It is well U.S. Share I u 4' UNITED NATIONS (P)--The nited States, through assess- ents and voluntary contribu- ns, has provided 48 per cent the money spent by the nited Nations in financing its o big peace-keeping opera- Ms. From 1960 through 1962 the nited States paid $114 million w a r d the UN's military :dget in the Congo. Of this, 3 million was in assessments id $40 million in voluntary ntributions. The U n i t e d ates also gave an additional 8 million foi economic aid in e Congo. In the Middle East opera- in, the United States paid $30 illion in assessments from 57 through 1962 and an addi- nal $22 million in voluntary utributions for a total of $53 illio'n during the six-year above $100 million and soaring. Secretary-General U Thant has put a priority tag on the issue in the General Assembly session opening Sept. 17. Threaten UN Thant warned recently that un- less something is done quickly the situation will jeopardize the very existence of the United Nations. The 111-nation Assembly wres- tled with the financial problem for six weeks last spring in a special session devoted solely to this ques- tion. The stopgap measures adopt- ed then brought little real relief. Despite these steps, Thant says, "the organization is likely, for some time to come, to operate un- der a serious deficit and a cash position causing constant con- cern." Need Funds Thant acknowledges the prob- lem basically results from inability to collect assessments to finance the two big United Nations peace- keeping operations in the Middle East and the Congo.' The situation boils down to three main questions: -What, if anything, can the United Nations do about collecting the overdue assessments from member countries ? -What can be done to make up .the mounting deficit if delin- quent members persist in their re- fusal to pay? -What can be done to finance future United Nations peace-keep- ing operations so that adequate funds would be assured in ad- vance? Bad Debts UN diplomats see little or no chance of collecting much of the $100 million now overdue. Pub- licly, however, they still talk about collecting it. They have not yet tackled the alternative of making up the deficit by other means. The Assembly has accepted an advisory opinion of the World Court holding that these assess- ments are binding on members, but the Soviet Union, France and other countries have challenged the ruling. They could have their voting rights suspended under a UN charter provision, if they are a full two years in arrears, but this has never been done. No Payment The difficulty of trying to force payment by penalties, such as sus- pension of voting rights, is appar- ent in view of the number of members in arrears. Despite a few recent payments by delinquent countries, 40 have paid nothing on the Congo operation and 22 have not contributed to the UN force in the Middle East. Some of the big countries like the Soviet Union and France, which owe most of the money, have made it clear they have no inten- tion of paying even if there is a move to suspend them. The im- portance of their refusal is under- lined by the fact that the Soviet bloc alone is more than $42 million in arrears on Congo assessments WHERE THE MONEY GOES-A Swedish soldier stands guard as refugees line up for food at a UN-administered camp near Elisa- bethville, Katanga. This peace-keeping operation accounts for much of the UN's $100 million deficit. By Intercollegiate Press BRUNSWICK, Me. - Bowdoin College's new senior center pro- gram, expected to begin in the 1964-65 academic year, is "an effort to develop an effective pro- gram for seniors in the best pos- sible environment," according to Prof. William B. Whiteside, direc- tor of the $3.1 million center. "Bowdoin will modify what has been a typical four-year program for a small residential college, and will provide a common facil- ity for all senior class members.' The faculty has approved a num- ber of curriculum innovations which we feel will be appropriate for seniors." Designed to increase effective- ness of the entire academic pro- gram and make college exper- ience outside the classroom more relevant to the senior student's sense of immediacy, the senior center program will include a series of senior seminars, seen as a means of study comparable to that of the master's or doctoral level in universities. The building's facilities will provide for both visiting lecturers and career specialists to live and mingle with students, "Environmental planning and effective management of Ameri- can education calls for gathering and interpretation of information' that colleges have not had avail- able before," Prof. Whiteside noted. ."We want to learn more about how students make decisions, and what will help them proceed more intelligently and effectively as they plan their futures." * * * SALT LAKE CITY-A Univer- sity of Utah committee has rec- ommended that a continuing ad- SPECIAL CAMPUS RATES Faculty Magazine Student Educator visory group on fraternities and sororities be approved by the president. The report recommended that a closer working relationship be developed between the university and fraternities in regard to their financial operations and that greater alumni participation in chapter financial affairs be en- couraged where needed. The report was an outgrowth of an earlier inquiry into legal as- pects of fraternities and sororities being housed on university prop- erty, site location and develop- ment, types of housing, methods of financing and establishment of a (construction) timetable. to de- termine conditions under which fraternities and sororities could move on campus. The committee's recommenda- tions were based on the assump- tion that the "fraternities and sororities at the university are an important part of the com- munity and that they make a sub-' stantial contribution to students' educational experiences." Also it noted that specific kinds of actions need be taken by the faculty, administration, students, parents and alumni if the poten- tial contribution is to be realized. BOULDER-The faculty senate of the University of Colorado adopted a report from an ad hoc committee which supported the students' right to criticize univer- sity faculty and administration. The committee studied "the de- gree to which students may cri- ticize publicly members of the university faculty and adminis- tration without disciplinary action by the university.' The committee, which included five faculty members and two student government representa- tives, decided that "the univer- sity should encourage and stimu- late independent thinking on the part of its students in every way possible. "It should also encourage dis- sent, and freedom of opinion and criticism of all university ideas, policies and programs and of society." The report also reminded stu- dents of their responsibility in exercising such freedom. It also added that "in extreme cases the university, through appropriate channels, may be called upon to pass judgment upon its members with respect to their observance of the obligations that they owe to the university." Disciplinary action "would be called for only under the rarest of circumstances," the report stated. _____ ____ ____ ___ 1 1 I and France is $14 million in ar- rears.

One of the ques- tions involved was a proposal to establish a peace fund to be used to finance future peace-keeping operations. Hoadley Tells Of Court Case Against YSA Collegiate Press Service BLOOMINGTON - M o n r o e County prosecutor Thomas Hoad- ley told a United States National Student Association seminar last week that he brought charges against the Indiana University chapter of the Young Socialist Alliance as a "public service." Indiana's recognition, he said, constitutes a subsidy of the YSA and he did not think "that the people of Indiana want to subsidize a group advocating the overthrow of the United States government." He said he began action last December after Indiana recog- nized the YSA as an official student organization, an act which he felt was in violation of the' university's own policy of deny- ing official recognition "to any totalitarian fascist, communistic or subversive" organization. Cites Charter Hoadley said he based his charges on statements in the YSA constitution which declared the organization's purpose "to present revolutionary socialist ideas on the campus," and which bases it on "the traditions of Marxism as developed by Lenin, Trotsky, Lux- emburg, and Liebknecht." The university refused on the grounds that YSA was not on tne United States Attorney General's list, which Hoadley termed "de- funct" since it hasn't been re- vised since 1957. Caught with .Goods Hoadley said that a number of YSA pamphlets were found in the girl's possession. He also remarked that his of- fice had released some secret grand jury testimony showing that the dean of students at In- diana had requested that the students be indicted. Hoadley said he did this to show up the uni- versity's "ambivalent" position for charging violation of academic freedom while at the same time urging indictment. Time Life Sports Illus.
