World Still
Fears Reich
Reason for Continued
Control Is Explained
WASHINGTON, April 30 - (/P) -
Four paralyzing fears that Germany
would again become a great war mak-
ing power were blamed by American
officials today for retarding the re-
turn of real peace to Europe.
They were given as among the
basic, inside reasons why Secretary
of State Byrnes proposed his 25 year,
Big Four agreement for the control
of Germanyrat the Paris foreign min-
isters conference yesterday.
Worked On In State Department
The treaty was worked out at the
State Department over a period of
more than a year beginning before
the European war ended. Because a
separate agreement for securing
peace in Germany appeared to con-
flict with the United Nations security
system, persons familiar with the de-
velopment of the German treaty were
asked to explain why it was consid-
ered necessary.
Their replies, based on conversa-
tion with European diplomatic and
political leaders, indicate a belief that
much of ther difficulty o writing a
workable peace is due to fears, sus-
picions and uncertainties which par-
alyze the ability of peoples to take
constructive action.
Fears Listed
The four fears, according to the
analysis of Byrnes' advisors, are
these:
1. Fear oGi the part of most Euro-
pean countries that the United States
will again withdraw from Europe,
leaving the enforcement of peace
terms on Germany up to the Euro-
peans themselves.
2. Fear by the Russians that the
British would try to build up a pow-
erful new German nation against the
Soviet Union.
3. Fear by the British that the
Russians would gain control of Ger-
many, or much of it, through com-
munization or otherwise, and use it to
spread Soviet influence and wreck
British influence in western Europe.
4. Fear by France of any sort of
German power revival.
PROF. SUNDERLAND:
Picture Placed
In Daily Office
Prof. Emeritus Edson R. Sunder-
land, the distinguished American jur-
ist who for 25 years helped shape the
growth of The Daily, has been accord-
ed a new tribute by the Board in
Control of Student Publications.
The Board has placed Prof. Sun-
derland's picture in th upstairs of-
fice of The Daily in recognition of
his quarter-century of effort which
largely made possible the present
modern Student Publications
Building.
His work as business manager and
secretary of the Board in Control
was recalled this week by its present
secretary, Prof. Merwin H. Water-
man. "As a result of his interest and
activity, Prof. Sunderland left stu-
dent publications at the University
one of the finest plants in the
country," Prof. Waterman said.
Prof. Sunderland served on the
Board from 1917 to 1942, retiring with
a testimonial banquet given by editors
of student publications.
At his retirement Prof. Sunderland
was one of the nation's authorities
on legal procedure. Since 1901 he was
a teacher at the University in vari-
ous branches of legal procedure,
court organization, judicial adminis-

tration and pleas and processes.
Willow Run Airport
Turnover Discussed

n Council members who policed the
polls during yesterday's voting said
the election was going smoothly with
a large campus vote apparent. But
they warned of too much local cam-
paigning. Political activity within 50
feet of the polls is prohibited, they
emphasized, and may lead to the dis-
qualification of the candidate.
Must Number Choices
Voters were reminded that they
must indicate choices by number
and not by check mark under the
Hare system and that at least 10 can-
didates must be selected on the ballot
in numerical order. It is not necessary
to vote a straight ticket in the case
of the three slates on the ballot.
The polls will be open today from
8:45 a.m. to 3 p.m. except for Water-
man Gymnasium and the Engineering
Arch which will stay open until 5:15
p.m. to accomodate students with late
classes. Ident cards are required of
all voters.
Polling Places Listed
The polling places arc located in
front of Alumni Memorial Hall, in
the Angell Hall lobby and basement,
center of the diagonal, in front of the
Economics Building, at the Engineer-
ing Arch, Waterman Gymnasium, in
the Medical School and at Hutchins
Hall of the Law School.
Counting of the ballots will begin
tonight by a special committee of ex-
ecutive groups from the Union,
League and Men's Judiciary. Dr. Clark'
F. Norton of the political science de-
partment will stand by at the count-
ing in an advisory capacity.
Turkish Trends
SCussed by
Student Group
The economic, cultural, political,
and future trends of modern Turkey
were discussed by four Turkish grad-
uate students of the University in
the Rackham Amphitheatre last
night.
The program, "Modern Turkey," I
was the first in a series of area stud-'
ies given by the International Stu-
dent Exchange Committee.
Faut Zadil, speaking on Turkish
economy, said that the $500 million
loan that Turkey is trying to nego-
tiate from the United States is nec-
essary for its economic development.
The relative democratic tendencies
of modern Turkey were discussed by
Altemir Tanriovir. Emphasizing the
aspirations of the Turks under a
democratic rule, Turan Mushkara
spoke on Turkey's future. Rostislav
Gaguzevski told of the educational
and cultural developments.
The purpose of the area study ser-
ies is to promote greater understand-
ing of the problems which face the
people of other countries.
A C To Sponsor
Open Fortum Today
The public is invited to the forum
on the Murray-Wagner-Dingell Na-
tional Health Bill sponsored by the
campus American Veterans Commit-
tee chapter, at 7:30 p.m. today in
Ann Arbor high school.
Dr. Otto Engelke of the county
health department will speak against
the bill, and Dr. Sydney Norwick of
the school of public health will de-
fend it. Moderator of the discussion
is Prof. William Haber of the ecdn-
eo-omics department.

TOKYO, April * - (A) - Allied
headquarters unmasked today a plot
to assinate General MacArthur at
tomorrow's May Day celebration. One
conspirator was seized and a nation-
wide hunt launched for a die-hard
Japanese militarist named as the
archplotter.
The accused and the hunted plot
leader was Hideo Tokayama, former
member of the dread Kempeitai or
Thought Police. In the dying days of
the war he became a suicide pilot
in the KamikazP Fl ing Cor'. 'r

Of Any Homeland
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON, April 30 - An of-
ficial British-United States Commit-
tee of Inquiry on Palestine recom-
mended today that the gates of the
Holy Land be thrown open immed-
iately to 100,000 European Jews -
homeless victims of Axis persecution.
In a 30,000 word report on its four-
month investigation, the Committee
went firmly on record against making
Palestine either a Jewish or an Arab
state, and said that the government
ultimately established there "under
international guarantees" must pro-
tect Christian, Jew and Moslem.
Continue Mandate
It called for continuance of Pales-
tine under a mandate - held by
Britain since 1922 - "pending the
execution of a trusteeship agreement
under the United Nations." This, if
accepted, would nullify Britain's plan
to terminate the mandate by estab-
ishment of an independent Pales-
tine state.
Simultaneously the Committee said
that if its report is accepted, "It
should be made clear beyond all doubt
to both Jews and Arabs that any at-
tempt from either side, by threats of
violence, by terrorism, or by organi-
zation of use of illegal armies to pre-
vent its execution, will be resolutely
suppressed."
No Obligation Assumed
Although the Committee was ap-
pointed by the two governments, there
was nothing in its instructions to
make acceptance of the recommenda-
tion obligatory upon either Britain
or the United States. In diplomatic
circles here, however, it was regarded
as certain that they will carry heavy
weight in determining Anglo-Ameri-
can policy toward Palestine. Immed-
iate reaction varied.
President Truman expressed his
pleasure.
But House Majority Leader Mc-
Cormack (Dem.-Mass.), chairman of
the Political Action Committee for
Palestine, Inc., while expressing "grat-
ification" on the immigration pro-
posal, said that he "chafed at the
Committee for having bypassed the
permanent solution of Palestine as
a Jewish state."
The committee said at the outset
"that such information as we re-
ceived about countries other than
Palestine gave no hope of substantial
assistance in finding homes for Jews
wishing or impelled to leave Europe."
Dean Bennett
Announces .New
Grade Ruling
Students in the architecture school
whose general average is below C at
the end of this semester will be placed
on probation and advised not to reg-
ister again, Dean Wells I. Bennett of
the school announced yesterday.
Following the statements made
within the last week by the literary
and engineering colleges, the Col-
lege of Architecture and Design re-
cently formulated its admission policy
to be effective this fall.
Increased Enrollment Expected
Dean Bennett issued the new regu-
lations as a means to keep in line
with the general rise in scholastic re-
quirements of the University as a
whole. The architecture school, he
stated, expects to feel the same pres-
sure of a greatly increased enroll-
ment that the other schools here an-

ticipate this fall.
The text of the rest of he regula-
tion is as follows: Students whose
general average is 8 points below C
will, except in unusual circumstances,
be required to withdraw. These regu-
lations do not affect veterans or
freshmen who are in their first se-
mester of residence. Veterans in their
second semester or residence will be
