Nixon Ahead' Of Kennedy, White Says BY JOHN ROBERTS The head of the Citizens for Kennedy and Johnson drive ad- mitted last night that Sen. John F. Kennedy is running a little be- hind vice-president Richard M. Nixon. Byron- White, said, however, the trends are favorable. Bolstering this swing to Ken- nedy will be the impact of the 'television debates. the first of which White' called "a great event, in which Kennedy had a clear edge." "If the election were held today, it would be decided by the inde- pendent vote," Byron White said. Have Trouble He explained that although the Democratic party has a 5-3 edge in registration, "We Democrats have always had trouble turning out the voters." For this reason, the principle objectives of his organization in- clude encouragement of a large vote, as well as a concentrated appeal to liberal Republicans and Independents. A former All-American and Detroit Lions-football star, "Whiz- zer" White was in town last night 'to assist in establishing an Ann Arbor branch of the Citizens for Kennedy. John Devine will head the local chapter. White told a press conference that his organization was set up by Kennedy himself and is in- dependently financed. Supplements Committee' Its work supplements that of the Democratic National Committee. Headquartered in Washington, the Citizens for Kennedy executive staff also includes the former campaign manager of California Glov. Edmund G. Brown and a co-owner of the "Washington post." White said that the response In Aznt Arbor had been "excellent", as it has everywhere." He added that he did not know if Kennedy himself would make an appear- ance here, although it is known that he plans at least one. more trip to the state. In response to a question noting the apparent inconsistency of the' liberal Democratic platform and the choice of Sen. Lyndon John- son as Kennedy's running mate, White pointed out that "Johnson has endorsed the platform and says he will support it. He has the! backing of many leading Michigan Negroes." However, White said that he does not know if Kennedy and Johnson will ever join forces and campaign together. He added that both are hitting the country hard, and that he believed there was "less chance than in the past" that the South would break up as the tradttional Democratic stronghold. SGC Meeting To Consider 'Liquor Sales Student Government Council will consider a motion to endorse sale of liquor by the glass in Ann Williams Defends, KennedyPosition Winehell House Hears Governor Stress Need for Strong America Gov. G. Mennen Williams, on campus yesterday afternoon for the reception of Mrs. Peter Lawford, took time out to speak to the residents of Winchell House, West Quadrangle. The Governor said he was glad to see so many young people taking an active interest in politics. "When I went to school," he said, "even with the Roosevelt campaigns, the students didn't get very excited about the Campaigning. b 'U'Studies Year Abroad By RICHARD OSTLING There is some chance a U ni- versity junior-year-abroad pro- gram could begin by the fall of 1961, Associate Dean of the liter- ary college James Robertson says. The report of the literary col- lege faculty committee which fstudied the problem will probably be considered- by the college's, steering committee at its Oct. 12 meeting,. If the literary college authorizes, the plan, subsequent approval is; needed from the University,; through Vice-President and Dean of Faculties Marvin L. Niehuss, before a man is sent to Europe to do the ground work in setting up the extension program. This person would study course offerings, their content and pre-{ requisites, testing and grading1 procedures, prices, living facili- ties, advice students would need, and would establish language tu- tors and credit equivalents' with American schooling. To Avoid Mistake The University hopes to avoid the mistake of establishing ai "little Stanford abroad," as Dean Robertson termed one programl which has its students living to-l See 'U', Page 2 N'ow they do and this is good." Williams said that he felt the one thing now in the minds of the people was who could handle the Russians to the best advan- tage of the United States. Two Accomplishments "Nixon stresses two accomplish- ments," he said. "First, that he has traveled and talked with the leaders of the world; second, that he has talked tough to the Rus- sians. "Now everyone wants to see America in a position where the Russians can't push us around, but I don't think this so-called 'Kitchen Debate' is any example of talking tough." He said that Kennedy had also traveled widely, and has been in contact with the leaders of major nations and visited major trouble spots in the world. Results Count "Talking tough is all right," he went on. "But it's the results that count. America. ,has to be strong militarily, educationally, economi- cally, and spiritually." Williams said the nation needs the skills of every one of its' citizens, and therefore everyone should receive the fullest educa- tion possible. "Only then, in the final analysis, can we prevail on the Soviets, because we are strong- est." In Lansing Williams said that President Dwight Eisenhower has made only the ''most of faint- hearted praise" in endorsing Vice- President Richard M. Nixon's de- cision-making experience, Nixon's Plan Acceptable-r To.Hubbard Would Aid Students By Providing Loans By ANDREW HAWLEY The University medical school would certainly be willing to par- ticipate in a Federal program pro- viding aid to medical students, such as the one recently recom- mended by Vice-President Rich- ard M. Nixon, William N. Hub- bard, dean of the medical school said yesterday. Saying that "some such plan is essential," Hubbard pointed out that while over 95 per cent of the graduate students in the physical sciences in the United States re- ceive some kind of fellowship aid, very few medical students enjoy the same kind of financial assist- ance. Nixon's suggestion for federal assistance, presented Monday, is that fellowships be awarded on the basis of competitive examina- tions and individual need to about half of the country's medical stu- dents. Part of each fellowship would go directly to the medical school in. question, providing encouragement for the expansion of facilities. The rest of the fellowship would take the form of a loan to the student. Nixon also proposed that the federal government pay a larger share of the resulting increased overhead of the institutions In- volved, so as not to burden the medical schools unduly. He sug- gested that such a program would permit an increase in medical school faculty salaries and en- courage more persons to become teachers and research personnel in such schools. WSU Council Votes to Back Ban Removal A statement supporting the Wayne State University's Borarda of Governors' decision to revoke the ban against Communist speak-; ers, was issued last night by WSU's Student-Faculty Council. The declaration reaffirmed a SF0 policy that was passed in March, 1959. It read, "The univer- sity is primarily an Institute of learning . .. In order to promote1 scholarly inquiry and the highesti in academic standards, it is de- ssirable that the student hear alli sides of every issue," it says. -AP Wirepfhoto UN PRINCIPALS--British Prime Minister IHarold Macmillan met with Soviet Premier Nikita Khrush- ch'ev yesterday.

ST"OWE SPEAKS: Americans MisjudgeNasser By JUDITH OPPENHEIM "I believe that most of my fellow countrymen have far less information than they should about United Arab Republic Pre- sident Gamal Abdel Nasser," Prof. Leland Stowe of the journalism department said yesterday. In a talk entitled "What We Need to Know About Nasser," Prof. Stowe expressed conclusions drawn from three months of research in the Middle East for "Reader's Digest" magazine. He will discuss further aspects of Nasser's regime, particularly his relationship with the Soviet bloc, at 4:15 p.m. today in the Rackham Amphitheatre in a lec- ture titled, "Nasser Between East and West: His Communist Bloc Deceptions -- His Growth and Evolution." Prof. Stowe pointed out four popular American misconceptions about Nasser, which he feels should be corrected. The first is the idea that Nasser is headstrong and impetuous when, Prof. Stowe said, the opposite is true. Nasser always weighs every aspect and contingency before acting on a problem, especially one such as the nationalization of the Suez Canal. Patriotic Motives The second misconception is the belief Nasser is "just another power-greedy, military dictator." Nasser's motives, Prof. Stowe said, are for the Arab people and are patriotic and humanitarian. Prof. Stowe refuted the opinion that Nasser is always ready to resort to force to achieve his ends. "Nasser has a deep aversion to bloodshed," he said, and quoted the Arab leader as saying, "After reading about the French Revolu- tion I had such agonies before my eyes . I always remembered that ., . I have always felt that bloodshed will lead to bloodshed." In this afternoon's lecture, Prof. Stowe will discuss the frequently- heard charge that Nasser is "pro- Soviet *. .: hoodwinked by Mos- cow . .. soft on Conmnunists." Nations Sensitive In dealing with Nasser, Prof. Stowe feels that difficulties arise .when foreign governments fail to realize that Nasser and the Arab nations are "hyper-sensitive to any slight or condescension." He explained that, "Nasser has re- stored to Egyptians their self- respect, pride and patriotism, but both he and his people have psychological wounds which are still bleeding." Greatest Interest Prof. Stowe cautions Americans and other foreign powers to con- sider the question, "What if Nas- ser no longer ruled Egypt?" He quotes news commentator Frank Kearns as saying that "The alter- native to Nasser is too awful to contemplate. The result would be either a regime under the fana- tical Moslem Brotherhood or a Communist Regime ruling Egypt and Syria." Prof. Stowe quoted an American diplomat as maintaining that America's greatest interest in the U.A.R. is "that it be and remain a truly independent nation at the most strategic' crossroads in to- day's revolutionary world." Red Leader Meets Briton To Set Stand : Neutralist Leaders Still Press Urgently For D ecision . by U NN T D N T O S ( '- F e mier Nikita S. Khrushchev Indi- cated last night a new Soviet- U.S. meeting is impossible so ong as President Dwight D. Eisen- hower remains in the White' House. Neutralist leaders refused to abandon their proposal for such a meeting, and said they would : continue to press urgently for a vote on it In the United Nations General Assembly. But even they conceded there was little chance for the bid, since it seemed obvious neither world leader wanted to meet the other face to face. What appeared to be Khrush- chevs' final word was given We Britain's. Prime Minister Harold Macmillan, during a 90-minute' meeting with the. Soviet leader. The British said they/ had the impression Khrushchev felt fur- ther piressure was hopeless. Khrushchev, ,pictured by WGest ern sources as shaken by a series' of UN setbacks, was reported plan. ning a new round of UN freworks. And his sheeting with Macmillan showed there was - little hope ,fr East-West agreement on any ma-, jor issue. tiNo Progrs Khrushchev and. Macmillan conf erring at the latter's hotel suite on the eve of the Briton's departure, made no progress n easing the deadlock over the key question of disarmament. Although Khrushchev told newsmen the meeting had been "very productive," a British fo- eign office spokesman reported there was "virtually no change" in positions. Only four days before the two had met in similar circumstances, and neither had budged an inch from previously stated positions. Key Figure Macmillan, a key figure for the West in the current 15th UN Gen- eral Assembly session, agreed with Khrushchev that a new summit'~ conference would be desirable at some time. But both let it go t that. The British spokesman said it was possible Macmillan, before his. departure today, would fill in Eisenhower by telephone on the results of his conference with Khrushchev, in which the dis- armament issue was the dominant theme. The development shook the five neutralist nations who had pre- sented a proposal to the Assembly for an Eisenhower-Khrushchev meeting. what seemed the 'finall Khrushchev rejection came while, the neutrals were appealing to the Asian-African bloc for sup- port. To Press Plea India's Prime Minister Jawahar-. al Nehru, 'a leading figure among the neutrals, said he intended to press, on with the plea. Nehru also told the group he found to- tally unacceptable a move 'by Australia to broaden the propos- ed Eisenhower-Khrushchev meet- ing into a four-power summit "'at the earliest practicable time.
