Be Gaulle Asks
End of Rebellion
- Piromises Algeria More Schools;
Proposes Five-Year Plan for Aid
COSTANTINE, Algeria (P)-Premier Charles de Gaulle called on
Algerian rebels yesterday to lay down their arms.
e promised Algeria's troubled Moslems more land, more schools,
more jobs.
In a speech before at least 50,000 cheering Moslems and French-
men, the French premier proposed a new five-year plan that calls for
a vast outpouring of French wealth into the revolt-torn North African
territory.
No Independence

Algeria. At the same time, he told rebellious French colonists in

AUTO STRIKE: -
Local Disputes Halt
GMProduction Plns

DETROIT (AP) - Hoping for
change by Monday, General
Motors yesterday approached the
weekend with its massive array of
car-making plants paralyzed by,
the backwash of a 12-hour na-
tional strike.
Local disputes kept 126 plants in
71 United States cities shut down
despite a new three-year master
contract agreed upon Thursday
night by GM and the United Auto
Workers.
The UAW's 250,000 GM employes

Defies Court,

LITTLE ROCK (M---Gov. Orval
E. Faubus bluntly defied the power
of the United States Supreme
Court to compel him to integrate
Little Rock high schools, saying
yesterday, "I will never open the
public schools as integrated insti-
tutions",
The spectre of Federal troops
again being used in Little Rock
also came into his comments at a
news conference.
Reporters asked what would
happen if the high schools are.
reopened-in defiance of federal
court orders-on a private, segre-
gated basis. He replied:
"The only recourse the Federal
government would have would be
to send inMarshals and the army
to forcibly eject teachers and stu-
dents."
Gov. Faubus issued a prepared
statement on his position yester-
day in the narrowing battle with
the Federal government overthe
schools. He said he would assist
the Little Royk Private School
Corporation in obtaining money
and other facilities for a privately-
operated school system.
Police Thwart
Paint Attempt
Early .yesterday morning the
Ann Arbor Police stopped James
Gerlach and David Robbins, two
Michigan State University stu-
dents, for making an improper
turn.
When the police looked in the
car they discovered three cans of
green paint. At first Gerlach said
that they were from Michigan
State but were merely here to
visit friends, when further ques-
tioned they could not think of the
names of their friends.
After questioning they admit-
ted that they had come here to
paint green "S's" on the streets
and to paint the Lions green.

walked off their'jobs when a strike
deadline passed without an agree-
ment.
Settlement Reached
Then, when a settlements was
reached, they stayed out with the
blessing of UAW President Walter
Reuther to back up their local
demands.
GM said it hoped the trickle of
workers going back to their jobs
would start Monday, putting the
world's largest manufacturing con-
cern back in the race for produc-
tion and sale of 1959 model cars.
Local meetings of UAW and GM
officials were to continue coast to
coast over the weekend in efforts
to iron out differences that have
tied up since old contracts expired
four months ago.
Must Ratify
To become effective, the national
contract must be ratified by UAW
locals by Oct. 20.
Only one GM manufacturing
plant remained in operation - a
Delco-Remy battery plant in Ana-
heim, Calif., where the 233 em-
ployes are -non-union.
In past national strikes in the
auto industry, one to two weeks
have been needed to clear away
local disputes and put all plants
back in operation.
Ford Motor Co., which came to
terms with the UAW two weeks
ago after a seven-hour company-
wide strike, only now is nearing
full resumption of production.
Plan Fails
At Norfolk,
RICHMOND, Va. (-) - The
withering of a 'program designed
to provide private class facilities
for 10,000 integration-idled white
pupils in Norfolk and the forecast
of further court action next week
marked Virginia's troubled school
front yesterday.
Amid these developments there
was no further word from Gov. J.
Lindsay Almond Jr. on what next
moves he has in mind to try to
reopen nine closed schools - six,
at Norfolk, two at Charlottesville
and Warren County High School
at Front Royal, Va.
The inability of the Tidewater
Educational Foundation in Nor-
folk to sign up a single public
school teacher led to the suspen-
sion of the operation which, the
foundation claimed, had regis-
tered 2,630 pupils.'
James G. Martin IV, foundation
president, called the attitude of
the teachers "inscrutable." As a
result of the lack of teachers he
said the foundation would cease
enrollment and return the tuition
fees already paid.
Only about $450 in $20 fees had
actually been paid, he said.

GOVERNMENT ORDER:
Declassify Millions'
OfMilitary Papers

WASHINGTON (A)'-The secrecy
label was lifted today from millions
of military papers dating back to
Jan. 1, 1946 and beyond.
This was at the order of Secre-
tary of Defense Neil McElroy and
it drew praise from Chairman
John E. Moss (D-Calif.) of a
House subcommittee which has
been working 'against unneeded
secrecy in government.
Some of the documents which
now may be freely seen deal with
things that happened before Amer-
ica entered World War I in 1917.
Goes Past 1946
The mass declassification order
applies to almost all ;military docu-
ments stamped Top Secret, Secret
and Confidential before 1946.
It is the culmination of 18
months of work by a group headed
by retired Vice Adm. John M.

Football fans in six cities will
view the Michigan-Michigan State
game today on Pay-TV.
However Ann Arbor is not one
of these cities.
Grandview Corp. which is tele-
casting the game said that no one
in Ann Arbor would sponsor the
telecast and that they could not
get any place to show the game.

Secretary of Defense when this
attack against unneeded secrecy
was started. .
There are exemptions from the

war plans and information on in-
telligence and counter intelligence.

those who have performed military
service.
Rep..Moss,In a letter to Secre-
tary McElroy, expressed pleasure
at the action "to.remove the obso-
lete secrecy labels on countless
documents, stored at great ex-,
pense in government warehouses;
out of reach of historians, scien-
tists and the public."
Accuses Air force
However, in another action to-
day, Rep. Moss accused the Air
Force of violating the law by with-
holding infoinationjfrom the gen-
eral accountihg office on manage-
ment of the Ballistic Missiles Pro-
gram.
The accounting office is an arm
of Congress. It had complained
that the information the Air Force
was willing to give out "does not
include specific data on the oper-
ating conditions and management
controls or a summary of the
factual information on which the
conclusions are based."

favorite at game time.
Neither team was hurt by in-
juries in last week's initial contest
but the Wolverines suffered a
severe setback when their number
two quarterback and leading pass-
er on the squad, Stan Noskin, was
unable to make the trip with the
rest of the 38-man traveling squad
because of an attack of flu. The
rest of the team is intact.
MSU Big, Mobile
Michigan State will have a big,
mobile line. with its traditional
shifty backfield. Sam Williams
(218), State's' candidate for the
Al)-American squad will start at
left end. with Francis O'Brien
(228) at left tackle. John Middle-
ton (195) and Jim Chastain (214)
will probably get the starting as-
signments at left guard and center,
respectively.
Two mammoth linemen, Ellison
Kelly (231) and Palmer Pyle (240)
will start at right guard- and right
tackle for MSU. Dick Barker (200)
will start at right end.
Small Backfield
Back of this huge line State
will have a comparatively small
but speedy backfield. The Spar
tan's backfield averages 177 lbs. as
compared to the Wolverine's 200
pounds. All four backs, but especi-
ally highly-touted halfbacks Dean
Look (175) and Art Johnson (178)
can fly. Fullback Bob Bercich has
power.
State's passing attack will be
handled by quarterbacks Mike
Panitch and Greg Montgomery.
Williams, Barker and the half-
backs will bethe leading receivers.
Michigan will counter with an
extremely hefty line with eft end
Gary Prahst (222)", right guard
Jerry Marciniak (236), right tackle
Don Deskins (239) and 'left end
Walter Johnson (214) looming as
the largest of the Michigan line-
men.
Some Light Linemen
Other Michigan starting linemen
who are a bit on the lighter side
are left guard Alex Callahan (195),
center Jim Dickey (191), and left
tackle. George Genyk (200).
Michigan's backfield contrasts
with Michigan State's because of
its heftiness and power. The 'M'
attack, which will be predomi-
nantly centered on the single wing,
is spearheaded by the running of
giant fullback John Herrnstein

On Quemloy
WASHINGTON (JP)-Sen. Norris
Cotton (R-N.H.) said yesterday "it
is imperative that the Administra-
tion declare quickly and with cry-
tal clarity just what it will or will
not do" about Quemoy island.
He urged an early statement on
whether United States troops will
be used if the Chinese Communists
attack the coastal islands.
"For the past six years," Sen.
Cotton said, "the Administratlon
has done a good job of doing just
what President Dwight D. Eisen-
hower said it would-say in ad.
vance of a crisis just where this
country would fight.
"That policy may not have
changed, but it isn't clear to me
and I therefore assume not clear
to the rest -of the world what our
firm intention is regarding these
islands.
"Naturally," Sen. Cotton added,
"there is the element of face sav-
ing of Chiang Kai-Shek, but face
saving is of little moment If inde-
cision and lack of clarity can lead
to world war."

The scientist, Dr. Robert Jas-

He told a symposium of labora-

The Russians' report said in
