DULLES" RESIGNATION See Page 4 Sixty-Eight Years of Editorial Freedom it WINDY, MILD VOL. LXIX, No. 137 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, APRIL 16, 1959 FIVE CENTS SIX PA( U.S. Accepts Plan For City Renewal, Tract Between Depot, Ann Streets Forms Area Under Consideration By THOMAS TURNER The federal government has accepted Ann Arbor's urban renewal plans, thus offering to pay two-thirds of project costs and all of the relocation expenses. The area under consideration is an irregular 75-acre tract be- tween Depot and Ann Streets running east and west and Ashley and Division Streets north and south. Ann Arbor is in no way obligated to carry out the plan, Mayor Cecil'O. Creal pointed out last night. He characterized the govern- ment letter to City Administrator Guy C. Larcom as a "proposal of - conditions under which the City oumld enter into a contract with Ill Health Forces Resignation Of Secretary of State Dulles -1, Transport Flies Above 1Red Ceiling BONN, Germany () - The United States Air Force yesterday sent its third high flying trans- port within a month to Berlin in ,defiance of a Soviet 10,000-foot ceiling. Russian Jets shadowed the plane but did not buzz it as on two previous occasions, United States officials said. The new Air Force flight raised misgivings in Britain. Authorita- tive sources said Britain is wor- ried lest a United States-Soviet flare-up in the air corridor im- peril an East-West summit meet- ing this year. British sources said the United States State Department had promised Britain no more such flights would be made for the present, but there appeared to be differences between United States military and diplomatic officials. Soviets Follow On both legs of the flight through the corridor over Com- munist East Germany the plane was closely shadowed by two So- viet MIG fighters, United States officials said. But they said preliminary re- ports showed the four-engined turboprop transport was not forced to change course or reduce altitude. The C130 flew at its nor- mal operational height of 20,000 to 25,000 feet both going and re- turning from its base at Evreux, France. The Russians protested a pre- vious flight by a C130 on March 27, contending Allied planes were required to remain below 10,000 feet as a safety measure in the three air corridors to Berlin. The Russians say they use the air above 10,000 feetoverthehcorri- dors. . U. S. Rejects Claim The United States rejected this claim in a diplomatic note and there was a sharp exchange of charges tha each side was guilty of dangerous flying. There was another incident on w April 3 when a four-engined pro- peller traport of the United. States Air Force reduced altitude from 12,000 feet after being buzzed by Red fighters. Admiral Calls Space Plans Cumbersome WASHINGTON ()-Vice Adm. John T. Hayward testified yes- terday the nation's space program is cumbersome and certain to run into serious delays. He urged that the separate ci- vilian and military space agen- } eies be brought under a single over-all unit similar to the Atom- ic Energy Commission. Hayward, boss of the Navy's re- search and development pro- grams, testified before the Senate space subcommittee. At the request of chairman Stuart Symington (D-Mo.), Hay- ward agreed to submit a reorgan- ization plan that would stream- line and speed up varied space ef- forts, both military and civilian. Druids To Edit New Directory The Board in Control of Stu-- the government." present to Council The next step in the $1,487,000 project is presenting the govern- ment offer to the City Council and working out the details, Creal said. He noted finance, relocation and zoning are particularly difficult areas still to be finally dealt with. "There is still a long way to go before the plan goes into effect," the mayor declared. The public will have to approve any decision on money to be raised, Creal said. The opinion of people concerned will have to be solicited, and the people in the area concerned in the plan have to be satisfied if relocation is to be carried out, he continued. Dislikes Date' Creal said he has not yet studied specific aspects of the government proposal but "the first thing I would take exception with is the acceptance date of June first. "If they insist on a June first deadline there is no chance of getting it into effect," Creal said. Urban Renewal, if enacted as now planned, would require city acquisition of 67 properties in the area, including 44 in residential use and 23 in commercial and mixed use. Schedule Relocation Seventy-four families are sched- uled to be relocated. All property thus acquired would be cleared fo rredevelopment. For- mer mayorProf. Samuel J. Elders- veld of the political science de- partment has suggested the city set up a profit-making corporation to develop the property and a development foundation to subsi- dize rents thereon. Fidel Castro Visits U.S. WASHINGTON (A)-Fidel Cas- tro, youthful leader of Cuba's revolutionary government, got a roaring welcome here yesterday and voiced the hope "I can bring a better understanding of our program in Cuba to the people of the United States." The bearded prime minister, wearing the khaki uniform of his revolutionary movement, alighted from a Cuban Air Line plane to a cheering welcome from a crowd of about 1,500 flag-waving Cuban supporters and Dominican exiles. There were shouts of "Viva."' Long live Castro. His 10-day visit to the United States is listed as unofficial, but top State Department officials were on hand to greet him, along with Cuban diplomats, Strict security precautions were, in force as the 32-year-old Castro stepped to the ground after a flight that took a little more than 31/a hours from Havana. SGC Names Ugo re tz To Co0*uncil By PHILIP POWER and JEAN HARTWIG In an hour-long executive ses- sion last night, Student Govern- ment Council appointed Richard Ugoretz, '60, to fill its vacant seats. The Council also considered a petition requesting the appoint- ment of Michael Fishman, '60, to the vacant seat. Submitted by, Scott Chrysler, '59BAd., the peti- tion contained signatures of 1,100 University students. The petition stated: "I want Michael Fishman on SGC. I be- lieve that SGC's refusal to seat him was suspect, that his inten- tions at all times have been in good faith, and that the choice of voters should prevail." Started before Vacation Calling the petition "a good, healthy chunk of student opinion," Chrysler explained it was first circulated during the week before spring vacation. In announcing Ugoretz's ap- pointment, Ron Gregg, '60, Council president, issued a written state- ment on behalf of the Council -Daily-David Arnold HEAD YEARBOOK-Judy Nichols was appointed editor and Tim Johnston business manager of the 1960 -Michiganensian last night by the Board in Control of Student Publications.

Tim Johnston, '61E, was appointed business manager, as the Board named eight to key editorial and business posts on the yearbook. Miss Nichols, president of the education school senior class, and a resident of Flint, Mich., succeeds C._David Martenson '59Ed., as See Related Text, Page 2 explaining its action. "It isn't that SGC didn't want Fishman," he said, "but that we couldn't possibly have appointed him." The vote to seat Ugoretz, was 14 to zero with one abstention. Appoint Others Several other appointments were also made by SC. Al Haber, '60, Tom Patterson, '60, and Philip Power, '60, were appointed to the Orientation Study Committee. Appointments to the Human Re- lations Educational Policy Com- mittee include Ellen Lewis, '60, and Arlene Wolinsky, '61, of the Hu- man Relations Board; Paul Lich- ter, '60, chairman of the Student Activities Committee; Barton Burkhalter, '60E, chairman of the Education and Student Welfare Committee and John Quinn, '62. Ron Bassey, '61, was appointed to the Driving Regulations Admin- istrative Board. Student represen-' tatives to the Driving Regulations Revision Committee are Bassey, Robert Johnson, '59E, Elizabeth Barley, '61, and Haber, an ex- officio member pending agreement of the other parties represented on the Board. Question Schedule In other action, the .Council passed a motion expressing dis- satisfaction with the spring exam period schedule and asking for the reasons behind its construction. Haber noted that the present schedule allows little time for the students to integrate and reflect on material learned during the year. The. Council further supported a letter written by the National Stu- dent Association to be sent to South Africa condemning mount- ing racial discrimination in edu- cation there. ARKANSAS: Congress Questions Election WASHINGTON (P)-An investi- gation of the election in Arkansas last fall of Rep. Dale Alford was ordered yesterday by the House Administration Committee. It will parallel an inquiry started last month by a Federal grand jury. By a 12-11 vote, the committee approved a resolution directing that the investigation be com- pleted "at the earliest possible time." It will be conducted by a subcommittee headed by Rep. Robert T. Ashmore (D-S.C.). Act on Request The action is in line with an informal request by the defeated incumbent, Rep. Brook Hays, who last week asked the committee to find out if his upset was due to voting frauds. Both Alford and Hays are Demo- crats from Little Rock. Alford ran as a write-in segregationist candi- date. Hays, the Democratic nomi- nee and a veteran of 16 years in the House, called himself a moder- ate on the segregation issue. Al- ford won by some 1,200' votes of more than 60,000 cast. Raise Questions Although the question of ir- regularities has been raised since his election, none of these charges has been pointed at Alford per- sonally. Hays said he is not contesting the election but favors an inquiry because of his concern over the integrity of the ballot. Another reason, he said, was that a special House committee recommended such an investigation when it looked into the election last De- cember. Alford, informed of the commit- tee's action today, repeated that "I welcome an investigation on a fair and impartial basis." Military Seeks Space Capsule At North Pole INGLEWOOD, Calif. () - The Air Force is trying to recover in the north polar region a space capsule it believes was successfully ejected from the Discoverer II satellite. A terse announcement yester- day said both visual sightings and radio signals indicate the cap- sule was automatically ejected, as planned, on the moonlet's 17th orbit Tuesday. A spokesman said several sources have received a continu- ous tone signal the satellite was to broadcast after ejection. In ad- dition, other radio signals indi- cating changes in the satellite's center of gravity and weight tend to confirm the ejection. President Reveals No Successor Yet Reports Pick Under-Secretary As Most Likely Choice for Post AUGUSTA, Ga. () - Cancer forced John Foster Dulles resign yesterday as Secretary of State. A sad, moist-eyed President Dwight D. Eisenhower a nounced Dulles' decision at a dramatic news conference. The vacationing President said he had not finally ma up his mind regarding a successor to the 71-year-old Cabir member. He promised to fill the post "as quickly as pro ticable," and reports continued both here and in Washingt that Under Secretary Christian Herter, 64 years old, is t most likely choice. In a voice betraying his emotion, Preside Sallade Asks Bill Support LANSING (P) - A move to de- velop an income tax bill that would attract bipartisan support began on a small scale yesterday in the Legislature and backing it was Rep. George W. Sallade (R- Ann' "Arbor). Sallade favors using Gov. G. Mennen Williams' income tax package measure as a vehicle but with substitution of lower rates and exemptions. y H met for an hour with Reps. Walter H. Nill (D-Muskegon), Frederick Yates (D-Detroit) and Rollo G. Conlin (R-Tipton). The Governor's legal adviser, Alfred B. Fitt, sat in. The Ann Arbor lawmaker said he favored a graduated tax as ad- vocated by Gov. Williams, but with rates ranging from two per dent to four per cent, instead of Gov. Williams' two to six, and a different approach to the exemp- tion problem. Sallade said he wanted to see the state proposal follow the fed- eral income tax exemption pat- tern, allowing $600 for the tax- payer, his wife and each depend- ent. man'aging editor. Affiliated with Alpha Gamma Delta sorority, she is a member of Scroll, senior af- filiate women's honorary, and Wy- vern, junior all-women's honorary. Former Positions Miss Nichols has served suc- cessively as features editor and personnel manager. No plans have been definitely set for the 1960 yearbook, she reported. Johnston, of Grosse Pointe, Mich., is one of three appointees affiliated wiht Phi Gamma Delta fraternity. He succeeds AIvin Phillipart, '59, as business man- ager. The only other member of the editorial staff announced by the Board was Carol Handshumacher, '60Ed., named art and engravings editor. Miss Handshumacher, of Williamsville, N. Y., is a member of Alpha Omicron Pi sorority, and one of the two out-of-staters ap- pointed. Name Manager The other was James Kay, '61, of Downers Grove, Ill., new ad- vertising manager. Kay is also af- filiated with Phi Gamma Delta and is a member of the track team and the honors' program. Ruth Wickham, '60, and Mary Davis, '60, were named accounts managers. Miss Wickham is from Birmingham, Mich., Miss Davis from Detroit. Appointed sales manager was Gerry Goldberg, '60E, a third member. of Phi Gamma Delta. Goldberg comes from Pontiac, ~Mich. Sally Williams, '61, of Ann Ar- bor, affiliated with Alpha Gamma Delta, was appointed office man- ager. , The Board did not announce either a personnel manager or copy editor. Both positions will be filled later, according to Philli- part. Eisenhower told a small group£ of newmen that Dulles now is "incapacitated for carrying on the administrative load" of his office, "in addition to as- sisting in the making of policy." Dulles' doctors concluded in Washington Tuesday that his can- cer probably had spread to the neck. A February examination dis- closed abdominal cancer and Dulles underwent radiation treat- ments. For the past several days he had suffered neck pain. That caused him to return to Washington Sun- day from Florida. Widespread Expectations The fact that President Eisen- hower did not immediately an- nounce a successor caused some surprise. There had been wide-, s p r e a d expectation he would promptly name Herter, who has been acting secretary since Feb- ruary. Dulles' resignation brought quick expressions of deep sorrow from the Western world's leaders. Personal sympathy at the in- creasing severity of his illness mingled with political concern at the loss of a stout foe of Com- munism. "This is indeed sad news," said British Prime Minister Harold M. Macmillan. That summed up the messages pouring in from European capitals soon after President Eisenhower announced that Dulles could no longer carry on as Secretary of State because of cancer. Possibly the deepest feelings were aroused in West Germany, which has long regarded Dulles as Chancellor Konrad Adenauer's staunchest ally against making piecemeal concessions to the Rus- sians. Termed 'Loss' The West German foreign office said the removal of Dulles at this stage "means a great loss not only for the American people but also for the entire Western world." In West Berlin, focus of the ap- proaching East-West bargaining session by foreign ministers in Geneva, a city spokesman Hans E. Hirschfeld said: "Berliners especially regard this as a tragic stroke of fate. Dulles always stood up for the interests of Berlin." Unchanged WASHINGTON ( ) - Th physical condition of retirin Secretary of State John Foste Dulles was reported unchange yesterday from Tuesday. An afternoon medical bulleti from the State Department said .his spirits were good. Later he was reported to have been given another radiato treatment for the cancer tha forced his resignation. Start Debate OnKennedy Labor Plan.- WASHINGTON (P)-The Sens started debate on the Kenne labor regulation bill late yesterdi and agreed to vote on a k amendment next Tuesday. Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-MasI opened the debate with a. plea i the measure as it came from tl labor committee, contending th to adopt amendments might resi in no bill at all. But Sen. Sam J. Ervin Jr. CC N.C.), a co-sponsor of the measu called up the first major amen ment, a proposal to knock out the bill all proposed changes the Taft-Hartley Law. The amendment is certain to heavily disputed. Several of t Taft-Hartley changes long ha been sought by organized lab and the AFL-CIO has said it fight the bill if they are eliminate Two of the major propos changes would allow replace strikers to vote in a bargainW election and would legalize agre ments in the construction indust Senator Kennedy told the Se ate the Taft-Hartley changes i cluded in his bill were relative noncontroversial and that th largely were approved by the Se' ate when it acted on similar legi lation last year. That legislatio was killed in the House. But Sen. Ervin said he believ the proposed Taft-Hartley chang had no place in a labor refor measure. Senate Democratic Leader Ly don B. Johnson of Texas obtain an agreement to vote on the Erv amendment on Tuesday. There will be nothing ht speeches on the bill for the re of this week. The Kennedy bill seeks to i at labor union wrongdoing 1 1) requiring detailed public fina: cial reporting by all labor grou: 2) setting up a union democra code with secret ballots and lim on officers' terms; 3) limiting t: powers of international unions put locals under trusteeships; banning convicted persons re serving as union officials for pri scribed periods, and by many oth provisions.
