Eisenhower wound up a triumphal 40-hour visit to Pakistan Yesterday and with a fond farewell from President Mohammed Ayub Khan took off for a five- hour stop in Afghanistan where he landed at 10:52 p.m. (EST). Later today Eisenhower will fly from Kabul, Afghanistan, to India for his meetings with Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru and India's President Rajendra Prasad under the shadow of the Red China threats to India.

X-Candidate tWins Contest ;JI Of Ap Of Aplause NEW YORK (? - 'e Demo- crats held a contest of 1960 Pres- idential possibilities this weekend and, based on appl'ause, the win- ner was Adlai E. Stevenson. Stevenson says he isn't seeking the nomination. The occasion was a dinner hon- oring the 75th birthday of Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt. It came at the end of weekend meetings in New York of the Democratic ad- visory council. More than 1,000 Democrats paid $100 a plate to attend the event and look over the field. When dinner ended, the cur- tains parted on a stage. And there, seated in a semi-circle with Mrs. Roosevelt and former President Harry Truman in the middle, were three United States Senators, Roar! Gov. G. Mennen Williams told the group that the Republicans want to "stay in the valley of complacency." "Nobody here, I venture to say, has had more personal ex- perience than I," he continued. "As a sort of Democratic Daniel in the Republican lions' den out in Michigan, I have seen the Republican Party stand firmly and fight bravely against the 20th century. , "I bear the scars of that battle." three governors - and Steven- son - all of whom have been mentioned for the Democratic nomination next year. Truman called them to speak. He said he would proceed geo- graphically, moving from west to east across the continent. That brought Edmund G. (Pat) Brown, governor of California, up first. Then came Sen. Hubert Humphrey (D-Minnesota), and Sen. Stuart Symington, (D-Mis- souri). Having now reached the middle west, Truman called on Steven- son, who said, "I wasn't sup- posed to be included in the com- pany of these handsome; hairy young men" - a reference to his own baldness - "and I'm a little at a loss what to say in view of your assumption that I'm still alive." Nevertheless, he rose. So did many people in the audience. Cheers and clapping racketed through the ballroom. Michigan's Gov. G. Mennen Williams, New Jersey's Gov. Rob- ert B. Meyner, and Sen. John Kennedy of Massachusetts fol- lowed in order. Seek Removal Of Red Troops UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (P) - airport from Ayub Khan's home. Smiles Broadly He was all smiles at the airport, as if he had thoroughly enjoyed the stay in -Pakistan, itmilitary ally of the United States. Eisenhower inspected an honor guard of Pakistan army, navy and air force men. In a brief statement President Eisenhower said his stay in Pakis- tan had been too brief and he would like to come again. The United States chief execu- tive thanked the Pakistani presi- dent for his hospitality. "We have learned a lot about your country in this visit," Eisen- hower said. "Good luck and goodby to Pakis- tan." With a broad smile Eisenhower shook hands with Ayub Khan. Presidents Walk The two presiderks then walked to Eisenhower's big glistening jet transport. A 21-gun salute split the morning stillness just as the sun peeped over the horizon. The President's son, Maj. John Eisenhower, in civilian clothes, and his, wife Barbara in a gray suit and bright red hat accompanied the President into the plane. Six Pakistani air force jets- part of the United States military assistance program - took off in advance and streamed down the runway and into the air as an advance guard for the President's plane. Eisenhower already had won cheers in India. In upper house parliamentary debate at New Del- hi on the eve of his arrival, Nehru referred to the President as a messenger of peace. The members cheered and pounded their desks in response. Members Urge Members of his congress party in parliament urged Nehru to ac- cept foreign aid if China openly attacks. Nehru still clings to. a policy of non-alignment in the cold war. As the end of his Pakistan visit drew near, Eisenhower delivered a speech in which he posed the hope of improved international relations, but made clear the United States' firm stand beside Pakistan in upholding free nations against any agression. In his speech, one of the major efforts of his 19-day trip, the President urged all national lead- ers worthy of that designation to join in a truly enforceable system of disarmament. Addresses Pakistanis He spoke to more than 15,000 Pakistanis, some of them in the raggy clothing that betokens the relative poverty of this part of the world. Mankind's latest scientific achievements in the military field make it mandatory to reach an agreement on disarmament, he said, adding: "There is no reason to hesitate in this great undertaking. "There can be no winner in any future global war. The world, the entire world, must insist that the conference table, rather than force, is to be used for settlement of in- ternational disputes." Then, in a joint declaration summing up two days of talks, Eisenhower and President Ayub Khan of Pakistan stressed the need of cooperation among free na+tin.in nrim at, h+ +v r.min PAKISTAN FAREWELL-President Eisenhower is shown here with Pakistan President Mohammed Ayub Khan waving to the crowds on his trip to the airport in Karachi.

FACULTY SALARIES UP: Columbia University Raises Tuition IGY Head, A ponted To 'U' Job The former international head of the International Geophysical Year, Sydney Chapman, has been appointed senior research scientist by the University's science and technology institute. Institute director Robert R. White announced his appoint- ment, saying Chapman is the first senior research scientist appointed. Chapman undertook his duties Sunday and will serve until Feb. 20. As a senior research scientist, he will lecture and consult with engineers and scientists on ap- propriate research activities. He has also been chosen to present the commencement ad- dress at the University's mid-year Commencement Exercises Jan. 16. Chapman is known for his work- as solar-terrestrial physicist and has been a professor of geophysics at the University of Alaska since 1951. Since 1955, he has held a position on the research staff of the High Altitude Observatory in Boulder, Col. In 1953 Chapman was appointed a visiting professor to the Uni- versity astronomy department. Since then, he has intermittently served as consultant to the Uni- versity Research Institute and visiting lecturer in several en- gineering and science departments. TOPIcK TWO For Board Student appointments to the Committee on Referral will be an- nounced at the Student Govern- ment Council meeting at 7:30 p.m. today. One undergraduate and one graduate student will be appointed. Council sponsorship of a debate on the City Drinking Ordinance will also be discussed at the meet- ing. According to Toger Seasonwein, '61, SGC Executive Vice-President, there is a feeling among Council members that in view of the suc- cess of the last debate, another would be worth while. Lobbyists Protest Nuisance Taxes Liquor, Tobacco, Beer Spokesmen Term New Levy 'Unfair Burden' LANSING (Al) - Spokesmen for liquor, beer and tobacco indus- tries rose up in protest yesterday against proposed taxes which would tap drinkers and smokers for $26 million a year. They told the House Taxation Committee higher taxes would en- courage bootlegging, damage manufacturing and wholesaler and re- tail businesses and load an unfair burden on one segment of Michi- gan's population. The proposed new levies are the heart of a $34 million package of nuisance taxes passed last week by the Senate in a last-ditch move to wrap up a new revenue pro- gram in the 1959 legislative ses- sion. A three-cent tax on telephone and telegraphs would produce an- other eight million dollars. Rep. Rollo G. Conlin (R-Tip- , ton), Taxation Committee chair- man, said the bills probably would k be sent to the House floor without committee recommendation for t passage. He said he doubted the package would come up for a vote before next week. GOP tax strategists in the House plan to back other legisla- tion to boost the Senate package by 15 to 25 million dollars. Cur- rently in favor are a one mill in- crease in the corporation fran- chise fee, worth 13 millions, and a five-dollar tax on moving traffic violations, which would bring in six millions. "House action might be held up on the Senate package until DAVID OISTRAKH the new bills put in an appear- gives concert ance and the House has some as- surance that they will pass in the a Senate," Conlin said.

President Grayson Kirk dis- closed Monday an increase in stu- dent tuition from $1,100 to $1,450 per year. There are raises in minimum salaries for the faculty from $500 to $1,500, he continued. The tuition rise will affect 18,- 000 students in Columbia's 16 di- visions. It was caused by "basic financial problems that confront Columbia University in common with virtually all other American colleges and universities," he said. After Monday's meeting of the university, trustees adopted the new tuition rate, President Kirk said, "The action has as its com- pelling reason the imperative need for increases in salaries for facul- ty members." Becomes Effective The minimum salary, effective July 1, has been increased for in- structors by $500 to $5,500; for as- sistant professors by $1,000 to $6,500; for associate professors by $1,500 to $8,000, and for full pro- fessors by $1,000 to $11,000. The tuition for all Columbia di- visions, except the School of So- cial Work, is now $1,100, plus up to $100 in fees. Tuition at the so- cial work school is $900. Starting in September, full- time students will pay (1) $1,450 in Columbia College, the Under- graduate School of Engineering, the School of Medicine, and the School of Public Health; (2) Tuition climbed to $1,400 in the Graduate School of Journal- ism, School of Architecture, Grad- uate School of Business, and School of Dental and Oral Sur- gery. Notes Increase (3) It reached $1,300 in the Graduate Faculties, School of In- ternational Affairs, G r a d u a t e School of Engineering and School of Library Service; (4) Total tuition is $1,280 in the Coeds Rise In Number Coeds are catching up with men in numbers in spite of the nearly two to one ratio of men to women in Michigan's colleges and univer- sities. Michigan's institutions of higher education enrolled 95,557 men and 51,798 women this fall, according to figures compiled by Edward G. Groesbeck, University director of registration and records. Compared to last year, women's enrollment increased by 5,457, while enrollment of men increased by only 2,888. Among freshmen, the coeds' increase outdistanced the mens', 1,754 to 1,570. Fall enrollments at the states largest universities show that women make up a high percentage of the freshmen classes. Of the University's 3,216 freshmen, 1,505 are women. At Michigan State University, 1,901, out of 4,300 freshmen are women. And at Wayne State University there are 750 men and 750 women in this year's freshman class. School of General Studies and the Program in the Arts; (5) Yearly academic costs are $1,250 in the School of Law and $1,100 in the School of Social Work. The rise will mean that the av- erage student in the college, tak- ing 15 points or five courses each semester, will be paying $45 a point. In his statement, President Kirk emphasized two' things. He said that "Columbia will assure each student now enrolled that he will not be obliged to leave for finan- cial reasons before reaching his educational goal." Tuition Insufficient He added that currently student tuition at Columbia takes care of only 40.5 per cent of educa- tional costs. Financial aid in the form of scholarships, f e 11 o w s h i p s and loans will be increased where needed to help meet the rise, President Kirk said. The rise in tuition and fees brings Columbia up to the level of other schools in the Ivy League. The university has raised tui- tion five times since 1945, when the costs ran to $550 a year, or $12 for each credit. The executive committee of Co- lumbia University's Student Coun- cil reacted immediately following the announcement of the tuition increase. The Council issued a statement saying it "is unalterably opposed to the manner in which the pro- posed tuition rise was presented to Columbia's student body."

" , , OSBORNE'S 'GEORGE DILLON': BEpytaphF Termed Difficult by By SUSAN FARRELL Court Refuses Davis's Plea; Contempt Citation Still Stands -WASHINGTON (A)-The Supreme Court Monday refused to review the contempt of Congress conviction of Horace Chandler Davis, who refused to answer questions by a House Subcommittee on Un- American Activities. Davis appeared before the group in Lansing, Mich., on May 10, 1954, in response to a subpoena. He refused to say whether he had ever been a Communist Party member, or if he knew of Communist activities while he was a student at Harvard. Davis was employed for a time as a mathematics teacher at the University. A United States District Judge in Michigan found Davis guilty of contempt of Congress and imposed a sentence of $250 fine and six months in jail. Davis questioned in his appeal to the Supreme-Court whether an investigative committee of Con- gress has power to compel testi- mony as to a private citizen's ideas, his associations, or his ac- tivities in recommending his ideas J o others. He also questioned the power of a committee to conduct a pub- lic hearing "designed to direct un- reasoning scorn, obloquy and ridi- cule by the public upon a political doctrine, and upon a witness if he does not repudiate the doctrine." The Supreme Court order deny- ing a hearing to Davis noted that Justices Douglas and Black fa- 4 <;vored granting a hearing. There Is a common feature be- tween the leading violinists of United States and Soviet, Ois- trakh maintained, because many remarkable United States violin- ists are from Russian schools-- for example, Mischa Mischokoff, concert master of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. "The Russian school for the art- ist gives much opportunity," he continued, "but it is necessary for the students to have initiative." Helps Develop Talent "The school can help the tal- ented musician to develop, but he must be willing to work hard." For no one can rise up to the level of a professor in Russia and abroad, Oistrakh continued, if he is not eager. "And even though the student is talented and attends good schools," the eminent violinist maintained, "he must be resource- ful." Arrangements for Olstrakh's North American tour were nego- tiated with the Ministry of Cul- ture of the Union of Soviet So- cialist Republics under the exist- ing agreement between the United States and the Soviet Union pro- viding for cultural exchanges. This is his second tour of the United States; his debut here was made at Carnegie Hall, Nov. 20, 1955. Performs at 12 His first performance was given at the age of 12, playing the Beethoven Concerto in the pres- ence of Prokofieff. Oistrakh first attracted world attention when he took first prize i ,. -- T,, n 4nnisAalti anA vea "The love of art and the desire to be an artist is often quite separate from te ability to produce," Prof. Hugh Z. Norton, director of the Playbill production opening today, said. John Osborne's "Epitaph for George Dillon" is a presentation of this "great problem of the young artist," Prof. Norton explained. The problem is known both here and in England and especially in England in the privation of the postwar period, Prof. Norton said. And Osborne wrote about it very vividly and extremely well. Directed Summer Play Prof. Norton also directed the production of Osborne's "Look Back in Anger," presented last summer. "It+ is the name play of the angry young men," he said. "And it is savagely cruel. But 'Epitaph for George Dillon' shows Osborne's gentle and compassionate side, however unhappy it might be." George Dillon is a young actor and playwright who slowly dis- covers that in spite of critical ability he is unable to deliver his appre- ciation of art. He is out of harmony with the level of society in which he must live and incanable of the exercise of a brilliant artistic talent which I . . -
