Johnson urged Con- gress yesterday to take "long overdue action" on his immigration bill outlined in his State of the Union message. "The fundamental, longtime American attitude has been to ask not. where a person comes from but what his personal qualities are. Violation of this tradition by the national origins quota system does incalculable harm," Johnson said. "The procedures imply that men and women from some coun- tries are, just because of where they come, from, more desirable citizens than others." First preference under the bill ] would be given to those with the kinds of skills or attainments which make the admission espe- cially advantageous to our society. Other preferences would favor close relatives of citizens and per- k manent residences, and thus serve to promote the reuniting of fam- ilies - long a primary goal of American immigration policy. Parents Too School Aid. Bill Praised By Hatcher University President Harlan Hatcher was among the many Michigan educators whowelcomed the federal aid to education pro- gram which President Lyndon B. Johnson recommended to Con- gress. Under the plan, Michigan would get an estimated $38,767,908 in federal funds to be used for school districts serving low-income fam- ilies and to improve educational levels from kindergarten to college. Commenting on the aid, Hatch- er said "The need in the nation is so urgent and overwhelming that federal participation has long since become inevitable. "President Johnson's message will do more to emphasize the to- tal nature of the problem than to solve any one of its many aspects, but it can be regarded as a step in the direction of higher level sup- port for education throughout the state. "We must be sure, however,I that a larger measure of federal WHITE HOUSE TALKS: Sato Agrees Red Drive Must Halt WASHINGTON (P) -President Lyndon B. Johnson and Prime Minister Eisaku Sato of Japan yesterday dug into the problem towering over the peace of Asia -a nuclear armed China - and agreed Communist expansion must be resisted. American officials, reporting this, said the great bulk of the two days of talks between Sato and Johnson zeroed in on policy toward Red China and Southeast Asia. This is the volatile area where indirect confrontations of China and the United States have erupt- ed in hostilities being fought by allies of each in South Viet Nam and Laos, an area with which Ja- pan has historic economic ties. Differ on Trade The officials noted that while there is no difference in United States and Japanese positions on Red Chinese expansion and power, there are different views on trade with the Peking regime. This was underscored in a final communique issued by the two heads of government earlier in the day. It did not touch on China's new nuclear power but did make these points: -Japan and the United States would maintain close consultation on Red China. -Sato said it is basic Japanese policy to firmly maintain its se- British Face, Crisis over A ircraft Cut LONDON (A)-Britain's Labor government faced a rebellion in the aircraft industry last night over plans to cut spending on mili- tary aircraft. A major industrial crisis con- fronted Prime Minister Harold Wilson's new administration as in- dustry leaders and trade union- ists joined in alliance. Angry demonstrations and pro-< test meetings by thousands oft workers-who are afraid they will lose their jobs if the cuts go through-gathered pace all over the country. Ten Thousand Ten thousand workers scheduled a mammoth march through Lon- don today. The revolt stemmed from pro-I posed cuts in military spending aimed at pegging the defense budget at 2 billion pounds ($5.6{ billion).' Cheaper in America Only one TSR-2 has flown sof far. But the whole project, start- ed by the Conservative govern-< ment, will cost an estimated 600 million pounds ($1.6 billion). The government says it could get a fleet of TFX planes for half that price. Industry leaders say contem- plated cuts could threaten the jobs of some 99,000 workers in aircraft and component factories1 scattered throughout the country.1 They claim that scrapping the1 TSR-2 alone wduld deal a body blow to Britain's entire aircraft industry and its ability to keep up to date in the technological race.Ii World News Roundup By The Associated Press WASHINGTON-Two United States fighter-bombers were shot down over Laos yesterday and an army spotter plane was downed near the Viet Nam-Cambodian border. Loss of these two jets brought to six the total number of American reconnaissance or fighter jets that have been shot down by ground fire in Laos since last June. VIENTIANE-Two companies of North Vietnamese engineers stationed at Bane Nga Nasone on the Laotian-North Vietnamese border are now building a road between there and Dien Bien Phu in North Viet Nam, a communique said today. It added that between Jan. 2 and Jan. 6 minor engagements took place at nine separate areas, mostly south of Vientiane, between government and pro- Communist Pathet Lao forces. AUGUSTA, Maine-Legislation to create a Maine sweepstakes PRIME MINISTER SATO PRESIDENT JOHNSON N P Re or ed in UNITED NATIONS (P) - Secre- tary-General U Thant conferred separately yesterday with the chief delegates of the United States and the Soviet Union but apparently failed to make any progress in resolving the crisis over UN peace- keeping debts. The secretary-general was open- ing a last round of efforts aimed at avoiding a U.S.-Soviet confron- tation when the General Assem- bly reconvenes Monday after a New Year's recess. No Comment Stevenson met with Thant and later told reporters that, pending the negotiations Thant was hold- ing with representatives of vari- ous countries, "There's nothing I can say." Fedorenko met with Thant for about an hour also, but the Rus- sian did not make himself avail- able to newsmen. Philippine Ambassador Salva- dore P. Lopez also conferred with Thant. Financial Crisis "My impression is that no prog- ress was made in resolving the fi- nancial crisis," Lopez told news- men. He added that "there has been no change for the better" since the Assembly recessed Dec. 30. Meanwhile, UN officials disclos- ed that the Soviet Union paid $3.5 million into the UN treasury yesterday on its regular assess- ment for 1964. The Soviet Union made a similar $1.3 million pay- ment during the last week of De- cember. The payment, however, was not anywhere near enough to avoid a challenge of its voting rights in the Assembly. This would require payment of around $21.7 million.

WASHINGTON - Turkey has notified the United States and other allies it will not participate in the U.S.-sponsored NATO nu- clear fleet, the State Department said today. As a result of this basic policy decision, Turkey is expected to withdraw its 11-mon group from the crew of the de- stroyer Ricketts.

Launch Drive .to End Strike NEW YORK EM) - Longshore leaders launched a campaign yes- terday to sell their rank-and-file members a repudiated labor con- tract that could end a strike of 60,000 east and gulf coast dock- ers. They called it "operation facts." A new vote on the contract is scheduled, but no date has been set pending completion of the sales campaign. Letters were sent out to 24,000 New York longshoremen, whose rejection of the proposed contract last Friday was followed Sunday midnight by the Maine-to-Texas pier walkout. The strike has idled some 200 vessels and is costing an estimated more than $20 million a day. t State Growth To Depend e of University Technology PA than the technological interest of the manufacturing sector of the U.S. or Michigan economies." With respect to the Michigan economy the report states, "The primary metals and the met4l- working industries (including mo- tor vehicles) constitute the core of Michigan's manufacturing econo- my, yet relatively little research emphasis has been given to the related technical subject areas in the four Michigan universities during the past 15 years." The report adds that part of this problem is due to failures in "tech- nological communication." Specif- ically, the national defense orien- tation of post-World War II re- search in Michigan (and else- where) is noted. This research ori- entation has continued, the report states, in spite of the establish- ment of the defense systems pro- duction on the West Coast and of continued state industrial em- phasis, down to the present, on consumer and producer durable goods. Opposite "Just the opposite appears to' have occurred in California and Massachusetts, where universities and industry have been pursuing more closely related fields of in- terest as a result of their mutual involvement in defense and space E programs," the report states. However, "This does not mean that it would be desirable for state universities to orient their research programs completely to state needs. "One of the most likely avenues for achieving the economic growth needed in Michigan during the next decade can be opened by learning how to fully utilize these university resources in a manner compatible with the existing cap- abilities within Michigan indus- try and future technological needsj and in a manner consonant with the overall educational objectives t of the state universities."
