Ike Sets Record Straight- 'Nixon'sConeInaube By The Associated Press Senator John F. Kennedy at- tacked Vice President Richard M. Nixon's foreign policy yesterday while Nixon was blasting the Democratic Congress. Nixon claimed that Kennedy had led Congress to failure and was campaigning with "impracti- cal schemes" and an extreme plat- form. Kennedy charged that the Re- publican administration had been "hyptonized" by Nikita Khrush- chev and had dashed American hopes for an end to the cold war. Kennedy delivered a major for- eign policy address in Syracuse over a statewide television net- work, as he ended two days of stumping upstate New York in a determined bid for electoral votes. The Democratic nominee for president cited six fronts of the Cold War where crises have de- veloped in the year that has pass- ed since the meeting of President Dwight D. Eisenhower and Pre- mier Khrushchev at Camp David. "Each of the areas had been visited by Mr. Richard Nixon," Kennedy said. Crises Averted If Vice President Nixon, his GOP presidential rival, had employed the experience of which he now boasts, Kennedy implied, the crises in Cuba, Ghana, Japan, Laos, Poland and India might have been averted. "Mr. Khrushchev has not been impressed, deterred or confined in his efforts to build a Communist empire " Nixon pulled off the political gloves in his Democratic oppon- ent's hometown and said "a mon- umental failure is no recommenda tion for success." The Republican candidate for the White House pinned the fail- ure charge to the performance a month ago of what he called the "Kennedy Congress," in his Bos- ton speech. Hardest Blast The setting for perhaps the hardest blast the Vice President has fired to Kennedy so far was a Republican rally at the Boston Armory, tied by television to 36 similar rallies in 24 states. The Vice President said, "The opposition has got to find fault so they flail away at the idea that peaceful and prospering America has stood still these past eight years. "'That is so wild a distortion that the American people, will, of course they should, pass it by. John Galbraith To Cornmient On Candidates Prof. John K. Galbraith of Har- vard University, economic advisor to Sen. John F. Kennedy, the Democratic presidential nominee, will address the Ann Arbor Busi- ness and Professional Society at 8:30 p.m. tonight at Ann Arbor High School. The topic of his speech will be "Kennedy or Nixon: Is there a difference?" Students Organize As Party By RUTH EVENHUIS About 100 students attended the first mass meeting of the proposed campus political party last night. The party was organized into temporary committees under the leadership of David Giltrow, '61. Sharon Jeffrey, '63, will head the committee on elections which will concentrate its efforts on selecting and supporting candi- dates for positions on the Student Government Council. An education committee which will attempt to clarify issues and arrange for their discussion will be led by Brian Glick, '62. A campus communications com- mittee, headed by Judith Yesner, Grad., will deal primarily with publicity and inter-campus com- munication. Jack Ladinsky, Grad., is in charge of a committee on operations designed to implement the platform. Appoint Hartwig A research committee, headed by Jean Hartwig, '61, will provide in- formation to the committees and candidates of Council members. Giltrow opened the meeting with a request that the party not be determine by consensus what is the party is "striving for a broad base for issue-orientated action," and for candidates elected on the the basis of ability and individual stands on issues. Daily Editor Thomas Hayden, '61, told the group that "if the party is to be dynamic it must subject to labels. He stressed that best for the campus, and imple- ment such a program." He recognized that polarization into conflicting parties might oc- cur, but hoped that divisions would be based on opposing views rather than on labels or social group membership. Student Involvement Discussing the need for student involvement, Hayden warned that "college is the arena in which attitudes are learned and con- firmed." Social scientists say that restricted output in school pre- sages the same performance in adult life. Hayden called for self-direction and responsibility as students. "In planning significant action," he continued, "one must decide whether the political party is a viable form." Hayden sees a two-fold vacuum of awareness and experience for the party to fill. "Students must see themselves as the legitimate holders of the right to act" "The over-riding issue of this generation," he continued, "is that few students are aware of the issues and many do not care about them. He referred to a political party as a means to direct interaction with the social order. According to Hayden, SOC has considerable power and potential; a party might serve to focus re- newed student interest in the Council. The party has not reached a decision regarding application for SGC recognition. --AP wirephote UNITED NATIONS - Prime Minister Harold Macmillan of Great Britain spoke yesterday to the United Nations General Assembly.

Eisenhower said last night Vice-President Richard M. Nixon's "counsel has been invaluable to me," and that Nixon is better prepared for the Presidency than anyone he knows. Eisenhower said he wanted to "set the record straight" as to allegations he had heard "that the Vice-President has contributed little to the affairs of government over these last seven and a half successful years." Some of these allegations, used against the Republican presi- .Ydential candidate on the campaign circuits, stemmed from an off the it cuff reply Eisenhower gave several weeks ago to a newsman's request that he name a specific major de- YS"tcision to which Nixon had con- fISI lfIT tributed.

UNITED NATIONS UP) - Brit-" ain's Prime Minister Harold Mac- millan presented the United Na- tions yesterday with a cooly phrased assessment of key world issues, and sent Nikita S. Khrush- chev into four furious outbursts of heckling shouts and table-thump- ing protest. For delegates to the 98-nation General Assembly, it was the most astonishing performance in the history of the world organiza- tion. Delegates were obviously shocked. But hours after the Macmillan speech, Khrushchev still exhibited boiling anger and indignantly de- nounced the Briton's address, in a sidewalk interview, as reminis- cent of Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain's attitude at Munich in advance of World War II two decades ago, Titan Misses In U.S. ry At New Mark CAPE CANAVERAL (P) -- The Air Force attempted to launch a Titan missile on a record 10,000- mile flight yesterday, but the big rocket fell 4,000 miles shortbe- cause of premature engine shut- down. If the test had been successful, it would have been the longest surface-to-surface missile flight on record, surpassing the 9,000- mile mark registered by two Unit- ed States Atlases. Russia has re- ported hitting targets up to 8,000 miles away with- rockets fired in- to the central Pacific. This was the second time with- in a week that the Soviet Pre- mier had upset the dignified de- corum of the General Assembly. He insisted Macmillan's speech was "absolutely not" constructive. Leaders Meet Macmillan and Khrushchev later had a two hours and nine minutes meeting at Soviet UN headquarters. Among other things, they talked about disarmament, Berlin and Khrushchev's proposal to overhaul the UN structure, but apparently neither led nor budged an inch from his stated views. Never before had a UN General Assembly seen such a perform- ance as Khrushchev's. It was the Soviet premier's second assault upon the Assembly's decorum within a week, and some delegates said they were appalled. Pauper, Statesman Macmillan, currently the rank- ing western statesman at the 98- nation Assembly session, was making a major pronouncement for the West, appealing for a reasoned, three-stage approach to the "key problem" of disarma- 'ment. With clipped British under- statement, Macmillan told the Assembly Communist slogans were outworn and obsolete and were distorting the world's most perilous See Related Story, Page 3 issues. At the same time the Brit- ish leader had glowing praise for Eisenhower's speech last week presenting the United States pro- posals and point of view. As Macmillan progressed, the Soviet leader seemed to get stead- ily more angry. The Communist bloc, led by Khrushchev, interrupted noisily and dramatically three separate times. The first interruption came whensMacmillan rejected a Soviet proposal to replace UN Secretary- General Dag Hammarskjold with a three-man, veto-wielding execu- tive. Macmillan praised Ham- marskjold's handling of the UN peace machinery in Africa's tur- bulent Congo. Suddenly Khrushchev, at first smiling sardonically and then quickly shifting to an angry scowl, began thumping on his ta- ble. Nameile WMU Head LANSING (P)-James W. Miller, former state controller and now secretary of Michigan State Uni- versity, has been named president of Western, Michigan University, it was announced yesterday. Miller's appointment broke a long deadlock on the State Board of Education over a successor to Dr. Paul V. Sangren who retired from the Kalamazoo institution presidency last July 1. Miller will assume the $25,000- a-year post on Jan. 1. Reins of the school temporarily are in the hands of Dr. Gerald Osborn, 57, dean of liberal arts and sciences. Announcement of the selection was made by Chairman Stephen S. Nisbet after a special meeting of the board. Nisbet said the vote was unanimous. WASHINGTON AM-The Unit- ed States announced last night that it is closing down its big Nicaro nickel processing plant in Cuba. The action came some hours after announcement that Ame i- can residents in Cuba have beet advised to send home their wives and children. These developments dramatized the rapid worsening of relations between Washington and the re- gime of pro-Communist Prime Minister Fidel Castro. It was learned also that the United States is planning to im- pose new controls on exports to Cuba, probably covering some in- dustrial machinery and supplies. From Havana, meanwhile, came word the Castro.government in a new slap at the United States had refused to accept a United States note protesting nationalization of American banks in Cuba. Ambas- sador Philip Bonsal was unable to deliver the protest to the for- eign ministry in Havana. Employed Cubans The $110 million, Nicaro nickel plant in Oriente 'Province em- ployed or contributed to the em- ployment of 2,800 Cubans. The plant was built in 1942-43 to pro- vide nickel, a strategically im- portant metal, for United States operations in World War II. It also performed the same function in the Korean conflict. It now has a capacity of 5 million pounds per year. Suspen- sion of operation, effective almost immediately, appears to be a blow to the Cuban economy to which Nicaro has contributed $80 mil- lion over 18 years in local wages and purchases. A formal announcement by the State Department, however, blam- ed the closing on "harassment" by the Castro regime and on the imminent imposition of "confis- catory" Cuban taxes. The United States had negoti- ated with the Cubans in a series of three meetings since June 28 to sell the plant to Cuba. Castro representatives offered the "ri- diculously low" price of $5,386,000. To Breakdown That offer brought the negoti ations to a breakdown and Cuba then gave the United States "an ultimatum" that after next Sat- urday~ Oct. 1, the Cuban taxes would either be paid on the nick- el or no nickel would be shipped., The United States said it had offered to pay "a reasonable tax" but Cuba rejected that offer. The action involving American dependentscame earlier inthe day. A State Department press offi- cer, Francis W. Tully, said that the advisory warning appliesonly to dependents of United States citizens, such as businessmen, liv- ing in Cuba. A press dispatch from Havana said the embassy there has also been quietly advising all other American residents to leave if they possibly can. Tully said that two weeks or more ago there were an estimat- ed 4,500 nonofficial United States citizens in Cuba. This means that at least 500 Americans have left in the last two to three weeks. Petitions Out For Council Membership Petitioning opens today for prospective candidates for mem- bership on Student Government Council. It will close 5 p.m., Oct. 28, Dick G'sell, '62, election director for the Council, said. Students interested in running for seats may secure petitions in room 3011 of the SAB where ad- ditional information is also avail- "This last method requires that truths be exhibited in a hidden way," Father Berrigan continued. "The artist must portray mysteries which allude expression. Finished Works "The finished work of art must Invite the beholder but at the same time withhold something. It must veil mystery and simultan- eously 'reveal it." Father Berrigan was quick to distinguish between two compet- ing forms of modern sacred art: the "traditional" versus the "con- ventional." The latter form does not inves- tigate mysteries, but "merely tries to capture the emotional state of a given age. It is a nursery of art, childish, and attempts to assure man that all is well and serene. Free Play "Free play of symbol is suffo- cated; it is stereotyped and un- realistic to the mystery which should be presented." Father Berrigan defined this "mystery" as the "intention of God revealing itself through his- tory; the coming of Jesus and His continued existence among man- kind." Traditional art, conversely, seeks out these mysteries from the past and brings them to bear on the! present. It does not avoid reality; it presents mysteries with the de- mands and sacrifices which they realistically accompanv. AT POLITICAL SCIENCE ROUNDTABLE: Experts Assess Ideology, Strategy for Election By MICHAEL BURNS Four University political scien- tists discussed and sometimes de- bated the current political race with regard to ideology, strategy and pressure groups at a round- table forum last night. Although most of the time was devoted to analyzing the presiden- tial contest, the political situation in Michigan was also the subject of varying opinion. Party Ideology Michigan government is hamp- ered by the "sharp ideological distinction" between the two par- ties, Norman Thomas warned. There is not a "complete polarity" of parties but they do represent opposite ends of the spectrum, because the legislators do repre- sent opposite ends of the spectrum, because the legislators are led by men of clearly differing ideologies. "I am disturbed by this. Do we want this?" Thomas asked. The leadership of the ultra- conservative Republicans in the Senate and the control of the Detroit AFL-CIO and UAW labor unions of Democratic elements have kept agreement from being reached on legislation, he said. There has been no compromise and there is not much chance of a change in the situation in this campaign. "Accomodation is im- possible" with the present atti- tudes. Thomas found the national campaign marked by "a blurred distinction of ideology between parties". Kennedy appears to be the more ideological candidate, influenced greatly by Harvard economist John Kenneth Gal- braith. The lack of ideological differ- ence between the parties is due to the cultural homogeneity of the country, he explained. Prof. John White answered some of Thomas's contentions about state politics, by blaming the governmental institutions rather than the parties for the legislative impasse in Lansing. Pressure Groups Michigan would probably be found in the top three of states dominated by pressure groups, but at the same time the state pro- bably ranks as one of the most effective in party organization. He denied that Michigan politi- cians are controlled by the whims of General Motors and other cor- porations on the one hand, and not influenced by heavy industry and organized labor, he said. Both parties have built up strong "grass roots" support of the organiza- tions. Prof. White also predicted that the constitutional question would pass on the November ballot in Wayne County, despite the ve- hement opposition by powerful union leaders, such as AFL-CIO president Gus Scholle. Ideology's Role Karl Lamb, in outlining ideolo- gy's role in the election, explain- ed that it is an accepted opinion that American parties should not be polarized in their beliefs. Thus the situation today which finds the parties so identical is not cause for grave concern. The issues dividing American parties have never been ones of widely differing economic policies, he said, and even the tariff and the New Deal found some agree- ment in principle within the op- posing party. Lamb said that he agreed with .-Al Wirephoto WIFE-Mrs. Pat Nixon has been campaigning with her hus- band.
