LXXV, No. 34-S ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, JUNE 22, 1965 SEVEN CENTS FOUR PAGES Debate U.S. Role In VietNam War Major Differences Center on Broad Strategy, Basis of Rebel Strength By JEFFREY GOODMAN McGeorge Bundy, special assistant to the President on national security affairs, last night kept his second appointment with critics of his administration's policies in Viet Nam, and the hour's tele- vised debate that resulted brought at least some clarification of the major differences between those supporting and those opposing United States involvement in the conflict in that nation. The deepest cleavages concerned the nature of the war being fought between U.S.-Saigon forces and the National Liberation Front or Continues on Unified Budget Request By JOHN MEREDITH The Council of State College Presidents is proceding with work on a 1966-67 unified budget request-an attempt to jointly deter- mine the budgets of Michigan's state supported schools and present them to the governor and the Legislature in one package backed by all ten institutions. But while all ten schools have given the council data on antici- pated financial needs, a number of perplexing problems and pro- cedural details have not yet been worked out. In fact, it is not even certain that a 1966-67 unified request will be submitted. According to Ira Polley, a representative of the council, the technique for submitting a proposal, if and when it is developed, has not yet been determined. Up to this point, the council has accumulated statistics from the various schools and is in the process of making calculations which will lead to a recommended budget figure for each school. "The figures will be tentative figures for each school to con- sider," Polley explained, adding that procedures for determining these figures have already been developed. He said that each school has submitted estimates for the amount of additional funds needed to pay for larger enrollment, inevitable pay raises, and inflationary increases in operating costs. Officials of each school have been meeting for three months to evaluate and discuss these appraisals, and, hopefully, they will reach some conclusions from which an over-all budget figure can be developed. At the moment, University administrators say, the unified budget is in the experimental stage. But while still harboring some reservations about details and procedures involved, they consider the present effort is a promising step even if, in the end, it does not produce a workable coordinated budget proposal for 1966-67. Michigan educators have been toying with the idea of a unified budget request for some time. It was approved in principle by the college presidents a year ago and, while subject to some controversy, has generally gained increasing support since then. Underlying the proposal is a general dissatisfaction with the haggling and confusion that often surround the schools' approp- riations requests to the Legislature. Proponents of the plan believe that officials of the ten schools can get together each year and work out a mutually acceptable budget figure for each institution. A total figure for a higher education budget would then be submitted to the appropriate state organs-probably the governor, the Legislature, and the new State Board of Education. The schools hopefully would then combine forces to fight for their proposal, eliminating the inter-institutional bickering that has often handicapped the state colleges and universities in getting desired appropriations from the Legislature. However, some educators, including a number of University officials, have foreseen problems that cloud this ideal vision. For one, they point out the striking differences in the Mich- igan's ten state schools: side by side with the three giant uni- versities are several former teachers' colleges still in the process of adjusting to their new status as universities, as well as smaller schools such as. Grand Valley State College. Some educators fear that planning a coordinated budget request for such a varied group would be a very complex task. Moreover, there is some question as to the role that should be played by the state board. While almost all agree that the board, as the constitutionally designated advisory and coordinating body for Michigan higher education, should rightfully scrutinize a unified higher education budget, some educators, including Regent William Cudlip, have expressed concern over the degree to which the board may wish to participate in the future. Indeed, both Cudlip and President Harlan Hatcher expressed "fundamental reservations" on this matter last April. Nevertheless, University officials are cooperating with the presidents' council in its work on the 1966-67 proposal, and generally express cautious optimism about prospects for the future. and what that war means for U U.S. policies with respect to the alleged Asian designs and stra- tegies of China. According to Guy Paulker of the Rand Corporation, speaking in support of the administration's policies, the NFL-the political arm of the Communist guerrillas -is only a facade for a long- standing plan by the Hanoi gov- ernment to establish a "totali- tarian regime" in South Viet Nam by sending carefully indoctrinated and trained agents into the South to aggravate local grievances and thus spawn an anti-Saigon mili- tary force. Peasants' Alienation Countering this position, Prof. John Donoghue of Michigan State University-who spent several years in South Vietnamese vil- lages-claimed that the Viet Cong's strength is mainly a func- tion of southern peasants' aliena- tion from the Saigon government. Rightly or wrongly, he said, these peasants believe the Viet Cong to be their protectors from this government; they feedshouse, clothe and supply the guerrillas. Prof. Edmund Clubb of Columbia University painted the essentially nationalistic character of the Communists in both parts of Viet Nam as potentially the strongest safeguard against Chinese en- croachment on that state. And Prof. Hans Morgenthau of the University of Chicago contended that the U.S. has to recognize that Chinese threats in Asia are fun- damentally political, not military. Therefore, he said, the U.S. can- not contain Communism in Asia with the basically military meas- ures which it used successfully against the Soviet Union in Europe. Chinese Line i mi nmpa iou f am U.S. May Use Funds To Halt Campus Bas By MICHAEL BADAMO The suspension ofP a Stanford University chapter of Sigma Chi fraternity by its national may become a test case in the courts over whether the federal government can withdraw funds from schools which allow affiliates with discriminatory practices. This possibility was indicated last week in a statement by U.S. Commissioner of Education Francis Keppel responding to the Sigma House M1Villion Passc 1s $51.2 McGEORGE BUNDY Union 1Might Seek Added Wage Boost By JUDITH WARREN Co-Editor With the announcement of the $50 fee increase for the residence halls, the University of Michigan Student Employees Union may ask the University administration for an added wage increase, bringing the minimum wage to $1.40 an hour, Barry Bluestone, '66, presi- dent of the UMSEU, announced last night. According to Bluestone, the $50 increase wipes out almost half of the recently granted wage in- crease. With the fee increase, the wage increase, effective this fall, will amount to only 11 or 12 cents an hour, Bluestone explained. Bluestone blasted Vice - Presi- dent for Business and Finance Wilbur K. Pierpont who charged that the fee hike resulted from the wage increase. Bluestone countered by citing figures, prov- ing that the wage increase will cost the dormitory system only $5.60 for each student working in the residence halls. Conference The UMSEU is now planning a state conference on student eco- nomic welfare to be held at the end of September. "The conference will be run, for the most part, by students. Cam- pus leaders will be asked to ad- dress leaders of the labor unions and clergy from across the state," Bluestone said. After a series of seminars, rep- resentatives from the UMSEU will conduct tours of the University campus, showing the guests the conditions in the residence halls, the classrooms and the libraries. Involvement Hopefully, this conference will get private organizations and the labor unions involved in the prob- lems of student economic welfare, Bluestone explained. Other plans include a economic package to be submitted to the University administrators. The package will be based on studies conducted by the UMSEU, Voice political party and other organi- zations on campus. The statement will begin with an explanationtof why students are concerned with the problems of financial discrimination. They will attempt to present the pres- ent University philosophy towards student economic welfare and the traditional means of financing the University. Also included will be a student price index, compiled by the UM- SEU proving that the cost of liv- ing in Ann Arbor is substantially hi,4,r t4han, a4-.. hav ,.n11PraC, And 'I This general view oz a more desirable U.S. strategy was coun- tered by Prof. Zbigniew Brezinski of Columbia University who main- tained that the Chinese threat is more than political. But the U.S. alone has the capacity to im- prove political, economic and so- cial conditions in Southeast Asia, and it can do this only if its can maintain its presence there in the face of military aggression. U.S. military failure, he said, would simply prove China's line- that by fomenting revolutionary movements in the third world it can change the course of history. In another part of the debate, Bundy reaffirmed the administra- tion's intention to "sustain its part" but indicated the U.S. would not object to NLF representatives being included in a Hanoi dele- gation to a conference table. Morgenthau came out support- ing a "holding action" in Viet Nam, saying it was impossible for a great power-which has to guard its prestige - to suddenly admit its policy has been mistaken all along and withdraw from a con- f lict. He was, however, extremely pes- simistic about the "deteroriation" of the military situation in Viet Nam. He indicated - t h o u g h Bundy denied the facts-that gen- eral desertions froma the Saigon forces are 30 per cent and as high as 40 per cent around such cen- ters of fighting as the U.S.'s Da Nang air base.

Burns, who drowned this week- end in a storm while he was sail- boa ting, was regarded as an authority in radiological health, and was the husband of Eunice Burns, the unscusseful Democratic candidate for mayor of Ann Arbor in the last election. A graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Burns re- ceived his master's and doctorate from the University of Wisconsin. Prof. Clarence J. Velz, chairman of the environmental health de- partment, called Burns "one of the nation's foremost authorities" in the field of radiation biology and added that he was "without a doubt one of the finest teachers of public health we have ever had." Velz said Burns was "just at the point of some very important breakthroughs" in his studies in the effects of radiation on living things. He had developed a means of using luminous bacteria to ob- serve and measure the effects of radiation Velz said. He was a member of the Ameri- can Chemical Society, American Society for the Advancement of Science, Radiation Protection So- ciety and Sigma Xi honorary so- ciety. Burns had worxect with MIT's Food Technology Laboratory, the research section of the French food Mission in Washington D. C. and with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Na- tions. The Council meeting was ad- journed in honor of Burns after the passage of the resolution. spended for one year on April 12, gro student, Kenneth M. Wash- ington, to become a pledge. National Case The national fraternity has in- sisted that the Negro pledge had nothing to do with the suspen- sion, but several present and past members of the local have in- sisted that racial discrimination is the reason. The national contends that "the (Stanford) chapter was suspended for a period of one year pursuant to the bylaws of the fraternity for but one reason, a disregard of and an active opposition to ad- herence to rituals." Past chapter president Frank Olrich of Auburn, Calif., and Pat Forster a member of the suspend- ed chapter issued a statement of their own immediately after the national fraternity announced the suspension would continue. "We have felt in the past and always will feel that, in our opin- ion, the suspension was based on the discrimination question," 01- rich and Foster said. Steps They added that they felt steps were being taken to eliminate ra- cial barriers in the organization, and the the problem could be re- solved within the fraternity. Keppel indicated that the fed- erai government can in fact sus- pend funds for racial discrimina- tion under the provisions of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare's code concerning dis- crimination. The code states in part: "An in- stitution of higher education which applies for any federal fi- nancial assistance of any kind must agree that it will make no distinction on the ground of race, color, or national origin in the admission practices or any other practices of the institution re- lating to the treatment of stu- dents ... "Other practices ... include the affording to students of oppor- tunity to participate in any edu- cational, research, cultural, ath- letic, recreational, social or other program or activity . . . It is not clear where or when the case will be decided in the courts, but Keppel's prediction may be the start in allowing the federal government to intervene in dis- crimination questions on college campuses. REP. EINAR EARLANDSEN GOV. GEORGE ROMNEY STRONGER PROPOSAL: ' May Ask Fair Housing SPEAKER JOSE By BRUCE WASSERSTEIN An ordinance banning discrim- ination in any form of Ann Arbor housing will be introduced to the city council in the near future, council member Leroy Cappeart (D) revealed last night. Observing that Circuit Judge James Breakey's upholding of the constitutionality of Ann Arbor's Fair Housing Ordinance establish- es a precedent for local municipal involvement in preventing dis- crimination, Cappeart said he hopes for bipartisan support for his proposals. The Fair Housing Ordinance as it now stands only covers a frac- tion of Ann Arbor apartments, Cappeartremarked,becauseit applies only to owners who own five or more buildings. Cappeart says that he wants "total cover- age." The Democratic councilman in- dicated that he did not bring up his proposal sooner because of the controversy surrounding Ann Ar- bor's original Fair Housing Ordi- nance. Attorney General Frank Kelley had ruled initially that the law overstepped constitutional limits. Believing that "the state has complete power to enforce civil rights in housing," Kelley main- tained that "there is no authority for a city to adopt an ordinance exercising this power." Thus, according to Cappeart, city council members were reluc- tant to get involved in passing stronger laws against discrimina- tion in housing if the constitu- tionality of a milder version was in question. Last week, however, Breakey overruled Kelley's decision. that "the mere f has made some not prohibit mu enacting additio Kelley hasr whether he will decision.
