations on which wecan rebuild our sense of purpose and confidence inthe future of the Institute.

SS-9's required to effectivelydestroy the US Minutemanforce. Today, in newspapersacross the country, indeed in theminds of most Americans, it isan accepted fact that the SS-9does, in fact, carry the payloadand has the capability publicizedby Laird and Foster. It is pasttime to stop these hawks fromtwisting facts to form the fic-

ion they are foisting on atrusting public.

Meanwhile, back on CapitolHill, Congress is out to lunch, ormore properly, junketing aroundthe world or fence-mending athome, and quite content to cedethe initiative to the DoD anddelay entering the fray untilafer President Nixon's State ofthe Union message.

Until Congress wakes up, thefight between the forces of rea-son and the powers of ruin willbe waged in conference roomsbetween the public senrants ofthe Arms Control and Disarnma-ment Agency and the Pentagon'sfast-shooting,- high scoring allstar right wing.

By Peter Peckarsky hence making it possible for the-services to squelch the systemsanalysts, the reversion to pre-MacNamara methods was initiat-ed. It appears that the regressionis complete. Most, if not all,effective civilian control of thePentagon has disappeared.

Well-intentioned men who arepatriotic citizens, good fathersand faithful husbands, and whosincerely believe that a success-ful solution to the SALT talkswould not be in the best inter-ests of this nation are probablythe parties responsible for thelatest wild application of worst-case contingency planning in thistransparent attempt create facts.Last spring, Defense SecretaryLaird propagated the notion thatthe SS-9, the latest Soviet Inter-continental ballistic missile

(Continued from page 1.)was rarely able to reach a con-sensus. Those attending had dif-ficulty- deciding on their pruposefor gatherin-, let alone any spe-cific plans for action.

An early issue was whether ornot-there should be a chairman.Jeff Mefrmelstein '71 had beenacting as de facto head, butsome of the anarchists forced avote. T*he assembly decidedthere should be a chairman, butnever officially selected one.

ChaosChaos rapidly developped.

MITSDS insisted that the groupadopt their demand that no GErecruiters be allowed on campus.There was a lot of debate, butno vote was taken. The demon-strators wound up split into twocamps: The "ocunterculture"faction interested in live-in tac-tics and life style, and a politicalwing pre-occupied with revolu-tion.

A final important issue cameup when the question of wheth-er to stay in the office or leavewas posed. "We've accomplishedour purpose, we've occupied theoffice, so why sit around and getbusted?" was one sentiment.Again, no vote. w as taken. Somepeople, worried about a bust,began preparing escape routes.Rope was brought in case awindow exit should becomenecessary.

This type of ideological dis-cussion began the meeting, butas the meeting faded out person-al arguments prevailed. One ofthe MITSDS members objectedto the attitude another donion-strator had about workers. -

was denied the UAP; he was toldto "sit down and shut up" bythe chairman during his cross-examnination of a witness. As thehearing was terminated andnever recontinued in conditionsless chaotic, Mike never was ableto complete his defence or to bejudged on the charge nowpublicly cited as a reason for hisexpu.lL1on.

Prior to the December 23hearing, Mike and his fatherrequested an extension. Thisrequest was never transmitted tothe Discipline Committee byyour office.

It has also been suggestedthat the Institute paid the airfare for the return of somemembers of the committee whileneglecting to do so for thedefendant.

At this same hearing, otherdefendants were convicted ofcharges without having a chanceto render a defence; they werenot even notified of the hearing.That they have the right ofappeal is somewhat beside. thepoint.

In judging Mike Albert on the23rd, the Discipline committeewas in effect passing judgmenton offenses allegedly committedagainst themselves. This goesagainst the rules of the commit-tee. Even if this rule had notexisted, the haste with which thecase was ruled upon was such asto cast doubt upon the objectivi-ty. of the committee. It appearsthat the major interest was notjustice for Mike Albert, but aprevention of further disruption.

Questions as to the chargesThe charge of "active partici-

pation in a demonstration atwhich violence occured" is high-ly questionable. For years MITpeople have been in on-campusriots at which violence occurred.The level of prosecution was farlower in these cases (cf. Bakerriots, tuition riots, et. al.). Thecharge also contravenes theguidelines for acceptable protestlaid down by the FlemingsPanel

the charge of insulting anInstitute Officer is also interest-ing. To our knowledge, thechairmen of faculty committeeshave never before had thatstatus.

Defendants were charged re:the G.E. demonstration althoughthe one official "word" at thescene had been, in effect, "Leave

in Johnson's office. Faculty andadministration officials ceasedtheir attem'pts to force their wayinto Killian's office, and relativecalm prevailed. Students rappedwith the patrolemen stationed inJohnson's office and the admin-istrators that checked in everyfew minutes to see what washappening.

Peace brokenThe uneasy peace was shat-

tered momntarily late in theevening. Wiesner forced his wayinto the inner office to retrievesome duplicating equipment.Flanked by two Campus Patrol-men, the provost shoved past thestudents guarding the door. Ap-parently, SDS had been usingthe copying equipment to printleaflets.

Earlier in the day leaders ofthe action attempted to meetwith Johnson to discuss the

RLSDS damands. Led by GeorgeKatsiaficas and Jeff Mermelstein,the contingent, armed andblasted away with cap guns, metwith Simonides outside John-son's office. Provost P'iesner andAssociate Provosts Rosenblithand Gray later joined the discus-sion.

"Absurdity"Wiesner called the ultimatum

"an absurdity" and said that theadministration would not negoti-ate under the threats of violence.And since the administrationnever presented the SDS with anultimatum, he continued, theradicals shouldn't issue one tothem. As for dissolving the facul-ty Discipline Committee,Simonides said that such actionwas not within Johnson's power.An augmented faculty commit-tee is considering an overhaul ofthe judicial procedure.

this open letter to you is thebeginning of our implementationof the General Assembly motionthat demands the reinstatementof Micahel Albert. In support ofthis demand, we ask the follow-ing questions of procedure, thecharges, and the motives.

Questions of proper procedreMike was given anly ninety-

in question were of a politicalnature and that the present dis-ciplinary machinery was probab-ly inappropriate for handlingsuch matters: "...it is clear thatthe machinery itself must bereexamined from this point ofview... Dissent and its role in thequestioning of -the goals andfunctions of a university aresignificant and new elements indisciplinary matters, and wemust ensure that our disciplinary-machinery is appropriate tothem." I

The present disciplinary ma-chinery at MIT rests on theimplicit assumption that a con-sensus exists about certain rulesof personal behavior within agenerally accepted structure ofthe Institute and of society, sothat disciplinary functions arereduced to assessments by afriendly, paternal authoritywhether or not some of the ruleshave been violated and to whatextent.

The essence of a "political"situation, however, is that thelegitimacy of certain activities ofthe institution is being chal-lenged and the authority underwhich these activities are carriedout is being questioned by atleast a substantial minority ofcommunity members. Thus theimplicit assumption of consensusbecomes unjustified.

Under these circumstances,disciplinary procedures requireat least the full protection of thelegal safeguards evolved by dem-

ocratic Societies, in which theexistence of conflicts of interestsand purposes between membergroups is recognized. The tradi-tional university-style judiciaryprocedure, becau, it lacks thesubstantial guarantees of legalproceedings, risks to be viewed,and actually acts, as partisan andoppressive and is likely to gener-ate further confrontations. Thisin turn places an inadequatelyprepared Disciplinary Commit-tee in the untenable position ofcarrying out what are effectivelycontempt proceedings stemmingfrom challenges to its legallylather shaky authority.

For these reasons, briefly andinadequately presented here, webelieve that no further hearingsshould be held by the DisciplineCommittee for the events ofOctober November 1969 andthat a thorough review of disci-plinary machinery at MIT shouldbe carried out.

We also recommend that, inthe interest of the principles ofjustice as interpreted by courtsof law operating with maximumrestraint, penalties already asses-sed for actions connected withthose events be rescinded byamnesty.

MITSDS

· MITSDS and RLSDSachieved a rapprochment on thecrucial issues of tactics, but-havestill not agreed on goals.Although many MITSDS joinedthe RL faction in a meetingMonday night, far fewer cameWednesday evening. The leafletsdistributed by the two groupsreflect this split. A handoutWednesday morning, signed"SACC, RLSDS, and all goodpeople everywhere," demandedthe "rescinding of all past disci-pline and the abolition of thediscipline committee." MITSDShad its own'leaflet, with its ownset of demands headed by "NoGE recruiters on campus" and"Sack Ciulla."

SACC

SACC's role in the demon-strations has been rather nebu-lous. The group had a meetingMonday night. After first consid-ering issues they had been deal-ing with for the past severalmonths (for example, theincreasing shortage of non-military jobs for scientists),SACC members moved to a briefdiscussion of Mike Albert's ex-pulsion. Concluding that theissue evidently was a case ofpolitical repression, they invitedthe SDS in to discuss the role ofSACC in the Thursday action.

SACC stated Thursday thatalthough they support the de-mands of RLSDS, SACC is.-notco-sponsoring the RLSDS live-in.Representatives emphasized thatSACC decided to co-sponsoronly a rally Thursday to discussthe demands presented to theadministration. Live-in handoutshad listed SACC as a sponsor.

NUCThe last of the groups affiliat-

ed with yesterday's demonstra-tion is NUC, a broad coalition offaculty and staff. NUC metTuesday night to decide on itsstand. When contacted by TheTech, steering committee mem-ber Steve Watt related that NUChad adopted a position of fullsupport for the RLSDS demandsand would participate in theThursday action. As yet, NUChas made no plans for Wednes-day's faculty meeting.

Dick King,and Werner Schlegal

Yesterday's actions were notspontaneous-before the leftistgroups could join together for amassive rally, long hours of pre-paration, discussion, and com-promise were necessary.

SACC, RLSDS, MITSDS, andthe New University Conferenceall met individually, and in somecases jointly, during the nightthis past week. Reports fromthese meetings help clarify theissues and tactics of Thursday'sactions.

RLSDS

RLSDS met with MITSDSMonday night to begin planningan action for later in the week.Originally offered was the sug-gestion of a mass rally Tuesdayevening to create support for the,cause, to emphasize the politicsbehind Mike's expulsion (ratherthan just the mechanics), and toestablish participatory demo-cracy. The idea was droppedwhen others pointed out thatthere was not enough time forthe needed publicity.

Consensus coalesced aroundplans for an action Thursday.RLSDS decided to deliver anultimatum that would be, be-cause of time limitations, all butimpossible to meet.

Another RLSDS meeting wascalled Wednesday night to elari-fy plans for the rally. Expecting

or be prosecuted;" they left.Questions of motivation

These are the questions thatthe General Assembly is mostwordried about. The way inwhich Mike Albert has beensingled out, poorly charged, andpoorly judged leads to manymisgivings on our part as topresent and future motivation ofthe system of MIT justice. TheGeneral Assembly is forced tobelieve that the committee'sfeelings toward Mike Albert'spolitics and actions unrelated tothe actual charges have inter-fered with the due process. Thename for this abberation,whether it be conscious of un-conscious, is political repression.

On these grounds, we demandhis reinstatement and an examin-ation of the processes of justice.Due to time considerations, weask that you reply specificallyand in detail to the above pointsby Tuesday, January 20.

THE TECH FRIDAY, JANUARY 16, 1970 PAGE 7... . . ~ - . .1 I . . .. -. .

Over 200 faculty membershave signed a petitiorn-calling onthe MIT faculty and Corporationto take a "firm public positionon MIRV, military research, andthe arms race," according toProfessor Francis Low of theDepartment of Physics. The peti-tion was circulated following theNovember Actions by an ad hocgroup of faculty members (manyof whom were members of theUnion of Concerned Scientists)who sought to prevent the tac-tics of the Novemger Actionsfrom diverting attention fromthe issue of war research at MIT.

The text of the petition is asfollows:

We the undersigned membersof the MIT faculty believe thatthe tactics of the November 4thdemonstrations must not divertattention from the very impor-tant issue of military research atMIT.

In the walke of the Poundscommission report the time hasarrived for substantive action.We agree with the Pounds com-mission recommendation thatthe Special Laboratories beretained. Their resources shouldbe devoted to the pressing needsof society. The academic yearproposed by President Johnsonfor the first test is not too long atime to seek the beginnings of asolution.

However, the issue of MIRVhas a special urgency. TheInstrumentation Laboratory isnow engaged in a program toimprove MIRV guidance; thegoal of hundred-meter accuracyhas been mentioned. We haveyet to hear a reasoned defense ofthe need for such a small circularerror as any part of a stabledeterrent. With such accuracy,each warhead in a MIRVed mis-sile could reliably find anddestroy an enemy missile even inits hardened silo. Thus the pro-

gram has the appearance of anattempt to achieve first strikecapability, and is bound to be sointerpreted by the Soviet Union.

The coincidence between thefirst diplomatic measurestowards arms limitation and theserious re-examination of war-related research at MIT gives us aspecial opportunity and a specialresponsibility: let us at leastdefer all work to improve theaccuracy of MIRV missiles. Letus, by a strong public statement,point out to Americans thatsuch weapons do not add to oursecurity, but undermine it.

There will not be many morechances. Next June may be toolate. We must for once enlist thejudgement of informed andresponsible men against the armsrace. The MIT faculty and Cor-poration by firm public positioncan perhaps help end a danger asgreat asmen have ever faced

PUCKSTEERS SLIPIN FINAL PERIOD

By J. KavazanjianOn Wednesday, the varsity

hockey team met St. Anslems, anewcommer to the schedule. St.Anslems came away with theirfirst victory of this, their firstvarsity intercollegiate hockeyseason. The final score was 6-1.

The game appeared to be areplay of the Holy Cross game ofa week ago as the visitors pouredin five goals in the third periodto seal up an otherwise closegame. The Tech six jumped intoan early lead in the first periodThe score came on a power play-with a St. Arnslems player off theice for checking in the offensivezone. Andy Jarrel '71 converteda pass from Bill Strensrud '71for the lone Tech score. Neitherteam enjoyed a strong advantagefor the rest of this period or forjust about all of the secondperiod. The Engineers appearedto have a slight edge but theymissed on several good oppor-tunities. Bill Barber '71 had hisgoal-a-game streak stopped atseven, also missing on a fewgood chances.

With about a minute to playin the second period, St.Anslems scored to even the gameat 1-1 and it appeared that aclose third period was also instore. The third period wascharacterized by the Techsquad's inability to pick up loosepucks and St. Anslems' affinityfor them. The visitors pouncedon every free puck in sight andpounded five goals past goalieKen Lord '71. The loss sent theEngineers' record to a dismal2-7.

(Continued fiom page 3)5 pm Wednesday or face un-specied consequences. Wiesnersaid that the administration re-ceived a number of phone callswhich threatened consequencesto the Institute if the demandswere not met. He concluded bysaying that he told the radicalgroups that he had neither theauthority nor the inclination togrant the demands.

SJohnson then addressed -thefaculty, stressing the need forunity and the need to take ac.-tion on the present situation inorder to avoid further polariza-tion. He was applauded when hedeclared, "One thing I will notdo is negotiate on the basis of anultimatum or the occupation of

an office."After a few brief comments

by faculty members, Baddourmoved that those involved in theforcible occupation of the Presi-dent's office who could be iden-tified be expelled. Noting thatthe occupation took place partlyas the result of action by theDiscipline committee, ProfessorLouis Kampf quipped, "Doesthat involve abolishing the Disci-pline Committee?" Baddour'smotion was later withdrawn andreplaced by the motion whichthe faculty finally passed.

Professor Salvador Luria of-fered a motion calling on thePresident to have the GeneralAssembly and the Faculty Advi-sory Group attempt to removethe occupiers through negotia-tions, but this was defeated.

An amendment to the Bad-dour motion which deleted thecall for disciplinary actionagainst those who occupied theoffice was defeated. An amend-ment which authorized the Presi-dent to use the civil authoritiesif necessary was withdrawn atthe request of Johnson in anattempt to avoid a close votewhich might split the faculty.' Professor Franco Modigliani

offered a motion which com-mended the Discipline Commit-tee for its handling of recentevents. This was tabled by alarge margin.

Toward the end of the meet-ing some of the faculty andstudents in the meeting soughtto turn discussion toward theissue of discipline policy and themotivations of the occupiers.Johnson maintained that sincethe faculty meeting was calledonly to consider the issue ofhandling the occupation of hisoffice, this was not appropriate.
