Issue of Great Britain This issue, and the question of whether Britain should be invited to sit on current political negotia- tions, deadlocked the foreign ministers of the six countries held last month in Paris.

To Meet Again However, the six ministers will mneet again next week in Brussels as part of negotiations with Lon- don on Britain's possible entry into may then be able to resume ta.ks on the political issue. In negotiations thus far, France', West Germany and Italy, with support from Luxembourg, have held out for a loose confederation, short of European union.

This would be pat- terned after the existing steel-coal pool and the Common Market, where decisions are made by a majority vote. ADA ejects Southern Move As 'Vindictive' WASHINGTON (AP)-Americans feo Dmocratic Action yestra A and callous the sending of Negroes to the North with one-way tickets by segregationist7 groups in the The liberal organization's new national chairman, John P. Roche, chairman of the politics depart- ment at Brandeis University, is- sued a statement which said.:' "The Citizens' Councils of New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Little Rock and Montgomery who are shipping --or preparing to ship-human be- ings out of the South have reached the height of vindictiveness. ADA viewg with abhorrence these ac- tions of the Councils and their eploitation of human beinngs for tions.. "The fact that these travelers may, in the long run, lead fuller and better lives because of their move does not diminish the sordid- ness of the act of the Citizens Councils. For them to use fellow humani beings as pawns in their own fight against civil rights is the most base form of callousness " Roche called for the full utli- ization of fair housing ordinances, low income housing programs and the recently enacted Federal re- training program to help in the "slto of the economic and social problems resulting from the uner. migration of Southern Ne- pship on the basis of race or color; or on the basis of religion or na- tional origin, unless such a criter- ion is judged, by an appropriate of the organiation and is coss tent with the goals of the univer- sity." Define NSA Functions The presidents, expressing con- fidence that NSA can advance the welfare of college students, also stated that they believe, "the pri- mar'y function of NSA 'is to pro- vide worthwhile service programs on the local, regional, national and iernational levies.". The resolution said, however, that NSA's service function need not detract from its vital but over- emphasized task of expressing student opinion. "It is our intention to re-evalu- ate periedlically our participation in NSA," the resolution coneluded. Discrimination Exchange The presidents also approved a plan to exchange Information on discrimination policies, student services, the student's role in pol- icy making, recognition of student organizations, student judiciaries, policies on women's hours and NSA services. Student body presidents attend- ing the conference were Michael Donovan Indiana University: Mark Schantz, State University of Iowa; 3Robert Howard, Michigan State University; Norman Uphoff, University of Minnesota; James Gross, Ohio State University; Her- bert Louk, Purdue University; and Steve Stockmeyer, '63. Two Sessions ' They met along with other dele- gates in the morning to discuss several topics of student concern. In the afternoon, they held a closed session during which the resolutions were passed, while the rest of the delegates continued discussions in another room. In the morning session, there was a consensus that, in most cases, regulation of speakers and speeches is detrimental to an aca- demic community and ought to be eliminated. Two delegates pointed out that their schools, Minnesota and SUI, have no policy limiting those who' tnay speak at the institution. Speaker Bans At OSU, Gross said, a civil lib- erties union speaker was sched- uled, but the president postponed the speech {Indefinitely. Student government is protesting this ac- tion, and the faculty has set a meeting with a vice-president to discuss the issue. Turning to another area, all of the delegates supported in theory a plan whereby a student paying in-state fees at one Big Ten insti- tution would be able to spend his junior year at another school in the Big Ten without having to pay a higher tuition. Exchange of stu- dents would be reciprocal. This would reduce the economic barrier facing students who wish to attend another school for a year to take specialized courses in in theirs field of concentration or wish to take classes from cer- tamn professors. GOV. JOHN B. SWAINSON ...attacks Republicans DETROIT (P)-Vowing to expose what he termed "the disgraceful Republican record of obstruction- ism and reaction,'' Gov. John B. Swainson declared formally last night his intention to seek re- election this year. - Swainson's decision, which had been anticipated, was announce d in a fiery Jefferson-Jackson Day speech in which he told a gather- ing of Michigan Democrats: "The record proves that the GOP (in Michigan) has been and is today a cabal of unreconstructed reactionaries, a band of economic freebooters, wvhich has throttled progress, cut into the vitals of democracy in Michigan and chok- ed every constructive effort to solve the problems facing us." Swainson said .he did not know what the product of the state's current constitutional convention will be, but added: "I would like to go on record at this time to assert that if the convention does not produce a just and fair reapportionment of our state legislative districts, I will do all in my power to see to ft that the document is rejected by the people of Michigan. "I would do this reluctantly, but I would do it in the knowledge that unless we return government to the voters, we will have avoided the crucial challenge facing us. Anticipate Vote OnFinal Draft Of Constitution LANSING -Co Co dele- gates are expected to take their final vote on the proposed com- pleted document Friday and mi- nority Democrats may object to its approval. . The convention will begins the third reading of the proposed doc- ument's 12 articies tomorrow and plan to spend three days on it. The draft will be sent Thursday to a Styles and Drafting Commit- tee for rewriting third reading changes into the document. Democrats failing to get provi- sion for separate approval of sec- tions by voters accepted by the convention may be forced to vote against the entire document Fri- day. The convention hopes to adjourn until Aug. 1 when they will re- convene for a formal session. "Delegates have done a ter- rific job," Con-con president Ste- phen Nisbet commented. "They have devoted considerable time and effort and have come up with a good constitution."

Dennison.Ahriy Since the submarines will re- main under United States coin- mand, their assignment to NATO duties will not run afoul of the United States law which vests solely in the president authority for handling and use of nuclear weapons. The United States pledged to put its entire Atlantic fleet of Polaris submarines at the disposal ofl NATO as they are commissioned. The United States will build 41 Polaris submarines, most of them for duty in the Atlantic. The Polaris offer bolstered American appeals for the Western allies to beef up their conven- tional ground forces, which the United States considers an essen- tial part of any deterrent force. The Polaris missile is a com- plete weapons system designed to deliver a nuclear warhead to a target several thousand miles away from a submerged submarine. The possible introduction of this weapons system to the NATO bases caused much concern and demonstrations among B r i t i s h pacifists.

But things weren't as simple as that sounds for former Pres- ident Alexander Grant Ruth- yen. Now 80 and living on his farm just outside Ann Arbor, President Ruthven took office during 1929 in the midst of a faculty feud over former Pre~si- dent Clarence Cook Little's pro- posed University college. That was to be the least of his worries. A depression, a war, a post- war enrollment boom and the When President Little re- signed, the Regents had no need of committees or long -search- ing for a successor; on Oct. 4, 1929, the Regents unanimously selected Ruthven. P RE SI DE NT Ruthven handled the faculty dispute simply and diplomatically; he turned it back to the faculty for further consideration of the university college's advis- ability and administration.
