LVI, No. 72 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1946 PRICE FIVE CENTS Ruthven Requests Funds in Behalf of Veterans Is Passeb Hos Large Majority Approves Measure; Strong Opposition in Senate Expected By The Associated Press WASHINGTON, Feb. '7-Strike control legislation going far beyond what President Truman requested won smashing House approval today, but opponents said it would get a cool reception in the Senate. The House steam-rollered through, by a 258 to 155 roll call vote, the far-reaching measure introduced by Rep. Case (Rep., S.D.) and backed by a powerful coalition of Republicans and Southern Democrats. On the final ballot 149 Republicans and 109 Democrats voted for the n Dean Walter Tightens Rules On Cheating Students Giving Help Also Considered Guilty Steps are being taken to rectify the prevailing condition of student dishonesty in examinations in the literary college, Associate Dean Erich A. Walter announced yesterday. Dean Walter said that the College's Administrative Board approved pub- lication of the following resolutions in a recent meeting: 1. That all examinations be proc- tored and that the instructor or pro- fessor responsiile for the course take charge of the proctoring. 2. That students be told in ad- vance of all final examinations that only blue books are to be brought to the examination, and that all other books and papers are to be left at home. 3. That a special effort be made to arrange the seating at examina- tions so that students occupy alter- nate seats. 4. That if the examination room is too small to provide such an ar- rangement, two different sets of ex- aminations must be provided. 5. That whenever feasible, all ex- amination questions be polycopied. The Administrative Board had the problem of dishonesty brought to its attention by both faculty members and students, Dean Walter said. He said that all members of the literary college facult'y had been notified of the Board's resolutions by special letter in which the fol- lowing procedure in reporting cases of dishonesty was recommended: A proctor who apprehends a stu- dent using a crib should pick up the evidence at the same time that he accuses the suspect. A student so ac- cused should be denied the privilege of continuing the examination and should be reported to the Adminis- trative Board as soon as practicable. The same procedure should be fol- lowed when a student receives from, or gives help to, another student dur- ing an examination. nbill, with 120 Democrats, 33 Republi- cans and two minor party members against. House leaders said privately, however, that Senate Democrats would line up strongly against it. They predicted the Senate would greatly modify the measure or per- haps reject it entirely. Bitter Protests House passage came despite bitter protests of close friends of organ- ized labor that it would strip workers of their rights and promote indus- trial strife. Case and his supporters denied this and argued that sweeping action is needed to protect the public interest when labor and management dis- agree. Two Angles The Case bill attacks the problem from two principal angles. First, it authorizes creation of a federal mediation board with author- ity to step into major labor disputes and forbid strikes or lockouts for 30 days while it seeks to solve them. The board would include representatives of the public, workers and employers, Court injunctions would be permit- ted to enforce the cooling-off period. New Regulations Second, it sets forth a number of new regulations to apply in labor- management relations. These would: 1. Provide for civil suits against either labor or management for breaking contracts. 2. Outlaw violence in picketing by either side. (Violators would be sub- ject to court injunctions). 3. Ban boycotts used to force dis- putants to come to terms. Sponsors said this would prevent many juris- dictional controversies. (Violators would face loss of their reemployment rights and bargaining powers. Also court injunctions could be used to insure movement of perishable goods.) Bevin Cal'ls Ukraicniaxn Charge Liee By The Assocated Press LONDON, Feb. 7-Foreign Secre- tary ErnesthBevin of Britain answered "lie" tonight to a Ukranian charge in the United Nations Security Coun- cil that British soldiers were used to suppress the national movement of the Indonesian people. UkraindrCharge Ukrainian foreign commissar, Dmi- tri Manuilsky, opened the council's session with a statement that "the es- sence of the Ukrainian declaration on Indonesia is that it considers it in- admissible that British troops should be used for suppression of the na- tional movement of the Indonesian people." Hee proposed that the council send a special commission to the Nether- lands East Indies for an "on-the- spt" investigation, but he specifically said the Ukraine did not ask with- drawal of British troops from the Is- lands. Peace Not Menaced The Ukrainian delegate said that his delegation "had ground for ex- pressing surprise that the British used Japanese troops in British oper- ations against the Indonesian people." Bevin declared that since Manuil- sky did not ask withdrawal of the British troops, there was no ground for a charge that the presence of troops was a menace to peace. Dr. Bond Says job Issue Vital Praises Pending New Employment Measure "qur failure to solve known prob- lems in the social, political, and eco- nomic fields can be disastrous-far more so, in fact, than our failure to push forward technical frontiers," Dr. Floyd A. Bond of the department of economics declared last night at the Ameican Veterans Committee meeting, aserting that "the problem of employment is one of the most vital problems facing our genera- tion." The Full-Employment Bill S. 380 now in Congress sets forth a national policy in four distinct steps. "This bill, if properly and firmly administered," Dr. Bond asserted, "would accomplish the purposes in- tended by the average citizen of this present age. This law is being sought because the overwhelming majority of the American people wish to avoid the peaks and valleys of inflation and deflation. They ar'e demanding an intelligent program which will safeguard the country from the des- tructive effects of periodic unem- ployment and destitution." Dr. Bond pointed out that during the dismal decade of the thirties, 100,000,000 man-years of labor were lost in these United States. "Even as late as January of 1940, we still had close to 10,000,000 men unem- ployed. Thus we did not solve our unemployment problem; the war did it for us." "Our problem for the post war period," Dr. Bond stated, "is quite different from our problems of the thirties." At that time we were try- ing to get out of a depression and the problem is thus one of trying to maintain that level. Such is the pur- pose of the Employment Act of 1946 reported out of conference committee last Saturday." ~~ \ -sE.MENDD TFR NOW-L :IALTh 4-su. s s arAa j Pnc rt n e rc e fNGt eN s d iLn ds ss- tatesof te welthy Esttes aed ( odn amgesndpner)r merhe vyw ig t c'm Ge e ne y; Mrs. < R e T p i gs ca re s mile stei (shaedaran Conlsneit Westchester Co) nty, N.Y., rcninendd fothe).

Bennett, Dean of the School of Architecture and Design, announces the following regulations which will be effective in the archi- tecture school, beginning March 4: 1) If a student is absent from a course in which he is registered, dur-_ ing the first week of the semester, he will automatically be dropped from the course. Exception will be made for veterans entering the university at the beginning of the term. For other students this applies to the Bpring term and will not go into ef- fect as a result of grades made this term 2) A student may not elect any course in the most important se- quence in his curriculum uiless he has received a grade of C or better in the preceding course of the sequence. This is understood to include basic as well as major sequences in both free- hand drawing and design for all stu- dents in the design program. 3) The student may reelect the course in question in order to raise his grade.

The article, by Post writer Harold Titus, a resident of Traverse City, describes the work in adult educa- tion which is today increasing by leaps and bounds by telling the ac- tivities of the Michigan Extension Service. NY Site Opose By Vanenbyr Claims Purchase Cost IS Too 'Xtravagant' LONDON, Feb. 7-(P)--U, S. Sena- tar Arthur H. Vandenberg said to- night the United Nations site com- mittee's recommendation for the pur- chase of 45 square miles of high priced land in the North Greenwich- Stamford area was "fabulously ex- travagant." Appearing before the administra- tive and budgetary committee, Van- denberg said the United Nations headquarters should not be larger than a comfortable college campus. Referring to proposals to spend $70,000,000 on land and buildings, he added that "the United Nations should show its worth through deeds and not through money. Let us not mistake pomp and power." Vandenberg's criticism of the site committee's recommendation came as a French proposal to postpone a decision on a permanent home site in the United States until September or possibily longer gained new idhei- ents. The U. S. delegation generally fa- vored the idea of allowing the selec- tion of a permanent site to be held in abeyance for a time. "Times have changed," Titus says. "The old folks are going to school. Facilities of the country's adult ed- ucation program are creaking under the load as they enroll by the hun- dreds of thousands." After receiving a long-distance call from Jackson, the Extension Service arranged a series of institutes for people who are planning to build their own homes. Members of the faculty of the School of Architecture and design are now giving these courses in 11 Michigan communities. This is an example of the way in which extension work meets the de- mands of the people themselves. Extension courses in a variety of subjects are being offered by the universities today. Activities of the Michigan division described in the Post article include the discussion group on current books, of which Prof. Wesley H. Maurer of the jour- nalism department is chairman, the courses given for Detroit firemen, the amateur band and orchestra which meets every week at the De- troit Rackham building, and many others. Navy Releases Patrol Plans WASHINGTON, Feb. 7--(i)-Thce Navy plans to carry out its post-war patrol of the nation's sea frontiers by allocating 60 per cent of the fleet to the Pacific and 40 per cent to the Atlantic with two striking forces in each ocean. This set-up became evident in a study of the annual report of Secre- tary Forrestal, which contains a list- ing of the ships assigned to the ac- tive and zready reserve fleets, e list accouits for 176 combatant ships in the active fleet for the Pacific, 143 in the Atlantic. FEPC Filibuster M ay.Draw T o j C'lse Tomorrowu Four Week Debate Sees Bloc Win Out ASBy The Associated Press WASHINGTON, Feb. 71-Backers of the Fair Employment Practices Bill virtually .threw in the sponge late today and arrangements were underway to end a four-week fili- buster southerners have conducted against the measure. The Senate agreed to vote at 4 p. m., Saturday, on a motion to limit debate. On all sides, legislators pre- dicted privately that the two thirds majority needed to carry this mo- tion would not be forthcoming, and that the bill would be shelved. The measure would have set up a three mari commission to guard against discrimination in employ- ment because of race, creed, color or religion. Southerners, on their long fight against the bill, argued variously that it was an invasion of state's rights and would increase racial ten- sion. Senator Bilbo (D-Miss.) con- tended it was an attempt to "mon- grelize" the American people by let- ting down barriers between the white and negro people. Some southerners also opposed the bill, although stating their agree- ments with its objectives, but many others backed it as necessary to end injustices and vindicate the prin- ciples for which the war was fought. Amendment Aids Veterans Provides for Liberal Increased Payments A new amendment to the G.I. Bill of Rights provides for additional sub- sistences and pension s for veterans, ClarkTibbitts of the Veterans Ser- vice Bureau stated yesterday. "Some veterans here have been receiving two checks this month as a result of this amendment and have been questioning about it," Tibbitts said. Subsistence Increase The amendment provides for an increase in the standard subsistence allowance for veterans. It is now $65 a month for single veterans and $90 for married ones. Disabled veterans benefit by provisions in the amend- ment because disabled veterans will get the standard subsistence plus ad- ditional pensions. The amendment states that "a disabled veteran under Public Law University does not need new build- ngs, told President Ruthven he was raduated at the University 22 years ,go, and "if it were not for going to a ootball game there I wouldn't know the old place."r Referring to Mayor Jefries' state- nent, President Ruthven told the leg- slators: "It is true that Mayor Jef- ries is a graduate of the University. Hwever, one cannot see the Univer- ity from the football stadium. Jef- fries attended the University 22 years go. The same buildings that were at he University 22 years ago are still here, only they are 22 years alder" Gov. Kelly defended the University ppropriation with the statement: Either we educate the veterans now, r we don't educate them at all." M unicipalities' Argument The municipalities' argumentgfol- owed the lines that the Governor's program will aid only the small fre- ion of veterans who want higher ed- 'cation and that with the building $ndustry completely stalled the nc- essary university buildings cannot be built. A 40-man delegation representing sity mayors and county supervisos resented to Gov. Kelly this proposed distribution of the state's estimated $27,600,000 surplus: $4,000,000 to raise state employes' pay. $3,200,000 for teache~s' salaries. $8,800,000 tr be distributed among hospitals, universities and colleges. The balance to be returned to .town- ships, villages and municipalitiesrn a population basis as their share oif sales tax revenues. Kelly's Recommendations Gov. Kelly recommended to the leg- sdature Monday at it appropriate $3,- 300,000 to the University, $2,70,000 ah to Michigain State College and Wayne University and $,700,00 to hospitals, for a total of 14,400,000. Two appropriation bills providing state financial aid for local govern- mental units are now before the legis-' lature. Gov. Kelly, after his meeting with the delegation, declared that "I am See LEGISLATUTRE, age 2 BIG lDOINGS:; Uniomn' pens UTp for C"oeds Toa Look Over., By PERRY LOGAN It is certain that there will be big doings at the Union come tomorrow afternoon. Just exactly what will be going on, however, is open to conjecture. The Union is staging its annual ipen House from 2 to 5 p.m. for the bene- nit of campus coeds. This is a nhigh and noble thing that they do. They work on this principle: The Union is a men's club. Theref ore throughout the year they will cater only to men, and reservetheir many facilities for theyuse f men only. ,No women. Coreds Everywhere Excepton Friday and Saturday nights when the Tap Room will be open to women. Except on Thursday nights when the swimming pool will be open to women. Except that on any other day women can come and go into and about the Union as much as they like. The whole building too; not ust the Tap Room or the swimming pool. The thrill that comes once in a life- time will be the coeds' when they walk brazenly and with firm step through the Union front door. And lax morals or no, they may dangle cigarettes from their lips in the bill- iard room and bowling alleys. Though the building will be wholly open, this does not mean it is ad- visable to try out the desk chair in the general manager's office. "Cau- tion" should be the watchword throughout. Of course no party for women is worthwhile without men, so the whole campus, with or without dates, is invited to the open house. The Rain- bow Room will be open for mixer dancing, which is always fun. There is some questions about whether or t r E i Student Publication Appointment~s Are Nae d by B oard inControl The Veterans Service Bureau is issuing special election card that must be filled out completely by veterans to avoid interruption of subsistence allowances between ' semesters. These cards are being given out with the regular registration ma- ' terial ind should be turned in at the time of registration with other. election cards. 16 will receive a pension plus the standard subsistence provided the two together equal $105 or more." Thus, the veteran is guaranteed $105 regardless of his per cent disability. Financial Advantage Theadvantages of going to college under Public Law 16 disappear as long as a veteran who is single has a 30 per cent disability or more or a 20 per cent disability if he is mar- ried. The new amendment also provides that educational benefits would not be deducted from a possible future bonus for veterans, as the old G.I, Bill had claimed. All veterans will be entitled to a full bonus. An American citizen .who fought in allied armies is now entitled to the benefits of the G.I.
