L3l Britain Joins Effort For Peace in Cyprus Talk with UN Peacemaker on Ideas For Pacification, Reunification LONDON (P)-British leaders today joined United Nations peacemaker Sakari Tuomioja in his quest for a long-term plan to pacify and reunite the divided people of Cyprus. But hours of talk, which ranged over a variety of ideas for a settlement, were adjourned inconclusively. It was learned, however, that if all else fails the British will support partition of the island's Greek and Turkish communities. Tuomitoja's talks with Commonwealth Relations Secretary Dun- can Sandys and Deputy Foreign Minister Lord Carrington are rounding off the reconnaissance he has undertaken in five capitals.

IN HARLEM: Proposes Educational Parks - $'" Grants $44 Million i Congressmen Hear Views On Prayer WASHINGTON (M) - Wide- ranging views were given to a congressional hearing today con- sidering whether, the Constitution should be amended to guarantee the, right to pray in public schools. Churchmen, educators and spokesmen for public groups ap- peared before the House judiciary committee. They applauded or de- plored efforts to have the Con- stitution amended to overcome the Supreme Court's rulings against official prayers and required Bible reading in school. A rabbi and a Presbyterian min- ister said daily, routine prayers, particularly if they are "nonsec- tarian," actually are harmful to the religious spirit of children. Support Amendment " A Roman Catholic priest and a high school teacher-accompanied by some of his students-made fervent pleas for a prayer amend- ment. They said the overwhelming majority of the American people support them. Rabbi Irwin M. Blank, of Tena- fly, N.J., speaking for the Syna- gogue Council of America, said a truly nonsectarian prayer, such as advocates of an amendment call " for, would be impossible to com- pose, and even If it were, he added: "Such a prayer would necessar- ily be so devoid of any real spiri- tual content that it would come dangerously close to irreverence and blasphemy." The priest, Rev. Robert G. Howes of Washington, D.C., speak- ing for the Massachunsetts citi- zens for public prayer, called the campaign for the amendment "a truly wonderful thing" he said church leaders who oppose it are IJ isolated from their followers. Hershey Cites Problems of Ending Draft WASHINGTON (P) - Lt. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, Selective Service director, said yesterday he believes there must be a considerable change in the international cli- mate before the United States can end the draft. "We have got to get this nation and the world to the place where mutual fear is tremendously dif- ferent from now," Hershey said in an interview. Last month President Lyndon B. Johnson announced plans for "a very comprehensive study of the draft system and of related manpower studies." Voluntary Basis? ? The study, Johnson explained, would "cinsider alternatives to the present draft selection system, in- cluding the possibility of meeting our requirements on an entirely voluntary basis within a decade." There have been complaints that the draft system is unfair. Because the pool of eligible young men exceeds the need, some are called while others are excused. The President said he was not predicting the military manpower requirements could be met on a voluntary basis in the next decade but that the study "looks forward to that." Doubts Emphasizing this point, Hershey said he personally has "very def- inite doubts" military require- ments can be met without some form of compulsion unless they are reduced to "little short of a Greeks and Turks in Athens and Ankara and UN Secretary-General U Thant during a Paris visit. Without in any way committing himself to a single course of ac- tion, Tuomioja neverthelessgave Sandys and Carrington several views. Among them: -There is almost no chance of restoring Cyprus, politically or militarily, to the state of affairs that preceded the flare up last Christmas. r-Themprocess of bringing the contenders together will be pains- taking and long and the islanders are going to be hurt at times. All concerned are going to have to recognize the old Cypriot constitu- tion, underwritten by Britain, Greece, Turkey, is a dead letter. -All parties in the dispute share the view the hostile com- munities of the island must be sorted out if Cyprus is to live in secure peace again. Turkish Cyp- riots and Turks favor some sort of partition within a federal framework. Greek and Greek Cypriots would back a transfer of the Turkish- speaking minority to Turkey. This would clear the way for a Cypriot- Greek union (Enosis). The British would support par- tition if allselse fails. Sandys and Carrington made no proposals of their own.

Officers in the field said they were prepared .to return fire if bullets endangered women or children in the villages where the UN has set up posts.r SNCC Leader Slightly Haurt in Racial Scuffle NASHVILLE (P)-Three or four Negro demonstrators, including a national civil rights leader, suffer- ed minor injuries yesterday in a series of scuffles in front of a seg- regated Nashville restaurant. The racial outbreak, held in check by police, marked the fifth day of demonstrating here this week, mostly by Negro youths. Leaders said they were seeking to make this "an open city." John Lewis, chairman of the national Student Non-Violent Co- ordinating Committee, was struck in the mouth by an unidentified white youth. And a Negro demon- strator was kicked and taken by ambulance to a hospital. No ar- rests were made. Lewis was one of rnearly 100 ar- rested earlier this week. He was charged with contributing to the delinquency of rinors by persuad- ing them to stay away from school and join the demonstrations. GILBERT E. BURSLEY U' May Get New Rocket Launch Site The University may have a rocket-launching site of its own on the Keweenaw Peninsula in upper Michigan, if a summer test program proves the concept fea- sible. Government and industrial re- search grants paved the way for' establishing the site. The Univer- sity presently uses government fa-j cilities at Wallops Island, Va., toI launch rockets for its high-alti- tude meteorological studies. The last link in the chain of contributions that made the Ke- weenaw site possible came Thurs- day when the Legislature freed $52,000 from a state research pro- jects fund for operations expendi- tures of the project. Rep. Gilbert E. Bursley (R-Ann Arbor) introduced the resolution to release the funds. Bureau Pledge Previously thehUnited States Weather Bureau had pledged five Arcus rockets, tracking equipment and additional funds, and an in- dustrial concern donated 203 acres for the launch site. The state funds put the rocket launch program out of the plan- ning and into the implementation stage. University officials connect- ed with the program expressed hope that the test this summer will demonstate the feasibility of permanently u s i n g Keweenaw Peninsula as a research launch site. Private Funds The rocket-firing study will use $52,850 from the state, $66,000 f r o m private businesses and $112,500 in federal funds, making a total expenditure of $277,350. The Keweenaw rocket launch range looms over Lake Superior and remains entirely within U.S. territory. If established on a permanent basis the site might ultimately be used by other federal agencies and would have "a tremendous im- pact on the economic and scien- tific life of the Upper Peninsula," Bursley noted. By JOHN WEILER < The concept of educational parks is one attempt to break up the ghettos of Harlem and pro- vide the basis for integration, Tom Kahn of the Congress of Racial Equality said last night. He noted that the result would be a combination of educational parks and urban renewal with mixed public and cooperative housing. Once the Negroes and whites are mixed economically true inte- gration will be one step closer, he added. Subsidy Kahn commented that the plan provides for the government, eith- er local or federal, to subsidize the lower income families in this area enough so they would be able to pay the rent, Kahn emphasized that the com- plex would be a neighborhood, with housing built around the park - very much like a campus. He added that the park could provide special services such as residential programg in English and mathematics. Further, it would have recreational facilities, and would incorporate all the technical advances that are avail- able such as closed circuit tele- vision for classes. Best Personnel Kahn suggested that the class- room teacher to student ratio would be about 15 to one and that the personnel would be the best available. "If this were done, then the white parents would want to get their children into the parks." Kahn cautioned if this is not done, Negroes will continue to be the poor in New York's Harlem area and integration will not be advanced. Kahn commented that the con- cept of the educational park orig- inated with Mel Wulff of New York CORE., Discrimination At GM Denied In a letter to Detroit-area civil, business and religious leaders, General Motors yesterday issued a blanket denial of discrimination' in its hiring practices.

Geoi Romney's higher education appropriation bills intact 1a night. The University will get $44 million in operating budj funds and $5.4 million for capital outlay expenditures.

CivilRights Issue The civil rights movement has come to! a point where it must have a "political movement" for it to continue with the impetus that has carried it thus far.

The $300,0001 was originally set for remodeling East Medical Bldg. The House Ways and Means Com- mittee eliminated allocation for the project because the money would not be used until construc- tion of Medical Science Bldg., unit II, is completed two years from now. The question of out-of-state stu- dents has haunted budget requests in recent years. Yesterday the is- sue was brought in the open. Limit Attempt Representatives William Roma- no (D-Warren) and Carroll C. Newton (R-Delton) attempted to amend the operating budget bill to require that each state college or university reduce its out-of-state enrollment by 10 per cent next year or suffer a cut of $250,000 in its operating budget appropria- tion. The amendment was defeated 60-40. The state spends about $18 mil- lion in support of out-of-state stu- dents, Newton asserted earlier this week. He said an enrollment of not more than 15 per cent out- of-state students at each institu- tion was a desirable situation. Percentaces About 29 per cent of the Uni- versity's students are not Michi- gan residents. Michigan Tech- rnological University-Houghton has about 27 per cent and Michigan State University has about 19 per cent out-of+'-state students, enroll- ed. The other colleges and univer- sities are below the 15 per cent level. Requesting defeat of the out-of- state amendment. Rep. Gilbert E Bursley (R-Ann Arbor) asked the House to wait for the renort of the "blue ribbon" Citizens' Com- mittee on Higher Education this summer. He said the State Board of Education should be allowed to act on it. Bursley cited the need of main- taining a cosmonolitan atmosnherp at universities: he also pointed out that out-of-state enrollment at the University has decreased from last year's level of 32 per cent to 29 per cent this year. He indicated he was pleased that the non-resident issue was finally brought to test-especially since ISenate To: Act Soon On Rights WASHINGTON (P)-The Senal was told yesterday it could expec next Wednesday to start voting it way out of a thickening tangle c proposed jury trial amendment to the civil rights bill.
