WILLIAM FULBRIGHT Burks Views Communist- Associations of Goulart ti By RAYMOND.HOLTON "Former B'azilian President Joao Goulart met daily with Moscow Communist Party leaders while he was in office," Prof. David D. Burks of the history department said last night. However, Prof. Burks added that he didn't believe Goulart was a true Communist as much as he was an opportunist. "I believe the congress, which mainly consists of moderates and. conservatives, and the military, became disgusted with Goulart's -ways of doing things through SEN. WILLIAM PROXMIRE executive decree." Agrarian Reform' Prof. Burks, who visited Brazil last year, cited Goulart's effort to put into effect an agrarian reform measure which was previously turned down by congress. Prof. Burks is a specialist on Latin America affairs and has written many articles dealing with Latin America. He said the Communist party in Brazil is now split. "The party splintered in 1961. A majority of the party members belong to the recognized Communist party of Brazil which is anti-violence and anti-Castro. Illegal Group "The other Communist 'group is in, the hills of northeastern Brazil and is illegal. It advocates violence and is a strong backer of Castro." Prof. Burks said that the late President J o h n F. Kennedy "washed his hands of Goulart's government." The United States also cut off most of its Alliance for Progress aid which went to Brazil. Prof. Burks said that President, Lyndon B. Johnson's "best wishes" to Brazil's new president is merely, a continuance of U.S. policy. Prime Choice Commenting on future develop- ments in Brazil, Prof. Burks said that former president Jucelino Kubitschek might be the prime choice in the next regular elec- tions. (Kubitschek, predecessor of Quadros, was unable to succeed himself.)] Prof. Burks' also thought that the nationalism of industry in Brazil , would continue because such an issue cuts across party1 lines.J lUrge Change In Elections Efficiency Fulbright Proclaims Pro-Red Tendencies Of Former Regime A military general has been en- dorsed as a candidate for the presidency of Brazil, and exiled President Joao Goulart has turned up in Montevideo. Last night, Sen. J. William Ful- bright (D-Ark), chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Re- lations, told The Daily in a tele- phone interview that Goulart def- initely indicated Communist tend- encies while in office. The endorsement of Castlo Branco, a reluctant prime mover in ousting Goulart, was given by seven state governors instrumental in toppling the Goulart govern- ment. New Leaders The endorsement came as Bra- zil's new political chiefs worked feverishly to prepare for a quick election in Congress, possibly as early as next Wednesday, to pick an interim president. Goulart was succeeded when he fled to Brasilia, the capital, by Paschoal Ranieri Mazzilli as pro- visional president. Under Brazil's constitution, Maz- zilli succeeded Goulart since there was no vice-president. Goulart had been vice-president and assumed the presidency when Janio Quad- ros .resigned in August, 1961 Unanimous Choice Gov. Jose Magalhaes Pinto of Minas Gerais State announced the endorsement of Castelo Branco and said the seven governors were unanimous in picking him as their candidate for possible election by congr ss to the presidency. Magalhaes said the governors agreed on an active military man because they felt "The armed forces must be integral collabora- tors with the new government" in getting rid of the last vestiges of Communism in Brazil. Fulbright said that Goulart had replaced older generals in the Brazilian army with military men who leaned toward Communism. Communist Moves He also said that Goulart's brother-in-law, Leonel Brizola, was a Communist. He cited Goulart's moves to nationalize Brazilian in- dustry as another example of his Communist tendencies.' "The military is the most stable1 element in Brazil. The country is in ferment because it is emerging from a feudal stage of develop- ment." Goulart was given a cool re- ception at Montevideo, despite an announcement he would be re-1 ceived with honors as a formerr Brazilian president.t He arrived at Montevideo ap- parently on a direct flight by a' single engine plane from his Sao Borja ranch in southern Brazil. Goulart joined his wife and theirf two children who had flown tol Montevideo Friday. President Appoints Diplomat WASHINGTON (P) - President Lyndon B. Johnson named a new ambassador to Panama yesterday. Latin American director of the Peace Corps, Jack Vaughn, who has had considerable experience in foreign aid work in Latin Amer- ica and once served in Panama. Johnson said Vaughn would go to Panama "just as soon as he can be confirmed by the Senate." The ambassadorial post has been vacant since last August. John- son praised Vaughn as a man who knows personally about as many, Panamanians as any United States citizen does. Johnson made the announce- ment after informing the Pana- manian, government through an exchange of notes between Sec- retary of State Dean Rusk and Panama's Foreign Minister Gali- leo Solas. Reopen Ties The notes reopening diplomatic ties, cleared away the last obstacle to the United States-Panamanian agreement concluded Friday to ne- gotiate for a "just and fair" solution of their differences over the 1903 treaty which gives the United States absolute and perpet- ual control of the Canal Zone. Panama is demanding a share in control. The Panamanian settlement for- mula, was reached just one day after the new government was es- tablished in Brazil following the ouster of President Joao Goulart, whose policies were often pro- Communist and frequently antag- onistic toward the United States. CIVIL RIGHTS:, Rule Tite Lawful By The Associated Press WASHINGTON-A panel of 22 prominent lawyers expressed yes- terday the belief that the Public Accommodations and Fair Em- ployment sections of the civil rights bill are constitutional. These sections of the bill em- powersthe attorney general with the right to institute integration suits. This was withheld in the 1957 civil rights act but is the main provision of title four in the bill now before the Senate. Among those on the panel of lawyers were three former at- tornies general, four past presi- dents of the American Bar As- sociation and four deans of law schools. Reason Sen. John Sherman Cooper (R- Ky) said the reason for the title is that since most Southern of- ficials had refused to obey the 1954 court decision ruling that segregation in public schools vio- lates the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment, "the Con- gress must assume its responsibil- ity under section five of the 14th Amendment." This section gives Congress the power to enforce by appropriate legislation equal pro- tection of the law.' Title four of the bill empowers the attorney general to initiate de-' segregation suits. But it sets con- ditions on this power: Conditions -He must receive a written' complaint saying that he is being discriminated against because of race. -He must decide if the com- plainant is unable to maintain legal proceedings himself. -He must determine whether federal action wvill "materially further" heogovernment's policy or orderly desegregation. Counter-Argument The Southerners dispute the title on the grounds that it gives the attorney general "new, unique and unwarranted powers." At present the Senate is hav- ing trouble maintaining a quorum in the chamber while the debate of this bill is going on. . Yesterday the Senate was ad- journed because a quorum could not be called. Debate will resume on Monday, but Senate leaders have not yet indicated when they will take ac- tion to stop the Southern filibuster. ARCHBISHOP MAKARIOS Christmas between the island's Turkish and Greek communities. 'Flagrant Violation' This refusal, Makarios' letter added, is "a flagrant violation of the treaty" which is therefore terminated. Cyprus radio said Makarios' note was delivered to the Turkish ambassador in Nicosia. A Turkish embassy spokesman stated, how- ever, that the ambassador, Dr. Mahzar Ozkol, refused to accept the note. The treaty abrogated unilater- ally by Makarios was one of three international agreements based on the Zurich and London agree- ments of 1958 and 1959 under which Cyprus, which then was a British colony, gained her condi- tional independence. The treaty alliance which was signed by the governments of Greece, Turkey and Cyprus gave the two neighboring states the the right to base army contingents permanently on the island. Hold, Ridge , Turks, armed and ready, were holding the strategic Galifudez Ridge last night after a day-long battle in which they inflicted heavy punishment on the Greek Cypriots. The entire western part of the island is an armed camp as Greek and Turk faced each other in the tiny mountain hamlets and coas- tal villages. The battle of Galifudez Ridge, which separates a Turkish town of 500 from the Greek village of Pahy Amos with about 400 popu- lation, officially started yesterday morning but in reality it began weeks ago. Control Important The thousand-foot-high ridge overlooks both Kokkina and Pahy Amos-and whoever controls it can inflict punishment on his neighbor. The battle was on as Makarios. ended the treaty which permitted Turkey to keep soldiers here. The Turks claimed that Greeks climbed the ridge yesterday and. began firing on the Turkish vil- lage. The Greek allege the oppo- site, saying Turks began firing on their village. Under Fire The United Nations say nearby Kokkina came under fire for more than five hours until Turks climb- ed the ridge and pushed the Greeks off. In the course of the battle one Greek was killed and six injured. No Turkish casualties were re- ported. British UN troops moved in be- tween both sides and a three man truce patrol flew in by helicopter to try to halt the fighting. NICOSIA (P) - President Archbishop Makarios yesterday de- nounced Cyprus' treaty of alliance with Turkey. He wrote Turkish Premier Ismet Inou that the ,treaty could no longer be considered valid since the Turkish army, stationed in Cyprus under the treaty's terms, had defied requests to return to its perma- nent base. The Turks have been encamped in the Turkish quarter of Nicosia since violence erupted at'- 'Doctors Say MacA rthur' 'Near .Death WASHINGTON (P)-Gen. Doug- las MacArthur, gripped in a deep- ening coma, was in ominous straits yesterday but was described as resting quietly. Army doctors said that his vital functions-such as heart beat, blood pressure and breathing - were becoming increasingly diffi- cult to sustain. Earlier, they said his liver had ceased to function. Only a miracle could save him, the doctors said. Ironically, a long - standing smoldering ailment of the liver, which surgeons hoped they had halted by the first of his three major operations, now is the full- blown malady that is the principal threat to the life of the 84-year- old general of the army. But a veritable constellation of conditions poses odds against the fight for life of the man whose will tolive and strength and fiber have inspired his doctors. The functioning of his liver virtually has stopped, and the, functioning of all his, other ma- jor vital systems, including his battle-tested heart, is becoming increasingly difficult to sustain. The Army's Surgeon General Leonard D. Heaton's rather detail- ed account of MacArthur's appar- ently mortal combat was made more poignant by this: His story of how the hero of the Philippines-in the short-lived convalescence following his first operation-kept his doctors spell- bound with his recited, memories of war experiences dating back to Flanders fields of World War I. Heaton's report on MacArthur's comatose condition marked the first time any of his doctors had, met personally with reporters since MacArthur's first operation on March 6. The surgeon general, accompan- ied by two other key figures in the case, stressed that their com- ing to talk to reporters yesterday testified to the gravity of Mac- Arthur's condition. "Will he live?" was the first question asked after Heaton had read a prepared medical bulletin. Heaton hesitated for a moment, and then-"Well ... let's just say that this is an ominous report." But later, in answer to the ques- tion, "Is there any possibility of recovery?" Heaton replied: "Miracles always happen." I DEAN RUSK Proxmire Sees GOP Vote Plot, For Wisconsin WASHINGTON (M) - Sen. Wil- liam Proxmire (D-Wis) Predicted yesterday many Republicans will strike at President Lyndon B. Johnson by voting for Alabama, Gov. George C. Wallace in Wis- consin's presidential p r i m a r y Tuesday. Proxmire said that Wallace, a segregationist spokesman, is like- ly to benefit from "a gross mis- understanding of the mild and moderate civil rights bill" now be- fore the Senate. Republicans, who have no con- test in their own party primary, are permitted by Wisconsin law to cross over to vote in the Demo- cratic primary. In this race Wal- lace is opposing Wisconsin Gov. John W. Reynolds, running as a favorite son in "support of John- son.., Wisconsin Results National politicians will be watching the Wisconsin' results; more for their possible bearing on the civil rights issue than on any affect on the virtual certainty that Johnson will be the Democratic presidential nominee. Proxmire said local elections and a hot state supreme court race will "bring more Republican conservative-inclined voters to the polls" than usual. "But the real advantage Wal-. lace is counting on is that 98 per cent of the Wisconsin voters are white," Proxmire said. "He is con- vinced that this appeal to white superiority and white interests will CLAIMS ARMY VIOLATIONS: Makarios Cancels Turkish Treat The developments in both Bra- zil and Panama were regarded here as blows to Communist ambitions in Latin America. Stresses Concern Johnson stressed that the Unit- ed States is much concerned with the "serious problems" of this hemisphere. He said the United States is doing everything it can to deal with these "ancient ene- mies of mankind-disease and il- literacy." r "We are encouraged by the de- velopments in Panama," Johnson declared. Johnson was told that there had been some indications of possible. moves toward relations with Castro' Cuba after a speech made last' week by Sen. J. William Fulbright (D-Ark), advocating a new look at various foreign policy issues. "The administration does not share his view with regard to Panama or with regard to Cuba," Johnson said. ISMET INONU ELECTION: Ann Arbor, Set To Vot Tomorrow By LEONARD PRATT Ann Arbor voters will go to ti polls tomorrow to select five ne City Council members and to vo on three amendments to the A Arbor City Charter. The principle charter amen ment is one which would redu the size of Ann Arbor's prese "dry island."'

Bothti the ward's council seats are pry ently occupied by Democrats. Open Mind Republican Fred Tower, a Fir Ward resident for 15 years, say "I feel I can give improved re resentation to all the people of t First Ward. I do feel, howeve that one must look on both sid with an open mind and not pre determine a question until one satisfied that all the facts a in evidence." Mrs. Burns said it was impo: tant that she remain on the con cil, because, "a councilman cs expect to make a greater co tribution during a second ten since so much of the first.term an investment in education the innumberable phases of ci1 government."

Niehuss last night denied a report that he has charged Michigan State University with practicing "academic pitchmanship" in recruiting National Merit Scholars. "I haven't made any statement on that subject at all," Niehuss asserted. The report, published and broadcast in Detroit, quoted him as claiming that MSU is "offering direct financial support" to potential " Merit Scholars in order to attract them to East Lansing. The report said Niehuss declared that the University would never use such methods because "it waters down rts Arenal our academic standards." The, story was datelined East Lansing. 'I haven't been in East p .; .-Lansing in over a month," Niehuss ' said. The report also said that Na- tional Merit Scholarship Corpora- tion President John M. Stalnaker characterized Niehuss' remarks as "sour grapes." MSU, by financing scholarships through the NMSC, attracted 198 Merit Scholars last year. The Uni- versity, which finances no Merit scholarships, had 29 M e r i t Scholars. 'I By TOM WEINBERG After almost a year of projecting and politicking, the Plant Expansion Committee of the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics has finally come up with a site for the new field house. Dean Stephen H. Spurr of the natural resources school, chairman of the committee explains that the site, on Stadium Boulevard adjacent to the Michigan Stadium, was the only possible choice. "If we want to have it ready in time for the 1965-66 season, it has to be on land which we now own," Dean Spurr says. Three Criteria The three criteria on which the five proposed sites for building were judged were-adequate room for parking, good enough soil conditions to support the foundation of such a large structure, and how much trouble would be caused by displacing the present facilities on the site. The site on Stadium Blvd. was the one which proved most Salinger Still To Talk Here .......... "' '. n .. ... i ri:i , ...: :... :.. .-.. .... .:... ft:...::.x Y.
