specific rules mechanically ap-
plied by the courts. But Prof.
Harvey pointed out that dis-
cretion in the administration
of law is inevitable. Under this
English view, according to Prof.
Harvey, "rule by the law alone
comes close to meaning rule by
the judges alone." x
Moving on to the second
basic theory, the professor said
procedural safeguards alone
cannotdguarantee the "rule of
law." The American tradition
of due process of law basically
includes: the right to a mean-
ingful day in court; fully in-
dependent deciding officers;
and day-to-day decisions ra-
tionalized in terms of both gen-
eral principle and the demands
of the particular situation.
To illustrate the error of
equating the 'rule of law" with
fair procedures, Prof. Harvey cited recent treason trials in
South Africa.
There, he said, the excellent judicial system could not
override the flaws in basic laws enacted by the National As-
sembly and, thus, justice was thwarted. Summing up this point,
Prof. Harvey said:
"If the 'rule of law' is a concept fully adequate to the needs
of men in defining their relations to civil government, it can-
not focus entirely on one manifestation of governmental power.
It must comprehend the legislature and the executive, as well
as the courts."
Prof. Harvey also said natural law principles have not pro-
vided an adequate foundation for the "rule of law." He said
that while the ancient belief in a law of nature and reason has
often been a rallying point in the fight for human dignity, it
has at other times "served as a shield and buckler for those
who resisted the felt needs of their times in blindness to the
vision of a better tomorrow."
In further criticism of the natural law analysis, Prof. Har-
vey said natural law thinkers have failed to agree on the con-
tent of supra-mundane norms.
He also commented that "it is a regrettably short step from
insistence that nothing is law unless it is right to the conclusion
that whatever is law, in terms
of legal enactment or declara-
tion, is therefore right."
In discussing the reasons for
v analyzing the "rule of law" in
s the first place, Prof. Harvey
said:
"In a technological, complex
~'~' >#.society like that in which we
live, it isunthinkable to reduce
governmental authority and
the administration of justice
to the elemental level of pre-
serving the public peace.
"Yet how can we reconcile
such great and pervasive power
with the preservation of those
values we cherish most high-
ly?"

Eichmann Case

Ben-Gurion, Frondizi May Meet
In Brussels To Seek Compromise
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP)--Argentina and Israel prepared to
begin debate here today on the Adolf Eichmann case despite indica-
tions that the Security Council might either cancel or postpone the
discussions.
The uncertainty was caused mainly by reports last night that
Argentine President Arturo Frondizi and Israel Premier David Ben-
Gurion will meet in Brussels, Belgium, Friday, to seek a compromise
on the issue. The 11-nation coun-

'U' HOSTS:
to Choose
Officials
Of 'State'
By BEATRICE TEODORO
Mock city elections highlight to-
day's activities for the 360 high,
school juniors attending the 20th
annual Wolverine Girls' State.
The nine-day study in state gov-
ernment began yesterday with a
General Assembly at Rackham.
Sponsored by local civic organi-
zations, the girls are duplicating
city, county and state governments
in a practical demonstration of
democratic principles.
The girls are formed into 18
cities with 20 citizens each. This
morning in city party caucuses,
representatives to the county party
committees will be elected. At the
same time, candidates for non-
partisan city offices will be nomi-
nated.
City Elections
Elections for these city offices
will be at 3:45 p.m. today. The
first meetings of the new city gov-
ernments will be held tonight to
choose the mayor and other execu-:
tive officers and to select two city
officers to serve on the County
Board of Supervisors.
The girls will stage mock state
party conventions at 7 p.m. to-
morrow in Angell Hall, Aud. B
and C. Adelaide Hart, vice-chair-
man of the Democratic State Cen-
tral Committee and Mrs. Elly Pe-
terson, a staff member of the Re-
publican State Central Committee
will be the keynote speakers,
During a general assembly at
9:15 a.m. Friday in the Mary
Markley snack bar, Prof. A. D.
Moore of the engineering school
will speak on "Problems in City
Government."
County Innauguration
At another meeting at 7:30 p.m.
that evening, Justice Theodore
Souris of the State Supreme Court
will address the group after ad-
ministering the oath of office to
winners of the mock county elec-
tions.
Saturday speakers will include
Capt. Shirley Curtis of the Michi-
gan State Police, Mrs. Norton H.
Pearl of the Federal Office of Civil
Defense, and State Rep. Russell
R. Strange, Jr. (R-Isabella).
A panel discussion on the con-
stitutional convention will feature
Mrs. William Reifel, a League of
Women Voters officer, arguing for
the convention, and Joseph Parisi,
Jr., executive director of the Mich-
igan Townships Association, argu-
ing against. The discussion will be
held at 1:30 p.m., Tuesday at Mary
Markley.

cil was to hear Argentine Ambas-
sador Mario Amadeo press for a
finding that Israel violated Ar-
gentina's sovereignty by spiriting
the former Nazi official out of
Buenos Aires last month.
Argentina has a resolution call-
ing for reparation, but omitting
any specific demand for the re-
turn of Eichmann, who is await-
ing trial in Israel on charges of
helping exterminate six million
Jews under Hitler.
Israel's Foreign Minister Golda
Meir was expected to present the
Israeli case.
The Argentine delegation con-
tinued to ignore widely published
reports that Amadeo himself had
once been a collaborator wit1i the
Gestapo espionage office.
Both Ben-Gurion and Frondizi
said in separate press conferences
that they thought a meeting be-
tween themselves would be a good
idea.
Ben-Gurion, now in Brussels,
will be in the Low Countries at
least until Friday on a good will
tour. Frondizi arrives in the Bel-
gian capital from Bern, Switzer-
land, late this week.
TheaArgentinekPresident told
newsmen he is prepared to meet
with Ben-Gurion if such a meet-
ing "is useful and necessary for
the discussion of problems con-
cerning our two countries."
"We insist on repatriacion," he
said. "That is how we presented
the case (to the Security Council)
and we will maintain our position.
Ben - Gurion said "Eichmann1
shall remain in Israel until he is
tried and, if condemned, until
after he has purged his condem-
nation."
Asked whether Argentina is glad
to be rid of Eichmann, Frondizi
replied: "We do not need criminals
in our country and we do not
want them there. However, when
someone is removed from our
country - even a criminal -- it
must be with due respect for our
laws and national sovereignty."

The Playbill production is a

CRIPPLING STRIKES:
Left- Wing -*Protersts,
JapOanese Treaty
TOKYO 4,P)-Emperor Hirohito gave the official imperial ap-
proval to the bitterly controversial United States-Japanese Security
Treaty immediately after Prime Minister Nobusuke Kishi's cabinet
gave it final approval, while thousands of left-wing demonstrators
participated in crippling strikes.

Anti-Western Riots
Mis judged'-erter
WASHINGTON W) - The Sen-
ate last night delayed until today
a vote on ratifying the new United
States-Japanese defense treaty.
The decision to put it off came
after hours of debate with only a'
few voices raised in opposition to
some of its provisions.
Secretary of State- Christian A.
Herter, appearing before a Senate
committee yesterday nmorning, had
urged speedy ratification.
Running into a barrage of ques-
tions about the riotous situation
in Japan which caused cancella-
tion of the invitation to President
Eisenhower to visit there, Herter
said "we misjudged" how unre-
lenting the rioting would be.
He said the State Department
didn't expect the rioting to be so
long drawn out or the mobs to be
of such great magnitude.
But Herter replied "no" when
asked if his day-to-day informa-
tion about the riots was poor. He
added that perhaps the informa-
tion was not evaluted properly,
Discusses Budget
Herter appeared before the Ap-
propriations Subcommittee to dis-
cuss his department's annual
budget.
The.Senate debated the treaty
for six and a half hours.
At the request of Majority Lead-
er Lyndon B. Johnson (D-Tex),
the Senate agreed to permit a half
hour's additional debate on the
treaty today.
The time limit on today's debate
will go into effect after the Senate
completes the customary opening
routine transactions.
Although debate on the pact
dragged on for about seven hours
yesterday, there was no evidence
of concerted opposition.
Appears Assured
Ratification appeared assured,
although some senators expressed
doubt about some provisions.
Senate ratification would leave
only two steps to put the treaty
into effect: President Dwight D.
Eisenhower's signature on the
ratification and an exchange of
documents between Japan and the
United States.
The pact has touched off day
after day of left wing rioting in
Tokyo-violence which forced can-
cellation of Eisenhower's visit to
Japan this week.
Provides Protection
The treaty, which replaces one
now in effect, provides Japan with
United States protection under
more favorable conditions for it-
self over at least the next 10 years.
It also will permit United States
bases to remain on Japanese soil.
Sen. J. William Fulbright (D-
Ark.), chairman of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee,
opened the debate on the treaty by
expressing hope that Japan's
democratic institutions "will suf-
fer no permanent damage" for
what he called obstructionist tac-
ties of a fraction of its people.

"We must not hesitate," Nixon said, "to resort to government
action where it provides the best road to progress."
But Nixon said the major part of the job must still be done by

While screaming leftist mobs
clamped a four-hour shutdown on

Says Planes

LONDON (P)-- Soviet Premier
Nikita Khrushchev said yesterday
American spy planes photographed
areas in the Soviet Union where
there are no strategic rocket bases.
Information obtained by these
flights is of no importance for
United States defense, he said.
The Russian leader, speaking
at the Romanian Party Congress
in Bucharest, said:
"We know that two or three
years ago the (Americans) photo-
graphed the areas of the proving
grounds where we conduct experi-
mental rocket launchings. It was
a rocket weapon testing grounds
that they photographed, and not
strategic rocket bases.
"We declare that if other meas-1
ures of espionage are used, they
too will be paralyzed and rebusled.

speech was reported by the official

Nixon said the critics are play-

and that they are interested in
arbitrarily manipulating the
economy.
And as for Khrushchev's boasts
Russia will pass this country ec-

"By any projection that can be
applied, there is no possibility
that the Soviet economy will over-
take our own at any time in this
century."

ZEN AND PSYCHOLOGY:
Converts Learn To Surrender Egos

Leaders Vie
For Belgian'
Congo Posts
LEOPOLDVILLE, Belgian Con-
go (UP) - Patrice Lumumba, a
goateed nationalist spellbinder,
won a major battle yesterday in
the struggle for political control
of the Congo and its new govern-
ment.
With independence from Bel-
gium only nine days away, Lu-
mumba's candidate was elected
Speaker of the Chamber of De-
puties. The new speaker, Joseph
Kasongo, promptly demanded that
Lumumba be summoned to form
the Congo's first native cabinet.
In Brussels the Belgian radio
reported Lumumba was appointed
premier - designate. It said Bel-
gium's administration in the Con-
go called on Lumumba to form a
government after his victory in
the Chamber of Deputies.
Lumumba's forces in the Cham-
ber defeated the candidate of
Joseph Kasavubu, a rotund man
with a reputation as more of a
moderate but no less strong an
ambition to govern the Congo and
its rich natural resources.
The vote was 74-58. One vote
went to an independent. Four
members of the 137-seat house
were absent. The ballots were col-
lected in a tin wastebasket hur-
riedly pressed into service for the
most important vote since the
house first assembled last week.
Thunderous table thumping greet-
ed the result.
The vote represented a public
test of strength between Kasavubu
and Lumumba after they failed in
private to work out an agreement
to share the reins of government.
The Belgians want them to share
responsibility for the important
decisions that will set the pattern

"The process of conversion can be found in most religions, but
the unique factor of Zen conversion is that it contains a methodol-
ogy," Prof. Koji Sato observed yesterday.
The psychology professor at Kyoto University in Japan lectured
on the topic "Zen and Psychology." He drew a basic analogy of a
bucket without a bottom, which loses its contents, but also permits
things to enter from the bottom. Losing the bottom is like losing one's
self-defense or ego, he explained.
A person accomplishes this by learning of himself, which in tuin
means to forget himself. It is a quest for the ultimate reality; thus
Zen is a rational and scientific conversion, as opposed to a mystical
experience.
This method of purification or conversion leads to several im-
provements in the personality, such as vitality, better nervous func-
tions and temperament, control of the will, intellectual progress,
personality integration and peace of mind.
The psychological aspect of Zen involves this process of conver-
