FacultyAn By BARBARA SEYFRIED Twelve days ago a revolt broke out in the Dominican Republic, but according to three University observers, the causes of the revolt have roots going back several years. The insurgent forces, a left wing group, started the revolt in an attempt to bring former President Juan D. Bosch back into power. Bosch had been overthrown by a miiltary junta in 1963, only eight months after his election. Prof. Martin Needler of the political science department ex- plained recently that Bosch was overthrown by the military junta for two sets of reasons. 'First, Bosch lacked political skills," Needler said. He was un- able to conciliate opposing forces and refused to cqmpromise. In addition, "The people of the Dominican Republic had also had very limited experience with democracy," he said. Second Set The second set of reasons is also an after-effect of the Tru- jillo regime. Trujillo had allowed members of the military as well as businessmen whb did business with the government numerous special privileges. "In other words there had been a great deal of graft," Needler explained, and the military wanted more than it was getting under Bosch. Robert Wells, instructor in political science, commented that one reason for the coups and countercoups and failure of democracy alyzes Causes, of Dominican Revolt in the Dominican Republic has been that Rafael Trujillo, dictator of the republic for decades, left behind a void after hisassassina- tion in 1960 and that the recent fast changes from dictatorship to rudimentary democracy to oligarchy have left the people of the country for the most part totally uneducated as to the nature of democratic institutions. Bosch, from the administrative point of view was an excellent president, Needler said. "He was honest, effecient, and balanced the budget. The objectives of his policies were just what was needed by the republic." However, since he was honest he stopped the graft. This displeased the military powers. In addition to the military, many conservative businessmen were displeased with Bosch's social policies and many politicians wanted to return themselves to power, he said. This led to a military coup in 1963 and the end of the re- public's first democratic government. The power was left in the hands of the military. As long as the government did not interfere with the military, Needler explained, military officials were con- tent to let the government go its own way. Governing Junta After the military took power, they established a governing junta of civilians. Elections were scheduled for September, 1965. Needler explained that in the face of the coming election Bosch's party, the Dominican Revolutionary Party (PRD), felt that if it did not stage some form of a "comeback" through force it would be through as a political influence. For this reason the PRD started the revolt. Prof. Eric Wolf of the anthropology department, on the other hand, maintained that the revolution is a personal attempt by Bosch to stage a comeback with the aid of several junior military officers. Needler went on to speculate on what has happened since the PRD started the revolt. He hypothesized that "extreme leftists tried to turn the revolt in an anti-American direction." This they could do, Needler explained, by turning the revolt against the U.S. or by forcing the U.S. to intervene. Provoking U.S. Needler said' that the extreme leftist elements attempted to provoke the U.S. by terrorizing U.S. citizens. He emphasized that it was not done by the PRD and that the provocations' purpose, if they had a purpose, may have been to bring on U.S. intervention. And the administration responded to the provocation, Needler said. Wolf pointed out that South American history is full of in- stances of U.S. intervention. While it is the practice of tle U.S. to send in troops where American lives are threatened, Wolf explained, cries of anguish are already reverberating across Latin America. He explained that this has set back North American and Latin American relations. Wells said that while many of these nations were very voci- ferous in their protest that many of them were privately very content with U.S. action. 'Johnson Justified' Wells asserted that Johnson was very definitely justified in his act. He said that Johnson was merely adding a corollary to the Truman doctrine of containment. Wells said the revolution shows a need for some multilateral force representing the Organization of American States for inter- vention when it is necessary. He said that this was probably not the last time that an event of this nature would take place. One condition that Wells did emphasize on the U.S. interven- tion was that the U.S. should get out as fast as was feasibly pos- sible. He suggested the possibility of a multilateral force composed of the member nations of the OAS. Critical of Johnson Needler, on the other hand, was extremely critical of John- son's action. He explained that if the U.S. were to intervene it should have done so under the "multilateral umbrella" of OAS approval. On the future of the Dominican Republic, Wolf said that it would probably lie in the hands of the miiltary. He felt this was indicated by the fact that the new provisional president, elected by the rebels, was a military officer. The rebels are fighting a military junta. Thus whichever side wins, the government will still be under military control.

LXXV, No. 2-S ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, MAY 6, 1965 SEVEN CENTS FOUR PAGES' Party Leaders Back Board Flint Proposal By W. REXFORD BENOIT The State Board of Education received a boost yesterday when both Gov. Romney and Demorcatic State Chairman Zolton Ferency supported its recommendation to make the University's Flint Branch an autonomous institution. The governor attended yesterday's board meeting for a 30- minute briefing, and agreed with its position but added that "support Is needed from, the Flint community for that position." Then the question was-what did Romney mean? Would the people of Flint be given a voice Senator Hits Left, Image By ROBERT MOORE Special To The Daily W 4SHINGTON - The liberal and radical elements on American campuses were chided last week when a Wyoming senator said that all the outcry over U.S. policies gives a distorted picture of the true nature of American universi- ties. Sen. Gale McGee (D-Wyo) ap- pealed to conservatives to make themselves heard over the protests on campus radicals ,and said he was addressing "the currently si- lent segment of our campuses who support the President or who may agree with the fundamental ten- ets implicit in a firm posture in Asia." He said that demonstrations such' as the March on Washing- ton give the "false impression" that the students, professors and intellectuals of the U.S. "are all automatically pacifists or trouble- makers. McGee, however, while critical I of the content of the Viet Nam protests defended and encouraged the academic community's right to comment on government policies. "Protests should remain a hall- mark of academia," McGee de- clared. The only trouble with re- cent protests, he said, is that the wrong people have been protest- ing -liberals and radicals have been noisy, while conservatives- who, he asserted, are in the ma- jority-have remained silent. McGee said that part of the reason for "the liberal thinking found on the part of some aca- demicians i that they cling to outmoded facts. in the Flint controversy before fthe Legislature's final decision (a decision that will be binding, since both the University and the board have agreed as much)? Apparently not, according to Romney's chief education aide Charles Orlebecke. What Romney really meant was that the people of Flint should be "informed" of all the factors leading to the board's decision to recommend autonomy for Flint, Orlebecke said last night. No Hearing When asked if it was possible that the governor might call for a public hearing on Flint before the Legislature's decision, Orle- beckereplied, "I think not." Board members reported to Romney yesterday that they would seek legislative' approval in the current session for establishment of the separate four-year college at Flint. Board Chairman Thomas Bren- nan complained that he had not as yet received even an acknowl- edgement from the University to a telegram stating the board's position. Actually, University President Harlan Hatcher has already re- plied to the telegram-but during his testimony before the Senate Appropriations Committee on April 28, and not as a direct reply to the Board of Education. President Hatcher stated at the time that the University would be willing to submit the question of Flint's autonomy to the Legisla- ture. The Question Now the question is who-the University or the board-can win the Legislature over to its point of view. Orlebecke said a meeting will be held next Monday before the even- ing session of the Legislature to discuss strategy for winning Flint's autonomy. It will include influen- tial Democrats in the House, mem- bers of the board and Ferency. Senate Bill Can Give 'U' $1.5Million The University could benefit by approximately $1.5 million annu- ally if the Senate votes approvalI for an appropriations bill passed1 by the House, Rep. Weston E. Vivian (D-Mich) said yesterday. Vivian referred to passage of a Health, Education and Welfare 'Department bill which lifts the present 20 per cent limitation on the extent to which the govern- . ment can reimburse a university or other institution for overhead costs on a research contract. "In the case of the University, this means the reimbursement will be raised from 20 per cent to about, 35 per cent," Vivian said. No Comment Vice-President for Business and Finance Wilbur K. Pierpont had no comment last night on the bill's passage through the House, and Vice-President for Research Prof. i A. Geoffrey Norman was unavail- able for comment. Actually, the exact amount of the reimbursement will be deter- mined by the Bureau of the Budget, but the bill in its present form permits reimbursement to within three to five per cent of actual costs. "Although the bill now pertains only to HEW, I'm sure the move will be extended to include other research work, such as for de- fense," Vivian said. "I discussed the matter with' Appropriations Committee mem- bers before the bill came to the floor, and I am extremely pleased that the wording permitting reim- bursement so close to actual costs stayed in the bill," Vivian said. Vivian said he had been advised that the less said about the move; to take the lid off the research overhead cost reimbursement the better. Slipped Through "Apparently it j u s t slipped through," he said. "I'm sure few members realized it was in the bill." The University, which currently expends about one-third of its an- nual operating funds for research, and other large universities have' been pressing for years to have the limitation removed. For a long time, 15 per cent ofl the total federal grant was the maximum reimbursement allowed. Dems Oppose U.S.* Policy in Viet Nam ' By ADA JO SOKOLOV The Ann Arbor City Democratic Party adopted a resolution opposing American policies in Viet Nam at a Tuesday meeting, but the Washtenaw County Democratic chairman asserted last night that the proposal passed was not representative of local Democratic feeling. George W. Salade charged that "the action of the Democratic group which passed the proposal Tuesday does not represent the opinions of the majority of Democrats in either Ann Arbor or Wash- tenaw County." There were substantial forces at the Tuesday meeting opposing the resolution against U.S. policy. Neil Staebler, former Michigan ---------_,gubernatorial candidate and a By The Associated Press SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic-Shortly after the sign- ing of an expanded cease-fire agreement between the two fac- tions in the Dominican civil war, new outbreaks of conflict began yesterday,' wounding four U.S. troops. And U.S. officials released more information alleging domination of rebel troops by Communist or pro- Castro leaders. There were unconfirmed reports that at least four American sol- diers were captured by the rebels in clashes after the insurgents and the rival military junta signed a document expanding and ratify- ing the cease-fire they agreed on last week. U.S. Casualties The latest casualties brought tol 56 the number of U.S. battle wounded. Seven Americans have died since President Lyndon B. Johnson ordered U.S. forces into Santo Domingo a week ago to protect U.S. lives and prevent a Communist takeover. The cease-fire agreement has the immediate aim of ending hos- tilities between the rival Domini- cans until a political settlement can be reached on the issues that caused bloody civil war to brea out 12 days ago. It does not affect U.S. military positione. Communist Inclination A U.S. government official told a news briefing that Cal. Francisco Caamano Deno, sworn in Tuesdayj as provisional president by the rebel movement, is not himself a Communist but is "moving closer Latin Truce Deteriorates; U.S. Sees Communist Ties Nurses Get HEW Funds The University received four grants recently totalling $129,410, three of them from the U.S. De- partment of Health, Education and Welfare and one from the Carnegie Corporation of New York. The $24,000 Carnegie grant is directed toward scholarships for a University leadership develop- ment program in vocational edu- cation now directed by Prof. Ralph Wenrich of the School of Educa- tion. CORRECTION Yesterday's Daily incorrectly reported that the 206 women staying in residence halls dur- ing term 1HA will be housed in Prescott House. East Quad- rangle. They will in fact be in West Couzens. The Carnegie grant will provide scholarships for approximately 20 participants in an eight-week summer workshop and subsequent internships. The three government grants are intended to aid University nursing programs. One, of $86,910, will provide for a professional nurse traineeship program leading to a master's degree. It will be administered by Dean Rhoda R. Russell of the School of Nursing. Two others, of $9,500 and $9,000, will set up training institutes on part-time public health nursing for industry and on nursing serv- ices in medical care programs. member of the Democratic na- tional committee, backed a coun- ter proposal in favor of the John- son administration. Lively Debate T h e anti - Johnson resolution passed by a vote of 106 to 46 fol- lowing a "lively debate," Sallade commented. Sallade added that . "I support the Democratic Administration in its activities in Viet Nam and feel that it is in tune with the needs of the times." The main address in opposition to present Viet Nam policies was delivered by Prof. Arnold S. Kauf- man of the department of philoso- phy. The pro-Johnson resolution was supported by Turner Shelton, special assistant to the assistant secretary of state for public af- fairs, who came to Ann Arbor from Washington expressly to ad- dress the meeting. The resolution adopted at the meeting said that the Democrats, "in a special meeting called ex- pressly for considering a resolu- tion on our policy on Viet Nam" urged President Lyndon B. John- son "to order the cessation of bombing raids on Viet Nam" and to press for a cease-fire. Ask Rebels Included The resolution stipulated that negotiations should include both the governments of North Viet Nam and the National Liberation Front rebels. It condemned the use of "in- human weapons" - such as nap- alm and gas-in Viet Nam, and urged the President to cut off any deliveries of such weapons to Vietnamese forces. Outlining its proposal for nego- tiations, the resolution said that "in particular any negotiated set- tlement should contain personal guarantees of the ,personal safety of former combatants and offi- cials." Revolt in Santo Domingo Greets Surprised Jazzren By ARTHUR MARKS It all came as rather a surprise to the 19-man University of Mich- igan Jazz Band touring South America. The tour scheduled an April 20th appearance for them in Haiti, but political trouble was expected there so the group was detoured to "the more peaceful Dominican Republic." Until Saturday all was peace- ful; then the radio announced that a coup had taken place. Jazzmen Jeffrey Joseph, '67, and Carl Passal, '68, said that the peo- ple in their hotel rejoiced since unemployment and poverty reign- ed in the country. Gunfire continued throughout the night. The band was sched- uled to leave Sunday morning, but when they woke it was explained. that the way to the airport was barred by fighting. The band's hotel soon ran out of food and the bandsmen were transferred to a hotel further out of town. Members saw planes bombing the royal palace anA la- ter destroying an army depot about a mile from the hotel. That evening it was announced that everyone had to be ready to leave the country the next day. One piece of baggage was allotted per person-for the musicians this meant only their musical instru- ments as the State Department Cultural Presentation Program was yet incomplete. All rose the next morning at 4:30 a.m. At about 9 a.m. a dozen rebel troops shouldered their way through the hundreds of Ameri- cans standing on the front lawn, firing at the upper floors of the hotel. Chaos ensued as everyone ran for cover. After the shooting stopped, troops motioned the crowd inside, where there was again a short exchange of fire. No one was hurt. Later, a caravan of trucks and buses mover the Americans to a nearby naval port where several American ships were waiting. "We never felt so patriotic as when he saw the American flag flying from the decks of those ships and the word 'Marines' sten- ciled on the sides of the heli- copters," Joseph and Passal agreed. They then took a ship to San Juan and from there a plane to Jamaica where they gave their next performance. to the Communists." The official said the "evaluatior as of today is that the rebel movement is Communist con- trolled." He added that the U.S. govern- ment has evidence that Caamano met Tuesday with members of three Communist organizations. 58 Listed Other U.S. government sources released a list of 58 important figures in the rebellion who had Communist connections. The list of 58 included 18 per- sons said to be known or reliably reported to have been trained in subversive and guerrilla tactics by the Cuban intelligence service or other similar Cuban organizations. The other 40 were named as persons reliably identified over the past few years as Communists and Castroite subversives. Some were said to have been in Russia, Czechoslavakia or Com- munist China during their careers. Communist Leader One Dominican Communist leader was said to have played a key role in the tactical direction of the rebel forces following the out- break of the revolution April 24. And in other U.S.-Dominican developments today: -The Defense Department an- nounced there are now 19,363 U.S. troops in the Dominican Republic, 12,439 Army men and 6,924 Ma- rines. The total is 5,363 more than the last officially announced fig- ure. -A State Department spokes- man, commenting on the reported installation of Deno as President of the Dominican Republic, said the United States still believes "there is no effective government at the present time." Late developments last night in- dicate that a more effective set- tlement might be reached soon. A compromise plan for an inter- American military force in the Dominican Republic was agreed on yesterday and appeared likely of adoption by a special inter- American conference meeting last night. One of the major changes spe- cifies the force would not repre- sent one country nor a group of countries but the Organization of American States. l M FESTIVAL: .

Leontyne Price, famed Metropolitan Opera soprano and Sviato- slav Richter, internationally recognized pianist, will highlight the Festavil under the leadership of Eugene Ormandy and the Philadel- phia Symphony Orchestra. For the last 20 years Ormandy has led the famed Philadelphia ensemble. Under his direction it has moved along an upward road to a position of preeminence. Newsweek magazine has hailed him as "the top man of the top orchestra."I Through his direction of the Orchestra on its many tours, the dynamic Ormandy has demonstrated to a world-wide audience the Maureen Forrester, and Murray Diokie. On Friday Anshel Brusilov and Joseph de Pasquale will perform violin and viola solos. The choral union, composed of students, faculty and townspeople is led by Lester McCoy. It is one of the oldest choral organizations in the United States. The Youth Chorus consists of 50 fifth and sixth graders from Ann Arbor public schools. Jancie Harsanyi, who performed at the World's Fair, is chairman of the voice department at Westminster Choir College. Murray Dickie, leading tenor of the Metropolitan Opera and the Vienna State Opera has sung roles and recitals with practically every major opera company in the world. Maureen Forrester, a lieder singer, has toured much of Canada and the United States. Violoncello The third concert on Saturday afternoon features Leonard Rose Head Series Siepi received his musical training at Milan, Italy. During the war, he fled to Switzerland. In 1946 he returned to Milan to appear in La Scala. In 1951 he appeared in Verdi's "Requiem" for Toscanini. Siepi sang King Philip in "Don Carlo" in 1950. Siepi, who usually sings brooding, tragic roles, is also noted for his acting ability. Thus, despite his 30 years, he can give the illusion of age and dignity. The final concert on Sunday night features Soviet pianist, Sviatoslav Richter, who will perform a concerto by Greig. Eugene Ormandy will appear for the third time in this May Festival and conduct the Philadelphia Orchestra in several selections. Only recently has Richter performed in the West. He has appeared previously in America in New Yorks Carneigie Hall, in 1960. He is making his debut in Ann Arbor.
