Poland hit by political strife

interned, but later withdrew its report.
In Washington, President Reagan said the United States
had made it clear “how seriously we would view any
interference in Poland” by the Soviet Union. Reagan told
reporters, “We’re monitoring the situation. Beyond that I
can’t have any comment.”
Pentagon sources said there was no indication of any
unusual Soviet military activity in or around Poland.
Secretary of State Alexander M. Haig Jr. announced in
Brussels, Belgium, that he was canceling a Middle East
trip to return to "Washington yesterday to monitor devel
opments in Poland.
The State Department in Washington held separate talks
with Soviet and Polish diplomats. Details were not known,
but the U.S. government has expressed concern in the past
over the possibility of Soviet intervention to end 16 months
of labor unrest in Poland.
Troops and armored personnel were deployed across
Warsaw. Outside the capital, travelers said long columns
of army trucks, tanks, amphibious vehicles and jeeps lined
the highway from Gdansk, and police set up checkpoints

and stopped civilian vehicles for identity checks.
The radio also broadcast a recording of Glemp’s ad
dress.
The Polish primate warned that “opposition to the
authorities’ decisions under martial law could cause
violent enforcement of obedience .. . because the authori
ties have armed force at their disposal.”
But the “church will be unyielding when it comes to
defending human life,” he added.
“There is no greater value than human life ... I shall
plead even if I must plead on my knees: Do not start a fight
between Poles. Do not give your lives away, brother
workers, because the price of human life will be very low,”
he said.
“Every head, every pair of hands will be needed for
Poland’s reconstruction which must and will come about
after the end of the state of martial law.”
Urban did not say who Walesa met with, but informed
sources said it might be Stanislaw Ciosek, minister for
trade union affairs, and that the session could be a prelude
for a meeting with Premier Wojciech Jaruzelski this
morning to head off the threatened general strike.

“Moderate forces in Solidarity have to
demonstrate that they can control mem
bers of their own union,” he said.
But he also said, “If there is a compro
mise, it might clip Solidarity’s wings.”
However, Reed said he thought Solida
rity would not give up its new-found
freedoms without a fight.
“I don’t think it’s possible to clip the
wings of freedom,” he said. “Once
you’ve tasted it, you want it very badly.”.
But Reed also said the Communist
authorities would prevent Solidarity
from gaining its former power.
“(Solidarity) won’t come back with the
present leadership,” he said. “If they do
let it come back, it will just be a shadow
of what it was before.”
Communist officials in both the Soviet
Union and Poland see Solidarity’s de
mands for democratic elections as a
direct threat to their power, Aspaturian
said.

The Associated Press reported that
Solidarity’s leaders have pledged to hold
on Feb. 15 a nationwide vote of confi
dence on the state authorities and to ask
if new democratic elections should be
held for the Sejm, the Polish parliament.
In a separate resolution, the union called
on the Sejm to declare democratic elec
tions'by mid-1982.
The Soviets would view such action as
an “attempt on the part of Solidarity to
bring about the overthrow of the govern
ment and establish Solidarity as the
authority with the Roman Catholic
church,” Aspaturian said.
In addition, Aspaturian said the Sovi
ets might “perceive it as a threat to take
Poland out of the Warsaw Pact.”
Because Poland offers the Soviet Union
a pivotal access to East Germany, this
step would mean certain invasion, he
said.
“This is one threshold that the Soviet
Union would not allow to come to pass

without intervening,” he said.
Aspaturian said he thought Solidarity
was a little presumptuous in its demands *'
for democratic elections.
“(Solidarity) brought down two gov
ernments (in Poland) and thought they
could bring down a third,” he said. “The
risks are getting higher and higher, and
the returns are getting lower and lower.”
While Birkenmayer and Reed said they
thought the Polish situation resembled
the the steps which lead to Soviet inter
vention in Czechoslovakia and Hungary,
Aspaturian said the two situations are
very different.
“The situation in Poland led to a lot of
changes in its internal anatomy (but)
Poland remains, a loyal ally to the Soviet
Union in terms of foreign policy,” he
said. “The Soviet Union has nothing to
complain about.”
He also said Solidarity has been very
careful not to “make any noises about
getting out of the Warsaw pact.”

County budget:
Few changes in store for 1982: Services, taxes, programs remain at same levels
By JACQUELYN GOSS
Daily Collegian Staff Writer
Centre County’s tentative budget for 1982, which
is scheduled to be adopted on Dec. 22, shows few
changes from this year’s budget, including no new
programs, no cuts in essential services and no tax
increase.
“The 1982 budget necessarily demonstrates our
commitment to fiscal responsibility, but also recog
nizes our obligation to continue to provide essential
services to the people of Centre County,” the county
commissioners said in their Dec. 1 budget message.
The tentative 1982 budget, which totals $15,898,-
734, is about $lOO,OOO less than the 1981 budget of
$15,997,034.
Unless there are significant changes in expected
expenses or funding before the budget is adopted,-
the tax rate should remain the same.
“There will be some minor changes,” Commis
sion Chairman Jeffrey M. Bower said, “but I don’t

expect anything earth-shattering.”
The commissioners are pleased that there will be
no tax increase, Bower said. The tentative county
budget shows a bigger surplus than in other years,
and not too many things have been changed, he
said.
The 1982 budget is more settled than the 1981
budget was this time last year, according to the
budget message. Last year, the status of federal
revenue sharing funds, employee raises and the tax
rate were not yet determined.
However, federal and state budget decisions
affect Centre County’? budget greatly, because less
than 20 percent of the county’s money comes from
local taxes and fees, the commissioners said.
The budget includes a 5 percent cost-of-living
increase for county employees. Also, $435,000 in
federal revenues, which will be provided during the
first three quarters of 1982, will help pay for various
county programs.

Most of the money from the federal government
($300,000) will be put into a new capital im
provement fund to be used for any unexpected
renovations needed.
The commissioners are still uncertain what
amount of state and federal money will be available
to the county. Federal revenue sharing has already
been reduced by about $185,000 for the coming year,
but the county has $248,000 in federal funds left over
from 1981.
The federal and state budgets have not been
passed yet and funding for the county may be
reduced further in the fourth quarter of 1982.
The budget is still unsettled, Commissioner John
Glatz said, because of the county’s dependence on
money allotted in state and federal budgets. The
commissioners have no way to predict if there will
be changes in the amount of money the county will
receive from those sources.

have to make adjustments when state and federal
decisions are made during the year,” Glatz said.
If Gov. Dick Thornburgh’s proposed 1 percent
across-the-board budget cut is passed by the state
legislature, the county will be forced to adjust the
budget.
Funding for the county’s departments and other
agencies will be about the same as in 1981, despite
the loss of $1.6 million for public service jobs
provided in the Comprehensive Employment and
Training Act, and the influence of inflation.
The loss of CETA funds means that all public
service employment in the county has been elimi
nated, Bower said.
Many of the county’s human service programs
will receive the same amount of money as they did
last year, even though state and federal funding has
been reduced. And because of inflation, some cuts in
staff or elsewhere may have to be made in individu
al programs, Bower said.

Council rpay
adopt budget
The State College Municipal
Council will hold a special meeting
tonight and may adopt the proposed
1982 budget.
Barb Natalie, secretary to Mu
nicipal Manager Carl B.
Fairbanks, said the council may
also adopt a series of ordinances
and resolutions connected with the
budget.
The council will not consider the
reorganization of the Centre Area
Transportation Authority, although
it had been scheduled to, Natalie
said.. A representative of CATA
asked the council not to take any
action because transportation au
thority is not ready.
Fairbanks was unavailable for
comment.
