Plant Extension Program: Pave, Build, Beautify By ROBERT HIPPLER Though most University students are spending the summer away from classes, the Plant Extension Department isn't relaxing. Taking advantage of the good weather and lack of stampeding students, it is repairing sidewalks, paving streets, putting up structures and in- stalling electrical, plumbing and heating equipment. When the Jefferson Apartments on Thompson St. are torn down next month, the department will expand the steam tunnel heating system with a new tunnel from the Student Activities Building to the Michigan Union. By fall a new steam tunnel will be installed reaching from the north side of the SAB up Maynard St. to Thompson St. It will be used to heat the new Institute of Social Research Bldg. now under construction. New Conduits In three buildings-those belonging to the business school, the architecture and design college and the education school,-the de- partment will install new electrical conduits. "These will be part of the project to provide increased electrical energy to the southeast part of the Central Campus," James F. Brinkerhoff, director of the plant extension department, explained. These conduits will also serve as a part of the over-all effort to provide better electrical distribution and lighting in University buildings, Brinkerhoff said. The largest sidewalk project features the replacement and redesign of sidewalks torn up by the Bell Telephone Co. during the installation of Centrex, the new centralized campus telephone system. fidwalks are also being enlarged to accommodate increased student needs, Brinkerhoff explained. The most common feature of this enlarging and redesigning is the removal of the strip of grass between the sidewalk and street and extension of the sidewalk to the street, he said. Extensive Work Work on this is being done all over campus, but in several main areas: -The east s ide of State St., from William to South University, will be the site of sidewalk redesign later in the summer. -A stretch on the east side of Thayer from Washtenaw Ave. to just north of Hill Auditorium is an area planners have picked to redesign sidewalks and replace trees. The area involved will also be completely landscaped. -A third Centrex working area will be on the south side of West Quad, where workers will regrade the area and replace and See BRINKERHOFF, Page 3 UNIVERSITY REPAIR and renovation plans include Angell Hall . . -Daily-David Lambert this sidewalk being replaced in front of ... and a little facelifting, too ESSEX WIRE COMPANY: AN AFFRONT TO JUSTICE See Editorial Page QY r S irtg1 :4 I4 HOT High-96 Low- 70 Humid with possible showers Seventy-Three Years of Editorial Freedom VOL.

No. 7-S ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, WEDNESDAY, JULY 1,.1964 SEVEN CENTS FOUR PAGES HART SEEKS MONEY IN FISCAL '65 U.S. Debt to 'U'--$4 Million' By LAURENCE KIRSHBAUM The University was gypped out of $4 million in federal funds. during the 1964 fiscal year which ended at midnight. But Michi- gan's Democratic senators have pledged to secure the money in the new fiscal year beginning to- day. The .University failed to receive $2.5 million for a water pollution plant and $1.3 million for a General Library addition. It was eligible for both appropriations under programs passed during this session. However, the actual funds for these programs-called aid au- thorizations-were not approved. The office of Sen. Philip Hart (D-Mich) reported that both he and Sen. Patrick McNamara (D- Mich) are working to free the funds in the 1965 fiscal year. A spokesman for Hart explain- ed that the Univresity did not receive the funds this year "be- cause the civil rights filibuster clogged up the appropriations bills." Midwest Center The Midwest Water Pollution' Control Laboratory, to be located in Ann Arbor as a Great Lakes1 center, was approved in princi- ple last year. At that time both houses of Congress also authorized initial planning money for the project. Registration Drive Slows As Leaders Fear Violence PHILADELPHIA, Miss. (P)-The drive to spread college civil rights workers around Mississippi slowed yesterday due to fear they might be killed. Negro leaders said they were temporarily postponing some activi- ties in Southwest Mississippi-around Natchez and McComb. The announcement in Jackson, Miss., came as federal officials expanded the grim search for three men believed slain near here and Senate Sends Transit Bill To Johnson By The Associated Press The Senate yesterday completed congressional action on a bill authorizing $375 million in federal grants to help cities rescue or re- build outmoded mass transit sys- tems. The measure was sent to Presi- dent Lyndon B. Johnson after the Senate accepted House changes in a bill it originally passed over a year ago. The recent House passage of the measure was seen as a smashing victory for the President, and al- though Senate sponsors of the bill were unhappy with some of the House changes, they decided to go along rather than risk another House vote. New Office The legislation will set up a new Office of Mass Transportation in the Housing and Home Finance Agency under the direction of Prof. John C. Kohl, who is on leave from the engineering school. The new program puts the fed- eral government in the business "of subsidizing public transporta- tion systems to the tune of a three-year $375 million program. The bill provides federal grants for ailing mass transit sys- tems on the same basis as urban renewal-two-thirds federal funds and one-third local. Any Purpose The grants can only be used for purchase of new equipment and construction of new facilities, not for operations. Majority Leader Mike Mansfield (D-Mont), noting that the Senate has been pushing the measure since 1960, said he considered it a "miracle" that the bill ever cleared the House. hidden in the swamps that dot this east central sector. The 9- day-old search was extended into an adjoining county as 300 more sailors, under White House orders, joined the hunt. In Washington, the White House said President Lyndon B. Johnson was determined to employ what- ever federal manpower might be needed. But there remained widespread fear of further violence. Robert Moses, co-ordinator of the summer education and voter registration program for Negroes, told a news conference that people near Jackson were "heavily armed with automatic weapons and hand grenades. "As we understand it, there's a place in Natchez that's a depot for arms for the (Klu Klux) Klan," Moses said. In answer to questions, Moses declined to reveal the source of his information about the alleged arms depot or whether the arms had been seen. Moses said there now are 450 volunteers in the state with an- other 70 to 100 expected within the next 10 days. Mostly college students, they received an orien- tation course at a college in Ox- ford, Ohio. Earlier this year, the House ap- proved the aid authorization for the entire project-all $2.5 mil- lion-but the bill became bottled up in the Senate. When the Sen- ate appropriations subcommittee finally took up the measure last week, Hart testified forbits "speedy passage." The bill must still be reported to the committee as a whole and then it will go to the Senate floor. The spokesman for the senator predicted "expedient handling" of the project since funds for seven other similar laboratories around the country have already been ap- propriated. The University has not official- ly applied for $1.3 million to help fund the General Library addition, but figures to receive almost the full request. This money would contribute about a third of the $5 million necessary for the addition. State Body Under the $1.2 billion college construction bill, the University's money must first be funneled through a state commission. Called the State Higher Education Fa- cilities Commission, the nine-man body was set up by the Michigan Legislature earlier this year. The state of Michigan is allot- ted approximately $10 million a year on the basis of its projected college enrollments. In order to be eligible for these' funds, however, the state was re- quired to establish a "representa- tive agency" giving membership to public, privateand community college institutions. All these three types of schools are eligible to receive funds under the bill. For this Year But while the federal bill was supposed to begin making funds available for fiscal 1964, Congress "was forcedrto put off this action" by the legislative logjam, the Hart spokesman observed. University officials have not re- acted negatively to the failure to receive the funds thus far. Vice- President for Research Ralph Saw- yer waged a successful fight to have the $2.5 million pollution lab inserted into a House bill earlier this year. Vice-President for Business and Finance Wilbur K. Pierpont said that "the University's plan re-I main the same for applying for the funds." As Hart pointed out, the goal for the lab's completion is 1965, "but we won't make that date un- less Congress provides the funds which legally belong to the Uni- versity." 48 Votes Of Illinois To Barry CHICAGO (P)-Sen. Barry Gold- water (R-Ariz) won a 48 to 0 shut-out over Gov. William W. Scranton of Pennsylvania yester- day in a poll of the key Illinois delegation to the Republican na- tional convention. Goldwater called the vote "very significant." He told newsmen he would have "about 690 votes" for the presidential nomination on the first ballot at the party's na- tional convention next month. But, in response to questions as to whether this clinched the nom- ination, the Arizonan replied, "I'd like a few more, and then I'd say I'm over the hump." While Goldwater was forecast- ing vote totals, Henry Cabot Lodge also had a prediction on the nom- ination. He indicated after a 45- minute conference with Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower that he ex- pects the former President to speak out on the GOP nomina- tion before the party convention opens. Lodge told a news conference on the steps of a wing of Walter Reed Hospital that he thinks what Eisenhower has to say will have an influence on the Republican convention. But back in Illinois, political ob- servers began to admit that the General will be too late. He is reported to be against the nomi- nation of Goldwater. Sen. Everett M. Dirksen, chair, man of the 58-member Illinois delegation, said it conducted a poll showing 48 for Goldwater, 8# uncommitted, and 2 who did not participate in the voting. Dirksen said three of those who did not commit themselves and the two who abstained had leanings toward Goldwater. Meanwhile, in Lansing, Gov. George Romney said that Gold- water apparently is not eager for his support in the race for the Re- publican presidential nomination. He reached this conclusion when Goldwater made no plans to con- fer with him privately on the sen- ator's brief foray into Michigan. Congo LastI Adoula Quits; Powr Fight Immnen --Dally-Kamalakar Rao ACCUSATIONS OF discrimination in the Arbordale apartments, 1500 Pauline, touched off the court battle now being waged over Ann Arbor's Fair Housing Ordinance. In late March Bunyan Bryant complained to the city's Human Relations Commission that the C. F. Hubble Co. of Detroit, owners of the multiple-unit structure, had refused to rent to him because he is a Negro. When attempts at conciliation between the parties failed, the HRC decided to take the case to Municipal Court. FAIR HOUSING City Seeks To Validate Rulng Premier R .nN. Troops By JEFFREY GOODMAN The Washtenaw County Circuit Court will hear in the near fu- ture an appeal by City Attorney Jacob F. Fahrner that Ann Arbor's Fair Housing Ordinance is valid. The appeal is against a May ruling by Municipal Court Judge Francis O'Brien that the ordi- nance is invalid because it forces a person complaining of discrim- ination to go through the Ann Arbor Human Relations Commis- sion and because it forces the ac- cused to incriminate himself. The ordinance was passed lastI fall. It authorizes the HRC to re- ceive and attempt to conciliate complaints of discrimination in multiple housing. If conciliation fails, the commission is empower- Roundup esigns; Leave T4 National By The Associated Press DETROIT-General Motors Corp. and the United Auto Workers sat down at the bargaining table yesterday to draw up a new contract and both sides expressed hopes for a peaceful settlement. * * * * ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. - A committee has been established to mediate in the racial crisis in St. Augustine and civil rights demon- 'strations will be called off while it ed to turn its findings in the case over to the city attorney for court action. Still Stands Fahrner maintains not only that his currelit appeal prevents O'-' Brien's ruling from going into effect-therefore leaving the ordi- nance standing for the present- but that O'Brien was "in error" in his decision. According to the city's appeal, the ordinance in no way requires a complainant to go to the HRC in order to have action taken. "The (Municipal) Court held that the procedure of the ordi- nance interferred with the original jurisdiction of the Court to issue processes for, hear, try and de- termine all cases against persons charged with violation of the city ordinance. In this the court was in error," the appeal states. Interpretations O'Brien held that since the ordinance did not state his court's original jurisdiction in so many words, it thus denied such juris- diction and the citizen's tight to go directly to the court. "But there is a general law that if a statute may reasonably be interpreted more than one way -one of which makes it valid and the other invalid-the courts should choose the interpretation that would uphold the law," Fahr- ner mn into >is. On the issue of self incrimina- tion, O'Brien maintained that the HRC's procedure~ r' ;it ,:essure the accused into appearing and testifying before it. Since this might lead the defendant to tes- tify against himself, the law there- fore violates the Fifth Amend- ment. No Power "But it is not true that the HRC can compel appearance and testimony. Only if it had this right cou:d the issue of self i- crimination arise. "Appearance and testimony Luin The original ruling in Municipal Court appeared to suprise both Fahrner and the attorney for the defending C. F. Hubble Co. of Detroit, charged with discrimina- tion at the Arbordale apartments. Both attorneys had expected O'Brien to pass on whether or not the state pre-empts the field of civil rights laws. O'Brien said nothing about this issue. Fahrner maintains that the law will stand even after it is chal- lenged and decided on the pre- emption question. 'Not a Civil Right' "The right not to be discrimi- nated against in private housing is not a civil right until it has been declared such by the state Legislature. In the absence of this right; only local ordinances can do this," Fahrner said. His view opposes that of state Attorney General Frank Kelley, who contends that such a right is already guaranteed in the state constitution. NEA Measure For Integration Clears Hurdle SEATTLE, Wash. (M)-A reso- lution which says in effect "in- tegrate now" to the all-white teacher associations in 11 South- ern states has cleared its first hurdle at the convention of the National Education Association. The paper-thin margin of vic- tory, however, makes ultimate de- feat virtually certain. The resolution, which gave the Southern affiliates a deadline of July 1, 1966, to get integration well under way or face expulsion from NEA, was adopted by the NEA's Department of Classroom Teachers, 1,004 to 985. The reso- International Force Departs Unnoticed Prior To, Shakeup LEOPOLDVILLE, The Congo P) -The Congo lost its United Na- tions shield and its government yesterday on the fourth anniver- sary of independence- four years stained by bloodshed and plagued by rebellion. President Joseph Kasavubu an- nounced the resignation of Pre- mier Cyrille Adoula and his gov- ernment three hours after the last 143 UN soldiers flew from the Con- go. As bickering political leaders groped for national reconciliation, there was wide speculation that Moise Tshombe, political foe of Adoula, may be named the next premier. It was this departing UN force that defeated Tshombe's se- cessionist government in Katanga province in 1963. May Ask Adoula Some diplomats, however, ex- pected Kasavubu to ask Adoula to head a provisional government un- til new elections are held. Despite a spreading leftist re- volt in the Eastern Congo, Adou- la's government had not asked the UN force to remain. In New York, Secretary-General U Thant said the United Nations still had tasks in the Congo-"by far the largest of all UN technical assistance operations." He said political reconciliation and the retraining of the Con- go's relatively weak army are two major conditions for maintaining peace in the former Belgian Con- go, but the task of maintaining law and order now is up to the Congolese. Not a single Congolese official went to the airport to pay his respects to the departing 85 Niger- ian and 58 Canadian UN soldiers. It was the rear guard of a force that once numbered 20,000 men. It was through their efforts that Adoula's government: was able to establish its authority over Ka- tanga, the richest province in the Congo and a pillar of the coun- try's economy. Expect Resignation The resignation of the Adoula government was expected. It was known that Kasavubu would have to name a provisional government to rule until a new parliament is elected under the nation's new constitution in about nine months. Parliament was elected for four years and its time ran out on this anniversary date, which was not celebrated officially because of the political situation. A referendum now is in prog- ress to ascertain the nation's de- cision on the new constitution to replace the "101 fondamentale," a makeshift constitution drawn up under Belgian inspiration in 1960.
