The decision, which was ap- pealed by the government, was handed down by United States District Judge Walter J. La Buy in Chicago. He held that Du Pont could retain its 63 million shares in General Motors, but would have to pass voting rights on to Di Pont stockholders. Du Pont holdings amount to about 23 per cent of GM's out- standing stock. The federal government, through the justice department antitrust division, has been trying for 11 years to compel Du Pont to divest itself of GM holdings. Justices Tom C. Clark and John M. Harlan disqualified themselves from the case. Other Action In other major action today, the court upheld, on a 5-4 vote, a secret contempt of court procedure in which a New Yorker received a one-year jail sentence. Justice Felix Frankfurter, who spoke for the majority, said no ob- jection.was made by Morry Levine or his attorney to the public being excluded from the court room of Federal District Judge Richard H. Levet. Levine was punished for refus- ing to answer grand jury questions in an investigation dealing with motor carrier sections of the Inter- state Commerce Act. The dissenters called the ruling "a radical departure from the principles which have prevailed, and should continue to prevail." Trial Technique Two of the dissenters called secrecy "a government trial tech- nique that liberty-loving people have with great reason feared and hated in all ages." The prosecution of Levine, de- scribed as an executive of a New York dress manufacturing firm, arose from his use of the fifth amendment. Claiming its prtec- tion against self - incrirination, Levine refused to answer six ques- tions. A government lawyer re- jected this claim, asserting that the motor carrier act safeguards a witness from prosecution based on his testimony before a grand jury. When Levine persisted in his re- fusal, Judge Levet ordered him to answer. Dean Moore Takes Post Dean Earl V.

United Of Maintaining 'Spy States Accuses 4 Ambassador Says Agent SOught Data Kirilyuk Dismissed From UN Position UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (M)-- United States' Henry Cabot Lodge gave the United Nations Security Council some new information yesterday on Vadim A. Kirilyuk, an accused Soviet spy whose case Vice-President Richard M. Nixon disclosed last week. Lodge said the man was caught seeking data on cryptographic machines that have to do with secret codes. Nixon, speaking at a Buffalo news conference last Wednesday, had said only that Kirilyuk was trying to get highly classified in- formation from an American in Springfield, Mass., when the FBI found him out. Kirilyuk Dismissed He said Kirilyuk then was dis- missed from his Secretariat job at the United Nations, where he was a trusteeship division researcher. Lodge named Kirilyuk with 10 other Russians on what he called an illustrative list of Soviet spies exposed in the United States since Stalin died seven years ago. He said Kirilyuk was caught in the act last September when So- viet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev was speaking to the United Na- tions General Assembly on dis- armament. Ambassador Lodge brought up Soviet espionage to counter the Soviet Union's complaint in the United Nations against American U-2 spy flights over Russian ter- ritory. Espionage Agents Lodge said the United States understood "that at least 360 Rus- sian espionage agents have been convicted in different countries of the free world." Besides Kirilyuk he listed the following as "unmasked in the United States" since Stalin's death: Commandor Igor Aleks Andro- vich Amosov, Capt. Ivan Alek- sandrovich Bubchikov, Col. Mak- sim Grigaryevich Martynov, Lt. Col. Leonid Yegorovich Pivnev, Maj. Yuriy Pavovich Krylov, Al- eksandr Petrovich Kovalev, Nik- olay Ivanovich Kurochkin, Vas- iliy Mikhaylovich Molev, Vktor Ivanovich Petrov. Discusses Spy Lodge also referred to the So- viet Spy Col. Rudolph Ivanovich Abel - convicted "right here in New York - and others in the United States and abroad. He said a Soviet vessel in recent weeks committed "an aggressive act" by deliberately interfering with vessels of the United States Navy" off Long Island. Lodge asked that the proceed- ings be broadcast in Russia say- ing, "We believe in free speech, and we hope the Soviet Union will broadcast, and the Soviet press will print, the full proceedings so the Soviet public will be informed." -AP wirephoto UN TENSION-In reply to the demand by Russian Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko (right) that the United States be condemned for spying, the United State's ambassador, Henry Cabot Lodge, accused the USSR of maintaining a vast spy ring in the free world. COMMENDS UNIVERSJTY: NAACP Passes Five Resolutions Russian Networ By CYNTHIA NEU The 25th State Convention of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People passed five resolutions concerning non-discrimination in higher edu- cation and commending the Uni- versity for its effort to eliminate discrimination on campus. The convention, held last week- end in Flint, congratulated the Student Government Council for the ruling passed recently to end discrimination in membership of recognized campus organizations and praised the administration, faculty and student body for their part in efforts to make the Uni- versity campus totally non-dis- criminatory. Give Citation The students and townspeople who participated in the picketing of discriminatory stores were given a citation of merit. The group commended Vice- president for Student Affairs James A. Lewis for his part in de- signing and implementing the by- law passed by the Relents in No- vember, 1959 which states, "The University shall not discriminate against any person because of race, color, religion, creed, national origin or ancestry. "Further it shall work for the elimination of discrimination in private organizations recognized by the University and from non- University sources where students and employees of the University are involved." Lauds By-Law The convention lauded the by- law as "one of the best and broad- est statements of policy ever adopted by a public educational institution in the United States. The University delegates to the conference were Sharon Williams, '63, President of the University NAACP chapter; Bereton Bissell, '61, Vice-president; Walter Fag- gett, Grad., Board member and Constance Thompson, '63, Assist- ant Secretary. The University and Michigan State are the only two chapters of the NAACP active on college campuses. Last year the University was. commended for removing resi- dence hall restrictions, a move which had been influenced by a resolution made by the NAACP in 1958, Bissell said. Reaffirms Stand The conference went on record as "reaffirming the stand against discrimination in off campus hous- ing facilities and also against dis- crimination in roommate assign- ment in resident halls." James Seder, chairman of the Human Relations Board, com- mented that two areas where the University has been taking recent action are in student groups and off campus housing. He said "The committee on discrimination in off campus housing hopes to come up with its plan to alleviate problems in this area before the end of the school year." Seder also stated that compared with the standards set up by the NAACP the University should be very proud of its record, and com- mended the group's recognition of the work done by Vice-president Lewis. The convention "demands that any schools which may still retain quotas or other forms of discrimi- nation in admissions remove them immediately. "Discriminatory" clauses refer to those based on race and religion rather than those along economic strata or for foreign students. The University chapter of the NAACP will take action next year in directions outlined in the con- vention resolutions. These areas will include off-campus housing, participation in movements such as the Southern students, and co- ordination with student organiza- tions at the University and on other campuses. Report Spies I1n Embassy SCOTTSBLUFF, Neb., (P)-So- viet espionage has extended to the American Embassy in Moscow, Robert Gray, President Dwight D., Eisenhower's cabinet secretary re- ported last night. "The incredulously rude Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev is the leader of a political philosophy so devious that even the sancity of the American Embassy in Mos- cow has not escaped its espion- age," he declared in remarks pre- pared for a Republican fund rais- ing dinner. Gray did not elaborate on the espionage reference. Soviets Ask UN Censure Of America Gromyko, Lodge Talk To Security Council After U-2 Incident UNIED NATIONS (A) - The United States accused the Soviet Union yesterday of maintaining a vast spy network while trying to curb United States efforts to guard against surprise, Communist at- tack. United States Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge made the charge in the United Nations Security Coun- ci. He was replying to a demand from Soviet Foreign Minister An- drei Gromyko that the United States be condemned as an ag- gressor for aerial spying on Soviet territory. Gromyko warned that such action ran the risk of kin- dling the flames of World War III Unless immediate action is taken by the United Nations, Gromyko said, "grave consequences" could result. Double Standard "If it ever should be accepted that the Soviet Union can main- tain a double standard while they have thousands of spies every- where . . . then the free world would surely be in peculiar dan- ger," Lodge asserted. He spoke for only 15 minutes in comparison to an hiur-long speech by Gromyko. The galleries in the council chamber were jammed with both diplomats and ordinary spectators. Gromyko denounced President Dwight D. Eisenhower and accused the United States of perfidy com- parable to that of Japanese diplo mats in Washington just prior to the sneak attack on Pearl Har- bor. He called on the council to request that the United States put an end to such flights. Denies Aggressive Acts But Lodge denied that the United States had committed any aggres- sive acts "against the Soviet Union or any other country, either through its air force or through any other agency of the United States Government." Lodge denied the Soviet charges as "fallacious" and said the United States was glad of the chance to air the issues involved in the Council. Diplomats said there was virtu- ally no chance of the Soviet Union getting a resolution condemning the United States through the Council. In an attempt to ease tension in the wake of the sharp pnited States-Soviet exchange, four of the smaller nations on the Coun- cil introduced a resolution calling for early resumption of East-West negotiations on disarmament and other big issues. The resolution was worked out on the initiative of Sir Claude Corea of Ceylon, President of the Council for May. He opened the meeting with a plea that the Coun- cil take up the issues in an at- mosphere of "calm, detachment, restraint and dignity." Argentina, Ecuador and Tunisia joined Cey- Ion in the move. It noted with regret'that the world's hopes had been dashed for a successful summit meeting in Paris. It said it is now necessary. to "make every effort to restore and strengthen international goodwill and confidence."

In Washington, the FBI and State Department declined comment on the story. Other Washington officials, who asked not to be quoted, confirmed the general accuracy, however. The article said the ex-Gi, r _ HE TOP OF THE STAIRS': ama To Feature Hunter, Hohman ['he landing of a United States Force C-47 transport in Coi- mnist East Germany put the ericans in Russian hands.

The Broadway success, which ran for two season in New York and an additional two years on tour, is considered one of Inge's best plays. According to theatre critics, it reflects what John Gassner described as Inge's "sensitivity to the vibrancies of little lives in the commonplace cgrners of the world." It is concerned with six days in the life of a harness salesman's family in a small Oklahoma town, during the oil boom of the 1920's, when new wealth brought a sudden change in personal values.

The magazine said he had ap- plied for a scholarship offered by the Russians for study in Moscow. When the Russians learned of his crptographlc background, they sent Vadim Kirilyuk, attached to the United Nations secretariat, to visit the young veteran at his home in Springfield, Mass. Kirilyuk told the veteran his scholarship application was com- ing along nicely and eventually suggested that he take a job in Washington handling codes and cryptography with a top United States security agency, the article said. The story continued: "Kirilyuk came back several times, sometimes with a Russian companion, and always amiably brought the conversation around to the subject of cryptography. ______________________________ n:IN
