Kennedy Plans
For Vienna Talk,
Kennedy 'Determined To Resist'
Freedom's Opposition at Meetings
WASHINGTON (P)-President John F. Kennedy said last night he
is going to Vienna to tell Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev that the
United States is "determined to resist all those who seek the destruc-
tion of freedom."
Kennedy said this determination is matched only by America's
desire for peace.
"The silent guest at every conference table," Kennedy said, "will
be the freedom of man."
Speaks to Democrats
The President addressed a' Democratic party fund raising dinner
tonight, but largely in nonpolitical terms. In a talk to nearly 6,000

Paris Talks
May,Concern
West Berlin
PARIS (IP) -Divided Berlin
looms as the most immediate prob-
lem when French President
Charles de Gaulle and President
John F. Kennedy meet Wednesday
in a search for Western unity on
world coiflicts.
With Kennedy scheduled to meet
Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrush-
chev in Vienna after his Paris visit,
Berlin is virtually certain to head
the agenda here.
Bolstering this belief is wide-
spread conviction that Soviet ef-
forts to oust the Western powers
from Berlin may reach a critical
stage before the year ends.
No opposition
There is reason to believe that
de Gaulle was advised well in ad-
vance of the Kennedy-Khrushchev
meeting and expressed no opposi-
tion, despite the fact that its in-
clusion on Kennedy's first trip to
Europe as President tends to dilute
the impact of the first de Gaulle-
Kennedy meeting,
But, it also gives the French
President an opportunity to offer
counsel, or restate the French posi-
tion on staying in Berlin.
Discussion of Berlin is sure to
bring up West Germany's desire
for its own nuclear armament. The
West Germans feel they are the
first line of defense against the
military might of the Soviet Union.
Geographically this is true, but
long-range missiles now lay West
Germany and its allies alike open
to concerted attack.
De Gaulle is striving to provide
Prance with its own nuclear weap-
ons and has made progress.

Stevenson Tour
By The Associated Press
President John F. Kennedy met
with United States Ambassador
to the United Nations Adlai E.
Stevenson yesterday and talked
over the possibility that Stevenson
would go Lon a goodwill mission to
South America..
Although no formal announce-
ment came out of the meeting
observers expect Kennedy to con-
firm Stevenson's tour within a
couple of days.
Stevenson toured Latin America
as a private citizen last year and
was well received.

Meanwhile, Khrushchev left
Moscow today on a whistle-stop-

meet Kennedy in Vienna. He told

everything will go well."

LID Finds
Unexpected
Membership
Welch Said in Group
Affiliated with PIC
By IRIS BROWN
A co-chairman of the Political
Issues Club, a professedly liberal
group was suprised yesterday to
learn that Robert Welch Jr., the
founder and head of the ultra-
conservative John Birch Society,
is a member in good standing of
their affiliate group, the League
for Industrial Democracy.
Welch 'joined LID in 1958 and
has paid his annual dues each
year through 1961, the New York
Times reported yesterday.
Welch said he did not have the
slightest idea whether he belonged
to the League, but he said it was
possible he did,
Membership Form
A League director produced the
original membership application
form containing Welch's name and
address,
"There could not be a more
distinct opposition in our points
of view," Robert Ross, '63, PIC
co-chairman said.
PIC is the local chapter of Stu-
dents for a Democratic Society
which is the student affiliate of
LID.
May Expel Welch
A League spokesman said it was
possible that Welch might be ex-
pelled from the organization un-
der a clause in the constitution
which provides for the expulsion
of a member "for an act of bad
faith" injurious to the organiza-
tion.
Ross said that the groups are
based upon a constant questioning
of the goals and processes of a
democratic society. "We know-
ingly accept no members with,
totalitarian beliefs on either the
left of the right," he said.
Ross also said that Welch's
membership is "very understand-
able." These people often send in
membership blanks as a matter
of course in order to receive a
group's publications.

CALLED 'UNNECESSARY'
''Professors Criticize
Bill on Science Academy
By BUEL TRAPNELL
University faculty members have described the national science
academy proposed in a House of Representatives bill as unnecessary,
overly expensive and unlikely to be approved by Congress.
"It would be much better for the government to give substantial
aid to the present universities," Prof. Algo D. Henderson, director
of the Center for Study of Higher Education, said.
The bill, sponsored by Rep. Victor L. Anfuso (D-NY) is being
considered by the House Committee on Science and Aeronautics. It

to meet Kennedy
play a real and helpful role in the
quest for peace."
To the West, he said, the meet-
ings in Vienna will symbolize the
unity of the Western world. To
Khrushchev, they will symbolize
America's intention to leave no
pathway to peace unexplored.
Seeks Insight
"Thus I go to Europe," Kennedy
said, "seeking not solutions to all
our problems but insight to condi-
tions that guide our destinies."
Former President Harry S. Tru-
man said it is comforting to see
that the issues confronting us are
being met with courage and deci-
sion."
And in Vienna, Austrian Presi-
dent Adolf Schaerf said "we hope
the Kennedy and Khrushchev
meeting brings about a change for
the better in world politics."

After the tests, Robert Sargent
Shriver, Jr., Peace Corps direc-
tor, issued' a statement saying the
turnout "clearly shovfs the high
quality of the men and women who
wish to serve .
Reach Goal
"We have said that we would
have 500 to 1,000 people overseas
this year," he added. "There is no
doubt that we will reach that
goal," the Associated . Press re-
ported Shriver as saying.
A second general examination,
this one for those who plan to
teach overseas at the secondary
level will be offered on both June
3 and 5. Peace Corps volunteers
have the option of taking this
test on either date, so that there
be no conflicts with their Uni-
versity examination schedules.
No Cutoff
Peace Corps officials say that
there is no such thing as a pass-
ing score on these tests. Instead
they will be evaluated to discover
those who have the particular
skills needed on specific projects.
This group of tests are the first

Research Job
BALTIMORE (,)-Johns Hop-

managing the Operations Research

Army..
Ellis A. Johnson, director of the
research organization, said a dis-
agreement between the Army and
the university about the prepara-
tion of certain research programs
at ORO led to the Army's deci-
sion.
"The Army and the university
could not agree on the details of
the Army's desire to manage
ORO's research in detail, and to
limit the scope of the research
itself," said Johnson.
"The university took the atti-

should be conducted on the basis
of letting the chips fall where

Johnson said the Army had
"demanded" his dismissal, but
that the University refused.

The Pathet Lao denied the

The statement said Path et Lao

Phoumi Vongvichit, Pathet Lao

He told newsmen ''that Unte4

Texas GOP
Leads in Race
For Senate
DALLAS (A') - Republican col-
lege professor John G. Tower, who
said he has never supported a
liberal cause, shook the Texas'
Democratic Party early this morn-
ing as he increased his lead in a
special United States Senate elec-
tion.
The election of Tower, who has
never held public office, would put
a Republican from Texas in the
Senate for the first time in the
20th century.
In returns at 2 a.m. Tower had
444,386 votes to 436,210 for Wil-
liam A. Blakley, conservative
Democrat who is now interim
Senator by appointment. Tower
had 50.46 per cent of the ballots
out of the estimated one million
votes cast.
Bob Johnson, head of the Texas
election bureau, said "we'll just
have to let the figures speak for
themselves." He said he would not
predict the outcome on the basis
of the midnight vote count.

Sawyer said that he does not

much support in the House.
Prof. Henderson objected to fie
portion of the bill that would re-
quire a set period of government
service from graduates of the

He addedthat the academy
would not have trouble getting
good faculty members because the
federal government pays well, but
it would have to take teachers
away from the established univer-

Prof. Merritt M. Chambers com-

have no trouble finding a large
