LXXI, No.15 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1960 FIVE CENTS EIGHT FIVE CENTS EIGHT Hass Views Threats Against Capitalism Socialist Labor's Nominee Cites Built-In Contradictions, Arms Race By MICHAEL BURNS Capitalism is a system threatened from within due to its built-in contradictions, Socialist Labor presidential nominee Eric Hass told a small audience at Angell School last night. These contradictions, along with the "capitalist lies" and attempts to continue the arms race, will, when realized, provide the incentive for the labor class to mobilize politically and initiate "a social recon- struction of society," he said. The prestige of social production and private ownership is the biggest contradiction of the system, Hass emphasized.

Dean Imeyns, who had et wit the literary college administratv board before deciding to permi the operations at the discretio of the instructors, added that let ters explaining the plan would b sent to the various departments. The service, announced yester day by four students who prefe: to remain anonymous at present hill provide subscribers with up to-date mimeographed lectur notes. Student Edited The notes will be taken an edited by honor students enrolle in the course, re-edited by anothe student who has already had the course, and delivered within 24 hours after each lecture, accord ing to the leaders. At least two lecture sections- Zoology 1 and Anthropology 31- will be covered when the opera. tion -gets underway Monday. Stu. dents in those courses will be furnished a free set of notes ove this week's lectures, and given the opportunity to subscribe for fur ther coverage. Ultimately, the or ganization, which calls itself the University Study Service, hope to offer notes for about ten large lecture courses. Prices cannot be exactly spei- f redbecause of the present fluidi- ty of the operation, a group spokesman said. However, good wages for notetakers and th csts of printing and distribution will probably dictate a charge o 15 to 20 cents per lecture, Subscriber Service Interested students may sub- scribe to the service for four weeks with the option of renew- in gfor the rest of the semester. Or they may subscribe initially for the entire semester, at a reduced rate. Notes may not be purchased on a day-by-day basis. Cost of the service will not exceed $10 per semester, the organizers added. Willians Raps State's 'Slop' Constitution LANSING W--Gov. Williams Wednesday ripped Michigan's 52- year-old Constitution up one side and down the other and called on voters to clear the way for a many companies through various stages of production, social pro- duction exists. Discusses Production At the same time, goods are produced for individual profit, not for use, in our present economic system and therefore benefit only the small number of capitalists, he said. Capitalism permits the workers to buy back only a portion of the labor they have contributed to production, since a profit must be taken out and since workers are not paid fqr their worth but only according to the demand for their services which fluctuates, he explained. "Capitalism Is a system of waste," he stressed. Unnecessary Growth The system encourages the growth of unnecessary businesses which contribute nothing to the improvement of goods, Hass said. Capitalists try to promote "eco- nomic imperialism" in foreign countries to dispose of their sur- pluses, surpluses produced by the waste of the system. In order to promite their own economic in- terest in the huge defense indus- tries, capitalists will not allow the government to disarm or even seriously consider conferring with other nations about this problem; he said. These economic factors are the reasons for America's concern with Latin American revolution, typi- fled by Castro's rebellion, the twice-defeated presidential candi- date said. Private invesunent in Latin America by the United States amounted to $9.5 billion last year, he pointed out. "No Battle" ings of automation and "people's capitalism," he warned. Hass said his party believes it, can become a major party in the future, but is now only trying to educate American people. Once in power it would establish equaliza- tion of income, voting through1 labor unions and a national coun- cil which would determine produc- tion policies as well as other prob- lems of the nation. PLANS: 'U' Party Discusses platform By RUTH EVENHUIS The. platform committee of the recently organized campus politi- cal party discussed the scope of and possible issues to be sched- uled in the platform last night. Fifty students attended the open session. Debate centered around the question of the ad- visability of party stands on na- tional or internationalissues in addition to the positions taken on campus affairs. It was suggested that the plat- form concern itself only with is- sues pertaining to the campus. The rationale involved the con- sideration that keeping foremost the party's objective of winning seats on the Student Government Council, the issues on which the candidates run must be those which will elicit the greatest stu- dent interest, Argue Questions Proponents of this opinion ar- gued that although students are involved in national and inter- national questions, they often do not realize this and are most con- cerned with on-campus issues of which they are more aware. Consequently, an educational groundwork must precede the in- clusion of outside issues in the platform. It was suggested that such areas be developed gradually as the party grows in experience and influence. Those favoring comment on na- tional affairs which affect the students, objected to "gradualism" or exclusion as a betrayal of par- ty objectives. Discuss Philosophy Equating basic party philosophy with a strong commitment to such areas as the student movement, disarmament and desegregation, strong corresponding platform' planks were advocated. Jack Ladinsky, Grad., chair- man of the campus operations committee proposed a statement of party policy in the form of a prerable to th -dgtfori hnri'v- ing a general approach to the party convictions on national and world affairs. Campus issues which came un-1 der consideration included driving3 regulations, a recognition of the administrative wing of the Stu- dent Activities Building, and a consideration of the University Lecture Committee. Student responsibility and uni-' versity paternalism, university housing, the establishment of a grievance committee and a closer alliance with the National Stu- dent Association were other items discussed.l N or O Grad Claims Catholic Vote Not Cohesive By MARSHA FRANKEL "Considering that there is little cohesion among the Catholics to- day, we should not accept religion as the cause for a Kennedy vote, but look for other reasons," said Mike Lamphier, Grad, at a New- man Club panel discussion of "Will Catholics vote for Kennedy" last night. Prof. Philip Converse, study di- rector of the Survey Research Center, summarized the historical background of the Catholic vote in presidential and congressional elections. In 1956, of all the peo- ple who voted Democratic, 7 per cent more were Catholic than were non-Catholic. "Notes Index" This index of "distinctiveness" has been steadily declining since 1948, and is now estimated at 3 per cent. Prof. Converse cited three fac- tors which lead to the influence of groups on their members: Co- hesiveness, legitimacy and the strength of norms. The cohesive- ness of the Catholic religion was determined by the degree of iden- tity apparent, which has been steadily decreasing. Legitimacy is ascertained by asking how right it is for groups to lobby and to endorse members of the group for political candi- dacy. Again, the Catholics show a rather low index when compared to Negroes and unions. Determine Strength To determine the strength of the norms, the Survey Research Center studied situations in which a Catholic was runnig agimst a non-Catholic in a congressional race. Of the total Catholic voters, 61 per cent were for the Catholic, as compared to 49 per cent of the control non-Catholics. Mike Lamphier took over the discussion at this point and point- ed out that the presidential elec- tions of 1952 and 1956 were quite obviously stacked with prestige ("General" Eisenhower vs. a rela- tively unknown Adlai Stevenson). Equal Distribution The prestige in this election is fairly equally distributed. He sug- gested several interpretations of the data with regard to the com- ing election. First, the Catholics might vote Democratic because they have a history of doing so. This would seem to indicate that the Catholics vote as a so- cial group rather than as a re- ligious group. Second, the histori- cal analogy of the 1928 campaign in which Al Smith ran, doesn't have much bearing on the present situation. Then, a combination of being "wet," coming from a low- er class, and being Catholic meant defeat. BUCS BEAT 'EM- Pirates Sink Yankees in Opener PITTSBURGH (M -- The alert Pittsburgh Pirates knocked out the New York Yankee starter with three runs in the first inning yes- terday and clawed out a 6-4 vic- tory in the opening World Series game despite 13 Yankee hits off Vern Law and Elroy Face. When Law, the N a t i o n a l League champ's 20-game winner, tired in the eighth, Pirate man- ager Danny Murtaugh called on Elroy Face, the scrawny guitar- twanging relief ace. Taking over with two on and nobody out, little Elroy slipped a sinker past Mick- ey Mantle for a third called strike, got Yogi Berra on a fly and struck out Moose Skowron. Although Face was nicked for a two-run pinch homer by Elston Howard in the ninth, the Yanks never could generate enough steam to catch-the fighting Bucs after that first inning. Retires One Art Ditmar, the Yanks' starter, retired only one man before the hit-and-run scrappersfrom the National League finished him off for the day to the delight of 36 - 676 at ancient Forbes Field. Ditmar went to the mound with a one-run lead, fashioned by Rog- er Maris'r350-foot home run into the upper deck in right in the Yankee first. It didn't last long. The American League cham- pions, who finished the regular season with 15 straight victories played like sleep walkers in the Pirate first. They never were able to recover. It was the Pirates' first series victory over the Yanks, who brushed them off in four straight in 1927. Bill Virdon walked, stole sec- ond and sped all the way to third whn nobody wvered second base on Berr a's row. Then came Dick Groat, the NL batting king, ram- ming a double to right scoringj Virdon.a Bounces Ball Bob Skinner bounced a hard shot past Bobby Richardson on ther well-packed infield and Groat raced in with the run that put the Pirates ahead to stay.

The Council acted on a motion by Arthur Rosenbaum, '62, and Daily Editor Thomas Hayden, '61, that it express this opinion about the liquor issue, which will be voted on in the Nov. 8 election.

Y.+ Five neutral powers early today withdrew a resolution calling for . talks between President Dwghi D. Eisenhower and Soviet Premie Nikita Khrushchev after . the General Assembly eliminated re- ference to the two leaders. In a dramatic, post-midnight move following a long wrangling debate, Indian Prime Minister Nehru told the 98'nation assembly that the five felt it had lost its sense of urgency and moral ap- proach to the East-West issue. Nehru Opposes Change Nehru declared that the change which reduced the resolution to a mere call for renewed contact between the oviet Union and the United States rendered it virtually meaningless. . . "There has been no break in contacts diplomatically," Nehru said. "So it doesn't seem reason- able that the Assembly should be associated with such a resolution. The change which provoked the withdrawal had been supported by Secretary of State Christian A. Herter, who said the neutralist resolution singled out two in dividuals either of whom "could be gone tomorrow." Amendment Defeated Earlier the Assembly defeated an Australian amendment which would have changed the five- power draft to a call for a Big Four meeting instead of nimetng between Khrushchev and Elsem- hower. The Assembly went into night session on the neutralist proposal after another round of general debate in which Australia die- nounced Khrushchev as a hypo- critical latter-day Caesar trying to break up the United Nations, Nehru, a leading and influential voice of neutralism, had spear header the neutralist effort, de- manding unanaimous or near- unanimous passage of the five- nation resolution sponsored by Ghana, India, Indonesia, the United Arab Republic and Yugo. 'slavia. Failure Called 'Dangerous' Failure of the assembly to adopt the proposal, Nehru had warned in midday, would be dangerous to the world's future. But, apparently reflecting sag- ging neutralist hopes, the sponsor nations watered down their orig- inal resolution, changing their "request" for an Eisenhower. Khrushchev - conference to an expression of hope that one would take place. Apparently, the best the neut- ralists hoped for In view of the distaste for the idea expressed by both world leaders, was that the assembly would spread that expression of hope on the record.drsssU Spirited debate over the neutra- list attempt, occupying most o the Assembly's morning time, was interrupted in the afternoon for resumption of the policy debate. It was then that Australian gPrime Minister Robert Gordon Menzles, In an address prepared for that debate, let fly his heavy assualt on Khrushchev, one of the strongest against the Com- munist chief thus far at this spectacular 15th GeneralAssembly session. Menzies conferred with President Eisenhower In Washing- ton Sunday. Collins To Talk For Kennedy Joe Collins, campaign manager for Democratic gubernatorial can- didate John Swainson, will ad- dress the Law Students Commit- tee for Kennedy and Swainson at 8:00 p.m. today on the third floor of the Union. Board Charges Queens With Anti-Catholic Bias of the approved motion will be sent to all local newspapers and radio stations. As approved, the motion says the Council feels passage of "liquor by the glass" would "offer a more realistic approach to the question of student drinking." The Council added that the local community would probably benefit from adequately controlled local establishments that would sell liquor by the glass. And "it seems implausible to be- lleve that the morality of students would degenerate because of sale of liquor by the glass in Ann Arbor. While the Council appreci- ates the concern of a segment of the community, the progress of Ann Arbor should not be sacrificed because of overly protected con- siderations for the students' mor- ality. Mass Meeting To Set Topic For Challenge The Challenge topic for next semester will be chosen at 4:15 p.m. 'today at a mass meeting in room 3R-S of the Union. Topics under consideration in- clude the Challenge of the nu- clear age, the Challenge of the United Nations, the Challenge of underdeveloped nations, the Chal- lenge of American foreign policy, the Challenge of co-existence, and the Challenge of international communism.

Goes to Court On Sept. 1 the board went to *court to challenge the commis- Ssion's jurisdiction over its employ- fment of teachers. The board ob- tained an order temporarily stay- ing the informal investigation. Tuesday the state agency asked that the stay be vacated and the board be enjoined from taking any further such action. The case is to be argued on Oct. 27. Commissioner J. Edward Con- way conducted the inquiry. Among the "manifestations" cited as lead- ing to the conclusion that the was "resistance" to the progress of Catholics at the college were the following: "The small number of Catholic teachers employed at Queens College." Of a total staff of 425 when the inquiry started, only 22 Catholics had teaching positions and eight had nonteaching posi- tions with tenure while 15 others were non permanent appointees.

"Keep that intensity going now," shouted the director, and the curtain opens on the cold, gray stone set which provides a lifeless background for the drama of despair. A fevered figure in gray overcoat lies on a stone bench tossing in his sickness and mental conflict. Stiff, green-uniformed guards stalkC into the cell making quick, stiff, imperious gestures. The dark, desolate scenes are interrupted with dream sequences representing the prinsoner's old life, in which bright rooms play host to "joyful,singing men, who dance with their arms around each other.
