LXXIII, No. 115 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN SUNDAY, MARCH 3, 1963 SEVEN CENTS SIX PAGES Peru Junta Holds Crisis Parley LIMA (P)--Peru's military boss- es held an extraordinary session last night to deal with what junta leader Gen. Richardo Perez Godoy described as a crisis. "There is a crisis and the rea- sons will be revealed later," Perez Godoy told newsmen in the na- tional palace before returning to, the meeting. Perez Godoy would neither con- firm nor depy rumors that he was resigning because of a dispute among the 12 junta members over national elections set for June 9. He said as long as he is a mem- ber of the junta the elections will be held as scheduled "with all parties participating." However, it was understood PARTY UNITY: Barnett Wins Approval For Primary Proposal JACKSON M)-Ross Barnett's proposal for presidential primary elections won a smashing 101-12 House victory yesterday paving the way for states rights control of Mississippi's electors next year. The measure, which provides parties must hold primaries when two slates of electors are nominated, had passed 30-11 in the Senate Friday. Rep. L. L. McAllister, the state's first Republican legislator in four decades, said in the only opposition speech the big question was the purpose of the bill, which r had been described in the Senate D etails as a Hitler-like power grab by states righters. that powerful elements within the armed forces were pressing the junta to outlaw the leftist Apra Party of Victor Raul Haya de La Torre because of a grudge going back to the 1930's when the Apra Party was involved in a bloody clash with the army., Haya won a plurality but not the required majority in presi- dential elections last year which the military annulled in ousting the elected democratic regime of President Manuel Prado. The military gave as its reasons alleged fraud in the election. Critics accused the military bosses of trumping up the charges to block the possible election of Haya by congress, which was to have decided the presidency because the balloting was inconclusive. The United States held up rec- ognition of the military govern- ment until after it gave assurances that free elections would be held within a year and all democratic parties would be permitted to take part. Gen. Nicolas Lindley, Minister of War and one of four joint pres- idents of Peru's ruling junta, quit last night. Lindley gave no reason for his resignation. Lindley said the crisis was not connected in any way with the scheduled June 9 elections to re- place junta rule. "They will be held anyway," he said. He claimed support for his de- mand that Perez Godoy get out. "It is the opinion of the junta that Perez Godoy should quit," he said in an interview. "He has to go. All the armed forces want him out. If Perez Godoy does not resign the armed forces will take action " He gave no reason for his anger with Perez Godoy except to say it was "the way he was behaving." Congo Ends Secessionist Tribe Revolt BAKWANGA, The Congo (P) Congolese government troops have beaten down a secessionist revolt by the Mpuku Tribe, the "Rat People" of South Kasai, but vio- lence remains a constant threat in this diamond-rich province.

More than 60,000 are being fed by Cath- olic and Protestant relief organ- izations. No Official Count No official count has been made of those who died in the revolt or were slaughtered in reprisal raids by Congolese soldiers. Eric Packham, British head of United Nations Civilian Operations in Kasai, estimates 300 or 400 were killed. American missionaries put the death toll as high as 3000. Today UN Liberian troops were hunting down warriors still at large. Some 300 rebel prisoners have been handed over to the Congolese. Packham told newsmen some of the insurgents have modern auto- matic weapons. Most are armed with spears, machetes and home- made guns.

Erickson of Michigan State University last night defined Project X as "a continuous program of curriculum organization" and denied that it had been responsible for any fac- ulty resignations. "I don't know of any faculty resignations because of Project X," he said, despite the statement by Prof. Bernard Duffey that his decision to leave the university was "immediately motivated" by the project. Erickson said that the project contains "few specifics" and that,, contrary to resigning professors' criticisms, much of the program is left up to the faculty. "We just ask them to look at the problems of increased enrollment, research and faculty salaries and to work out the academic reorganization that will make these things pos- sible." However Prof. Duffey asserted that "it is frustrating for faculty members to feel that they aren't consulted about a major change in organization and curriculum," im- plying that the faculty was riot playing an extensive role in plan- nling the program. Erickson noted that the pro- gram has been under way for about two years and was not a sudden change in policy. Prof. Duffey and three other members of MSU's faculty who are resigning in the fall claimed that the handling of Project X, which is formally called the Educational Development Project, exemplified their reasons for leaving. One Party Control "It is obviously aimed at keep- ing Mississippi from becoming a two-party state," McAllister said in his first speech since election last month. Rep. Thompson McClellan, a co- author who handled the measure on the floor, retorted "Woe come that day. We'll be just like New York City and Chicago. We'll have control by minority groups." McClellan said the bill "was going to prevent us from dividing the Democrats of Mississippi (in the general election) ." No Primary NEW YORK (A)-Walter Hall- stein, president of the European Common Market Commission, yes- terday made a strong plea for Atlantic partnership in the "fore- seeable future" between America and a European Community that will "one day" include Britain. Hallstein rejected the idea of Europe as a "third force" between East and West and objected to proposals for an "Atlantic com- munity" in which a united Europe, as he put it, would one day be "dissolved." The third option of an Atlantic partnership, he said, is the "choice not only of Europe but also of the American government ... for -the foreseeable future, partnership re- mains our ideal." Talks with Kennedy Hallstein, who is leaving later tonight for Washington and talks with President Kennedy and top officials, addressed a select au- dience of nearly 1000 business and industry leaders and faculty mem-: bers at Columbia University. Some observers saw the speech as an attempt to pacify that part of the American public opinion which was dismayed by Britain's failure to get into .the Common Market. They felt Hallstein came here to "bury the hatchet" and chart a new course for the future. "In the first place we must resist the temptation to indulge in sterile recriminations," said Hallstein, who in the eyes of the British, at least, was next to French President Charles de Gaulle largely responsible for the break-up of the Brussels talks in January. No Comment "When the negotiations were suspended . . .it could not fairly be said either that they had al- ready failed on technical grounds or that they were already on the verge of success," Hallstein said.

The Republicans would have to pay the cost of a primary becausej state law requires a party poll one-third of the vote in the pre- ceding presidential race to qual- ify for state-financed primaries. Under the party primary bill, the state party conventions would meet after the national nominat- ing conventions and hear delegates report on candidates and plat- forms. Then the state conventions of either party would nominate presidential electors. Elector Slates Ten per cent of the delegates could nominate a slate of electors, permitting both conservative and loyalist factions to submit slates. Party primaries would then be held to determine which slate went on the ballot in the general elec- tion under the party label. The losers could still qualify a slate of electors by petition, but would not get the party symbol. Southern Schools Lose Ground in Fight By The Associated Press WASHINGTON-The South has lost ground during the past four years in its effort to catch up with the national average salaries paid to college faculties, according to a recent article in the Washington Post. According to a report by the So u t h e r n Regional Education Board in Atlanta, average salaries for professors in Southern colleges were $1122 less than the national average four years ago and are $1520 less than the national aver- age today. The report, "Financing Higher Education," notes that while salary levels in the South have increased 19 per cent for instruc- tors and 26 per cent for full pro- fessors during the period, salaries elsewhere rose 22 per cent for in- structors and 27 per cent for pro- fessors.. MICHIGAN PLACES SECOND: Iowa Captures Track. Crown By CHARLIE TOWLE MADISON-Iowa, sneaking up on co-favored Michigan and Wis- consin and running past them in the final event, Vthe record- smashing mile relay, captured the 53rd annual Big Ten Indoor Championship here yesterday. In so doing, the surprosing Iowa team amassed 43 points. Michigan placed second to the Hawkeyes with 41 points and ahead of Wis- consin in third place with 40. Going into the final race, however, it was the Badgers who had the lead with 38 points to Michigan's and Iowa's 35. This was after an afternoon of action that had al- ready seen six Big Ten Indoor records broken or tied. Must Win Relay At this point, for Michigan to take the meet it was necessary for the Wolverine trackmen to place ahead of the Iowa mile relay team while Iowa was, in turn, beating Wisconsin. Leading off for the cindermen was Dave Romain run- fing against Gary Richard for Iowa. After the first leg, it looked as if Michigan might be on. the verge of pulling off a finish that they needed. Romain passed the baton to Talt Malone ten yards in front of Scott Rocker, who was running the second leg for Iowa.' At this point in the race, Iowa and Michigan rapidly left the Wis- consin relay team behind, al- though it should be noted that Such budgetary facts of life rob the South of potentially good fac- ulties, the Board said, because young people in the region enter higher paying professions and those persons dedicated to teach- ing go to other parts of the nation where salaries are better. Southern institutions have chos-. Clams Story Misconstrued Winthrop College student gov- ernment president Mary Anne Garrison said last night that Fri- day's Associated Press story saying that the college was "ready to accept a Negro student" and that student statements to the press have to pass through the school's public relations office was incor- rect in its interpretation. The AP story said the South Carolina college for women had issued the statement on readiness after a story appeared in the Rock Hill Evening News quoting a num- ber of students as saying the col- lege was ready for such steps. Miss Garrison said it had always been the policy of the college to require press releases to pass through the public relations office. She said the Evening Herald had asked only three students about their opinions on whether the col- lege was prepared to admit a Negro. Because of this, the admin- istration, in agreement with the Student Senate, informally de- cided that it should be made clear to the press that in the future they indicate the number of stu- dents they had spoken with when reporting campus opinion. Charles Walters, news editor for the Evening Herald, said the News had polled over 20 students' opin- ions on the question. The only ex- planation he could offer for Miss Garrison's differing story was that only three of the students who had been asked their opinion stayed to have their picture taken. Look for UAR i Peace Gesture CAIRO (M-President Gamal Abdul Nasser of the United Arab, Republic is considering a phased withdrawal of some of the 23,000 U.A.R. troops in Yemen, informed sources reported yesterday. The informants said the action 4 may be taken as a gesture toward the current Middle East trip of United Nations Undersecretary 1 en to give proportionally more economicvrelief to instructors than professors, the report noted which means in effect that the region is making less effort to keep top quality and increase in- centives. Salary Reputation "A reputation for academic ex- cellence and relatively high sal- aries usually go together," the Board stated. "The South's failure to provide a greater spread between the sal- aries of instructors and full pro- fessors is made more serious by the large pay differences between the South and nation generally," the report stated. "The facts are inescapable," the Board said. "It takes more money to attract the best minds to Southern institutions, most of which are still striving to achieve national prestige. Grows Wider The Board noted that last year Duke University became the first Southern institution to receive a Grade "A" in faculty salaries as compiled by the American Asso- ciation of University Professors. Johns Hopkins, Florida Presby- terian College and the University of Virginia also have attained high levels according to the na- tional standard, it said. The Board was established in 1949 to help Southern states im- prove the quality of higher educa- tion. Member states are Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, F10 rid a, G e o r g i a, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Car- olina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia.

As of last night he had undergone surgery and was reported to be recovering in a Jackson, Mississippi hospital. The Federal Bureau of Investi- gation is currently conducting an investigation of the situation. So far it has been unable to identify any of the individuals involved in the shooting, Aaron Henry, head of the Mississippi branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, said yesterday. SNCC has been working on an intensive educational campaign in Laflore County for the past two months in an attempt to pave the way for its work in voter regis- tration. This weekend mnarks the end of the first seven days SNCC has been actively trying to get people to register. They will con- tinue to try to register people until late spring. Asked whether the shooting might make people in the county angry enough to overcome their fear of voting, SNCC worker in Laflore, Sam Block, said he thought it could have this effect. He pointed to an incident in Sun- flower County three months ago when two young women working on voter registration were shot at and injured.

India's government, claimant to all Kashmir and antagonist'of Red China in a border dispute of their own, lodged an immediate protest. Details of the pact-one of a series which Mao Tze-Tung's Communist regime has negotiated with various neighbors-were an- nounced here by a foreign minis- try spokesman of Pakistan, which is allied militarily with the West. Bhutto Signs Foreign Minister Zulfikar All Bhutto signed for Pakistan. Radio Peking quoted Bhutto as expressing a desire for a peaceful settlement of both the Kashmir and China-India disputes. On the Indian-Pakistani nego- tiations about Kashmir's future: "Our wish and prayer is, in the interests of peace in this subcon- tinent and peace in Asia, that this problem is settled by honorable and peaceful means." On the India-China border question: "I would like to appeal to the Indian government to enter into negotiations with the People's Republic of China to settle this problem, because this is the only means and the only way by which disputes can be settled." Pakistan Profit The spokesman implied Pakis- tan profited from the settlement, saying it gets control of six of the seven passes in the disputed area and 750 square miles more than it demanded. The Chinese had claimed 3400 square miles along the line from Karakoram Pass to the Pakistani- Afganistan boundary and in some areas occupied the ground, the spokesman said. Under the agree- ment, he said, China will control 2050 square miles of largely moun- tainous and uneconomic territo'y while Pakistan gets 1350 square miles of fertile land. Simultaneously a New China News Agency dispatch broadcast from Peking disclosed Afghanistan is next on the Chinese list. The dsipatch said Red China and Afghanistan have agreed to begin negotiations on a boundary treaty. It did not specify when. In Washington, t h e United States expressed concern today that a new Pakistan-Red China border agreement might endanger negotiations between Pakistan and India on a Kashmir settlement. The carefully-worded state de- partment comment sought to avoid giving offense either to Pakistan, a United States ally, or to India, which gets United States economic assistance. The signing of the Pakistan- Red China pact was disclosed to- day at Peking, Red China's capi- tal. Pakistan's foreign minister Bhutto arrived in Peking a few days ago. Since China attacked India over disputed mountain border areas the United States has been press- ing the Indian and Pakistan gov- ernments to compose their dif- ferences over the state of Kashmir. It wants them to build more friendly relations to help meet the Red Chinese threat. The United States argument is that in the long run both Pakis- tan and India are endangered by China. -- Pakistan has protested United States military help to India. In- dia more recently has objected to Pakistan's border treaty with China, contending it involves Kashmir territory India claims. In such controversies the United States is caught in the middle. The state department said it has not yet received a full report on the Peking pact "but on the basis of available information it would annear that theaereeament sibility trust." and increasing mutualI Mary Comnone By DEBORAH BEATTIE "Whether or not one is a real folk singer has become a debat- able question-like did Shake- speare actually write his plays," commented Mary of Peter, Paul and Mary after their performance last night. - The argument is mainly be- tween the ethnic camp and those who like singers such as Joan Baez and Bob Gibson.
