TDA names week to ‘knock nukes’ This Saturday, anti-nuclear activists from Seabrook, New Hamp shire to Satsop, Washington will hold rallies and protests on proposed sites of nudear power plants. In support of those actions, the Trojan Decommissioning Alliance (TDA) has declared this week "Knock Nukes Week.” The week’s activities began Tuesday with an open house at the TDA headquarters in Eugene. Wednesday morning several bicycle riders left Eugene for Salem following a rally outside the Eugene Water and Electric Board offices to protest the board’s continued interest in the Trojan power plant. The bicycle riders should reach Salem Friday morning, where a parade to the capital building is scheduled. Tonight, a free showing of “The Last Resort”, a film about the nuclear power protests at Seabrook, will be held in Room 150 Geology, on the University campus. More information about the week’s activities is available from the TDA office, 348 W. 8th Ave., 687-2557. Housing (Continued from Page 1) Amazon building repair re serve. Under current OSSHE funding procedures, the building repair reserve for the Amazon pro ject is in danger of being depleted, though reserves are currently funded. The audit states: “Ama zon is not an ordinary project...in an average year, repair expen ditures may equal 50 percent of the total operations.” The housing department, along with the policy board, has re evaluated the projected needs for the coming biennium and reduced the audit figures for those years. This move will alter the rate of de pletion of the building reserve fund as listed in the audit. Accounting procedures. An example of accounting procedure problems cited by the audit was that revenue data is not currently being supplied to the cost ac counting system controller. “As a result,” the audit states, “income is recorded on a cash basis.” The audit cited that as a type of problem the department has en countered in obtaining and using information produced by the Cost Accounting System, “a manage ment tool used in budgeting, fore casting and recording operation transactions.” John Strickland, supervisor of the audit, explains that this means figures from the Housing Office are “not related” to those of the Cost Accounting System. But the audit notes that since the department hired an accoun tant as previously recommended DUFFY Duffy's Sorry, no band this weekend!

The audit suggested this would make the policy board “more func tional.” Department morale. The re port affirmed that a morale prob lem exists within the housing de partment. “All parties concerned readily admitted this was a prob lem,” the audit states. The audit concluded that personnel prac tices could be improved by com plying more closely with the Ex ecutive Department Personnel Rules and by informing the em ployees of those rules. but confusion still exists, says Strickland. He says money has not been used for unauthorized purposes, but the OSSHE policy is very broad. “They have stayed within the general guidelines,” he says. Though they are not consistent. The morale problem still exists and there is a lot more going on than people will tell you.” Mason finds the language of the report “tendentious and gratuit ous” concerning the policy board. “We believe that Amazon and Westmoreland should not be thrown together, ” Mason asserts, saying there are“‘qualitative dif ferences” between the two hous ing complexes and that West moreland tenants have shown their interests are not the same as Amazon tenants’. No Amazon rent increase has been scheduled for 1978-79. “We’ve come a long way since the rent strike of last summer,” Lee maintains.
