Jo- seph Mobutu said yesterday a team of his officers has opened negotiations with the rebel Stan- leyville regime's army that could lead to a military settlement in the Congo. Premier Joseph Ileo indicated at the same time he is not hopeful' of a political settlement soon be- tween Leopoldville and Stanley- Ville. Mobutu, the army commander, refused to commit himself on the possibility of direct talks with rebel army commander Qen. Vic- tor Lundula, but he said he had WREEM AMMAN964STANNOMM-10""' A WAMA V.. Diversity Key To Goebel's "Life (EDITOR'S NOTE-This is the third of four profiles of the Demo- cratic and Republican candidates for the University's Board of Re- gents. The statewide election for the two open posts will be held April 3.) By MICHAEL BURNS Diversity has been the key to Paul G. Goebel's life. Earning a, degree in mechanical engineering from the University in 1922, Goebel turned his proficiency as a football player to a professional career on the gridiron. Using the money from his brief athletic employment, he opened a sporting goods store in Grand Rapids in 1926 instead of entering the engineer- ing field. Since that time he has also been actively engaged in politics as a Republican. Goebel believes the present state appropriations for the University are inadequate. This inadequacy must be made up by the state "and possibly from private grants." He is wary, of federal aid as the solution to the lack of funds. But "on a matching basis, some federal aid might be in order," he admits. Effective Aid "I feel that President John F. Kennedy's proposal of federal aid to education would be effective in aiding the University, but this same aid could be secured at the state level with less cost to the taxpayers of this state. "In both cases the burden must be shared by the same taxpayers. For every dollar we taxpayers of this 'state hand over to Lansing, we receive one dollar's worth of education. "However, for every dollar in taxes we taxpayers of Michi- gan hand over to Washington, we receive in Michigan con- siderably less than one dollar's worth of education." The tall, white-haired ex-captain' of the football team does not look to student tuition increases for more monies. "Student tuition charges are about what they should be," Goe- bel explaihs. Oppose State Scholarships. He is cool to the idea of state scholarships, endorsed by Gov. John B. Swainson, "In view of the fact that present annual state appropriations to state colleges and universities are inadequate, this is not the time to initiate a state program of scholarships." Goebel, who as an undergraduate won the Big 'Ten medal for proficiency in both athletics and scholarship, still retains the impressive figure of an athlete. He is one of several can-, didates backed br a newly-formed non-partisan organization of former state college athletes interested in electing other college athletes to state office. By a stroke of coincidence, the Republicans have nominated two 1922 graduates of the University's mechanical engineering department with Goebel and James C. Zeder as 'unning mates. "The University's most pressing need is to provide the faculty and the necessary physical facilities to accomodate, See REPUBLICAN, Page 2 given his word "there will be no aggression from my side." He told a news conference the rebels claimed to have withdrawn their troops in Oriental Province 100 miles from the tense border of Equator Province and asked him to do the same to prevent clashes. He said he refused, adding: "I am not willing to withdraw my forces. For I have more pru- dence after what the Gizengists did at Luluabourg." Stanleyville troops 'based in Oriental Province attacked Lu- luabourg, in the southern Congo, after the United Nations assured the rebel leader, Antoine Gizen- ga, that he need not fear a Mo- butu invasion from the west. Negotiation Team Mobutu said he sent a negotiat- ing team headed by Lt. Col. Louis Boboso to meet Tuesday with a delegation of 12 officers from Lundula's camp. They met near the Oriental-Equator border, he said, but he gave no details of what transpired. Ileo told the newsmen little progress is being made toward a political 'settlement with Gizenga. "I have been trying to work out these problems with Cleophas Ka- mitatu," he said. Leopoldville President Kamitatu is the president of Leopoldville Province and a col- league of Gizenga who has been trying to negotiate with the Stan- leyville regime. Mobutu read a communique drawn up after a three-day meet- ing with military representatives of independent Katanga and South Kasai They agreed on cpncrete com- mon action against internal sub- version and interference by the United Nations in Congolese do- mestic affairs, Mobutu said. He emphasized the three states would resist UN attempts to disarm the Congolese armies. To Present Tax Plans WASHINGTON () - President John F. Kennedy's new tax pro- gram is expected to be presented to Congress soon-probably next week-with the central provision a system of tax credits to spur busi- ness. There has also been speculation he would recommend withholding taxes on income from interest and dividends. No details of the tax message have been officially disclosed but Kennedy has made quite clear his concern over the need to mod- ernize American industrial plants to keep them competitive in world markets. In a speech before the National Industrial Conference Board here Feb. 13 he said he planned a tax incentive program to accomplish this;- And last Monday:Stanley S. Surrey, a Treasury Department of- ficial, indicated the PresidentI would propose a tax incentive plan, retroactive to March 1.. Surrey, assistant secretary for tax policy, told the tax executives institute the greatest stimulation would come from tax credits to companies that invested more in new plant facilities than they had in the past, say a base period cov- ering at least five years. Area Bill Approved By House WASHINGTON (a) - Adminis- tration forces yesterday defeated a Republican counter-attack and carried through the House Presi- dent John F. Kennedy's plan to rejuvenate areas hit hard by the recession. First they pushed aside a Re- publican effort to cut the dollar value of the program from the $394 million favored by Kennedy to $275 million. Then they passed the bill by a vote of 250-167. On the final roll call 207 Democrats and 43 Republicans supported the 'meas- ure, while 42 Democrats and 125 Republicans opposed it. Senate Passage The Senate already has passed a depressed areas bill with the same dollar volume of grants and loans but with a different method of financing-one very likely to bring another battle before both chambers agree on a program. The House bill would require the $300 million provided for job- stimulating loans to go through the usual Congressional process of appropriating money. The Senate version permits what critics call backdoor finan- cing, or obtaining necessary funds through Treasury advances. Pro- ponents of the administration bill were able to defeat a move to sub- stitute appropriations for ad- vances by a shaky 49-45 margin. No Thought The House gave little or no thought to Treasury advances. Sen. Paul H. Douglas '(D-Ill) on the other hand, said neither he nor the administration wants the appropriations procedure in this case. Douglas steered the adminis- tration bill through the Senate and would be its chief advocate in trying to settle differences with the House.f As of now, at least, the adminis- tration leads 3-1 in its major con-. tests of the session. Kennedy's tentative victory on depressed, areas followed triumphs with job- less pay legislation and enlarging the House rules committeeto, overcome possible frustration by a Republican-Southern Democratic, coalition. Opponents of the depressed areas bill argued it would raise false hopes, but administration spokesmen insisted it would help establish or revive industries in the coal regions of Pennsylvania, West Virginia and other places especially tormented by unemploy- ment. Both House and Senate bills would authorize $300 million in loans divided evenly for three pur- poses-plants and facilities in in- dustrial areas, the same in rural areas and for such public projects as water systems to make it pos- sible for new enterprises to locate in either industrial or rural sec- tions.

By PAT GOLDEN Richard Nohl, '62BAd, won the presidency of Student Government Council last night on the third round of balloting. Nohl and Per Hanson, '62, tied for the post on two ballots, but a one-vote margin on the third gave the post to Nohl. Hanson was sub- sequently elected by acclamation to a second term as executive vice- president. Also by acclamaton, the Council designated John Martin, '62, ad- ministrative vice-president, and William Gleason, '63, treasurer. Three Proxies Three proxy ballots were cast in the first round of the presidental race. Two were for Brian Glick, '62, who had not been nominated for the office. A motion by Roger Seasonwen, '61, allowing student organizations to file statements of compliance with University regulations in place of membershp lists each semester passed with one dissent- ing vote. The new regulation requires stu- dent organizations to submit at the beginnng of each term either a membership list or a statement containing the following informa- tion: Name List 1) The names of prospective members who wish to be listed. 2) A statement to the effect that at least 20 University students are members of the group. 3) The total number of mem- bers and a breakdown on the number of student and non-stu- dent members. In introducing the motion sev- eral weeks ago, Seasonwein com- mented, "We are all aware of a climate of fear in this country brought on by widespread use of the tactic of guilt by association.. "The real menace is the national atttude which tends too often to accept guilt on circumstantial evi- dence. As I see it, one way we can combat this, and protect our stu- dent body from it, is to uphold the student's right to belong to an organization without making it public." New Procedure In order to follow the new pro- cedure, an organization must re- quest SGC's permission.- Hanson explained that formerly the Coun- cil could have taken exception to University regulations to grant special permission for an organi- zation not to submit a membership list. This would have required a two-thirds margin to pass while; the new ruling takes .only a ma- jority for permission. Any group which chooses to sub- mit a statement must be prepared to submit a full membership list on University request. The motion further stipulates that "as 'soon as such lists are no longer neces- sary for the enforcement of Uni- versity regulations applicable to student organizations they shall be returned to the organizations.'% Francis Gives' College Data Tro Co mmittee SACRAMENTOW (-Republican Assemblyman Louis Francis said yesterday he has turned over in- formation on subversion in Cali- fornia's colleges to the House.Com- mittee on Un-American Activi- ties.

Sargent Shriver told the National Conference on Youth Service Abroad yesterday that the peace corps' objectives could be summed up in a few sentences. "We are trying to tap the reservoir -of skilled manpower and womanpower in the United States. "This will demonstrate to the world that America is what it has always been in its best moments-a country where all men are created free and equal." He de-emphasized the role of the corps as a "soapbox" for democracy, saying that "we're not going to get involved in political ' questions. However, we hope that Amendment Gives Vote To Residents of Washington WASHINGTON (R)-Citizens of the nation's capital were en- dowed yesterday with what they have been seeking for a century or more-the right to vote in national elections. Just 13 minutes elapsed between ratifications by the 37th and 38th states of the -23rd Amendment to the Constitution allowing per- manent residents of the District of Columbia to vote for President and Vice-President. The New Hampshire House approved at 1 p.m. EST with" a sprinkling of "no" votes.

Orbiting satellites would sweep as far as 30,000 miles above the earth or even circle around the sun, United States Delegate Ar- thur H. Dean said. He outlined the program to the three-power conference on sus- pension of nuclear weapon tests. See Related Story, Page 3 Peace Corps members will be able to have rational intelligent discus- sions" on the subject. At a press conference after Shriver's dinner speech, Thomas H. E. Quimby, in charge of the selection of corps members, said that he would not select members until requests from other countries started to come in. These requests would then be' compared with the questionnaires filled out by prospective members. Written and oral testing would follow this. Approximately 500 persons gath- ered at American University yes- terday for the three-day confer- ence sponsored by the, United States National Students Associa- tion. They will discuss the purposes and objectives of the corps, the selection and training of members, and the methods of control, organ- ization and administration. The last point includes such questions Haber Predicts Six Per Cent Unemployed By PHHJP SHERMAN Prof. William Haber of the economics department yesterday predicted a possible six per cent unemployment rate at year's end, whether or not the nation's econo- my has recovered from the present recession. He called for public and pri- vate measures to ensure a vigor- ous economic growth rate to re- duce this long-term unemploy- ment which could extend well into the 'Sixties and suggested as a prerequisite that the "primary focus of the economy" be shift- ed from price stability to growth. At the Industrial Relations Conference, sponsored by the In- stitute of Labor and Industrial Relations, Prof. Haber saw three growth is insufficient to do away with both the recession and dis- tressed-area technological unem- ployments, he argued. Because of its fear of inflation, the nation has accepted low growth and unemployment, but if this continues the economy will emerge from the present reces- sion with a substantial body of unemployment and carry it into the 'sixties. Priority Placement Prof. Haber suggested "we put the priority in the right place" and step up the growth rate. He minimized the danger of infla- tion as compared to that of unem- ployment. The economic caution being shown by Kennedy is in response to this overwhelming public sen- The government should vigor- ously push job-creating measures, despite the inflationary dangers of budget deficits, to reduce the "normal" five per cent unemploy- ment rate to a more acceptable two-to-three per cent. There are two alternative solu- tions to the distressed areas prob- lem: inducements for people to leave the areas and attraction of new industries. The former is dif- ficult to achieve, Prof. Haber said, as Kennedy's proposal rec- ognizes. Attraction of new indus- try will take time, however. . No Problem Technological unemployment will be no problem at all if the economy is growing adequately in periods of substantial dislocation. Accommodation to technologi- necessary state to act, was quick- ly summoned and the state's rati- fication followed. Permits Vote The amendment, submitted by Congress last June, ;will permit residents of Washington, D.C. who do not cast absentee ballots in states where they claim a legal home, to vote for president for the first time in 1964. The district will have 3 elector- al votes, the minimum now allow- ed the six least populous states. The amendment does not grant statehood, although some of its opponents said it was a step in that direction. Neither does it change the local form of govern- ment, which is administered by three commissioners appointed by the President, with Congress en- acting its laws. Kennedy Speaks President John F.
