L THE MICHIGAN DAILY ke A asks Extension Present Polici( Rush Plans ' eS ULJSSIA, CHINA IN LAOS: Communists Play Same Role By J. M. ROBERTS Associated Press News Analyst The Soviet Union's role in Laos suggests that she and Red China may be playing interchangeable rather than merely complementary roles in Communism's 1961 "Big Push." It also suggests that, in spite of their seeming compromise over who shall lay prime stress on "peaceful coexistence" and who shall hold in reserve the threat of force to decide the cold war, Prison Office Objects to TV 'Untouchables' WASHINGTON (P) - Director James V. Bennett of the United States Bureau of Prisons wired 10 television stations yesterday that the bureau will oppose renewal of their broadcasting licenses if they showed the program, "The Un- touchables," last night. All the stations have applica- tions pending before the Federal Communications Commission for renewal of regular three-year li- censes. Bennett has been battling with the American Broadcasting Co. over "The Untouchables," which he contends has defamed officers of the Prisons Bureau. the West cannot afford to take an eye of either one. Although preoccupied with Rus- sia and Russian arms in Cuba and Laos, the United States' outgoing President and incoming secretary of state are taking time to em- phasize concern over Red China. There are two immediate rea- sons. One is a subtle but growing in- clination in Western diplomatic circles to credit Russia with a cur- rent if no permanent leaning to- ward continued non-shboting war. This follows her argument with China over coexistence, and down- grades her triple display-in Laos, Cuba and The Congo-of willing- ness to intervene physically. The other reason for America's particular concern with Red China is the approach of a time when United States opposition will no longer be sufficient to prevent United Nations recognition. When the Communist Idiom has been sufficiently illumined by deeds to make the recent Com- munist Manifesto really under- standable, we are quite likely to find the two leading countries of the bloc playing the same game of expediency quite aside from ideology. Now that American weapons have been pitted against Soviet weapons in Laos, Western observ- ers will be watching closely to see what Red China, acting perhaps through her associates in North Viet Nam, will do as a corollary in South Viet Nam. There can be little doubt that Moscow and Peiping consid'er this Laotian-South Viet Nam front as one front. Both lost a long guerrilla war to the British in Malaya, where most of the Communists were Chinese. Neither, in the long run, will be satisfied to let that issue remain settled, Ends A-ttack Propaganda Cites Record Of Checking Communists Democrats Disagree With 'Too Rosy' View WASHINGTON (P) - President Dwight D. Eisenhower called on his successor yesterday to stick to principles which, he said have kept America strong and free in a world menaced by Communist troublemakers. Reviewing the record of his eight years in office, during which he said the country has risen to unprecedented heights while hold- ing Red imperialism in check, Eisenhower said: "These vital programs must go 14 x i a II The Michigan Union and Women's League present WINTER WEEKEND SKIING AT HOLIDAY HILL in TRAVERSE CITY Feb. 10-12 $29.00 all inclusive Sign up at League Undergrad Offices 9-5 Mon.-Fri.

World News Roundup By The Associated press BATON ROUGE-The Louisiana Legislature fired another segre- gation barrage in the New Orleans school crisis yesterday, passing a measure to name a new city school board and again moving to dis- miss the superintendent of schools. The Legislature, the Orleans parish school board and superin- tendent of schools James F. Redmond have been at odds for weeks over integration of city schools. * * * * MOSCOW-Charges that United States warplanes are buzzing to Continue GOP Policy WASHINGTON (M)-Dean Rusk, soon to become the Kennedy Ad- ninistration's secretary of state, indicated yesterday there will be no sharp departures from Eisen- hower administration foreign pol- icies, at least for the present. Rusk submitted to questioning by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, although he won't be nominated formally until after John F. Kennedy is inaugurated as President seven days from now. Rusk was before the commit- tee for more than two hours and afterward chairman J. William Fulbright (D-Ark) said it won't be necessary to call him back. Fulbright-who at one stage was in the running for the secretary of state post-said his committee will consider action on Rusk's nomination at its next business meeting. By all signs, Rusk will be ap- proved. Both Republican and Democrat- ic senators probed for Rusk's views on a number of interna- tional issues-Red China, Cuba, disarmament, summitry, United States relations with its allies, the fate of United States fliers held in Russian prisons, to list a few. Party Chief Hit for Lying MOSCOW (tm--Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev has reprimanded the Communist party chief in the great grain producing Ukraine for lying about corn production, warning "You will pay for this lack of leadership." The premier then suggested that farmers be taught to operate trac- tors and combines instead of im- porting professionals from thou- 'sands of miles away for a harvest lasting only 15 days. The Central Committee, which already has ordered a drastic overhaul of the agricultural min- istry, continued its secret ses- sions yesterday on methods of spurring farm output.

British, French, Canadian, Nor- wegian and Danish ships or planes were accused by Viktor Bakayev, Soviet merchant marine minister, of shadowing Soviet vessels or swooping down over them on mis- sions of photography or harass- ment.
