Kennedy pledged yesterday that the United States would use all its power to forge a worldwide pact to freeze the spread of atomic weapons: In an unprecedented appearance before wildly applauding members of the Irish Dail (Parliament), Kennedy recalled that it was Ire- land which sponsored a United Nations resolution to stop the spread of nuclear arms and find a way to control them. "I pledge to you that the United States will do all in its p ower. to achieve such an agree- mert and fulfill your resolution," he added. Warm Reception Kennedy's appearance before the Dail climaxed another day of heartwarming reception by the Irish. Irish enthusiasm momen- tarily endangered his safety. The President told the ;ail that Ireland, as a small nation sup- porting the United Nations to the extent of sending troops to the Congo, had -set an example for all the smaller nations. "The peacekeeping machinery of the United Nations cannot work without the help of small nations -nations whose forces threaten no one and whose forces can thus help create a world where no nation is threatened by force," he said. Dublin Is Enthusiastic Back in Dublin, the welcome for l Kennedy was Just as enthusiastic as ever, but the crowds were rea- sonably disciplined. The President visited Paria- ment around what the Irish call "tay time," shortly after 4 p.m. He stopped earlier at the Arbour Hill Cemetery attached to the Church of the Sacred Heart, where he laid a wreath at the graves of 14 Irishmen who were executed for their part in the 1916 rising against the British. The fifteenth man of the party was Eamon de Valera, now Ken- nedy's host as President of Ire- .q land. From Parliament, Kennedy pro- ceeded by motorcade to Dublin castle, ancient,- seat of the British rulers of Ireland, where in hand- somely gilded St. Patrick's Hall he received an honorary degree from the National University of Ire- land. He also received a degree from Trinity College. Kennedy winds up his tour of Ireland today. Tomorrow Kennedy journeys to London for a quick round of con- ferences with Prime Minister Har- old Macmillan. The talks will largely deal with European de- fense." Macmillan's critics see the visit, however, as an attempt to bol- ster his shaky regime. Group Studies Civil Defense Shelter Fate WASHINGTON (W - President Johh F. Kennedy's $175 million fallout shelter program-its legacy that of a legislative stepchild- appears headed for a test on the House floor. But the man who would be in charge of guiding civil defense leg- S Islation through the House con- ceded yesterday it would take an all-out campaign to win approval. The administration's civil de- fense boss, while optimistic about prospects for Hoise passage of the message, said its chances in the Senate are dim. / That's the situation after five weeks of civil defense hearings be- fore a House armed services sub- committee headed by Rep. F. Ed- ward Hebert (D-La). Hebert said the subcommittee will resume executive-session hear- ings July 10, taking secret testi- mony from Pentagon officials be- fore it decides what to do about- the legislation.t Hebert himself indicates he's for the measure. With millions of lives potentially at stake, he said, if Congress errs, it should be in the direction of caution. Hebert would be floor manager of any civil iefense bill sent to the House by the Armed Services Committee. The bill would authorize a $175 million appropriation to provide federal incentive payments to pub- lic and non-profit institutions which build public fallout shelters.

Macmillan ToContinue As Conservative Leader LONDON (P)-Prime Minister Harold Macmillan said last night he would not panic over the Profumo scandal and he intends to lead the Conservative party in Britain's next election. A Tory critic of Macmillan quickly commented this would mean civil war within the party. Recording his first television interview since a sex and security State Debt Reaches Low Point By The Associated Press LANSING - Michigan's state government will end its fiscal year Sunday with a general fund sur- plus in excess of $55 million. The surplus, which results from increased tax collections reflect- ing a high level of business activ- ity during the last 12 months, will reduce the state's long stand- ing general fund deficit below $30 million. This will be its lowest point since June 30, 1958, when the deficit first appeared. The red ink at that time added up to $21 million. Revised Figures The revised figures on the gen- eral fund result from a report by State Revenue Director Clarence W. Lock, who closed his books Friday on June tax collections. Lock reported: 1) Sales and use tax collections for June, representing May busi- ness activity, totaled $44.2 mil- lion, an increase of $2.8 million over June last year. Fiscal Year 2) Tentative figures for the fiscal year ending Sunday indicate sales tax collections of $456 mil- lion compared with $427 million last year 3) Use taxes came to $45 million for the year, an increase of $10 million from last year. Total sales and use taxes were $21 million higher than estimated last January when Gov. Romney submittedhis budget to the Legis- lature for the first fiscal year starting July 1. Scott Blasts GOP Feuds SAN FRANCISCO () - Sen. Hugh Scott said last night the way for Republicans to lose the 1964 presidential election is to "beat each other to bits now" in a con- servative-versus-liberal row. In a speech prepared for a na- tional convention of Young Re- publicans which has demonstrated marked approval for the views of Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-Ariz) Scott said "misplaced zeal and unduly violent clashes of opin- ion" could cripple the party and lose the next election. Scott, a Pennsylvania and a former GOP national chairman who is regarded as a moderate, called on his listeners to support the party's choice of presidential and vice presidential candidates by 1964 "whoever they may be." "I am for a Republican victory next year," he said. "You are for a Republican victory next year. But to beat each other to bits now is a sure way to let our opposition beat us once more at the polls. Let us leave lunacy to those who would ride our money to the moon. "With misplaced zeal and un- duly violent clashes of opinion, we can cripple ourselves grievously, lose sight of our goal of good, wise and responsible government, and lose the next election. "Let us find our way to our selected leaders with tolerance of our own differences of opinion and emphasis on those things on which we all agree. . . We all agree that the great question is not whether or not we are going to turn the clock back. but how we can prevent it from being re- wound every hour." "There are ties between France and the United States which ought not to be jeopardized by this sort of parochialism and petti- ness of phrase," Mansfield said.

By PHILIP SUTIN Co-Editor Slight headway is being made in implementing -the Central Business District "Guide to Ac- tion" plan for renovating the city's core. The plan drafted last winter was approved by the City Coun- cil in March and engineering studies toward solving CBD traffic problems are scheduled for the next fiscal year. The plan hopes to make the district more attractive to cus- tomers by unifying, as much as possible, its- three basic elem- ments-the Main, State and South University Streets shop- ping areas - by diverting through traffic around the dis- trict and by beautifying it. Notes Advantages Noting the diversity of busi- ness and private and govern- mental services located in the CBD, its central location and nearness to the University and extensive private housing, the guide also assesses several se- vere drawbacks. It warns against the tendency of the district to sprawl north and south along Main St. rather than joining up with the State St. section. The South Univer- sity section is cut off by part of the University's Central Campus. There is also a "middle ground" of small offices and homes between Division and Fifth Streets which divide the Main and State St. areas. Small Blocks Further, there are many small blockshdestroying the continuity of the district and making pedestrian traffic dif- ficult. The district is also bro- ken up by several manufactur- ing plants and warehouses, the guide notes. Land uses fragment different sections, ratner tnan encourage activity between them, the re- port adds. To meet the optimistic $32.2 million in retail CBD sales, there should be 140,000 more square feet of shopping space, including a 90,000 sq. ft. depart- ment store, 30,000 square feet of convenience good stores, 60- 120,000 square feet of non- governmental office space, 150- 200 new hotel or motel rooms. 250 new apartment units and 15,000 square feet of new retail service facilities constructed, the guide recommends. Plazas, Prominade In addition, the report sug- gests that activities be more concentrated in the Main and State St. areas. To unify and beautify the area, plazas should be consttucted along Liberty St. and a 'civic prominade" shouud be built along Fifth St. to link up governmental and civic fa- cilities. New retailing and ware- housing facilities should be built along Ashley St. and mo- tel, hotel, office and conference center buildings should be lo- cated along the CBD perimeter, the report suggests. To simplify pedestrian traffic, mid-block walkways should be constructed. The report notes that the current checkerboard traffic patterns hinder CBD develop- ment by bringing excess traffic, desiring to pass through the district, to the CBD. On-street parking in the district also hin- ders the streets' efficiency. Ease Load The Eastbelt and proposed Northbelt -Expressways' will eliminate some of, this load. To improve traffic flow, the report suggests that Packard Rd. and Beakes St. be extended to Ash- ley St. Division, State and Ann Streets would be widened and parking removed and Williams St. would. be extended to join,, Liberty St. and Washington St. to join Huron St. west of Third St. This expansion is designed to divert traffic from the center of the CBD and speed non- See CBD, Page- 3 storm forced his war minister, To Start iit Talks Job End Jailing Of Wender By JEAN TENANDER Susan Wender, '65, a worker for the Student Non-violent Co- ordinating Committee in Albany, was released from jail yesterday morning on a 60-day suspended sentence after being charged and convicted of vagrancy. She was arrested eight days ago in Albany, Ga., while she and two other girls were walking through a Negro neighborhood to notify people of a general meeting later that day. Miss Wender said she and her two companions werernot loitering but were walking from house to house, stopping only to inform the inhabitants of the meeting. Vagrancy Charges Two policemen on motorcycles approached the girls and told them they' were under arrest on suspi- cion of vagrancy. The girls lay down in the street and were drag- ged to a detectives' car and taken to the police station. During the eight days the girls were in jail they refused to eat anything and drank only water. Miss Wender lost 14 pounds. She said there were some people in jail who had been fasting for 10 days and were on the verge of passing out. At one point Chief of Police Laurie Pritchett asked the girls to eat something, Miss Wener said,. The work of SNCC in the area has been slowed down consider- ably because of the increasing chance of being arrested, Miss Wender noted. She said people who are known to be involved with SNCC have only to walk down .the street to be picked up on some charge. At present groups of SNCC workers are hiding in local church- es afraid to walk outside. Bottles and Bricks A boy working with SNCC was arrested a few days ago on a charge, which Miss Wender said, was so vague the police could not even pretend they could prove it. The police said they arrestedhim "because bottles and bricks were thrown at a fire engine from the general direction in which the boy was standing," she explained. Although there are officers of the Federal Bureau of Investiga- tion in the area, Miss Wender said, most of them were local Southern- ers and could do nothing more than file a report. The Justice Department has been informed of the various mci- dents but they have done nothing hn Profumo, out in disgrace, Mac- millan said: "All being well and if I keep my health and strength, I hope to lead the party at the next election." Public Meeting An hour before appearing on the nation's television screens he told a public meeting in industrial Wolverhampton that, in handling the Profumo affair, he did not in- tend "to fall either into panic or obstinacy-or complacency." He said: "My own duty is clear. I have first, as head of government, a duty to the nation as a whole. I have also, as leader of the Con- servative party, a duty to the party, its life, its strength and its future. "Both these duties I intend to discharge." Refuse To Quit Macmillan emphasized his re- fusal to quit less than 24 hours before he is due to meet President John F. Kennedy for important talks. By serving notice he is no lame-duck premier, he possibly strengthens his own negotiating position. At the same time he lets the rebels in Iii sown party know he is still a force to be reckoned with. Political authorities in touch with Tory opinion had been as- suming that, with the best will in the world, Macmillan was un- likely to stay on as prime minister much beyond late summer. Caucus Wrangles Only Thursday the atmosphere of confusion and division worsen- ed when a party caucus - meeting wrangled bitterly over the lead- ship issue and maneuvers to keep him in office. There were two qualifications in Macmillan's pledge. He left him- self the chance to retire for health reasons if the going gets too tough. His reference to "all being well" could be taken to mean that his future rests on what support he can win. 'GRATUITOUS SLUR': Rap de aulle urope Statement WASHINGTON ()-Senators of both parties hit back in sharp words yesterday at a spokesman for French President Charles de Gaulle who questioned the dur- ability of President John F. Ken- nedy's pledge to defend Western Europc. "A gratuitous slur," Sen. Mike Mansfield of Montana, the Demo- cratic leader, told his colleagues. He suggested it would be helpful if de Gaulle would join Kennedy in "the high purpose" of achiev- ing unity rather than disunity. Sen. Jacob K. Javits (R-NY) said he agreed with Mansfield. At the same time the state de- partment threw back at the Frenchman, Information Minister Alain Peyrefitte, the words in which Kennedy, speaking in West Germany, coupled his pledge with strong criticism of de Gaulle's go- it-alone policy for Europe. Asked about Peyrefitte's state- ment, state department press offi- cer Richard T. Phillips said: "The position of the United States on this matter has been stated emphatically and clearly by the President, and I think his re- marks speak for themselves." Mansfield called the French official's remarks "a distinct dis- appointment" and "a gratuitous slur which I cannot believe repre- sents the considered sentiment of the people of France." Javits in giving his backing cited the commitment of the most re- May Prepare For Session With Chinese Kremlin Statement Hints at Jostling For Ideological Stand BERLIN (A)-Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev arrived in East Berlin yesterday and sped through a lackluster reception to plunge into a surprise summit meeting with Soviet satellite leaders. The Soviet leader was believed to be lining up his East European satellites behind Kremlin policy in the ideological conflictwith Pe- king and, possibly charting a new course for better relations with the West. The Kremlin suggested this yesterday in publishing a Moscow speech Khrushchev made last weekcsaying thathPresident John F. Kennedy had decided the time had come for better relations with the Soviet Union. Follows Kennedy The announced reason tf o r Khrushchev's visit to East Berlin on the heels of President Ken- nedy's triumphant mid-week re- ception in West Berlin was the 7 0 t h anniversary celebrations Sunday for East German Com- munist boss Walter Ulbricht. But as the official East German news agency ADN disclosed one by one the names of other Com- munist leaders arriving in East Berlin, it began to appear that the most important Communist meeting since the 1961 Moscow Party Congress was in the mak- ing. The Communist chieftains al- ready on hand, besides Khrush- chev a n d Ulbricht, included Wladyslaw Gomulka of Poland, Antonin Novotny of Czchoslovakia Janos Kadar of Hungry and Todor Zhivkov of Bulgaria. One Absentee One notable absentee so far was Romania's President Gheorghe Gheorgiu-Dej. He is reported angry with the Kremlin's eco- nomic plans for Romania and that satellite's reime has recently made noises that suggest it might follow Albania and side with Red China in intra-Communist con- flict. If Khrushchev, had any idea of waging a popularity contest with Kennedy in Berlin, he failed. Khrushchev drew crowds much smaller and much less enthusiastic than Kennedy did in West Berlin Wednesday. Satellite Speeches But Khrushchev in Berlin ap- parently was preoccupied with the matters he was to take up with the satellite speeches. He made only indirect references to Ken- nedy, who now is in Ireland, and spoke in relatively mild terms of Communist glories. Khrushchev made no threats toward the West nor did he praise Ulbricht, who advocates a more militant line toward the West on Berlin. The Khrushchev speech dis- closed in Moscow yesterday was made at a meeting of the Central Committee of the Soviet Commun- ist Party. Khrushchev apparently w a s speaking in reply to Kennedy's June 10 speech at American Uni- versity in which Kennedy called for a new, determined effort to secure world peace and also an- nounced high level nuclear test ban talks would open in Moscow in mid-July. ZIF. Students and Ann Arbor residents will have new ad- dresses Monday-the ZIP (Zone Improvement) Code goes into effect. This nationwide post office reform adds a new number to cent Republican administration, that of President Dwight D. Eisen- hower, to the defense of Europe as evidence of this country's con- tinuing policy of defending "the cause of freedom." Javits declared that Democrats and Republicans alike back the Kennedy pledge. Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (D- Minn), assistant Democratic lead- er, said the French spokesman would "do well to retract the words." Mansfield said it was a matter of deep regret that Peyrefitte, "evidently speaking for President de Gaulle," made the statement the French government had never doubted Kennedy's resolution, but "'may well ask what the successor of President Kennedy may say in ten years' time.' " Describing himself as an admir- er of de Gaulle, off his war record and of his other achievements, Mansfield told the Senate, "I must say that this statement of his spokesman comes as a distinct dis- appointment." "What President Kennedy is trying to do is to heal the split in the Westernalliance and to bring unity in the place of dis- array," Mansfield said. He added that no country would benefit more than France and "no man could play a more significant role in that alliance than Presi- dent de Gaulle." "There are ties between France and the United States which are of such profound significance that they uoght not to be jeopardized by this sort of parochialism and pettiness of ' phrase," Mansfield said. l World News Roundup By The Associated Press NEW YORK-The Religion and Race Commission of the National Council of Churches yesterday adopted a program designed to put more force behind the Council's position against racial .discrimin- ation.
