Ceylon Ousts
Onl Woman
In Cabinet
COLO BO, Ceylon (P) - Cey-
lon's only woman cabinet member,
Mrs. Vimala Wijewardene, 51 years
old, was fired yesterday and ousted
from the government's coalition
in parliament.
Political sources implied the
wealthy widow was a casualty of
popular feeling over the assassina-
tion. Sept. 25 of Prime Minister
Solomon Bandaranaike, a man she
had occasionally criticized.
This development may bring on
a national election. Her ouster cut
the government's majority to two
in the 96-seat House of Repre-
sentatives. With two government
Ml's out of the country, in India
and Australia, an opposition mo-
tion of no confidence comes up
next month.
Mrs. Wijewardene, widely known
for her tiffs with Bandaranaike,
was dismissed as minister of local
government and housing little
more than three weeks after he
was cut down by a gunman in the
robes of a buddhist monk.
Bandaranaike's successor, Prime
Minister Wijayananda Dahana-
yake, swung the axe when she re-
fused to resign.,
The Prime Minister said if the
government is defeated on the con-
fidence issue he "will not hesitate
to go to the country" for a new
mandate.
IN CALIFORNIA:
Presidents Seek To Ban
Campus Discrimination
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (P) --
California's state college presi-
dents are out to ban discrimina-
tion in their campus organizations
by. 1964.
That is the deadline in a pro-
posed "emergency regulation"
adopted unanimously by the, 14
college heads at a meeting here
Monday.
It will be submitted for approv-
al of the state board of education
at its Nov. 5 meeting.
The regulation would outlaw
state college fraternities, sorori-
ties or other campus groups which
restrict membership on the basis
of race, religion or nationality.
Organizations limited to a local
campus or any nationally-affiliat-
ed groups without discriminatory,
practices would have to file docu-
ments with their schools to :prove
this by Jan. 1, 1960. Proof would
have to be filed annually.
Other organizations would have
until Sept. 1, 1964, to comply
to allow them time to have their
parent body change its policies or
exempt them from discriminatory
practices, the presidents said..
J. Burton Vasche, head of the
education department's state col-
lege division, questioned the need,
for a four-year delay, however,
and suggested that the board of
education might also question it.
",Why not make it right now?"

Vasche asked. "It's the law of the

The presidents themselves cited
recent state anti-discrimination
laws, which "have drawn atten-

Pflan Study
Of Damage
PORTSMOUTH, N.H. OP) - The
Navy said yesterday "apparently
intentional" damage to electrical
cables. of the nuclear submarine
Nautilus has been discovered dur-
ing an overhaul job at the Ports-
mouth Naval Shipyard.
The acting commander of the
Portsmouth Naval Base, Capt. Carl
A. Johnson, said the Navy is con-
ducting an investigation and that
the FBI has been notified.
In Washington, the Navy said
damage, first discovered Oct. 15,
appears to be confined to the elec-
tric system, and "does not extend
to the nuclear reactor plant."
Navy statements followed dis-
closure by the Portsmouth Herald
it had learned of a series of inci-
dents involving "sabotage - type"
damage to the craft.
The newspaper said it learned
the submarine "has been plagued
by a pattern of damage which has
raised suspicion of sabotage."
The world's first atomic-powered
vessel entered Portsmouth ship-
yard July 26 for an extensive over-
haul that was scheduled to be com-
pleted late in February.
The Navy said it is too early to
tell whether the work will be com-
pleted as early as planned and
that further checks will be made
for damage.

Peaceful Use
Of Antarctic
WASHINGTON (P)--A 12-nation
committee drafting an Antarctic
treaty agreed generally yesterday
that the South Polar region should
be used for peaceful purposes only.
The committe also agreed that
all measures of a military nature
should be prohibited.
The agreement was expected to
be ratified without opposition by
the full conference.
The no-war provision was the
first progress reported in closed-
door negotiating sessions which
began last Friday.
Purchasing
Procedures
Called Best
LANSING (/P) - Highway Com-
missioner John C. Mackie said
yesterday he has adopted the hard
but best-in-the-long-run policy on
land buying for the state's huge
road building.
He called the problem "the na-
tion's number one highway head-
ache."
Mackie detailed his policies and
the reasons for pursuing them in
a letter to members of a special
Senate committee set up to inves-
tigate administrative practices in
his department.
He said he had turned his back
on an approach that might have
made him the most popular high-
way commissionet in Michigan
history to pursue a policy "which
I feel is good public business" but
not without its aches and pains.
Places in Forefront
The decision, he said, has helped
place Michigan in the forefront in
construction on the national inter-
state system of highways.
Basically, he said, the depart-'
ment has gone to a single apprai-
sal system in buying right-of-way.
"If the owner can show that we
have overlooked anything of value
in our original appraisal, a reap-
praisal is ordered-another offer
made," Mackie said.
Proceeds with Hearing
If the property owner rejects the
initial valuation estimate, it is the
department's new policy to prd-
ceed with a hearing of necessity,
and when and if necessity is de-
termined, to promptly let con-
struction contracts.
"Compensation .is' then deter-
mined by a local three-man com-
mission appointed by the county
circuit court of probate judge,"
Mackie said.
He said the policy results in,
these three major differences from
procedure followed in the past:
Outlines Differences
1. The department now is "far
more demanding" in appraisal de-
tail.
2. Now, appraisals are made un-
der contract to spell out fees for
this service rather than to allow
a wide latitude in the charges that
could be levied.
3. Horsetrading in determination
of land worth, formerly the rule,
has been eliminated.
Met Resistance
Mackie said that he has accom-
plished the changeover only over
resistance from former members
of the Highway Department right-
of-way staff.
And he said one result has been
that property owners accustomed
to procedures of the past some-
times are left "stunned and an-
gry," having been led to believe
"that we will come back with a
cashbox on the courthouse steps."
To Rule on Legality
r Of Taft-Hartley Law
PITTSBURGH (W) - A federal
judge yesterday heard govern-
ment and union attorneys argue
the pros and cons of a Taft-Hart-
ley injunction to halt the record
98-day steel strike.
He delayed his decision.
The government sought the in-
junction -to send 500,000 steel-
workers back to their jobs for an
80-day "cooling off" period. It
claimed the strike imperils the na-
tion's economic health and safety.
Attorneys for the United Steel-
workers, while admitting the
strike has caused inconvenience
and hardship, contended it does
not now pose a real threat to the
national economy or defense.
Present Cases
Both sides presented their cases
at a 232-hour hearing before
Judge Herbert P. Sorg in United
States District Court.
Lawyers, steelworkers and steel
company executives rubbed shoul-
ders as some 150 spectators
jammed the courtroom. The crowd
overflowed into the corridor.
Shortly before 6 p.m. (EDT),
Judge Sorg recessed court until
10 a.m. today. He may rule then
or sometime later in the day.
Asst. Atty. Gen. George C. Doub
told Judge Sorg President Dwight
D. Eisenhower ordered the Taft-
Hartley proceedings because he
believes the strike is harmful to
the American public.
Sees 'Invasion of Rights'
"Such a strike," Doub argued,
is an invasion of the rights of
the public. We are here today by
virtue of a tragic failure of collec-
tive bargaining."
Doub said that in addition to
the half-million striking steel-
workers, about 265,000 workers in
allied industries have been put out
of work.
Arthur J. Goldberg, the union's
general counsel, said there are no
facts to support the government's
contention that the strike threat-
ens the well-being of the country.
He added: "If an injunction is
granted, the great sacrifices which
the steelworkers have suffered will
have been largely in vain. Their
strike will have been broken."
Part of Bargaining
Goldberg said strikes "are not a
failure of collective bargaining,
but are a part of collective bar-
gaining."
He claimed the section of the
Taft-Hartley law under which the
government brought its petition is
unconstitutional. This is so, he
continued, because it empowers
the courts to issue injunctions
against an act legal in itself --
the right to strike.
Doub argued that the nation's
rocket and space programs are
endangered by shortages of spe-
cialty steels.
He said, "These programs of the
highest national priority require
special and unique types and
shapes of steel which are not ob-
tainable from the comparatively
few mills still in operation or from
imports, and are not inventoried."
Cites 'Dangerous Low'
He said the country's steel re-
serves dropped from a "healthy
24,800,000 tons in July to a dan-
gerously low figure of 10 million
tons now."
The government's 2,500-word
petition seeking the injunction
named the union and 97 steel
Phone NO 2-4786

companies as defendants. These
firms produce some 87 per cent of
the nation's steel.
The union stated its opposition
to use of a Taft-Hartley injunc-
tion in a 12,000-word legal paper.
Government attorneys said the
strikev--- longest industry-wide
steel shutdown in history -- has
closed 310 steel plants, 118 iron
ore mines and 11 transport facili-
ties in 32 states.
Any injunction issued would
cover a maximum of 80 days. Aft-
er that, the union would be free
to continue the strike.
PANEL REPORTS-President Dwight D. Eisenhower (left) receives the findings of his special
panel studying the effects of the 98-day old steel strike on the nation's economy. The group includes,
from the left, John A. Perkins, Paul N. Lehoczky and George W. Taylor, panel chairman.
