LXXI, No. 77 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SATURDAY, JANUARY 7, 1961 FIVE CENTS SIX PAC ..... I Gaulle Calls Vote ast French Chance Algerian Solution Necessary Now, President Warns on Eve of Election PARIS WP) -President Charles de Gaulle warned Frenchmen erday that their vote in tomorrow's referendum will be their last nee to solve the Algerian problem, explaining there is a risk world its will sweep it out of their hands. "To reply with the negative for any reason whatever is to deny t the problem should ever be solved by France," he said. "To an is to choose sterility for France." The President made his third and last television appeal for sive backing for Algerian self-determination while villagers in eria were already casting the first votes. For security reasons, the rendum runs three days in that North African territory. A dozen "bombs set off in Paris and Algiers underscored the tense atmosphere. Loniereuie B9aks Rebel Algeran War CASABLANCA, Morocco ( - A summit conference of five anti- Western African leaders last night Issued a resolution supporting the Algerian rebellion. They warned that continuation of the war would force then to reconsider relations with France. The resolution, released after a six-hour session, was understood to be a compromise between the United Arab Republic and Guinea on one side and Morocco, Mali and Ghana on the other. United Arab Republic President ,amal Abdel Nasser and the Guinea representative pressed for complee diplomatic break with Prance. Moderate Victory Indicated The resolution wording that re- lations would be "reconsidered" Inicated aa victory for the more erate views of the other three participants. The resolution also denounced "the assistance given by NATO to France" in the Algerian war and approved "the enlistment of African and' other volunteers in the (Algerian rebel) army of liberation." The conference issued a separate declaration blasting the referen- dum on French President Chalres de Gaulle's Algerian policies. Vot- ing on the French leader's self- determination program began in Algeria yesterday. "The conference denounces and condemns all ,consultation and referendum unilaterally organized by France in Algeria the results of which could in no way commit the Algerian people," the declara- tion said. Invited Recognition The resolution also invited all governments to recognize the rebel' regiem of Ferhat Abbas, declared the determination of the confer- ence participants to "support by all means the Algerian people and the provisional government of the Algerian Republic in their struggle for independence," and called for immediate withdrawal of all Af- rican troops serving under French command in Algeria. That an outright break was not advocated indicated the import- ance Ghana, Mali and Morocco attach to the economic and tech- nical assistance they receive from France Wlins Meets With Kennedy On ivi 1 Rights NEW YORK ()-Roy Wilkins, executive secretary of the Nation- al Association for the Advance- ment of Colored People, conferred with President-elect John F. Ken- nedy yesterday and said afterward he is satisfied the incoming chief executive will support all the Democratic platform pledges on civil rights. Wilkins said this includes a pledge to change the Senate rules to make it easier to shut off fili- busters against civil rights legis- lation. "I am satisfied that he under- stands the importance and the place of civil rights, and that his administration will support all the pledges of the platform" Wilkins added., As for the party platform's strong civil rights plank, Wilkins said he regards the president- elect as one of the architects of Asks Favorable Vote The President, speaking with emphasis and some emotion, asked a massive "yes" vote-"a majority in proportion to what is involved" -so his plan could be carried through. About 30 million Frenchmen, in- cluding nearly four million Al- gerian Moslems, must decide whether they favor the setting up of an autonomous Algerian state and later political self-de- termination by the Algerians themselves. There is no talk of an end to the six-year Nationalist rebellion in the question put to them, but de Gaulle clearly implied yester- day that-if backed by the nation -he has a quick peace talks in mind. Choose Destiny "What is involved in the refer-, endum," he said, "is not only recognition of the right of popula- tions to choose their destiny . but to aim at obtaining in the shortest time possible a peaceful confrontation of all tendencies in order to organize self-determina- tion f reely." In Algiers, there was disap- pointment that he said nothing new about protection of the French settlers and other members of the European minority under the new Algerian state he envis- ages. They saw his speech as mainly intended for home con- sumption. First reports from the back country indicated that, in some districts at least, the Moslems were voting heavily despite rebel orders to boycott the polls. Officials said there were no in- cidents at the polling stations and only a few minor demonstrations. GOP Plans To Question Appointees WASHINGTON (R)-- Sen. Everett M. Dirksen (R-111) yester- day promised lengthy and detailed questioning by Republican sena- tors of Robert F. Kennedy, de- signated by his brother, President- elect John F. Kennedy, to be the next attorney general. "We have a duty to establish a complete record," Dirksen, the. Senate Republican leader, told newsmen at the capitol. He said Republican senators would cooperate in the effort to act upon all of Kennedy's Cabinet and other selections prior to in- auguration on Jan. 20. But Dirksen said the younger Kennedy, 35-year old campaign manager for his brother, would face extensive questioning by the judiciary committee. Dirksen is a member of that group., Dirksen said the questioning of the youthful prospective attorney general was necessary in case he makes mistakes later. At the same time Dirksen said he "has a completely open mind" on the younger Kennedy and could not now say how he would vote. Dirksen also said there will be numerous questions for Chester Bowles, picked by Kennedy to be Under-secretary of State, and G. Mennen Williams, selected to be Assistant Secretary of State for African affairs. Dirksen said the attitude of Bowles, former House member and governor of Connecticut, on re- lations with Communist China would be "rather freely venti- lated." Several Republican senators, in- cluding Styles Bridges and Norris Cotton of New Hampshire, con- tend that Bowles has indicated he might be willing to admit Red China to the United Nations. TEry To Stop Belgiane Riots LIEGE, Belgium (M) - The governor of Liege province early today banned all public gatherings of more than five persons in an effort to stop strike rioting. It was issued after the provin- cial governor, state police com- mander, military commander and Liege's mayor met to decide mea- sures to be taken following the riots that raged here yesterday. $2.5 Billion In School Ak Give Order. To Integrate In Georgia MACON, Ga. ('M) - A federal judge yesterday ordered the all- white University of Georgia to admit two Negro students im- mediately. United States District Judge W. R. Bootle held that the school, oldest state-chartered university in the nation, had discriminated against the two students because of their race. He permanently en- joined the institution from barring other eligible Negro students. One of the students, Charlayne Hunter, is enrolled in Wayne State University in Detroit. Miss Hunter said she would travel to Athens, Georgia, .the site of the school, "as soon as I can-prob- ably tomorrow.", Problems Raised Bootle's decision presented the Georgia legislature, convening Monday, with new, grave problems involving integration. State law prohibits use of state funds to operate an integrated college. Bootle took note of this but said constitutionality of that statute was not an issue in the case of the two students seeking admission to Georgia. The legislature also is faced with the problem of maintaining a public school system in the face of a federal court order requiring desegregation of Atlanta public schools next fall. Present law also cuts off funds for public schools that are ordered integrated. Atlanta Residents Miss Hunter and the other stu- dent, Hamilton Holmes, are both residents of Atlanta. Holmes hopes to become a doctor and .wouid take pre-med courses at the university. Atty. Gen. Eugene Cook said an appeal would be filed in the Bootle ruling. But in order to prevent immediate entrance of the Negroes to Georgia the state also would have to obtain an order staying the Judge's ruling pending a decision by the United States Circuit Court of Appeals. Withhold Comment 0. C. Aderhold, president of the University of Georgia and Robert 0. Arnold, chairman of the board of regents of the university sys- tem withheld comment on Bootle's decision pending receipt of the formal order. Knocking down a university con- tention that the Negroes had not exhausted administrative appeals before suing, Bottle said they had prosecuted one appeal through administrative channels which re- quired 122 days for final action. University students hung an effigy from an arch and burned a cross in front of a hall last night in protest of the federal court order. , Kennedy Group Propose COMMITTEE ON EDUCATION-President-elect John F.

SENATE RULES: Southerners Battle for Filibuster WASHINGTON (,') - Southern senators battling against a stron- ger anti-filibuster rule said yes- terday that giving "unbridled power to a temporary majority" would undermine basic constitu- tional principles. The rules, war of words over Senate under way intermittentlyI CONFERENCE ON AGING: Eigh To onduct Section. On Gerontology Training "Aging might be said to stand now, in public awareness, where kindergartens did in 1900 or adolescent social and psychological understanding did in the 1920's," Wilma Donahue, director of the division of gerontology, said, in a report prepared for next week's White House Conference on Aging. Mrs. Donahue, along with seven faculty members from other departments, will head a section on the role and training of profes- sional personnel in the newly developed profession of gerontology and present the first comprehensive survey of progress made in training people to serve the nation's older persons. Important Advances While action programs undertaken since the first White House Conference in 1950 have resulted in many important advances in housing, health, and education,T since the new Congress convened Tuesday, went on under an agree- U.S. Leaves Cuban Office HAVANA UP) - Switzerland took over protection of United States interests in Cuba last night and the remaining American em- bassy staff people made ready to leave for home. A short conference between Swiss Ambassador Walter Bossi See Earlier Story, Page 3 and United States Charge d'Af- faires Daniel M. Braddock, pre- ceded the formal transfer of dip- lomatic powers. Bossi went to the United States embassy to arrange details after being advised Washington had approved Red Czechoslovakia to represent Cuban interests in the United States. ment that no votes would be taken before next week. At issue is whether to change the rule that requires the votes of two-thirds of the senators voting to put a time limit on Senate debate. Twenty-three democratic and republican senators have offered a resolution to permit filibusters to be shut off after 15 days by a majority, or 51, of the 100 sena- tors. Senate Republican leader Ever- ett M, Dirksen of Illinois told newsmen he sees no chance thatl this proposal will be adopted. A compromise proposal, rated a better chance of winning ap- proval, provides that filibusters could be halted by a three-fifths margin of the senators voting. In other Congressional action yesterday Rep. Howard W. Smith (D-Va) veteran chairman of the House rules committee, said he is willing to discuss with Speaker Sam Rayburn "any honorable compromise" in the battle over the committee's makeup. But, Smith stressed in an inter- view, he could not consider any proposal to "pack the committee with left-wingers" or purge from membership Rep. William M. Col- mer (D-Miss). The rules committee fight cen- ters around Rayburn's announced intention to break the hold a coalition of Republicans and Southern Democrats has on legis- lation. Rayburn reportedly is determined to throw Colmer off the committee if necessary. Smith said he is willing to agree not to try to kill any of the major legislative proposals espoused by President-elect John F. Kennedy and would consider waiving the committee's jurisdic- tion over bills that have passed both Senate and House and are awaiting compromise. The move to oust Colmer from the committee, should Rayburn bring that issue to a head, would be based on the Mississippian's refusal to support the Kennedy- Johnson ticket. Colmer has been on the rules committee more than 20 years. AMA SupporiS Kennedy Plan On Aged Care NEW YORK W-)-The American Medical Association yesterday promised full cooperation to the Kennedy administration in imple- menting the health care for the aged law, enacted at the last ses- sion of Congress. Dr. E. Vincent Askey of Los Angeles, AMA president, made the announcement after conferring here with Abraham Ribicoff, sec- retary-designate of the Depart- ment of Health, Education and Welfare. The AMA said it had pledged its continued cooperation with the federal department on a number of health programs and expressed belief it would enjoy a warm rela- tionship with Ribicoff. (Prof. Wilbur J. Cohen of the school of social work saw no sig- nificance in the AMA's statement. "The statement is repetitious as Congress knew the law had AMA' support when they passed it',' he said. ("The statement does not solve the vast' differences in attitude over the social security rissue," Prof. Cohen said. He saw future conflict between the AMA and Ribicoff because the organization favors the present law and the secretary-designate is committed to the Kennedy plan of aid through the social security sys- tem.) 'Predicts Talks With Chinese Would Give. Added Fuid To Colleges Experts Also Sugge Grants to Big Cities By The Associated Press A program of federal aid schools, amounting to nearly '$ billion annually, was proposed President-elect John F. Kenne yseterday by his special task for on education. The recommendation said ti outlay would "lift the schools to new level of excellence." It was drawn up by a gro headed by Frederick Hovde, pre dent of Purdue University ax suggests federal aid to public, pr mary, elementary, and seconda school, and public and private i stitutions of higher education. To Receive Grants Colleges and universities wou receive at least $500 million loans and grants the first ye and the college housing loan pr gram would increase by $1.4 billi over a four-year period. (Private colleges and universiti would receive loans and grants they expand their academic ax physical facilities to take care more. students, Prof. Dean IF. Kbe pel, dean of the Harvard Unive sity education school and a menx ber of the six-man group said la night.) The money, for both colleg and other schools, would be all cated to the states, with lo school authorities permitted sp'end it on teacher salaries, sche construction or other purposes improve education. (rof. Kepl3 said the group suggested a pla ning committee be formed in ea state to recommend distributiC of the funds.) Federal Aid Needed The report said, "state and loc governments alone cannot pr vide the funds needed. Feder support is required." (Vice - President and Dean Faculties Marvin L. Niehuss sa it has not been fully demonstrati that ,federal support is requiri in Michigan. ("While such support might he the country in general in th some states might get needi funds, more money would probab go out of Michigan than wou come in," he said. (Niehuss said the present cond tion of state support to Michig universities, largely a result of t confused situation in finance a taxes, does not mean Michigs cannot provide the necessa funds.) Request Revision - The President-elect's adviso: committee also requested that t Budget Bureau revise its positi on payments allowed colleges a universities on research contraci (Niehuss called -this proposal "desirable move." Such, paymen are too small to cover the tot costs of the contracts or gran he said, and most institutions ha been urging his change.) Another suggestion of the grot was that the Internal Reveni Service rescind a month-old'rulh which the task force says discou ages philanthropic gifts call "living trusts" to colleges a universities. Advance Three Plans Three plans' to aid schools bel the college level, all to'be based c average daily attendance, were: 1) Provide schools in all stat with a blanket $30 per year p pupil. This would cost an est mated $1.2 billion. 2) Provide an additional $ per year per child in states whe incomes are below seven per ce: of the national average. It wf estimated that about one-four of the states, mostly in the Sout would qualify, and that the pr gram would cost about $140 mi lion. 3l A llfnW, Ya V%+l'1p EAl. nr ~ there is still an urgent need for training of competent personnel in such areas as medicine, social work, recreation, and religion. Mrs. Donahue will emphasize the fact that present professional concern seems at present to be greatest among middle aged per- sons. "We need' to recruit our young people," Mrs. Donahue said, "but we're going to have to have the same kind of bait that others can offer." She stressed the dif- ficulty of interesting young medi- cal students in working with older people, largely due to the fact that scholarship funds are gen- erally allocated to students of children and young adults. Group To Argue Against those who oppose the designation of a separate specialty called gerontology, Mrs. Donahue and her group will argue that "the treatment of disease and psy- chological problems is entirely different among the aged." Bodies function more slowly, Mrs. Dona- hue says; "people look different, and are therefore treated dif- ferently, requiring a whole new process of adjustment.' As there is to date no specialized Mia By TOM WEBBER A power play goal late in the third period by Red Berenson, his second of the night, gave Michi- gan a hard earned 2-1 victory over stubborn Michigan Tech last night. The two teams will meet again tonight at 8 p.m. in the Coliseum to battle for third place in the WCHA standings. Goalie Jim Coyle of Michigan made Berenson's goals hold up with some outstanding goalkeep- ing. Coyle kicked out 34 shots in all, but several of them were spectacular and earned applause from the large crowd. Coach Al Renfrew, however, plans to continue alternating his goalies by starting Dave Butts in tonight's return bout. Hotly Contested The game itself was bitterly contested with both sides dealing out hard body checks. Tempers ;. -
