LXX, No. 63 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1959 FIVE CENTS SIX PAGES House Sets Hearing On Nuisance Taxes Bill's Opponents To Air Complaints Before Conlin Taxation Committee Opponents of Michigan's potential nuisance taxes will air their complaints before the House taxation committeee in Lansing today as the Legislature prepares to enter the next-to-last week of its 1959 session. The tax committee, chaired by Rollo G. Conlin (R-Tipton), took a hard look yesterday at the bills passed last week by the Senate-and may report them out without recommendation. It would then require a majority 56 votes to even bring the Senate's $36 million nuisance taxes to a floor vote, and another ma- jority to pass the bill as it presently stands. GOP Representatives Ikse Cheered by Pakistanis uring Thi-rd Tour Break lEisenhower City Police Seek 'Chain' t Letter Rin By THOMAS HAYDEN Ann Arbor police are looking * for the source of an illegal chain letter lottery which promises citi- zens and University students a quick return of over $2,000. The chain letters, which began appearing on campus this week, are already "quite prevalent," ac- cording to Johin Bingley, assistant dean of men. Sgt. Louis Staudenmeier of the city police force said last night, "We'll take action if we can run down the source." He said the lottery "is pretty well spread out," however. Violates Law Lottery via the mails violates state laws. The chain letter, l a b e l e d "Christmas, Fall, Winter, and Spring," reads in parts "Pay for your vacation, past or future. Now is the time and your chance to prepare for a top-notch vacation or Christmas. "This special will assure you of enough ready cash to put the ex- tra bill away and bring out the thrills. "This has many advantages, some of which are: 1) short list, fast payoff, 2) earn a minirum of $3 for your effort, 3) at no time are you out more than $6, 4) no 60 days waiting period to cash in on the results." Names on List Each "player" receives a check for three dollars and a mailing list of five names.' After paying the "seller" six dollars, he becomes the fifth party on the changing list, and the first name receives his payoff. "This is sure fire and with the initial payment of $3 you will re- ceive a total of $2,190 if the chain is not broken," the letter says. The chain letter patter erupt- ed about two years ago with a similar situation, Staudenmeier said, "and since then it has come to our attention a number of times." U .S. Offers To Help Track Red Satellite PASADENA, Calif. (A) - The United States offered yesterday to make its global satellite tracking network available to support the -Soviet man-in-space program. T. Keith Glennan, head of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, said the United States already has set a precedent for this action by providing So- viet scientists with 46 tape re- cordings of signals from the Rus- sian Sputnik satellites as part of the observance of the Interna- tional Year (IGY). "As an evidence of our interest in international cooperation we would be most happy to offer the services of our tracking network in support of the scientists of the Soviet Union when and if that nation undertakes a manned space flight program," Glennan said in a talk prepared for deliv- ery before the Institute of World Affairs. He said data could be acquired and transmitted in its raw state tc the Academy of Sciences in Mos- cow. If special equipment were required, he said, the United States would either provide it or use equipment furnished by Rus- sia. are almost certain to balk at the bill if no more taxes are added. They may force a 15 to 25 mil- lion dollar increase in the total package, then send the batch back to the Senate chambers for more consideration during the waning days of the record session which opened Jan. 14. If the package is stalled in the Senate, lawmakers may just go home until January, when the next session convenes. One member of Conlin's com- mittee who looked over the Sen- ate's bill yesterday told The Daily "they'll never pass by themselves" --meaning additional taxes will have to be added to get House approval. He said committee members "looked pretty shaky" to com- mittee members. An in-creased corporate franchise tax may be one of the proposed appendages. The Senate's $36 million collec- tion would provide new or in- creased taxes on beer, liquor, to- bacco products and telephones. It was passed last week on a party line vote, the Democrats holding out for some form of state income tax. Businessmen who would be hit by the taxes will present their cases before Conlin's committee in the public hearing at 2:30 p.m. * today. They include Detroit brewers, brewery workers, distillers, cigar- ette interests, cigar makers, vend- ing machine operators and Michi- gan Bell Telephone Co. spokes- men. Also appearing will be John C. Mackie, state highway commis- sioner, whose road equipment may be taxed-amounting tovthe state Staxing itself for new revenues, Oistrakh Gives Violin Concert 5In 'U', Series, R Russian violinist David Ois- - trakh will give the second concert of the Extra Series at 8:30 to- night in Hill Aud.

Chairman from Chicago One of the other private mem- bers, Frank Bane of Chicago, re- cently retired director of the Coun- cil of State Counselors, was named chairman. Created by Congress in Sep- tember as a result of the Hoover Commission recommendation 10 years ago of which Prof. Pollock was a member, the advisory group will hold its first meeting Monday in Washington. Public Law No. 380, which pro- vides for the Commission, says the function of the Commission is to provide information for the "full- est cooperation and coordination of activities between the levels of government" in light of the present and future "complexity of modern life" due to population growth and scientific developments. European-U.S. Analyst Prof. Pollock, who has been with the University for 35 years, is a specialist in elections and political parties in both this country and Europe. He was special advisor to the American Military in Germany from 1945-48 and to the High Commissioner in 1950.

It will establish an intern pro- gram in instruction on Asio un- der which three college-level in- structors and three graduate stu- dents will study each year at the University. "Many small colleges have ex- pressed interest in expanding m- struction of the history, political science and related studies of the non-European world, but Asian studies instructors "often are handicapped by inadequate area training, scarcity of library ma- terials and lack of contact in the field," Prof. William D. Schorger of the anthropology and Near Eastern studies department point- ed out. He is chairman of the Univer- sity's Asian studies committee, first in the nation to offer such courses at the undergraduate level A second provision of the three- year Carnegie grant will continue this survey course, "Introduction to Asian Civilizations," which was first offered in the fall of 1958. The funds will also finance re- search projects, including a study of political action and expression in southwest and south Asia. [ Under the internship program, the college teachers and "fellow" will spend a year, at the University - observing the Asia course, learning about bibliographies and teaching aids in the field, and at- tending related Asian area and language courses.

ECONOMIC COMEBACK: Gies Predicts Boom Due to Auto Increase Barring a railroad walk-out or avresumption of the steel strike, 1960 will be Michigan's "comeback year," Prof. Thomas Gies of the business administration school forecast for the Michigan County Road Commissioners convention. Speaking yesterday in Grand Rapids, Prof. Gies said enthusiastic acceptance of the 1960 models is a key factor in a 40 per cent increase in output of major durable consumer goods now scheduled for 1960. Production of these goods "appears certain to top all previous records," he declared. Favorable sales expectations have led the auto industry to boost its capital outlay schedule for 1960 by 30 per cent over 1959. This is about three times the rise ex- pected for industry as a whole next year," he noted. "County officials budgeting for the coming year can expect gen- erally higher returns from both state-collected, locally shared rev- enues and from those taxes which are strictly local," he added. Gies said that the exceptional level of activity anticipated for Michigan in its "comeback" year will raise motor fuels revenues and license collections by four per cent from the 1959 level, more than twice the increase recorded in the past year. "This means that total tax reve- nues from motor fuels will reach $142 to $143 million, compared with preliminary estimates of $138 million for 1959," he asserted. "Motor vehicle license fee col- lections will move up to nearly $71 million in 1960, compared with the $68 million expected for this year."

Taylor said yesterday the nation's Joint Chiefs of Staff sys- tem has failed to function as in- tended, and should be abolished. He recommended the substitu- tion of a single defense chief of staff. Taylor, Army chief of staff from 1955 to his retirement this year, made the recommendation in an article in Look magazine. The joint chiefs, he wrote, "have failed to produce an agreed military strategy of their own. The chiefs have either swept controversial issues under the rug or submitted divided views to the Secretary of Defense." In an effort to preserve some harmony, Taylorsad, "Secretaries of Defense have been reluctant to make decisions on fundamental issues dividing the joint chiefs, and have not forced the sub- merged controversies into the open." City Group Votes.down Ives' Move By DONNA MOTEL City Council last night approved plans to establish a non-partisan Neighborhood Improvement Com- mittee to study and investigate, urban renewal and report back to the Council., They defeated Councilman,' Lloyd Ives' resolution to engage a disinterested, processional firm to study the long-standing problem. The approved citizen's commit- tee will work toward solutions of sub-standard housing and try to develop plans to rehabilitate and maintain other dwellings at ac- cepted standards. Consider Immediate Troubles It will consider the immediate housing difficulties before study- ing problems involving commer- cial enterprises, zoning and traffic. The committee had. been pre- viously recommended by J. Gor- don McDonald, chairman of Mayor Cecil O. Creal's committee for voluntary rehabilitation. ., An Advisory Committee on Neighborhood Rehabilitation, com- posed of bankers, realtors, archi- tects, builders and others with similar professiodal interests will be appointed by the mayor, with the advice and consent of Council, to give professional and technical advice to the neighborhood com- mittee. Establishes Office The Council will also establish the office of Housing Coordinator under the direction of the city administrator to implement the work of the Neighborhood Com- mittee and to provide liaison and continuing effort. Ives felt that the citizens' com- mittee set up to study the prob- lem would be inadequate and weak. The professional firm would be capable of making local investiga- tions to study the area's needs and suggesting methods to bring the properties of the area up to city standards, he indicated. The Council also heard the pro- posal of the recently formed City Bus Company to extend bus serv- ice running between the dormi- tories on Observatory St. to State St. This service would be offered from 8-11 and 12-5 daily except Sundays and holidays. Hours Because of circumstances ex- ternal to MUSKET's control, the program on Wednesday and Thursday evenings, Dec. 3 and 4, began later than they had previously planned. Begins Talks With Khan Honors Jinnah Tomb, Presented Award, Sightsees in 'opter KARACHI (A) - President Dwight D. Eisenhower, cheered by a million Pakistanis in a welcome he called "tremendous," turns to- day to talks with the nation's leaders on his mission of peace. Eisenhower and his advisers will meet President Mohammed Ayub Khan and members of his govern- ment at a morning conference on this second day of 40-hour stay in Pakistan. The President later will lay a wreath at the tomb of M. A. Jinnah, founder of Pakistan. After a stag luncheon given by Ayub Khan, the President will at- tend a citizens' welcome at the Polo Ground, where there is ex- pected to be another popular demonstration of affection for the United States visitor. Ayub Khan will introduce Eisen- hower and the American president will respond. After an afternoon of sightseeing by helicopter with Ayub Khan, Eisenhower will give a dinner for his host at the United States embassy. To Visit Afghanistan Tomorrow Eisenhower leaves by plane for Kabul, Afghanistan, fourth stop on his goodwill visit to three continents. At the end of a full day yester- day, Eisenhower received Pakis- tan's highest civil award for his campaign in behalf of world peace. Then the nation's leaders turned out to honor him at a dinner. After dinner, Eisenhower went out on the lawn of the presidential residence for a concert by the Pakistani army bagpipe band and a performance by sword swing northwest frontier tribal dancers. Observes New Things "Some of the things here I've never seen before," Eisenhower ob- served. The crowd welcoming the first United States president to come this far into Asia was officially estimated at a million. At one point, police had to press them back with a show of batons. Never before had Pakistanis given such a thunderous reception to a visitor from abroad. Beside Ayub Khan Eisenhower traveleddown packed, gaily deco- rated streets to. the cry: "Eisenhower zindabad!" "Long live Eisenhower!" Dwarfs Reception The outpouring of enthusiasm dwarfed even the reception by half a million Turks Sunday at An- kara, second stop on Eisenhower's 22,000-mile journey to 11 nations. The crowds passed in closely just before Eisenhower and Ayub Khan changed from the open convertible that had brought them from the airport to a gilded coach for the final drive to the presi- dential residence, Eisenhower's home while here. Eisenhower lost no time in open- ing discussions with Ayub Khan, whose nation is associated with both the Southeast Asia and Cen- tral Treaty Organizations. Court Rejects Student Appeal On 'Wisdom' TRENTON, N.J. (I)-The New Jersey Supreme Court dismissed yesterday a suit by a young wis- dom seeker. The court decided that Roy G. Jacobsen had not wisely brought a suit for $8,065 against Columbia University, charging that it frau- dudently promised to teach him wisdom and failed to deliver. In a terse one-paragraph. opin- ion, the court said Jacobson fol- lnwed the wrnnr nocedure in I 0 WILLOW RUN EXODUS: ANTSCO May Follow Airlines to Metropolitan By CAROL LEVENTEN If the seven commercial airlines remaining at .the University's Willow Run Airport transfer to Detroit Metropolitan Airport, a na- tional airlines service company may follow them, its directors said yesterday. If so, the University will have .to find means to compensate for the approximately $87,000 it grosses annually from the airlines service in various fees. Decision Uncertain The airlines "may or may not" take ANTSCO, Airlines National Terminal Service Company, Inc., with them, "but I don't exactly have a crystal ball to look into our future with," Robert Miller, director, added. In its present lease, ANTSCO pays the University $15,000 in annual rental and 10 per cent of all non-airline profits over $250,000. ANTSCO's income is partially derived from newsstands, parking lots and restaurants. J,.
