I1 THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRIDAY, JANUARY 24. 1964 1ISARMAMENT SYMPOSIUM: Soviet Accuses West of Stalling ENGINEERING COLLEGE: LSA To Vote on Plan To Issue Joint Degree By LOUISE LIND The West's lack of genuine de- sire to scrap their entire machin- ery of war constitutes "the main obstacle" to general and com- plete disarmament, a Soviet offi- c1al said yesterday. Yuli M. Verontsov, counselor and advisor on political affairs of the Soviet Union's mission to the United Nations, said that despite the Western attitude, "the Soviet Union and; all Soviet people are dletermined to continue the strug- gle for general and complete dis- armament, and no obstacles will divert us from this path." Addressing the Second Inter- national Arms Control and Dis- -armament Symposium, which .concludes its four day session in Ann Arbor today, Verontsov was .revealing "The Position of the Soviet Union on the Problems of .Disarmament." Compares Terms Verontsov explained that the stand taken by the United States and Britain at the Geneva talks, over measures of general and complete disarmament. The Soviet Union "cannot ac- cept the demand that this con- trol be carried out not over dis- armament but over armaments, which would in fact put control, before disarmament," Verontsov said. He told the symposium that the. lack of a real desire on the part of Western powers speedily to reach disarmament "fully ac- counts for the difficulties which ' Oa r~in~lc7nra+AI rnini ha are arwificialuy created around tn cormpared with the position of the e sispr l trol." ~A~~t ~nin ~~rl~,t~v '~o~1it problem of control." countries, "shows who wants dis- armament and who fears it."s Noting that the Soviet Union has submitted a draft treaty on general and complete disarma- ment under strict international control; Verontsov called the1 United States plan "a general out- line of disarmament proposing ex- tremely prudent, I would even say cautious, steps which in the fin- al outcome by no means lead to, a really complete and general dis- armament." He cited four areas where he claimed the Soviet plan proposed more rapid or more substantiall steps toward disarmament than those proposed in the American plan. These were: 1) An unconditional prohibition of the nuclear manufactures and the appeal for destruction of all stockpiles of nuclear weapons. No Prohibition "The Western powers, on the' other hand, do not in their plan provide for prohibition of the use; of atomic weapons," he said. 2) Destruction of the means for delivery of nuclear weapons to- gether with the liquidation of mil- itary bases on foreign territory. The Western powers, he claimed, wished to see a delay in obtain- ing these two objectives. 3) Completion of the process of general and complete disarma- ment within four or five years. "The West does not lay down any' time limit for measures of general and complete disarmament," Ver- ontsov added. 4) Strict international control Calling the control problem a favorite debating subject giving rise to a kind of "control schol- astics," Verontsov compared the discussions now being held on, arms control to those formerly held "in the remote times" about the number of devils that could fit on the point of a needle. Ado over Control "That much ado raised about the problem of control clearly pre- vents many people in the world from, hearing a very important proposition eliminating all argu- ments about control," he said. The reference was to Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev's offer to accept any disarmament control devised by the Western powers if they, in turn, accepted the Soviet disarmapent plan. Acknowledging that while gen- eral and .-complete disarmament is the primary. goal of the Soviet Union, Verontsov claimed that the USSR considers it important to strive, at the same time, to adopt measures conducive to a relaxa- tion of international tension. "Life itself dictates the need for such measures which would bring an end to the armaments race." He cites as one method of re- ducing international tension a non-aggression pact between the NATO countries and the coun- tries of the Warsaw Treaty, "pro- posed many times by the Soviet Union." Another means of relaxing ten- sion would be an agreement to prevent the further dissemina- tion of nuclear weapons, he said. By MARILYN KORAL The literary college executive committee Wednesday will vote on a proposed joint degree pro- gram with the engineering col- lege, Assistant Dean Buxton Thu- ma said yesterday. The program, if passed, will en- able engineering students to take both an engineering degree and a literary college degree with a ma- jor from any department within the literary college. Previously civil and mechanical engineers participated in a joint program, but "this did not include very many students," Assistant Dean Arlen R. Hellwarth of the engineering college explained. The new program will make it possible for more students to take work in liberal arts. Major Choices Depending on the choice of ma- jor, the number of credits requir- ed for graduation with a joint de- gree will vary between 155 and 182. For example, because of the amount of math, physics and chemistry necessary to fulfill en- gineering requirements, a student choosing a major in these fields would have to take fewer extra hours in the literary college than if he majored in a field alien from engineering requirements, Prof. Oleg Grabar of the art his- tory department explained. Prof. Grabar chairs the curriculum committee which approved the proposal before it went to the executive board. The basic courses in engineer- ing will have to be taken by un- derclassmen, so the majority of other distribution requirements DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN The Daily Official Bulletin is an official publication of the Uni- versity of Michigan for which the Michigan Daily assumes no edi- torial responsibility.

OLEG GRABAR will be fulfilled in the student'' upperclass years, Prof. Grabar noted. Answers Employer Demand Prof. Grabar said the program would be useful because of. a re- cent trend toward employer de- mand for students who have hac both an engineering, and liberal arts educational background. In order to be admitted to th proposed combined program, it will be recommended that a stu- dent have a 2.4 overall grade point average for his first thirty hours of elections. Also, to be permitted to work for the two degrees, a stu- dent would have to satisfy the rules of both colleges for good scholastic standing. JAN. 30,31 - FEB. I JAMES E. LESCH Lescb Notes 'U' Strides For Eco'nomy James A. Lesch, assistant to the vice-president for academic af- fairs, noted Tuesday that the Uni- versity is taking strides to coordi- nate its role in the state drive to improve Michigan's economy. Under James Wilson, acting di- rector of the Institute of Science and Technology and Hansford Farris of the engineering college, an advisory- committee is being formed to channel all future pro- posals to spur the state economy with state funds. The state Legislature in 1962 apportioned $750,000 for state col- lege research projects designed to aid the economy. Submits Nine Proposals The University; to date, hAs submitted -nine- prbosals for re- search projects to the state. Three. have been approved by. the eco-. nomic expansion department and Gov.George Romney's office. The University awaits final ap- proval from. the Legislature in or- der to receive $125,000 in support of the projects. Rep. Gilbert Bursley (R-Ann Arbor) introduced a . resolution Tuesday that would enable the University to receive the neces- sary funds. _ -., University Role Speaking of the proposed Uni- versity advisory committee, Lesch said the group would work in con- junction with the industrial divi- sion of the IST and would prob- ably .attenpt to formulate a con- cept . of the University's role in the drive to boost the state econ- omy. He claimed an advisory body would .unify many separate re- search projects into a coordinated program. Such a body, he said, would be composed of members of the Uni- versity's Institute for Social Re- search,.economics department and the business administration and engineering schools. ,l e t t Astronomical Colloquium: 4 p.m., Room 807, Physics-Astronomy Bldg.

As further 'acki ign fdr his views, Vallodi noted that Thant had em- phasized the need for the nations of the world to go further along the road toward international co- operation before even vocal-back- ing can be given to such a per- manent international force. Very important in this . cooperation, Vallodi said, is the "development of sophisticated international opinion with the changing of thinking frot nationalist to in- ternationalist lines." Velodi also gave attention to the role of the UN in disarmament negotiations. His main concern in this area was that the United States and the USSR seem often to be bypassing the. UN when ne- gotiating over disarmament, and acting on a largely bilateral basis. He pointed to the continuing dis- armament talks at Geneva, which are conducted outside the frame- work of the UN, as an example. Power and Responsibility "The UN has both the power and the responsibility to take a vital piart in these neotiations." One need only look at the UN charter and the past actions of the UN to substantiate this claim, he explained. Vellodi also voiced concern over recent proposals to establish an entirely new international organ- ization to take over the peace- keeping function of the UN, leav- ing the UN as merely a forum for international debate and negotia- tion. The grounds for this proposal are that the task of international peacekeeping has grown too wide- spread and complex to be dealt withdas merely one ofbseveral functions of an international peacekeeping organization, he said. Not a Solution "This proposal is not a good idea or a solution to any of the prob- lems the UN has encountered in its operations.hPeacekeeping-the maintenance of international peace and order-is the principle function of and the main reason for the establishment of, the UN. What is needed is not an aban- donment of the UN in this area, but removal of its weaknesses and the strengthening of its strong points. Any new agency will run into the same problems the UN has encountered." Vellodi noted a statement from the late Secretary-General of the UN Dag Hammarskjold that "The difficulties the United Nations has encountered in peacekeeping ;op- erations have been a result of the realities of life and not of defects in its charter'."
