LXXIV, No. 168 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, WEDNESDAY, MAY 6, 1964 SEVEN CENTS EIGHT PAG Welsh Tops Wallace In Hoosier Prmary Taft, Young Win with Ease in Ohio; Wilkenson Takes Oklaohma Race By The Associated Press WASHINGTON--Indiana, Ohio and Oklahoma topped the list of statewide primaries across the nation yesterday, and their results were hardly surprising. In the Hoosier State, Democrat Gov. Matthew Welsh topped Alabama Gov. Georg Wallace by a 2-1 margin for the state's Demo- crat convention votes. Vote totals at 1 a.m. this morning gave Welsh "268,827 votes to Wallace's 122,638, Ramsey Cites GOP Cross The showing for Alabama Gov. George Wallace in the Indiana presidential primary yesterday was caused by a 10 per cent shift in voters from the Republican side to the Democrat side, Andrew Ramsey, chairman of the Indiana State Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People indicated last night. M a n y Republicans, thinking that Goldwater would win any- way, switched their votes to show their disfavor of the administra- tion, he added. Ramsey said that if Goldwater did not have the voter strength he did, Wallace would have done even better. But he noted that one impor- tant reason Wallace did not gain more than 30 per cent of the votes was that he was strongly opposed by "religious and responsible leaders of the state." The Polish American voters in Lake County were "peeved with the discrimination in the Demo- crat administration" and this would have given added votes to Wallace, he concluded. with about three-fourths of the state's 4416 precincts reported. Also in Indiana, Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona slid to an easy victory for the GOP presi- dential votes over former Min- nesota Gov. Harold Stassen. At 1 a.m., Goldwater showed 199,107 votes to Stassen's 77,324. In Ohio, Rep. Robert Taft, Jr., swamped his opposition to win the GOP senatorial nomination. At 1 a.m. totals stood at 222,386 for Taft and 68,251 for his opponent Secretary of State Ted W. Brown. In the Democrat race, incumbent Sen. Stephen M. Young polled 163,667 to 76,625 for astronaut John Glenn and about 20,000 votes scattered. In Oklahoma, with three-fourths of the state counted, former Okla- homa University football coach Bud Wilkenson was winning the GOP senatorial nomination in a landslide. At 1 a.m. EST, he had 75,962 votes, to a combined 20,000 for his opposition. In the Democrat Senate race, in- cumbent Sen. J. Harold Edmund- son appeared to have won over two strong challengers: Edmund- son: 154,864; State Sen. Fred Har- ris, 140,323; and former Gov. Ray- mond Gary 138,852. On the right to work question, it is still close, with 284,563 favoring passage of the act and 292,599' against. Time LANSING (AP) - Having fallen " one vote short of passage in the climax to a wild, marathon leg- islative session, House plans for redistricting awaited new biparti- san talks today. House Republican l e a d e r s, meanwhile, were discussing the possibility of nominating candi- dates for the Legislature - and possibly for Congress - at party conventions. Speaker of the House Allison Green (R-Kingston) raised this as one possible alternative after a scheme for postponing the Aug. 4 primary-the key to a delicately- balanced series of maneuvers - failed to come to a vote in the Senate. No Reason "I see no reason now to try to change the primary date," Green said. "There is the possibility that we could nominate our candidates at the conventions and simply for- get about the primary as far as they are concerned." Green indicated there will be no rush to revive the redistricting plan. It failed to pass on a 55-25 vote at 2:05 a.m. yesterday, bring- ing an end to the hectic session. No Rush "We can put it over for a week if we have to," said the speaker. "There's no rush now, with the primary postponement apparent- ly out of the question." The districting bill was defeat- ed in the climax to the wildest day of the entire 1964 session in the House. Democrats staged a midnight walkout in the House after stalling out the clock to help destroy GOP hopes for a final adjournment at noon yesterday. Republicans had passed a resolution for that pur- pose to the Senate, where Demo- crats killed it. Runs Out 4 The districting plan, written by a 14-member bipartisan negotiat- ing committee, was designed to give both parties an even break in an election. Each would have 52 "safe" districts and the other six "swing" districts that could go either way. Its passage had been predicted by backers in both parties. But it lost chiefly for lack of Demo- crat support in the showdown vote. Following a series of caucuses, first by one party and then by the other, House Republicans brought the redistricting plan to debate. No Cooperation But Democrats used the device of requiring all amendments to be read in full to carry out the same strategy that their com- rades employed in the Senate. The minutes on the clock tick- ed off while the clerk droned through the long description of the 110 districts in the plan. At midnight, the House adjourn- ed and then reconvened at 12:01 a.m. to continue its consideration of legislation. But Democrats, led by House Minority Leader Joseph J. Kowalski (D-Detroit), staged their walkout. No Support A total of 24 of the 52 House Democrats left. But, with a "call of the House" in effect, a handful drifted back to remain on hand until the chamber recessed at 2:15 a.m. The Republicans now must win Democrat support to give imme- diate effect to a bill changing the primary election date. That takes a two-thirds vote in both the Sen- ate and the House. Otherwise the new law would take effect 90 days after final adjournment of the Legislature. No Time Without immediate effect, a bill shifting the primary to Septemb now would take effect after Au 4, the date the law now sets f the primary. Democrat strategists indicati they would be willing to supp votes needed for immediate effec But they made it plain they wou expect something in return. First of all they demanded a surance that the Massachuset ballot bill would never get Romney's desk. for August Primarj Legislature RestoresI Passes ' Budget MIlliot' 'otal to $50 H MASS RESIGNATION? Staff Split over, Dismissal By KENNETH WINTER Acting Managing Editor The Oakland Observer's student staff was reported split yesterday following the dismissal of the pa- per's editor on Monday. Acting Editor William Con- nellan reported last night that three other Observer staff mem- bers have resigned in protest against the dismissal of Wolfe Metzger from his post as editor. Metzger had called for a mass resignation after Oakland Univer- sity Chancellor Durward B. Var- ner fired him during a controversy over a survey of coeds' sexual ac- tivities. A meeting organized to protest Varner's action drew some 80 stu- dents. Diane Smith, organizer of the session, said no course of action was set but a straw vote indicated "only five sided with the university's action." Feikens Outlines Objectives Of Civil Rights Commission By BRUCE BIGELOW The predominant objective of the state Civil Rights Commission at present is the abolition of all forms of discrimination within the state, according to its commissioner John Feikens, former district judge and GOP state chairman In an address last night at St. Francis of Assissi Roman Catholic Church, Feikens said "our greatest challenge lies before us today. We must, as a commission, attempt to insert our initiative in all the broad areas of discrimination." Feikens particularly stressed the commission's role as a pioneer in social change. He emphasized that only by using the initiative power q.. can the commission really open up the doors to equal opportunity. Housing Complaints 'At present," he continued, "the .commission is mostly concerned with complaints concerning dis- crimination in multiple-housing units. But it will become increas- ingly concerned with all com- . } plaints submitted, especially those concerning alleged discrimination .. in single-room accommodations." Feikens pointed to his belief t h a t the present commission' structure is very competent to meet such considerations. "It seems to me that our greatest strength lies' in the bi-partisan :r<:;{ h;:. .......:: character of our commission. It is a great advantage to feel that JOHN FEIKENS suchrsocial problems as discrim- ination are being dealt with by an organization which is not biased along party lines." He explained that the state Civil Rights Commission was created by the new constitution. Appointments are made by the governor and are equally distributed along party lines. Four Democrats and four Republicans sit at all times on the commission. Separate Entity He further stressed the importance of the commission's separa- tion from the legislative branch of government. "The commission is entirely a constitutional body, and therefore we have the advantage of formulating our own policy decisions." She added that there were rum- ors that Varner had dismissed two Observer faculty advisors from their posts on the publications committee. The incident may lead to the first full investigation of a stu- dent-press-freedom controversy by the United States Student Press Association. Daily National Con- cerns Editor Philip Sutin, '64, and Joel Sharkey, national affairs vice- president of the United States National Student Association, will conduct a preliminary investiga- tion Friday. Sutin is a member of the USSPA committee which would launch a full inquiry-if one is undertaken. If a full-fledged investigation is launched, it could lead to censure action by the USSPA convention this summer. Interim Editor Connellan was named interim editor by a special faculty com- mittee set up by Varner to study the paper's organization. Connel- lan said one of the dilemmas in the current crisis has been the lack of any established procedure for considering dismissals of the student staff's members. Connellan asserted that he "sides with the university" for two reasons: The survey which sparked the controversy "was ridiculous. It was poorly conducted and was answer- ed in jest by a lot of students." As a paper subsidized by Oak- land, the Observer and its editors "have a responsibility which goes with this freedom." Upcoming Story Metzger had agreed not to print the survey results, but instead wrote a story telling of Varner's threat to expel him if the survey were printed. Learning of the forthcoming story charging him with censorship, Varner had that issue of the Observer destroyed and fired Metzger. Another Observer staff member, who had resigned when Metzger was appointed editor, was more emphatic in his denunciation of the fired editor. "In the 18 months I'd worked with him I had seen repeated instances of his irrespon- sibility which had gone entirely unchecked," senior Daniel Polsby declared. Sex Survey He said that the dismissed edi- tor had admitted privately that his sex survey "had no signifi- can " M"tzsre nranned in write a U.S., EEC Set Basis For Talks GENEVA (R)-The United States and the European Common Mar- ket agreed late last night to make a 50 per cent across-the-board tariff cut the working basis of the Kennedy round talks on free- ing world trade. The decision came at the end of a long day of backstage argument between officials of the two giants of world trade. They also agreed to set Sept. 10 as the deadline for submitting a list of items to be considered as exceptions to the general nego- tiating plan. The submission of these lists will mark the begin- ning of down-to-earth bargaining on tariff cuts. Britain went along with last night's agreement, which is vir- tually certain to be approved later today at a plenary session of the general agreement on tariffs and trade. In the American view-accepted by the Common Market-the final agreement must include agricul- tural products as well as indus- trial goods. Agricultural trade is not likely to be seriously discuss- ed in detail for over a year. The main negotiators of the compromise were W. Michael Blu- menthal of the United States and Robert Marjolin, vice-president of the European Market Commission. A high American source said there was an understanding be- tween the two sides that the Sept. 10 deadline for submission of ex- ception lists might be subject to review if no progress is made in the meantime on other details of the negotiating methods. The Americans at first wanted this reservation written into the text of the negotiators' report but finally agreed to leave it as an unwritten understanding. American officials said in any event no country is formally com- mitted to any action until the fin- al wrapup of the tariff cutting agreement is signed-possibly not before 1966. The Common Market agreed to remove a special reference to the particular relationship between it- self and former colonies in Af- rica of Common Market members. The Americans are generally op- posed to all special preference arrangements and consider this reference in the progress reports undesirable. SENATE LEADERS confer with Attorney General Robert F.

The first to be voted on is by Sen. Thruston rB. Morton (R-Ky) to provide jury trials under all provisions of the civil rights bill.

A "good deal of agreement" was reached, he said. Tomorrow's session,.he said, will be devoted to a smaller batch of amendments that are somewhat more controversial.

Celebrating its fifteenth anniversary, the contents of the 60-page magazine move from the humorous cover photo of a 1900 Daily staff to the sharp, sensitive portraits of Robert Frost. The quote from 'Amogos,' a Greek poem by Nikos Gatsos, speaks of the "multitudin- ous tokens' man bequeaths to his descendants. 'Tokens' in this issue include three well-crafted short stories, a hard-hitting essay in re- buttal of Frithjof Bergmann, and a wide selection of poetry from the last fifteen years of Generation.
