Both agencies have used Johnson, Johnson & Roy, a company specializing in city planning, for detail studies. An employe of the firm, for ex- ample, may have worked both ono the CBD "Guide to Action" and' the Central Campus plan and thus integrate the two, Leary noted. He added that the guide may have stimulated the Central Cam- pus plan by adding another "giv- en" to consider. The CBD study prescribes a framework-especial- ly- concerning streets-in which University, planners must operate.

RYAN Associated Press special Correspondent WASHINGTON-In advance of a meeting which could be the big- gest event in Cold War history, So- viet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev' is hurting badly. Ideologically speaking, though professing to yearn for world Communist unity, Mao Tze-tung has s k i n n e d Khrushchev alive and nailed his hide to the barn door. It is obvious now this is more than an ideological fuss between Moscow and Peking. It has the look of naked struggle for suprem- acy over the world Communist movement. The ideology quarrel seems just window dressing. Mao's offensive against Khrush- chev-the more painful to the Russian leader because he has no adequate way of fighting back- has impelled the Kremlin to take the unusual step of rebuking Pe- king's publicity. Good Reason Khrushchev had good reason to do so. Peking's truculence has in- fected much of the Communist world and has even generated sul- len rebellion against Soviet eco- nomic domination among Euro- pean satellites like Romania and Czechoslovakia. Such infections can be dangerously contagious. It will be a fascinating show when-and if-the Red Chinese and Russians sit down together as scheduled Friday to talk about their dispute. The prospects for peace grow dimmer every day. This is a power struggle, just as Stalin had his struggle with Trot- sky in the 1920's. Then, too, there was an ideological cover for the battle. But the real fight was over who would run the world Communist revolution. Seeks Power Peking is not looking for peace. Mao has named to head his dele- gation to Moscow a man who is fully capable of irritating Khrush- chev. The shrewd, able and un- compromising Chinese party sec- retary-general, Teng IHsaio-peng, is noted for arrogance in debate. He is just the man to rub Khrush- chev the wrong way. What does Mao want? He talks about Communist camp peace be- cause he does not want the blame for pulling it apart. But clearly he regards Khrushchev as incapable of heading the world revolution. Clearly he regards himself as the only rightful inheritor of Commu- nist world leadership, the only man who'has created a body of theory on his own, with stature. enough to rank beside Lenin and Stalin in the Red pantheon. To Mao's adherents, Khrushchev is an upstart, a man who as Mao is reported to believe, is a "rich peas- ant riding an H-bomb." World Conclave Mao wants to force Khrushchev into a meeting of Communist lead- ers from all 89 world parties. Pe- king seems cocksure it can con- vince the others that Khrushchev undermines, subverts and menaces the world revolutionary move- ment: that for the good of the movement, Khrushchev must be deposed. Khrushchev's followers do not relish such a showdown. When it comes~ to which party violates Marxism-Leninism, the Soviet first secretary hasn't a leg to stand on. Chinese theoreticians have cut him to pieces. Mao's supporters cite chapter and verse of Red scriptures to prove that Khrushchev is an arch- deviationist. Now the issue is join- ed. Peking is pushing its advan- tage, and this is a fateful moment for the Communist world. Resent Policies Communist leaders in Latin America, Africa and Asia are rest- less, resentful of Khrushchev poli- cies. They seem to look more and more to Peking for guidance to- ward the fastest road to revolu- tionary power. Peking's party considers itself the real voice of world revolution and of unremitting enmity to the United States. By implication, it accuses Khrushchev of thinking first of Russian national interests, and second of world revolution. The Chinese accuse Khrushchev of many sins. In advance of the Moscow meet- ing, Mao's party jolted the Rus- sians with a 30,000-word letter in language so strong that the Russians refused to print it. This letter detailed several dozen spe- cific Khrushchev sins. "Certain persons," said Peking-meaning Khrushchev's camp - have com- mitted crimes such as: -They tried to create new theo- ry, to avoid facing up to "the im- perialists"; Downgrade 'Struggle' -They downgrade the "libera- tion struggle" in backward coun- tries, betray the proletariat in cap- italistic countries, and art like "social democrats." That is about the worst thing one Communist can call another; -They exaggerate the idea of peaceful competition, failing to understand that Lenin considered war just "politics by other means." They consider revolutions possible without war; ,-Khrushchev's camp spreads fear that a spark from a revolu- tionary war can cause world con- flict. This, says Peking, is absurd, because it hasn't happened despite r -Daily-Kamalakar Rao OXFORD ROAD-The University's new 400-women dormitory is a recent subject of controversy be- tween the University and area residents. The neighbors, complained that the residence hall conflicted with local patterns, but the University said it conformed with land use in the area and would not disrupt it. ed to anchor off a green belt stretching from the Arboretum on the north. Different Approach However, many single-family dwelling owners south of Hill St. reacted differently. They asserted that the residence hall was linked to their area on the south and clashed with it. The residents protested to city council, but the council said It, could do nothing as the Univer- sity was an agency of the state and was not bound by zoning laws. The University likes to conform with existing land use patterns wherever possible. The sale of the old botanical gardens to develop- ers conforming to area zoning spe- cifications is an example of this. Final Judgment But the University, as a state institutionof internationalescope, must decider what its needs are and reserves the right to make final judgments. Fln1g e O foArd Rd. con- bers, Prof. John Arthos of the English department, a leading pro- tester of the University's Oxford Rd. decision. At its first meeting in late May, the committee decided to seek "an existing 10-year growth plan" of the University and raised pointed questions about Central Campus plans and the recent University purchase of the Argus Camera plant on the west side. No Repetition "We don't want to see a repe-, tition of the Oxford Rd. incident. Here University and city relations suffered and this fine residential neighborhood suffered because of the University's construction of a complex of residences. We want to see that this sort of thing does not happen again," committee chair- man Jacques LesStrang declared. As one of its four major objec- tives, the committee included, "To work with the University in city- University relations in such a way that the best interests of Ann Ar- bor are considered in plans of the Universitywhich, in any way, al- ters or affects the physical ap- pearance of the city." However, several city council- men have voiced concern over the "strong statement" of the commit- tee. Clear Council First Ward Democratic Coun- cilman John L. Teachout indicated that he thought committee state- ments should first clear council before being released to the press. He said he was concerned with possible damage to city-University relations. Inferring a possible clash with the council's city-University rela- tions committee and the planning commission; Second Ward Republi- can Councilmen John Dowson and William E. Bandemer said that the committee's precise duties should have been listed by council. The city's close planning rela- tionship with the University is strengthened by close ties in other areas. The city-University rela- tions committee of council consid- ers other matters aside from plan- ning although services, stemming from city and University planning decisions, such as water and sew- age, are discussed as are projects of joint concern, such as, the Ful- ler Rd. engineering study.

University parking regulations are considered city or- dinances., The University also pays regu- lar water and sewage rates as well as regular capital improvement as- sessments. Payments to City Total University payments to the city were more than $650,000 last year. The city and: the University are linked in other ways. University facilities are used for community activities and the University schools serve area students. Mc- Kevitt estimated that the Uni- versity pumped more than $75 mil- lion into the city through its an- nual payroll. Another area is research, espe- cially since the University has been striving to make state industry more aware of research potentiali- ties. Tomorrow - University Re- search and the City. Enicksen Sees Automation Techniques As Replacements for Lecture Halls Automation will turn college lec- ture halls into discussion forums, Stanford C. Ericksen, director of the University Center for Research on Learning and Teaching, said recently. He said teaching machines will allow students to learn more on their own initiative. The professor thereby will gain "some degree of freedom from his traditional role of telling things to students and move closer to the more rewarding relationship of discussing things with his stu-. dents," he said. Ericksen spoke at the opening session of the 25th Alumni Uni- versity, the traditional Commence- ment Week program.j 'Omnibus Man' For too many years, he pointed out, we have nourished the tra-, dition of the college professor as an "omnibus man" who is sup- posed to be all things to all youth -information giver, character builder, counselor, chaplain, eval- uator, inspirer, critic, disciplinar- ian, and even baby sitter.
