By The Assocated Press
GENEVA--Secretary of State Dean Rusk last night informed
other foreign ministers gathered in Geneva that the United States will
not begin negotiating on Laos today unless it receives proof of a firm
cease-fire.
It seemed unlikely that such evidence would be on hand by the
deadline,(9 a.m. EST), the hour at which the confusion-clouded con-
ference was scheduled to open.
The American delegation believed it might be waiting in Geneva
well into next week before the delegates sit down around the confer-

Judiciary
Sees Five
Over Raid
By JEFFREY HEUER
The Joint Judiciary Council last
night met to hear and consider
the cases of five male University
students involved in last week's
panty raid.
After hearing each of the con-
cerned parties, the body met late
last night and early this morning
to determine the violations and
the disciplinary measures to be
taken, Charles Gessner, 61E, chair-
man of Joint Judic, said last
night.
Any action taken in the cases
will notbeirevealed until the ive
have been notified of the Coun-
cil's decision, Gessner also dis-
closed. This may not be until
Saturday or Monday because the
students are being informed by
mail.
The council has the power to
place students on probation, but
more severe action, such as sus-
pension or expulsion, must be
made in the form of a recommen-
dation to the University Sub-
Committee on Discipline.
Such a decision may be appealed
within 24 hours of the party's
notification. The appeal must be
submitted to the sub-committee
in the form of a written brief,
Dean of Men Walter B. Rea said.
The sub-committee can then, if
the appeal is granted, review the
case itself or refer it back to
Joint Judic, Rea added. Two stu-
dents were suspended and subse-
quently reinstated as a result of
allegedly instigating and leading
last year's food riot-panty raid.
Gessner said that because the
five were discussed at the same
time did not mean that they would
receive identical penalties.
Professors
Read Poems
By MALINDA BERRY
The avant-garde element of the
University filled the Union Ball-
room last night for the "Faculty
Poetry Reading Hour."
That element was not out of
place either, for the poems pre-
sented represented the newest
ideas in poetry both in form and
content.
Joseph C. Kennedy, Prof. Don-
ald Hall, Prof. Sheridan Baker,
and Prof. James R. Squires of
the English Department read their
own works.
The topics ran the gamut from
a subtle slur on the architecture
of the Administration Building by
Hall to "Elegy for a Child's Skip
Rope" by Kennedy. Hall in his
piece aptly named "The Adminis-
tration Building" called it . "so
ugly as to need definition."
A presentation by Kennedy en-
titled "First Confession" recalled
to those in the audience the tur-
moil produced by a small child's
first experience with the confes-
sional. Kennedy mentioned theI
sensation of the world closing in
on the child as he confessed his
sins of lying, sloth, greed and
other nefarious childish evils,
Another poem by Kennedy,
which almost brought down the
walls of the ballroom was a satir-
ic narrative entitled "The Man in
the Man Made Moon." The pro-
tagonist of the poem, Bill, was the1
first man to give his life in a
man-made moon. Still he bravely
circled the earth, as "the couples
were lip to lip, by the light of a
full Bill."
But alas, poor Bill was doomed
to give his life for science at
his remains were delivered to his
ever-faithful love, Liz Bly, with1
the cheery words, "coffin lady?"
EMU
Plan.
Legislators
Seek Probe
of Colleges
By ROBERT FARRELL
Two legislators have issued a
statement that would call for in-
vestigations of any state colleges
or universities that "curb enroll-
ment of qualified students" after
several recent threats by admin-
istrators that this may be neces-
sitated by the appropriations giv-
en by the Legislature.
Sen. Frank D. Beadle (R-St.
Clair) and House Speaker Rep.
Don R. Pears (R-Buchanan) said
that they "would demand justifi-
cation" of any such action and
ask a "complete review of its
(the institution's) programs to de-
termine if all dollars are being
used wisely for education pur-
poses."
The action has particular ref-
erence to Eastern and Western
Michigan Universities.
EMU has sent out rejection slips
to applicants listing as one of the
reasons for refusing admittance
the unsatisfactory budget from the
state.
Lack of Funds
The president of WMU has
stated that admissions might have
to be cut due to the lack of re-
quested funds from the Legisla-
ture.
However, the University, as oth-
er institutions in the state, has in-
dicated that they might find it
necessary to freeze enrollments
at the present level to keep with-
in the budget.
Control of Admissions
Vice-President and Dean of
Faculties Marvin L. Niehuss said
that control of admissions seemed
to him to be properly in the area
of the institutions' governing
boards control, and that the
boards could decide if the budgets
necessitated limiting enrollment.
He also said that no special
investigation would be needed to
determine where the University's
money goes, since it issues de-
tailed financial statements to the
governor which are available to
the Legislature.
To Lengthen
Exam Period
The literary school steering com-
mittee is considering a proposal to
extend the final exam period in
order to allow the student more
time for study and integration of
material learned during the se-
mester
There are three possibilities for
utilizing this extra time, which
would be about a half-week. The
first is to have a block of time,
about five days, between the end
of classes and the start of exams.
This period could also be short-
ened and the extra few days would
be scattered between exams.
The third possibility is to even-
ly space exams so that there
would beoneeor two days of no
exams between each day exams
are given.
The committee, in order to have
the opinions of the students on
this issue, is holding an open.

PUBLIC INTEREST:
Minister Urges Reconciliation
r C.
By GAIL EVANS
"The mind of the public should
be turned from massive retalia-
tion' to 'massive reconciliation,' "
Dr. Edwin T. Dahlberg said last
night.
The past president of the Na-
tional Council of Churches called
for reconciliation in the inter-
national situation, racial relati ins
and church unity.
Attitudes of "emnity, suspicion,
fear and antagonism" exist in the
world today, emphasizing the need
for reconciliation on the world
front, Dahlberg said.
Rival Unions
Told To End
Airline Feud
WASHINGTON ()-Top gov-
ernment officials have told rival
pilots and engineers unions to set-
tle quickly their feud over air-
lines job rights or face the pros-
pect of a peace plan imposed by
the White House or Congress.
The blunt warnings, disclosed
yesterday, were delivered Tuesday
to representatives of the Air Line
Pilots Association and the Flight
Engineers International Associa-
tion at the start of stepped-up
mediation efforts.
At issue is the question of which
union shall represent the flight
engineers required on all large
transports. The controversy erupt-
ed last February into a six-day
strike against major airlines --
worst aviation stoppage in his-
tory.
The settle-up-or-face-the-con-
sequences statements were made.
to the flight engineers and pilots
unions by Secretary of Labor Ar-
thur J. Goldberg, Federal Aviation
Administrator Najeeb Halaby,
Chairman Francis A. O'Neill, Jr. of
the National Mediation Board,
and Chairman Nathan P. Fein-
singer of a special airlines labor
commission. .
Halaby told the unions their
squabble over cockpit jobs on the
big jets and multiple-prop com-
mercial transports has made the
public "uneasy about what is go-
ing on behind that (cockpit)
door."
Halaby said "what has been
referred to as the political crisis
in the cockpit" must be solved one
way or another-whether the un-
ions agree on a sensible plan of
their own, or the government or
Congress has to do it for them.
He sees three causes for the
present revolutionary situation:
the desire for land, rice and peace.
"Until we reckon with these de-
sires, we will not be realistically
grappling with the situation; whe
will never have world peace."
Concrete Tools
Economic aid, literacy cam-
paigns, technical assistance and
aid to education are concrete
things which Dahlberg stressed
to implement the drive towards
"massive reconciliation."
Through the Peace Corps, he
hopes that dedicated people, free
from romantic ideas, will identify
with the problems of people
abroad.
"One dentist or one doctor would
do more good than all the military
installations," he emphasized.
Yet, he said that often the
military men that he has known
are the most dedicated peace
workers, for they know the perils
of the world situation.
Image of Peace
On the home front, Dahlberg
said, "If we really want to create
the image of peace in the world,
we have to examine our own racial
attitudes."
In this area individual attitudes
play a significant role in striving
for racial peace, he added.
Dissension among the churches
must also end, the Baptist min-
ister emphasized. "The ecumenical
movement is one of the brightest
sides in this otherwise darkened
world," Dahlberg asserted.
Power Sei.zed
By Ministers
In Katanga
ELISABETHVILLE () - Three
cabinet ministers of the Congo's
Katanga government yesterday as-
sumed legislative and executive
powers in the absence of President
Moise Tshombe.
The three' ministers are Jean
Kibwe, vice-president and finance
minister; Godefroid Munongo, in-
terior minister and Joseph Kiwele,
education minister.
A communique signed by the
three and Charles Mutaka, presi-
dent of Katanga's Assembly an-
nounced that in view of Tshombe's
detention at Coquilhatville by the
Central Congo Government, it was
impossible under the constitution
of Katanga for full executive and
legislative powers to be exercised
properly except through a trium-
virate.

Tax Changes
By PHILIP SUTIN
The Graduate Student Council
will circulate petitions during sum-
mer and . fall registration urging
a change in the income tax laws
that will benefit graduate stu-
dents.
The petition, noting the im-
portance of a college education to
the nation and increasing cost,
requests Congress to make three
changes in the tax law.
Asks Exemption
It asks that an additional $600
exemptionbe given to self sup-
porting graduate students, the tax
allowances be made for direct edu-
cational expenses, and that similar
provisions be made for research
assistantships.
The council acted upon the re-1
quest of the Graduate Student
Association of the University of
California which is sponsoring and
co-ordinating this effort on a na-
tional basis.
Council president Edgar Man-
ker noted that students who are
partially supported by their par-
ents and partially by themselves
gain a $1200 tax deducation by
their parents and themselves
claiming deducations.
This situation is unfair to self
supporting students, he said.
Rectify Inequities
The other two provisions of the
petition are designed to rectify
present inequities inethe tax laws.
Many persons taking additional
job training can claim their ex-
penses as deductions. The pro-
vision for research assistantships
is to put it in the same class as
grants and fellowships which are
tax free, Manker explained.
Elections, originally scheduled
for last night's meeting, were post-
poned until a special session May
29.
Dr. George Solish, John Dealy,
and Anne Mooney were nominated
for president, Jerry Schuur for
vice-president and Jasper Reid
was nominated for treasurer at
the meeting.

-ease - nre ecause: The Uited
States government does not intend
to be trapped at the conference
table with the Russians and the
Chinese Communists while the
Pathet Lao rebels make further
military gains.
British Optimistie
The British, taking a more op-
1timistic view after a post-mid-
night study of their official dis-
patches, thought the prospects
were brighter for a start on Sat-
urday, or Monday at the latest.
As hours ticked by without cer-
tification of such a cease-fire from
the Indiana-Canadian-Polish con-
trol commission it seemed unlikely
that the 14-nation conference
would get under way on schedule
despite some earlier optimism.
The top commission members
returned to Vientiane, the capital
of the Royal Laotian Government,
from a visit to the rebel headquar-
ters apparently without having se-
cured a detailed agreement.
The meeting at a rebel-held Ban
Namone, 60 miles north of this ad-
ministrative capital, appeared as
fruitless as past bickering at the
cease-fire line village of Hin Heup.
Aide-de-Camp Slain
Slaying of the aide-de-camp of
Gen. Phoumi Nosavan, deputy pre-
mier and military strongman of
Premier Prince Boun Oum's re-
gime, was reported here amid the
arrangements for that talk.
Informed sources said the aide,
Maj. Eckarath Souvanarath, was
shot to death Wednesday as he
drove toward Vientiane's airport.
There was no indication of the
motive. The major was a right-
winger, a prince and a nephew of
neutralist Prince Souvanna Phou-
ma, whom the rebels call Premier.
The government agreement to
meet there was seen as a conces-
sion aimed at reaching some sort
of accord before the scheduled
opening tomorrow of the Geneva
Conference on Laos' future.

TOWER:

WASHINGTON MP)-The builder
of an fi-fated Atlantic radar tow-
er said yesterday the Navy de=
cided to erect the structure de-
spite prior damage.
The radar tower, put up in 1957
as part of the nation's offshore
aerial warning system, collapsed
last Jan. 15 carrying its full per-
sonnel of 28 to death. The builder
said he decided three days earlier
that the tower should be vacated.
E. G. Rau, vice-president and

Investigating subcommittee that
the decision to put up the three-
legged steel tower was made by

President Confirms
Fears of Students
By FRED RUSSELL KRAMER
Eugene B. Elliott, president of
Eastern Michigan University, last
night confirmed student fears of
an austerity program at Eastern.
He said all scholarships, ex-
cept those established by private
sources will be discontinued.
"In order to meet our budget
we will have to reduce the size of
the student body by two and one
half per cent and hold back fac-
ulty raises," he said.
Made Pledges
"Even though we made pledges
to the contrary, it may become
necessary to increase out-of-state
tuition," he added.
"There will be a curtailment in
the publication of bulletins (cata-
logs) and any other program that
is not completely justified," he
said.
The Legislature appropriated
only $65,000 more than it did last
year for EMU.
Elliott's statement came after
widespread student rioting at EMU
last night.
.aStudents Demonstrate
The demonstrations centered
around the recent austerity con-
siderations and rumors of admin-
istrative action to remove campus
landmarks.
Students objected to the possi-
ble closing of EMU's Roosevelt
High School, a school engaged In
experimentation with new teach-
ing methods.
The riots began when a few
students demonstrated against the
rumored removal of a' mid-Vic-
torian cement fountain presented
to the university by the Class of
'94 and a large rock which EMU's
fraternities traditionally paint
each day.
Converge on House
The nature of the demonstra-
tion soon changed, however, as
hundreds of students converged on
Elliott's house to demand expla-
nation of the then rumored aus-
terity program.
Demonstrators objected to the
possibility that Eastern might
cease to sponsor various student
activities.
In addition, many students ob-
jected to the impending inter-
change of men's and women's
dormitories.
Bloody Sale
Michigar Tech students said
yesterday they are prepared to
sell their blood in an effort to
restore some of the funds the
Legislature has cut from the
college's operating budget.
Frank Palluconi, president of
the Tech Student Council and
spokesman for the 3,100-mem-
ber student body, said that pro-
ceeds from "Operation Blood
letting" will be turned over to
the college.
"Our goal is to raise enough
money to restore one faculty
position," Palluconi said,

There will be no settlement of
the Arab-Israeli conflict in the
Middle East until Israel imple-
ments the United Nations resolu-
tion of 1948, Fawzi Abu-Diab, '54,
said last night in a lecture spon-
sored by the Arab students club.
The director of the Midwest
Arab Information Center in Chi-
cago explained that the United
Nations motion, which asked Is-
"Israel has now illegally held the
lands rightfully belonging to these
Arab refugees for 13 years without
paying one cent."
These one million refugees, "ter-
rorized and expelled by Israel,"
now exist on a starvation diet.
They own 88 per cent of Israeli
territory, Abu-Diab, former Stu-
dent Government Council member
said.
Instead of giving private pro-
in the world and dominate the
neighboring Arab states. This
could only mean war," he said.
Since 1922, when Great Britain
put Palestine under its rule to
protect its own' sea lanes, the
Arabs have protested against "un-
just invasion."
Previous, Jews in Arab territory
had always enjoyed full political
and religious freedom. This was
re-emphasized in World War II
,
