LXXIV, No. 161 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, APRIL 28, 1964 SEVEN CENTS EIGHT PAG Tobacco Firms Establish Code Plans To Restrict Advertising Aimed at Youth, NEW YORK (MP-The nation's cigarette makers said yesterday they have agreed on an advertis- ing code stating that ads will "not represent that cigarette smoking is essential to social prominence, distinction, success or sexual at- traction." Banned by the code are testi- monials from athletes, celebrities or anyone "who might have spe- cial appeal to persons under 21." The code also ends the distri- bution of free sample cigarettes to anyone under 21 and promotion of cigarette smoking on school or college campuses, including ad-, vertising. To Name Administrator The companies, represented by. the Tobacco Institute, said an ad- ministrator to enforce the code will be named soon. All advertis- ing must be first submitted to him for approval. The code, which must be cleared by the Department of Justice for compliance with anti-trust laws will apply to all cigarette adver- tising, the announcement said. Several provisions of the code cover statements about the effect of filter tips and the removal of substances from cigarette smoke as relates to the smoker's health. Health Criteria No statements can be made un- less they are "significant in terms of health and based on adequate, relevant and valid scientific data,' the code states. The administrator may name scientific advisory panels, if nes- essary. The code states that cigarette advertising shall not appear on television and radio programs or in publications that are directed prirxarily to persons under 21, or in spot announcements during, or immediately before or after such programs. ; Persons shown smoking in ads shall be at. least 25, the code states, and "shall not be dressed or otherwise made to appear to be less than 25 years of age." The provisions applies also to draw- ings. The code bans pictures of per- sons "smoking in an exaggerated manner." Selection i The code does not spell out how the administrator will be chosen although it was expected the nine companies of the Tobacco Insti- tute would select him. The code says he must not be an employe of any tobacco manu- facturer or have a financial in- terest in any such firm. Fines for violation of the code 'may reach $1 0,000. The administrator is to de ermine when violations occur and the amount of the fine. Hear- ings can be held for violators. The code came 3/2, months after the United States Surgeon Gen- eral's report that smoking con- stitutes a hazard to health. Concerning the widespread use of athletes to sell sigarettes, the code states:' Well Known "Cigarette advertising shall not depict as a smoker any person well known as being, on having been, an athlete. "Cigarette smoking shall not depict as a smoker any person participating in, or obviously hav- ing just participated in, physical activity requiring stamina or ath- - letic conditioning beyond that e I normal recreation. of Two Housing Amendments By LEONARD PRATT Two p r o p o s e d amendments w h i c h w o u l d considerably strengthen Ann Arbor's Fair Hous- ing Ordinance were recommended for adoption by the Human Re- lations Commission in a meeting last Sunday. They will now go before the City Council for final action. Hu- man Relations Director David Cowley said that Sunday's meet- ing was too late to allow the amendments to be put on last night's council agenda. They will be included in council business next week, he noted. Commercial Space The first amendment has been spoken of -as the "commercial space" amendment. It would pro- vide for equal consideration for Negroes who wish to sell or rent space for commercial purposes. Mrs. Eunice Burns, Democratic representative from Ann Arbor's First Ward, is sponsoring the amendment. The second, "boarding house" amendment, would extend the au- thority of the Fair Housing Ordi- nance to cover more boarding houses than are now under its authority. Definition Initially, problems arose over the desired definition of "boarding house." Recommendations from University law professors and City Attorney Jacob Fahrner cleared; the matter up, however. University Vice-President for Student Affairs James A. Lewis originally requested action on the second amendment. He has ex- pressed action on the second amendment. He has expressed con- cern to Ann Arbor's City Coun-; cil that Negro University students were being discriminated against in local apartments. None of' the parties concerned would make any predictions on the probable fate of the amend- ments once they are presented to the City Council. "Testimonials from athletes or celebrities in the entertainment world, or testimonials from other persons who, in the judgment of the administrator, would have spe- cial appeal to the persons under 21 years of age, shall not be used in cigarette advertising:" Health Effect It is left to the administrator to determine whether references to filters imply that they have an effect on health. If he judges they do, then he must rule on whether the references are significant and based on valid scientific data. The code also states that ref- erences to the removal of sub- stances from cigarette smoke may be made only if the administrator determines that it is medically significant and scientifically val- id or that the ad disclaims that the removal of the substances has Pollster Sees 'Support for Rights Bill WASHINGTON (A'}-Nationwide support for the, administration's civil rights bill, has increased steadily the past six months and is 'now much more than 2 to 1, pollster Lou Harris reported yes- terday. The Harris poll showed that 70 per cent of those questioned fav- ored the Kennedy-Johnson civil rights bill in April compared with 63'per cent last November and 68 per cent last February. ~At, the same, time support for the bill's section that would pro- hibit ,discrimination in public ac- commodations was running 62 per cent with 27 per cent opposed and 11 per cent undecided, the poll showed. Among white Southerners, it was noted 24 per cent favored the section, 69 per cent opposed it and 7 )per cent were undecided. But: on the question of limit- ing the civil rights debate in the Senate even white Southerners were slightly in favor. Nationwide, 63 per, cent favored limiting de- bate while 24 opposed it. The re- mainder in both categories were undecided. Asked to rate President Lyndon B. Johnson's handling of the civil rigl ts bill, 67 per cent nationwide termed it positive, 33 per cent negative. Among white Southern- rs Johnson scored 61 per cent positive, 39 per cent negative. Among Negroes the rating was 77 per cent positive 23 per cent neg- ative.. Johnson Turns Down New Plan WASHINGTON tom)-A Nothern Republican's proposal that Presi- dent Lyndon B. Johnson meet with congressional leaders and re- vise the stalled civil rights bill was dropped yesterday when it ran into administration resistance. The suggestion that Johnson take a hand in trying to settle the controversy came after South- ern opponents of the measure slammed the door on any early votes. Sen. George D. Aiken (R-Vt) told the Senate that the bill, now in its eighth week of debate, con- tains some "outstanding weak-a nesses." "President Johnson must know that continued insistence on pass- ing the bill identically as it came from the House will likely result in killing the legislation," he said. Examine Michigras In~cidents.. By JOHN BRYANT Investigation of the disturbance at the Michigras carnival Satur- day is continuing both by the Ann Arbor police and by the Univer- sity. However, neither have reached final conclusions as to who was responsible for the incident or exactly what the circumstances were surrounding it. Vice-President for Student Af- fairs James A. Lewis stated his office is gathering information on. the incident but has reached no conclusions yet. Procedure Lewis said, however, that if Uni- versity students were found to be responsible for the disturbance, they would be dealt with through "ordinary channels." Ann Arbor police have pressed no charges as yet and are holding no one in connection with the in- cident. According to police, the dis- turbance stemmed from a Friday incident in which a Negro Youth drew a knife on a white youth after being ejected from a party. Meet Again The pair met again Saturday at the carnival, apparently by chance according to police, and when the white youth struck the Negro in the face and a general melee en-, sued. Massachusetts 0v Vote PENNSYLVANIA: RIghts Protests Dot Country Measure Removes, Arraign DAC Pickets for 'obstruction' Four members of the Direct Ac- tion Committee, charged with un- lawfully obstructing an Ann Ar- bor police officer, were arraigned in circuit court yesterday. The four, participants in a picket demonstration several weeks ago at Ann Arbor City Hall, stood mute to the charges and were freed individually on $100 bond. David Barnard, Phyliss Erfurt, Martha Mason and Judy Weiss- man appeared before Judge, Wil- liam F. Ager, Jr. and remained silent, allowing their temporary counsel, Eugene Smith of Detroit, to carry on all the court inter- actions. Judge Ager set May 1 as the date for the trial. Members of DAC stated that Milton Henry, a Pontiac lawyer, will serve as their defense lawyer at that time. Henry, who acted in the defense of the other DAC pickets tried last week, was un- able to be present for the arraign- ment yesterday due to previously scheduled court engagements in the 'Detroit area.' Winners Here are the awards for the booths and floats at the Michi- gras festivities-last weekends Scott-Elliott took first place in floats with "This is the Year that Will Be," and Zeta Beta Tau and Kappa Alpha Theta teamed up to capture the first place show booth tro- phy with "That Was the World That Was." The skill booth trophy went to Cooley and Newberry for "Midnight Zone," while "Dino's Den" took honors in the re- freshment booth category for Zeta Tal Alpha and Phi Kappa Tau. Ticket sales trophies also went to "That Was the World That Was" and "Dino's Len," while Chi Psi and Alpha Chi Omega took the trophy in this skill booth category for "Gun- smoke." In show booths, Sigma Alpha Mu and Alpha Epsilon Phi took second with "Mac the Knife" and Tau Delta Phi-Phi Sigma Sigma third with "Late Min- utes."' Sigma Alpha Mu-Alpha Ep- silon Phi took second in floats with "Let Michivision Put You in the Driver's Seat," and But- ler-Van Tyne's "Slaves of the Tube" took third. "Michi- Mouse Club" from Delta Chi- Stockwell was judged most orig- inal. Other skill booth awards went to Pi Lambda Phi-Sigma Kappa for "Everglades," which was second, and Alpha Gamma Delta-Theta Delta Chi took third with "Riverboat Gamble." Alpha Sigma Phi-Kappa Del- ta's "Hawaiian Eye" took sec- ond in refreshment booths and Hunt-Taylor's "Hare House" took third. "The disturbance was in no sense a race riot," the police spokesman asserted. Michigras general co-chairman Rogert Rogers, '65, said that his committee did not close the car- nival early. "At the request of the' police department, members of our committee began asking peo- ple to leave the area. However, the rides and booths were about to close anyway." By The Associated Press CHESTER, Pa.-The Pennsyl- vania Human Relations Commis- sion, with the approval of Gov. William W. Scranton who inter- vened personally in violence- marked civil rights demonstra- tions here, decided yesterday to hold public hearings into alleged de facto segregation in the city's public schools. , After a five and one half hour meeting in nearby Philadelphia, Harry Boyer, chairman of the commission announced that three days of hearings will begin at 10 a.m. Wednesday at the Pennsyl- vania Military College here. Earlier yesterday, in an atmos- phere of outward calm, Chester High School and two vocational schools were reopened. They and the' city's 15 junior high and grade schols were closed for two days last week because of civil rights demonstrations. Demonstrations In Nashville, club-swinging po- licemen broke up anti-segregation demonstrations by Negro teen- agers and arrested 10 students yesterday. About 150 students took part in Nashville's first sizeable dem- onstrations since May, 1963, at which time most restaurants, ho- tels, theaters and other public fa- clities- were desegregated. The Mayor's Council on Human Re- lations met to consider the dem- onstrators' complaints. Lester McKinnie, chairman of the Nashville Student Non-Vio- lent Coordinating Committee said the students were demonstrating for more job.opportunities, a local public accommodations ordinance and complete desegregation of schools. Church Integration The Southern Presbyterian Church meeting in Montreat, N.C., yesterday ordered integra- tion of its still-segregated presby- teries in seven states. It also voted to stay with the National Coun- cil of Churches. There are 4000 Presbyterian churches with 937,000 members in 16 Southeastern and Southwest- ern states. Only 12 churches in the area have white and Negro members now, but many others have an open policy of admitting Negroes, should they apply for membership. The integration order connects 43 Negro churches with a mem- bership of 2,560 with the all-white presbyteries-or church courts- in North Carolina, South Caro- lina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. The order does not necessarily affect individual- , congregations but it calls for administrative ab- sorption of three all-Negro pres- byteries by white presbyteries. General Conference In Pittsburgh a minister and a lay leader called on the Meth- odist Church yesterday to rid it- self of racial .segregation as the church began a general confer- ence. Of the 13 million Methodists, about 375,000 are United States Negroes who are under a separate arm of the church called the Cen- tral Jurisdiction. Walkout The Puerto Rican 10-member delegation joined forces yesterday with New York in a walkout over segregation at the annual conven- tion in New Orleans of the Adju- tants General Association of the United States.' The integration issue was in- jected into the convention when the New York delegation pulled out two days ago because a Negro member was refused a room at the hotel convention site. In Washington the Supreme Court agreed to rule on the valid- ity of Florida laws banning Negro and white persons of the opposite sex getting married or living to- gether unmarried. An appeal by Dewey McLaugh- lin, described as a Negro, and Connie Hoffman. a white woman, said Alabama, Arkansas, Louisi- ana, Nevada, North Dakota and rennessee have similar laws for- bidding interracial occupancy of the same room. The pair was arrested in Miami Beach in February, 1962 and each was sentenced to 30 days in jail and $150 fine. Forbid Marriage Their appeal asked "whether a state can forbid parties from con- tracting a lawful marriage within the state because of their race, and then convict the same parties for entering into 'unlawful' co- habitation." The pair contended that Florida punishes Negroes and whites who engage in certain conduct togeth- er but does not forbid such con- duct by Negroes only or whites only." Florida, the appeal said, "punishes an activity only if and because it is interracial." The National Association for the Advancement of Colored Peo- ple filed a brief on behalf of the couple. Hospital Disruption What police described as a row- dy crowd of Negroes disrupted ac- tivities at Central Receiving Hos- pital yesterday in Los Angeles aft- ', >uer assertedly following ambulances from the scene of a traffic acci- dent in which five persons were, injured. Thedfracas was the latest in a series of recent flareups involv- ing traffic officers and Negroes in the city. State YD's Oppose Seats ForMississippi Dixert Plai. h __ _ _ _ By ROBERT SEWLA Special To The Daily DETROIT-Opposition to seat- ing of the Mississippi Dixiecrat delegation at the Democratic -Na- tional Convention has developed in Michigan. The Michigan Young Democrats at their annual convention last weekend expressed this opposition by passing by a 16-1 vote a reso- lution on the matter. The resolution urges that the' Freedom Party delegation be seated instead of the regular Dem- ocratic Party delegation. The Freedom Party is a civil rights or- ganization that collected 80,000 unofficial votes in the 1963 gub- ernatorial race in Mississippi.. Re-Alignment Supporters of the resolution noted that seating of the Free- dom Party offers an opportunity for re-alignment of the Demo- cratic Party. They explained that if civil rightists are seated instead of Dixiecrats, the Democratic Party could change its image in the South. Sheriff Nabs 111 from MSU In Beer Raid CORUNNA (P)-A total of 111 Michigan State University stu- dents,' including both men and women, were arrested at a beer drinking party in a Shiawassee County woods on the weekend. Vowing he wouldn't stand for such goings-on, Sheriff Clifford Porter warned yesterday he would conduct a raid "every night if necessary" to stop a practice which he said began two weeks ago. No Joke "I'm not joking," Porter said. The students, who were inclin- ed to treat the incident lightly, were rounded up by a force of about 30 officers led 'by Porter Saturday night. Porter said he and his men responded to a farmer's complaint about the party. The students had kegs of beer.j The resolution's backers also argued that the Dixiecrats should not be seated because of their, opposition to Demicratic Party; candidates for President in 1948, 1956 and 1960. That resolution and 13 others passed by the MYD resolutions committee, will go to the MYD executive board for final action at its next meeting. Four other reso- lutions passed by the committee reached the general assembly of the MYD convention and were passed. Alaska Aid These four supported aid to Alaska, the tax cut and enactment :f a comprehensive medicare pro- gram, and voiced opposition to state "right to work" laws. David Vaughn, '66, was elected MYD treasurer. Vaughn is a former chairman of the Univer- sity's Young Democrats. Other officers elected -were: president, Jordan Rossen; first vice-chairman, Charles Rogers; second vice - chairman, Stephan Dobkowski; secretary, Susan Mon- tecello; national committeewoman, Janice Pettee; and Women's Fed- eration representative, Lois St. Aubin. Rossen was elected without opposition for a second term. Former Michigan Gov. G. Men- nen Williams addressed the meet- ing, warning the 200 delegates that the United States can de- stroy itself just as easily by racial conflict as by nuclear war. "We have to achieve good race rela- tions both in the United States and throughout the world," he de- 3lared. Meeting after Williams' speech, the resolutions committee voted to support the civil rights bill now before Congress. The committee defeated a resolution urging re- vision of the bill so as to delete provisions permitting discrimin- ation against athiests and Com- munists. Sees Initiative By Vietnamese BAC LIEU, South Viet Nam (P) --In what was shaping up as a major test of strength, Vietnam- ese soldiers inched forward under Communist mnrtar fire on the Ca party Ballot Lesinski Plan Misses Senate Liquor Group In Sidetracking Move LANSING - A bill to abolish Michigan's familiar state party ticket was shoved through the House on its second try last night. The hotly disputed proposal was approved on a 57-46 vote as two Republican lawmakers that help- ed defeat it last Friday fell back into line. However, the so-called "Massa- chusetts ballot" faces a hazy fu- ture in the Senate today. House Republican leaders said they were hopeful the ballot bill could be used as leverage to gain Senate acceptance of congression- al redistricting plan already ap- proved by the House. Uncertain House Speaker Allison Green (R-Kingston) and elections com- mittee chairman Russell Strange (R-Clare) said they frankly did not know how much backing the bill would have in the Senate. In order to pass, the bill pre- sumably would have to attract from a coalition of 10 Democrats and 10 Republicans. The coali- tion succeeded last week in pass- ing a congressional reapportion- ment plan. Revival of the measure in the House sparked long-winded de- bate which divided that chamber along partisan lines and brought Democratic charges that Green was making the rules up as he went along. Supports Higgins Meanwhile, in the Senate, Lt. Gov. T. John Lesinski came with- in a few votes of sending the House-approved congressional dis- tricting bill -to the Senate Com- mittee on Liquor Control. ALLISON GREEN YOUTH, LABOR NEEDS:, Woodcock Calls for Increase in Public Spending By ROSALIE BAINE "The American people m u st overcome their prejudice against untraditional public investment in such things as schools and slum improvements," Leonard Wood- cock, vice-president of United reason, support by the federal government will be needed, he said.
