ense Diplomatic At. et Khrushchev nosphere in Paris Io Gr 41 Premier Set There Today Early Arrival Causes Lively Speculation PARIS A) -- Unpredictable So- viet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev, his attitude of truculent indigna- tion well advertised in advance, arrives in Paris today for a sum- mit meeting which could become a world-shaking wrangle in its first day. In diplomatic quarters, the at- mosphere was one of tense ex- pectancy. One diplomat said: "We should know very quickly whether we're going to have a one-day meeting." Westerners here for the four- power heads of government meet- ing opening Monday seemed agreed that the length and pros- pects of the fateful conference depended :upon the Soviet Pre- mier's attitude.. Lively Speculation There was lively speculation of Khrushchev's decision' to arrive in Paris 48 hours before the open- ing of the 'conference. U.S. President Dwight D. Eis- enhower and Britain's Prime Min- ister Harold MacMillian are not due until Sunday morning. Some expressed belief Khrush- chev was seeking a propaganda head start at the scene of the summit meeting. Others suggested he was anxious to test the atmos- phere. If the latter is the case, it seem- ed likely Khrushchev would be advised, in preliminary talks with President Charles de Gaulle of France, that unless he takes it easy in his approach, the summit meeting is not likely to last long. Khrushchev was considered likely yesterday to demand at the summit conference that the United States promise to stop its spy flights over Russia. The prospect heightened chances of a clash between Eisen- hower and the Soviet leader over the case of the downed American U2 plane when the East-West leaders meet in Paris next week. ' Eisenhower sees the United States flights behind the Iron Curtain as needed for defense against possible surprise .attack. He has served notice that he will reoffer at the summit his open The Russians, who captured Powers and claim to have shot down the plane, accused the United States of hostile acts and threatened reprisals in case of future flights. The United States reply, deliv- ered in Moscow by the United States Embassy, denied "any ag- gressive intent" and said Ameri- ca's intelligence gathering is "for purely defensive purposes." It denied too the Soviet accu- sation that the May 1 flight was undertaken deliberately to wreck the long-awaited summit parley. "Indeed," the U. S. note said, "it is the Soviet government's treatment of this case which, if anything, may raise questions, about its intentions in respect to these matters." The U. S. note concluded: "For its part, the United States government will participate in the Paris meeting on May 16 prepared to cooperate to the fullest extent in seeking agreements designed to reduce tensions, including effec-1 tive safeguards against\ surprise attack which would make unnec- essary issues of this kind." Herter Left Thursday Secretary of State Christian A. Herter departed Thursday for final pre-summit conferences ats Paris with a smiling goodby, but1 a refusal to comment on summitl prospects or whether Eisenhower should go to Russia. PRESIDENT EISENHOWER . In Paris tomorrow - skies plan for reciprocal aerial in- spection. Officially Charged Last night the United States officially charged that Moscow's treatment of the spy case casts doubt on whether Khrushchev really intends progress at the summit toward easing East-West tensions. The United States allegation was contained in a 250-word note replying to the Kremlin's May 10 protest about the May Day flight deep into Soviet territory by American pilot Francis G. Powers. PREMIER KHRUSHCHEV ...in Paris today - Meanwhile the spy plane case continued to trouble United States relations with friends and neu- trals. The Pakistani ambassador, after a 15-minute meeting with Herter, said his government has not yet determined whether the U2 flew into Russia from Pakistan. The Afghan ambassador said after a State Department visit that his government would strong- ly protest what he called an act of aggression and violation of Afghanistan's neutrality. KALAMAZOO COLLEGE: Private School Retains Small Size By The Associated Press KALAMAZOO - A classic ex- ample of the struggle of private education to survive in the face of the rapid expansion of tax sup- ported schools can be viewed from a pair of green clad hills divided by a railroad track in Kalamazoo. The railroad track, traditional symbol of division in America, has lost its harsh mark of class dis- tinction in this case because of the friendship and cooperation which have developed over the years be- tween Kalamazoo College and Western Michigan University which face each other "across the tracks." Kalamazoo College, proud of the 127. years which make it Michi- gan's oldest college, is a perfect example of the small, privately financed liberal arts institution trying to balance the problem of I ever-increasing tuition and oper- ating costs with the assets of an excellent faculty, small classes and the charm of small campus life. WMU Booms Across the tracks is big, booming Western Michigan University. Only 57 years old, Western is exploding after many years service as a teacher training school into an era in which it is expected to meet the demands of a full fledged uni- versity. Kalamazoo College, working un- der a program of controlled and highly selective enrollment, has about 650 students on campus to- day. Ten years ago the number wasn't much smaller. Western Michigan, meeting the demand for state supported college education by thousands of Michi- gan high school graduates, has jumped from approximately 4,000 students in 1950 to nearly 9,000 today, despite a tightened up en- trance program. Cost Looms Large The cost situation looms large in the planning of the two men who serve as presidents of these next door neighbor colleges. To President Weimer K. Hicks of Kalamazoo College the cost fac- tor creates a problem which must be met by providing the "extras" of private school education coupled with the continual search for fi- nancial assistance from friends of the college. Since World War II, Kalamazoo College has been able to raise more than $2.5 million to improve its facilities. "It is simply impossible for a private school to offer an educa- tion at a cost comparable to that charged by a tax supported uni- versity," Hicks says. "The private school must al- ways turn to its alumni and friends when it needs money," says Hicks. "Here at Kalamazoo we use the bulk of our tuition money to pay above average faculty salaries. To provide operating funds for the college itself, we must conduct a fund drive for about $125,000 every. year. It is not easy." Problem: Money While he turns to Lansing rather than to private sources for funds, President Paul V. Sangren of WMU, also classes money as his major problem. Unlike that of Hicks, Sangren's problem is not the threat of ever- increasing tuition fees, although that is a worrysome factor. Rather, he is faced with the demand for more and more housing, classroom and service space as the lines of would-be students form at his campus door. Has Obligation "Western has an obligation to students, parents and the state of Michigan to provide buildings, equipment and faculty needed to carry on a sound educational pro- gram. Our nation is economically able to give adequate support to higher education. Whether tax supported schools can meet the in- creased student load is up to a decision by the people who pay the taxes." Michigan has its share of small, privately financed colleges, as well as its state supported schools, but only in Kalamazoo are they with- in waving distance of each other. Is there room in the future for both? Hicks and Sangren think there is. Both educators feel that "big" education at the state level must grow even bigger as the stu- dent load increases. But they also agree that the accomplishments of small college education warrant increasing support from industry and private citizens who recognize its worth.
