LXIX, No. 55 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1958 FIVE CENTS Federal Funds Hoped for Loans Red Tape Slows NDE Program; , Office of Education Calls Meeting By THOMAS HAYDEN Student loans, financed by federal funds, may still be available as planked by early next semester when demands hit a peak at the University, the United States Office of Education has reported. But there are some indications that red tape in Washington has fouled the machinery of the loan .program, which, under the National Defense Education Act, would make up to $250,000 open to the Urd. versity. The federal office, in charge of channeling $40 million into vari- ous fields of education during the next year, has called a Dec. 1 meet- ing in Chicago to discuss the recently-passed education act. Repre- -----C+ Fratermnty Severs Ies To, National By THOMAS KABAKER The Amherst College chapter of theta Xi voted Friday to sever ties with the national fraternity, ac- cording to William Segal, presi- dent of the group.. The chapter had been suspended in August, 1957 following the pledging of a Negro. Segal said the chapter originally was sus- pended by the Grand Lodge which governs the national organization between the fraternity's conv- tions. The national convention meet- ing later in the month then vQted to resuspend the group. Convention Ratio Higher For the convention to, take the initiative in revoking the chapter's charter would have required a two-thirds mdjority instead of the simple majority needed after ac- tiqn has been taken by the Lodge, Segal said. The local chapter was suspended for "disrupting the general wel- fare of the brotherhood," Segal added. He said the chapter had tried to bring to the floor of the convention that the real issue was the fact that the group had pledged a Negro. "Never during the course of the discussions did the national Ira-' ternity use the words Negro or discrimination," Segal said. Showed fisrespect The national officers had charged the Amherst chapter with presenting "numerous, and formid- able problems." Segal said the charges referred only to a case several years ago where the chap- ter had shown disrespect toward national officers and fad dis- played a laxity in keeping the fraternity's ritual. Seven of the twelve members-of the Grand Lodge come from the South, Segal noted, Bar Negroes At Fratermnty Meeting Hotel Negro delegates to the National Interfraternity Council's annual meeting Dec. 4, 5 and S will be prohibited from staying at the same hotel as the other delegates, it was revealed yesterday. In a letter to the Dean of Men's office, the national group called the University's attention to he fact that the meeting will be held in Atlanta, Ga., and that state and local laws prohibit white ho- tels from accepting Negro trade. Normally, delegates are expect- ed to live at the Atlanta Biltmore Hotel, where the annual meeting will be held. According to the let- ter, however, Negro delegates may attend the meeting but would not be allowed to linger in the halls, use the lobby, eat in the dining rooms or use the hotel's rest rooms. The letter said separate hotel and eating accomodations would be made for Negroes wish- Ing to attend. According to the Dean of Men's office, no Negroes from the Uni- versity are planning to attend. None attended the meeting held in Colorado Springs last year, it added. Plans for the meeting are under the direction of Prof. Huston T. Karnes of the mathematics de- partmnent at Louisiana State Uni- versityoy He refused to say why Atlanta )sentatives of all midwestern col- leges applying for aid under the act, including the University, will attend. Slowness Concerns 'U Some University officials have shown concern over the program's "sluggish pace." The University Regents have authorized a request of $250,000 to increase the loan fund here. Thus far, however, not even the applcation forms. have been sent to interested schools. Cites Alternate Plan If the loan appropriations are not received by next semester, the University will have to "make every effort to take care of stu- dent needs," Dean of Men Walter B. Rea said yesterday. He warned that "making every effort" might involve curtailing some loan requests. Bequest Seen Helping It is expected, however, that a $200,000 bequest from the estate of the late Della Nobel, of Pon-, tiac, will help alleviate the student loan problem for the coming se- mester. Dean Rea will be among the University delegation to the re- gional meeting at the University of Chicago. Other University per- sonnel will attend and take part in the four discussions to be held with federal officials. Discussions will center on pro- visions of the act regarding loans, graduate fellowships, guidance and counseling, and foreign lan- guage development. ON CAMPUS: Educators To Meet 'the 12th annual Conference on Higher Education will be held to- day and tomorrow at the Univer- sity.

Dunning, dean of the Co- lumbia University engineeringt school, will address the delegates on the topic "Sputniks Are Not Enough." - SGC Plans New Choice Of Officers Student Government Council will elect officers tonight. Maynard Goldman, '59, will seek to retain the Council presidency, it was reported yesterday. Scott Chrysler, '59BAd, announced last week he will seek the spot. Al Haber, '60, David Kessel, Grad., and Treasurer Mort Wise, '59, will contend for the executive vice-president's post, being vacated by Dlan Belin, '59. Jo Hardee, '60, now adminis- trative vice-president, will seek reelection to that spot. She is presently unopposed, as Fred Mer- rill, '59, has said he is no longer a candidate for the post. There are no announced candi- dates for treasurer. The Council will also deal with a calendaring motion which was withdrawn at a previous meeting. Daily Editor Richard Taub, '59, has moved that SGC delegate all scheduling of events to the Calen- daring Committee, to be brought before the Council only if prob- lems arise. The Education and Student Wel- fare Committee will bring a recom- mendation to the effect that more students should be sitting on policy making bodies of the Uni- versity such as the Curriculum, Admissions and Scholarship Boards. Cargo Ship, Crew of 35 Called Lost CHARLEVOIX, Mich. (') - A violent storm on Lake Michigan last night was feared to have sent a big cargo ship with a crew of 35 to the bottom with all hands lost, Hours of search on turbulent waters found bits of wreckage be- lieved from the stricken Carl D. Bradley and no signs of survivors from her crew. As temperatures plunged to- ward sub-freezing levels on the storm-whipped lake, a search went on with surface vessels fight- ing mountainous waves and United States Coast Guard planes also participating. Last Message Heard The last radio message from the Bradley's Capt. Roland Bryan of Loudenville, N.Y. was a terse: "We've broken in half. We're go- ing down." Capt. Bryan. commanding one of the Great Lakes' largest car- riers, sent the message at 51:33 p.m. at the height of the storm. 'No Boats Visible' Late last night the captain of a rescue ship, the German motor- ship Christian Sartori, messaged, "I believe all hands are lost. No life boats visibl." The Sartori reported finding a1 tank afloat and in a condition that indicated there had been a "tremendous explosion." Ships from several lake ports1 and Coast Guard stations put out1 into the angry waters to aid ini the huge search.

In the past week, the Soviet Union has repeatedly claimed the Allies have violated the spirit of occupation agreements and should get out of West Berlin, an island inside Soviet-run East Germany. Soviet Premier Nikita Khrush- chev said last week the Russians are giving up their occupation rights in East Berlin and advised the allies to do the same. Presented to Press The idea was developed today at the two and one-half hour news conference, attended by 300 West- ern and Communist newsmen. A reporter for Tass, the Soviet news agency, asked what anti- Soviet activities were being carried out in West Berlin. J. V. Beburov, first secretary of the Soviet Embassy who was con- ducting the news conference, turn- ed the question over to an ex- Soviet army officer who allegedly deserted to the West but later decided he wanted to go back home. Appears on Television The ex-officer, I. V. Ovchin- nikov, got up in the glare of Com- munist television lights and charged: "The territory of West Berlin is being used for subversive ac- tivities against the German Demo- cratic Republic (East Germany) and the Soviet Union." He said much of the activity, stems from NTS, an anti-Soviet organization of Russian Emigres. With American backing, they are using West Berlin as a base for a clandestine radio station, a print- ing plant and the launching of balloons carrying leaflets, Ovchin-; nikov said. His remarks were seconded by another Russian who identified himself as V. S. Ilyinski, an acro- bat who deserted the Moscow State Circus. Both said that after their de- sertions, the West German po- lice had turned them over to American intelligence agents who wanted to train them as anti- Soviet spies. The United States mission in Berlin declined immediate com- ment on the charges. ty .. . could only lead to continual' bickering and an eventual break- down of the legislative process." "I have always considered my- self a realistic politician," Rep. Sallade continued. It would ap- pear a far wiser course of action," both politically and morally," to permit the Democratic Party to organize the House, he said. Would Discount Charges Rep. Sallade added the Demo- cratic Party control of committees would discount their charges of deeply-entrenched GOP power in the House. "For a long time we have wit- nessed in Michigan the claims of the Democratic Party that the SUDAN: New Head Assume's Command CAIRO (A) - Gen. Ibrahim Ab- boud assumed Sudan's premier- ship yesterday as a strongman with full legislative, executive and Judicial powers. The 58-year-old army com- mander, reputed to be moderate politically, formed a 12-man cab- inet dominated by military offi-! cers to take over rule of that east African nation from A ullah Khalil's deposed pro-Western re- gime. Paralleling this was the forma- tion of a military council of 13 officers-with Abboud as chair- man. It becomes the high com- mand of the British-trained armed forces, 12,000 strong. T"The head of the high com- mand of the armed forces is the supreme power in Sudan," said a decree broadcast by the radio at Khartoum, the Sudanese capital. Abboud's assumption of full powers in the legislative, execu- tive and judicial fieldsvwas dis- closed in connection with the crea- tion of the cabinet. The cabinet is made up of five civilians, none previously prominent in Sudanese political affairs, and seven officers. Abboud will serve as his own defense minister. UN Space Plans its obvious frills and the neces- sary tax increases to pay for it," Rep. Sallade continued. Cites Population Rep. Sallade also added the state's uneven population repre- sentation to bolster his argument for Democratic control of House organization.

"Since 1950. I have supported the concept of a balanced legisla- ture with one house elected on a population basis and the other on an area system," he said. "To me, it seems paramount that the Republican legislative leaders consider the effect of their action on this concept, previously adopted by the entire Republican Party of Michigan in persisting in efforts to retain a 50-50 share in control of the House of Repre- sentatives," Rep. Sallade added. City MayTor Haids Week Ann Arbor's mayor, Prof. Sam- uel J.

We should do all in our power as Ann Arbor1 citizens to let these students know1 we want to help and understand< them, as well as to assist them in understanding us. "Let's not pass up this rare op-1 portunity given us by Interna- tional Week," he concluded. l New Views May Break Dealocks. Zorin Gives Proposa To Study Committee UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (P)- The Soviet Union submitted a ne proposal on outer space to th, United Nations yesterday. It went a long way toward meel ing the position of the Unite States and brewing an East-Wei deadlock. Soviet Deputy Foreign Ministe Valerian Zorin placed the ne' proposal before the 81-nation Polt 'tical Committee. It had then important elements: Drops Demands 1) It dropped previous Sovle demands 'that abolition of U.S overseas military bases be tied 1 with the question of internationi control of outer space. 2) It proposed the creation of 11-nation study group to prepar the groundwork for a permanent UN committee for cooperation i the study of outer space for peace ful purposes. This came very close to a pro posal being pushed by the Unite States, 'Britain and 18 other pow ers for creation of a special com mittee to study all aspects of thi problem. Showed Plan to Lodge Zorin showed the new proposa to United States Ambassadox Henry Cabot Lodge at a privat conference prior to its presenta tion to the Political Committee, Lodge welcomed it as "a sign that the Soviet Union may b willing to cooperate in some peace ful endeavor in outer space." But Zorin made clear at a newv conference that Soviet concession to the United States did not signify any willingness to make simila moves in Geneva. Talks are in progress there on ending nuclea: weapons tests, and on working ou methods for detecting surprise attack. Convoc~iion Arthur S. Adams, president of the American Council of Education, will speak at 11 a.m., today in Hill Aud. on "Religion in Today's University." This special Uniyersity con- vocation, a part of Interna- tional Week, is also the con- cluding event in the four-day National Conference on Re- ligion and the State University. All classes will be dismissed at 10:40 a.m. Bhoard Approves Formar For House Applicaion By RALPH LANGER The residence hall's Board of Governors yesterday approved a new men's residence application form. The new application was devised to implement last year's residence halls policy and requires no pre-residence photograph. It also removes parenthetical suggestions for answering several questions. The approved form, which will go into effect during 1959, asks prospective residents to describe themselves and the roommate that they might desire, without suggesting such items as race and religion. The question of having parents approve their son's choices received some discussion. The Board finally approved a general state- , ment that the University suggest tthe parents that they read their son's form. John M. Hale, senior director, men's residence halls, and Walter B. Rea, Dean of Men, felt that if parents read their son's 0 S preferences, some difficulties might be avoided after the selec- to tion of-roommates.

'Never Easy' OPENS INTERNATIONAL WEEK: { Tests 'Right'--Zorin In response to a question, Zori said the Soviet Union has a "per- fectly legitimate right" to con- tinue nuclear tests during the Geneva talks. He reiterated Soviet insistence upon agreement to end tests "for all time." He said also the Soviet Union would continue to press for aboli- tion of United States overseas bases, and a ban on sending mili- tary missiles into outer space. Hi indicated this might be done in the newly expanded 81-nation UN disarmament commission. But on outer space he empha- sized that the Soviet Union now expects the United States and other sponsors of the 20-nation resolution to show ''the necessary flexibility and follow the path of mutual agreement," Norfolk Votes tO ose Integration NORFOLK, Va.

The challenge of Communism, Mrs. Roosevelt said, will be issued mainly in the underprivileged na- tions of the world. And to meet it, she said, this country must under- stand that "in a large part of the world, the first freedom is the Freedom to Eat." America's greatest opportunities for positive leadership lie in , the economic and spiritual spheres, she said. And she asked increased efforts in these "two areas where we could lead but are not." Could Lead Spiritually she said, "particularly because some countries do not buy these things anyway." 'Understanding' Cited These steps, Mrs. Roosevelt said, are one factor of leadership; "understanding" is the other. "If you are going to convince the underprivileged nations that your type of world is better than an- other, you must understand how the rest of the world lives, how they feel and what their problems are." she declared. The great thing demanded of the American people, she ex- plained, is a "world viewpoint," something that does not come overnight. Leadership of the non-Commu- nist world.
