LXXII, No. 28-S ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, FRIDAY, AUGUST 3,1962 SEVEN CENTS FOUR PAGES Research Picture Clouded, With Indirect Cost Limits Ben Bella Wins Power To Rule With New Peace Pact in Algeria With the Congressional picture clouding up considerably, Vice- President for Research Ralph Sawyer said last night the Uni- versity is willing to accept federal research grants with a 25 per cent limit on indirect costs not covered by the grants themselves. However, officials here are still studying what should be done with those having only a 20 per cent allowance. The normal extent of indirect costs (space and facilities) at the University normally runs about 30 per cent of 'the grants' direct funds, which cover supplies and salaries. The University has to finance the difference out of its own pocket.. FUTURE IN DOUBT-These raccoons at the University Zoo may not be around very much longer, as the zoo will he torn down. The animals will be either given away or destroyed. Zoo Doomed to Make Way For Biosystematies Center The University Zoo soon will be no more. Forced to make room for the new $1 million addition to the Mu- seum Bldg., the zoo has only enough money to care for the animals- eight kinds of turtles, two black bears, two foxes, five raccoons and one skunk (deodorized)-for three more months. The facility-the animal cage and reptile pit at the rear-will have to go by fall, when construction begins for the new national Both houses of Congress this week approved setting a 20 per cent ceiling in stipends from the Defense Department and Health, Education and Welfare Depart- ment. But the House sent a bill to the Senate Wednesday providing for a 25 per cent allowance in grants from the National Science Foun- dation, National Aeronautics and Space Agency and the Atomic En- ergy Commission. If these measures are passed as they stand now, the University would gain nearly $.25 million overall, Sawyer indicated. Prev- iously, the defense grants had no limitation, but the HEW funds had a 15 per cent limit. The other three sources remain about the same. Defense Danger Sawyer cited one big danger, though, which conceivably could wipe out whatever the University would gain: if the Defense Depart- ment insists on converting its con- tracts (with no limits) into grants, thus, paying out only another 20 instead of around 30 per cent of the direct grant costs. The vice-president said he still plans to meet with representatives from other Big Ten universities and the University of Chicago to discuss what combined action, if any, should be taken in reaction to the new cost restrictions, and to the possibility of the defense grant rearrangements. He also plans to confer by tele- phone with research heads at the Massachusetts Institue of Tech- nology and the University of Cali- fornia, both of which have a heavy load of federally-sponsored research. Could Be Important The meetings would be strictly informal, and would not take place until Congress completes its action on appropriations. But the Uni- versity's policy on the 20 per cent levels "might depend on what the other schools want to do," Sawyer said. Last week, he warned that the University would refuse any de- fense grants having a 15 per cent limitation, and threatened not to increase the volume of work done under HEW auspices at that figure. Dean Travels To Conference 'Strengthened' WASHINGTON (R) - Disarma- ment negotiator Arthur H. Dean said yesterday President John F. Kennedly's offer of new concessions for a nuclear test-ban treaty with Russia will strengthen his hand when he returns to Geneva today. "I think the President's state- ment will enable us to sound out the Soviet Union and determine if it is interested in effectively con- trolled disarmament with the gen- eral obligatory principle of on-site inspections," he told reporters after briefing the Senate Disarma- ment Subcommittee. The critical issue -is international inspection inside the Soviet Union. Kennedy appealed to the Russian government to drop its total oppo- sition to such inspection at a White House meeting late Wed- nesday. Release By GERALD STORCH The latest quarterly survey by the Survey Research Centert on consumer attitudes ended interviews on May 29-barely 1 too late to gather opinions on the effect of the stock market's sad days on purchasing habits.' So the next survey to be com- pleted early in September by Professors George Katona and Eva Mueller of the Institute for Social Research will "make an extensive study of the im- pact of the stock market de- cline on consumer attitudes," 1 Prof. Katona reports.l With interviews beginning c two days ago, this survey is al-t so probing another pertinent is-i sue: tax reduction. "We want to find out what people know about it, how they feel about it, why they maintain a pro orE con attitude, and, by means of indirect questioning, what they would do with any extra money i from a tax cut," he adds. 1,300-Member Sample1 These questions are in addi- tion to the usual measurements of consumer inclinations to buy.£ They are based on a nation-X wide cross-section of 1,300 adults, selected by the center'st widely-known probability meth- ods The latest quarterly survey, issued last month, found con-i ::.: :::::::. i:.

Pears (R-Buch- anan) were the only congressional candidates to appear last night, as the Berrien County Republican Screening Committee met to in- vestigate Boothby's charges against an opponent, St. Joseph attorney Chester J. Byrns, '51L. Byrns, accused of being in favor of world federalism and misrep- resenting his party affiliation, re- fused" to appear. He called the probe "an insult to the voters." Boothby made the charges here Monday night, and Byrns has de- nied, but not refuted them. Two newspapers, St. Joseph Her- ald-Press and the Benton Harbor News-Palladium, supported Byrns in yesterday's edition and loudly denounced the GOP investigation. Group Puts Up Duke However, the committee chair- man C. C. "Duke" Harrah of Niles, made it clear that the investiga- tion was not an attempt "to smear Byrns," but merely an effort to "get the true picture." The papers have also attempted to link Pears to the Boothby at- tack, but the committee vindicated the Speaker on that count. The committee, comprised of seven Berrien County Republicans and the six GOP county chairmen in the district found both Pears and Boothby "forthright with the voters." Daily Gets Attention However, it did question 3yrns' background with reference to Boothby's charges and regretted that he refused to appear. The committee said it was unable to reconcile Byrns' campaign state- mevnt of being a life-long Republi- can with the letter he published in The Daily in 1949. At that tine, he described himself as "a -nem- ber of no political party." Byrns' statement to the paper, the committee decided, "seems to center for research into animal biosystematics. Searching Prof. Irvin G. Reimann, director of the Exhibit Museum and who also is in charge of the 'zoo, is trying to find a new home for the animals, either singly or in groups. If he cannot find proper homes, however, the animals will have to be destroyed. Placement is a big problem, he admits, as 'the established zoos have surpluses of these kinds of creatures and do not care to ac- quire more. Turtle Types Much research was done on the animal inhabitants, especially on the array of turtles: five species of musk turtles, two kinds of Mex- ican sliders and one type of box turtle. Prof. Reimann said the zoo has been a very popular attraction for residents and visitors since its con- struction in 1928, and added that a city the size of Ann Arbor was fortunate in having a zoo of its own. If he ever gets a new zoo facil- ity, he would make it -larger and more modern than the doomed University model. Consumer Survey PROF. ALBERT STEIGERWALT directs program . Venezuelans' Study Starts In spite of a severe budget cut- back, 20 Venezuelan undergradu- ates will begin an intensive six- week study of United States eco- nomics in the context of North American culture with a tour to- day of Ford's Rouge Plant. They are the third group of Ven- ezuelan students in the past three years brought to the University by the State Department under its "Exchange of Persons Program," initiated about six years ago. "While other colleges and uni- versities throughout the country have had similar courses sponsor- ed by the State Department, the University's seminar is unique in- sofar as it is the only one which has been continued," Prof. Albert Steigerwalt of the business admin- istration school and director of the program, said yesterday. Change in Emphasis He indicated that the $34,000 budget (paid for wholly by the State Department), represents a considerable cut-back from last year's appropriation due to "more stress being placed on African students rather than Latin Ameri- cans." This means that trips to Chi- cago, Niagara Falls, and other scenic wvonders which were made in 1960 and 1961 will have to be cancelled. "The students are selected main- ly on the basis of achievement, both in their studies and activi- ties, for what we want is a sam- pling of the leaders of Latin Amer- ican youth,' Peter Schoderbek, an instructor in industrial manage- ment, added. Language Problem Schoderbek noted that none of the students speak English (all. of the seminars will be conducted in English), but added that this rep- resents no real problem since in- terpreters will be p r o v i d e d throughout their stay. In addition to studying econom- ics, the group will hold discus- sions about the social structure, politics, unions, and foreign policy in the United States, and will take numerous field trips to industrial plants and union headquarters.' ECM Countries WORLD NEWS ROUNDUP: Reach Accord Expand Food Stamps; On Eligibility Foil Assasination Plot. sumers during the spring months to be "soberly optimis- tic," with the outlook particu- larly favorable for the automo- bile market. Professors Katona and Muel- ler concluded that consumers' satisfaction with their own fi- nancial situation had improved since November, but their ex- pectations regarding general business conditions took a turn for the worse. See No Inflation The favorable outlook for personal finances, was buoyed by price stability, "or more pre- cisely, by absence of the feeling that rising prices are reducing real income. "The proportion of people who expect to be better off in another year has not been high- er at any time in the past 10 years," the authors continued. "And even long-run personal fi- nancial expectations, which usually show great stability, have grown somewhat more op- timistic in recent months." But attitudes toward business conditions, which had improv- ed decidedly between Novem- ber 1961 and the early parts of 1962, then declined again by the start of summer. Upper Crusty In particular, individuals with incomes of $7,500 or more were BRUSSELS (P)-Ministers for the six Common Market countries agreed yesterday on another pointi preliminary to Britain's proposed1 membership: which British de-1 pendent territories will be associ-( ated with the market. The six also agreed on associa- tion for British Commonwealth { empire countries in Africa: Glia-I na, Nigeria, Sierre Leone, Togo, Tanganyika and the Federation of the Rhodesias and Nyasaland. The, Commonwealth countries could be admitted under the same status as the 18 African countries which formerly were French and Belgian territories. Edward Heath, heading Britain's delegation, told the ministers that Britain accepts the market's fi- nancial regulations for agriculture. But he asked for a written inter- pretation. Financial regulations provide for an agricultural fund built up with tariff receipts. By 1970, all tariff receipts would go into the fund and would be used to improve ag- riculture. Heath offered Britain's reply to the Market's proposal on Com- monwealth agricultural exports. It suggested shortening from 1970 to 1965 the period during which Com- monwealth countries adapt to the Market's outer tariff. By The Associated Press WASHINGTON-President John F. Kennedy yesterday directed the Agriculture Department to extend the food-stamp plan to an addi- tional 25 areas in 18 states and to continue it in eight pilot areas. A to- tal of 223,000 people wil be involved in the extension. ACCRA-Police rounded up 25 persons yesterday in an apparent effort to determine whether the attempt to assassinate President Kwame Nkrumah was motivated by a political plot. The 52-year-old African leader escaped unharmed when a bomb exploded Wednesday night near his car in a village 500 miles north of Accra. WASHINGTON - An abortive move to save and extend Billie Sol Estes' dubious cotton-acreage al- lotments was made by an Agricul- ture Department official early this year, Senate investigators were told yesterday.

Ben Khedda To Remain Figurehead Arniy-Backed Leader Returns Triumphant; To Prepare Elections ALGIERS (AP)-Ahmed Ben Bel- la, a tough former sergeant in the French Army, won his first major battle yesterday for power in new- ly independent Algeria. Two rival deputy premiers - Belkacem Krim and Mohammed Boudiaf-agreed to accept for the next month the leadership of the Ben Bella-led political bureau so as to avert catastrophe. The stage thus was set for the triumphal arrival of Ben Bella and his lieutenants in the capital today to take over temporary rule. Has Little Power Premier Ben Youssef Ben Khed- da, who remained aloof from the feud between his deputies, will re- main a nominal head of the pro- visional government, but the poli- cy-making power will rest in the political bureau. Under the truce. the seven-man bureau will prepare general elec- tions for Aug. 27 and then turn over power to the National Counm cil of the Algerian Revolution (CNRA), the old revolutionary parliament. The peace pact checked-at least temporarily-the running political crisis that has brought economic chaos and plunged the nation to the bring of anarchy only a month after winning independence from France. Reasons Ben- Bella's political foes said they bowed to pressure for a com- promise because "the Algerian people have been waiting for the fruits of their victories." The temporary solution, how- ever, fails to deal directly with the basic problem of Algeria of the future-the army and its dis- gruntled general staff. Headed by Col. Houari Boume- dienne, the general staff was fired by Ben Khedda's government-in- exile on the eve of independence. Officers Move In The officers of the 40,000 strong, well equipped troops, who waited in the wings in Tunisia and Mor- occo while guerrillas carried on the fight inside Algeria, rallied be- hind Ben Bella and moved in after independence. Officials in Algeria said the problem of the army would be ,ettled later, after the elections. Boudiaf, Ben Bella's major op- ponent, immediately prepared to leave for Paris to persuade for- mer state minister Hocie Ait Ah- med to return to Algiers and join the political bureau of which he is a member. Ait Ahmed left Algiers at the height of the crisis, appar- ently embittered by the political squabbling. Actual Rulers The seven-man political bureau will be the top policy-making body of Algeria's ruling party, the Front of National Liberation (FLN). Ben Khedda's provisional gov- ernment will remain functioning but will be dissolved after the elec- tions. EThe country's administration, however, will be in the hands of the French-appointed provisional executive. The executive's author- ity is limited, and has been large- ly supplanted by former guerrilla troops that took over the country. Union Begins 'MAJOR' SPORTS NOW IGNORED: Cricketing Comes Back!
