THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 196' THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 2,1967 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE Opposition Asks Ouster of Brown British Secretary's Attack on Press Arouses Conservative Objections CONTINUING FEUD: UAW Stops Financial Support Prior to Break With AFLCIO LONDON (P)-Demands of op- position Conservatives for the dis- missal of George Brown confront- ed Britain's foreign secretary yes- terday with the most serious crisis of his political life. The authoritative word is that, for the next months at least, Brown will continue as Britain's foreign secretary. Calls for Brown's ouster arose after he administered a public lashing to Canadian-born press mnagnate Lord Thomson of Fleet for allowing his British newspapers to publicize the feats of Soviet agent Kim Philby, who worked 30 years for Russian intelligence while masquerading as a British spy. The spectacular incident at a banquet attended by 70 American businessmen and scores of report- ers Tuesday night was only the latest in a long series involving Humphrey's Malay Visit Protested KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia () -Vice President Hubert H. Hum- phrey flew from war-torn Vietnam to normally tranquil Malaysia yes- terday fr 'a three-day visit that has touched off anti-American demonst ations. Apparently unknown to Hum- phrey, his effigy was lynched by a mob of leftist Chinese youths in Penang City in the north. Hundreds of demonstrators pa- raded in Kuala Lumpur and in some of the capital's suburbs with banners in Malay, Chinese and English reading: "Humphrey get out." Fire Tear Gas No arrests were reported, though police had to fire several rounds of tear gas to disperse an unruly, banner-waving group of 70 which demonstrated near Humphrey's motorcade route from the airport. The demonstrations, however, were on a much smaller scale than the violent protests that left one dead and several in- jured during President Johnson's 21-hour visit here on his Southeast Asian tour one year ago. Deputy Prime Minister Tun Ab- dul Razak welcomed Humphrey. En route to the city they re- peatedly heard explosions resemb- firecrackers going off as Malaysia's ling gunshots. But these were from large Indian community celebrated the Deepavali Festival of Lights. Singapore Protests Protests against Humphrey's visit to Malaysia also broke out in neighboring Singapore where 30 persons, shouting "go home Humphrey;" threw sticks and stones at police. Four were ar- rested before the crowd dispersed. Opposition to Humphrey's visit has come primarily from the left- wing Labor party, which charges that the United States is trying to involve Malaysia in the Vietnam war. Rahman said Tuesday, however, Humphrey's visit is designed only to see what help the United States can give to. Malaysia's economy, which has been badly hit the past two months by a sharp drop in the prices of natural rubber, its major export. The U.S. has no direct aid pro- gram here, channeling all assist- ance through the International Aid Malaysia Club in Washington. SERGEI EISENSTEIN, FESTIVAL Tonight & Tomorrow ALEXANDER NEVSKY (1938) 53-year-old Brown. Some have publicized. Others have been kept dark. What caused the new argument was his remark that he thought Thomson and his newspapers were overdoing it. "It is about time we stopped giving the Russians half a start on what we are doing. It is about! time you shut up," Brown said. Thomson was the host of the banquet. Later, Brown fought a 10-min- ute hassle with reporters and this elicited his charge that the British{ press is"the most prostituted press in the world." Thus far Prime Minister Harold Wilson has displayed no inclina- tion to bow before the cries of Conservative politicians and news- papers for him to fire Brown, who* also is deputy prime minister. Some of Brown's aides said he had been provoked by Thomson's dinner table talk and by Thom- son's dinner table talk and by Thomson's public joke about a George Brown who had been ad- vised 'to quit drinking. Brown considers himself in a state of political warfare with in- fluential sections of Britain's mainly Conservative press. Brown said Tuesday night he had broken of relations with the British Press. Brown displayed yesterday ab- solutely no signs of a political or any other sort of hangover even as the storm about his future raged around him. -Associated Press POLICE QUELL RIOT Pittsburgh police stand guard on the grounds of the city's Oliver High School, where violence erupted yesterday among the racially mixed students. Officers used a riot-control chemical to cool the long- simmering friction, bringing protest from parents. Nine pupils were hurt. Shortage of Funds May Close Corn lutyaAction TProgr ams WASHINGTON (,?)-Auto work- ers president Walter Reuther is burning his financial and political bridges with the AFL-CIO in what many sources view as final steps toward walking his union out of the nation's House of Labor. The AFL-CIO's Industrial Un-1 ion Department, financed largely by United Auto Workers' money, is rapidly using up its fund. Reuth- er's union has also quit giving noney to the labor federation's political arm, the Committee on Political Education, sources said. The money involved is substan- tial, labor sources said, and strong- ly indicates Reuther will climax his long fight against AFL-CIO President George Meany by pulling his 1 Vf million auto workers out of the 14-million member feder- ation next month. Confirm Spending Jack Conway, executive director of the Industrial Union Depart- ment, confirmed that more than $1 million has been spent out of long-time cash reserves, but dis- putes that it portends an auto workers walkout. Reuther's last remaining office in the AFL-CIO is as president of the Industrial Union Department. He quit last February as an AFL- CIO vice president and other posts with a blast of criticism against Meany's leadership. Many labor leaders expect Reuther to make the final break at the AFL-CII convention in Miami Beach in December. Conway said the department dipped heavily into its cash re- serves to help other unions finance organizing drives, but insisted "it's nothing serious." Net Worth Other sources said the Industrial Union Department's net worth dropped from $2.3 million to $800, 000 in 10 months and that at the present rate of spending, it could run out of money in another eight months. speaks for the 129 AFL-CIO unions' with one voice. The auto workers in past years participated heavily in AFL-CIO political action. Many labor sources said both moves indicated Reuther, failing' to win other unions' support in his attack on Meany, is liquidating his, financial interests in the AFL-CIO! in preparation for a final break. All sources agreed the Industrial Union Department money is being spent on organizing, anti-poverty and other programs which organ- ized labor considers worthwhile. "It isn't as if he were spending Dther peoples' money,' said one World News Roundup source, pointing out that the auto workers have long contributed more heavily than any of the other 59 unions in the Industrial Union Department. "It could mean that if Reuther pulls out of the AFL-CIO. he would leave the Industrial Union Department empty-handed," an- other source said. "It was always there," Conway said of the big cash reserve, until the recent splurge of spending. The money originally was a car- ryover from the old CIO unions at the time of its mergers with the old American Federation of Labor, he said. WASHINGTON (i)-The anti- poverty agency said yesterday that 35 of its Community Action programs affecting some 500,000 people may be forced to close this month unless Congress votes soon to continue funding the projects. And if Congress continues after Nov. 23 its inaction on a resolu- tion permitting the Office of Eco- Blaming Cities for Riotingj 'Miseoneeption' ayor Says WASHINGTON (AP) - Mayor Louie Welch of Houston, Tex., told investigating senators yesterday that blaming city government for troubles that ignite racial rioting is a misconception that can add to Negro frustration and help produce riots. Welch said the idea that a may- or's office can deal with all prob- lems confronting a city "only leads to rising expectations that cannot be met." This he added, can itself produce destructive outbreaks. "With the federal government setting so many policies and actu- ally sponsoring commercials on television aimed at helping minor- ity groups, severe misconceptions -an be passed on to these groups as to who is repsonsible for what at the local level," he said. "People become easily frustrated when they feel that they are being given the runaround," Welch test- ified as the Senate permanent in- vestigations subcommittee opened its inquiry into recent violence that flared through some, Amer- ican cities. The mayor also said some fed- eral officials seem totally unfam- iliar with responsibilities of munic- ipal government. The panel's first step was tab- ulating on a giant chart the results of 101 disorders in 76 cities. The subcommittee report listed property damage in last summer's Detroit riot at $144 million; that in the Newark, N.J., rioting at $10.2 million. Welch said Houston is not free of "the problems that seem to contribute to rioting." "Our very growth has only too often outstripped our ability to supply services and meet needs," he said. Welch appealed for better fed- eral understanding of the problems of local government and said city halls must, not be looked upon as "the citadel of answers to all prob- lems." nomic Opportunity to continue fi- nancing projects, another 100 Community Action programs will be threatened in December. Similar problems are facing several other federal agencies whose fiscal 1968 approprnations also have not been passed. They have been technically without funds since expiration of a con- tinuing resolution permitting them to function on a temporary basis until their money bills are ap- proved. Job Corps, Head Start Other OEO projects affected by congressional inaction include the Job Corps and adult and youth work training programs. Com- munity Action programs include Head Start, legal services, adult basic education, foster grandpar- ents and neighborhood centers. Seven of the 35 Community Action programs facing the pos- sibility of being forced to close down if not funded again by the OEO by Nov. 23, could go out of: business Friday. OEO spending authority ex- pired Oct. 23. "The Community Action agen- cies will have to use some local device to continue to operate," said Don Wortman, associate di- rector for operations for the OEO's Community Action Pro- gram. He said a city government, a charity fund or a bank might give the local CAA a loan, but the loan could not be guaranteed by the federal government. "With the lack of a continuing resolution, we have no authority to tell, them to make a loan," Wortman said. "The bank that makes the loan will have to do it on the faith - that the Congress will appropriate the money." Normally, about 75 local Com- munity Action agencies of the 1,066 across the country would come up for refunding during November but about 40 have some money left to carry them for a while, he said. By The Associated Press BANGKOK-An official Soviet' publication, for the second time in recent months, strongly criticized Communist China yesterday as having ambitions to take over neighboring countries in Southeast Asia. The article saidany visitor to Southeast Asia would become aware of a "feeling of anxiety" over the policies of Chinese Com- munist party Chairman Mao Tse- tung. WASHINGTON-The State De- partment rejected as nonsense yesterday a North Vietnamese charge that the United States is deliberately bombing North Viet- namese Civilians and again called on Hanoi to enter into peace talks. * * * WASHINGTON - The Senate Foreign Relations Committee fail- ed yesterday to reach agreement on terms of a resolution intended to restrain a president in using U.S. military forces to defend other countries. Concern that approval of any such a declaration would be inter- preted at home and abroad as a slap at President Johnson's Viet- nam policies was a key factor in the disagreement. Sen. J. W. Fulbright, committee chairman and sponsor of the orig- inal resolution, told newsmen after the closed session "it is very dif- ficult to say whether there is a sufficient sentiment at this time" for committee approval. WASHINGTON - FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, reacting to the killing of two policemen during an Illinois bank robbery, assailed again yesterday what he called maladministration of the nation's parole systems. Hoover also called for legislation on the federal, state and local levels to tighten up parole admin- istration and added "The bleeding hearts of this country have had their say too long." The 72-year-old director made his unscheduled remarks at grad- uation ceremonies for the 99 mem- bers of the FBI National Academy, a 12-week school for law enforce- ment officers. $28 Million The 35 agencies in trouble rep- Conway confirmed that halting resent approximately $28 million of auto workers contributions was in refunding. largely responsible. William B. Kelly, Job Corps It was confirmed too that the director, said "Centers are living auto workers had also stopped its off the shelf and some of our $150,000 a year voluntary contri- conservation centers are very butions to the Committee on Polit- limited. We're also living off the ical Education, which usually largesse of our contractors." - - - - He said the agency owes about $2.75 million to contractors who run the centers and who have not been paid since Oct. 23. CINEM A II The contractors, such as West- inghouse, RCA and Science Re- search Associates, buy goods and presents materials for the centers, then bill the OEO for reimbursement.
