Republicans charged Democrats were failing on a promise of mu- tual responsibility. Democrats re- plied they would not block the taxes and declared GOP members had the votes to go ahead on their own if they wanted. No Date Set No date was set for a resump- tion of meetings of the 16-mem- ber bipartisan tax compromise committee. "I don't know where we go from here," Se. Frank D. Beadle (R- St. Clair), Republican majority leader, said. In dispute were five bills pro- posed as an adito to the col- lection of money-raising nuisance taxes. They included measures to raise revenue from a liquor excise tax and taxes on petroleum prod- ucts, tobacco products, coin ma- chines and soft drinks. Few Members Only 11 members answered the roll call in the House. But 18 Sen- ators stood by to receive bills for the emergency tax program. En- rollment of the bills yesterday would have made Senate action on them possible late next week. "The opposing party refuses to have any part of these bills," Beadle said. "We won't get any- where until they recognize this is a mutual problem." Sen. Harold M. Ryan (D-De- troit), Democratic spokesman, ob- jected that about half the some 37 bills in the Senate Taxation Committee were introduced by his party. Won't Block "These bills were not disclosed to us until this afternoon," Ryan said. "Whether or not we sign these bills shouldn't deter you. We won't block them and you have the votes to push them along." This was an extension of an early debate in the bipartisan committee. "By signing these bills, Demo- crats would demonstrate they ac- cept mutual responsibility for the tax program," Sen. Carlton H. Morris (R-Kalamazoo) said. "It * doesn't mean you have to like them. I know I don't." "Blank Check" "You just want us to give you a blank check," countered Sen. Basil W. Brown (R-Detroit). "You have the votes to put these in but we don't want you to put the blame on us." Gov. G. Mennen Williams told newsmen later he was "extremely " disappointed that, after a week of discussions Senate Republicans, have shown themselves unwilling to get together." "They are still playing politics with the state's cash crisis, try- ng to get Democratic names on nuisance tax bills which they have been unable to sell to their own caucus," he said. Have Program "The Democrats have a pro- gram. They are ready to stand with it and share responsibility fully for an income tax package suggesetd by one of the Republi- can Senators and based on tax Adjourns; Leaves ituation Unsolved COMMUNISTS ABSOLVED: UN Group Finds No Invasion in Laos UNITED NATIONS (=) - A United Nations fact-finding group reported yesterday it failed to un- cover proof of charges by Laos that it had been invaded by Com- munist troops from North Viet' Nam. But thei four-nation subcom- mittee told the United Nations Se- curity Council it did discover evi- dence that rebels in the restive PRESIDENT EISENHOWER ...tells of visit India Lauds Visit byIke NEW DELHI M) - Indians joined yesterday in welcoming President Dwight D. Eisenhower's plan for a five-day visit next month to India, Communist- badgered leader of the Asian neu- tral bloc. It will be the turning point "in forging closer bonds between the world's two biggest democracies," the Indian Express declared. The British-owned 'Statesman' expressed hope that Eisenhower's visit will impart "a little more realism and restraint" to Red China's campaign to absorb In- dian border territory. P r es i d e n t Rejendra Prasad cabled Eisenhower that the Indian people will receive him with af- fection.. Eisenhower's decision to open the American exhibit at the World Agricultural Fair here Dec. 11 was hailed by agriculture minister Punjabrao Deshmukh as "the big- gest news we could ever have had.' Asian kingdom had r e c e i e d equipment, arms, supplies and the help of political advisers from the Communist regime across the northern border. The long-awaited 32-page re-I port to the 11-nation Council had these immediate repercussions: 1) A United Nations spokesman said Secretary General Dag Ham- marskjold was considering mak- ing a visit to Laos, but it would, have no connection with the re- port to the Council. Hail Report 2) A spokesman for the United States delegation hailed the re- port as one that would "enable the Security Council to better un- derstand the danger that con- fronts Laos." He said the United States was considering what addi- tional steps might be takenin, the United Nations "to further help the Laotian people maintain their freedom and independence." 3) The Soviet delegation de- clared the report caused the col- lapse, "like a card-castle, of the entire heap of absurd charges ad- vanced by the Laotian government and by those who are pursuing it to hamstring the peaceful settle- ment" of the Asian kingdom's problems. 4) Members of the Laotian dele- gation said they had no comment on the report, but asserted the question of foreign intervention in Laos' domestic affairs had been amply demonstrated in previous declarations of Laotian officials. Consultations Next 5) Ambassador Jorge Illueca of Panama, President of the Secur- ity Council, said consultations were taking place among Council members on the next step. Friday night Soviet Deputy For- eign Minister Vasily V. Kuznetsov told reporters his country took a Hilleizapopplin Will Feature Series of Skits Hillelzapoppin, sponsored by the Hillel Foundation will take place at the Ann Arbor High School, at 8 p.m., tonight.

The skits will be judged and a winner selected. negative view of a visit to Laos, by Hammarskjold. Kuznetsov stressed that any Laotian settlement should be based on the 1954 Geneva Agreement setting up an inter- national control commission for Laos. The United Nations spokesman took special pains to deny sugges- tions that a Hammarskjold trip to Laos would be undertaken at the request of any other party ex- cept the Laotian government. The spokesman said Hammar- skjold would make the visit "in his capacity and within his re- sponsibilities as Secretary Gen- eral and at the invitation of the government of Laos." He recalled that Hammarskjold was consulting. with the Laotians on their troubles long before they asked the Security Council last September to send an emergency force to Laos. The report submitted to the Council by the representatives of Argentina, Japan, Italy and Tu- nisia said the warfare in Laos from last July to Oct. 11 was of a guer- rilla character, but appeared to have a centralized coordination.
