LVIII, No. 37 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1947 PRICE fl" CENTS UN Assembly Passes, Motion Condemning Propaganda for War Soviet Union Demands Britain End Rule Over Palestine by January 1 By The Associated Press NEW YORK, Nov. 3-The United Nations Assembly approved unanimously tonight a world condemnation of propaganda that might hreaten peace. This final action was taken only after Russia declared it was a 'half-way" measure that did not name "those countries where war propaganda is particularly widespread." Just a week ago, in a surprise move in the Assembly's 57- nation political committee, Russia withdrew charges that the United States, Greece and Turkey were carrying on "criminal war propaganda." At Lake Success, the Soviet Union demanded that the British 4. UAW Given Second Chance To Sign Oath Non-Communist Vow Required by NLRB WASHINGTON, Nov. 3--0P)- The National Labor Relations Board indicated today it will grant the CIO-United Auto Work- ers a "reasonable" time in which to qualify to use the board's facil- ities under the Taft-Hartley Act, temporarily overlooking one of- ficer's refusal to sign a non-Com- munist oath. Without disclosing what its eventual decision might be should Vice President R. J. Thomas per- sist in defying the Taft-Hartley oath requirement, the Board ap- peared ready to accept the notice of UAW President Walter P. Reu- ther that the executive board had voted to comply.° Reuther so notified the NLRB late Friday and said a letter would follow requesting preservation of' the union's pending cases while it endeavors to get into compliance with the eligibility requirements. A UAW official here said that Thomas might not be the only of- ficer who balked at signing the affidavit disavowing Communism. The act requires such affidavits from all union officers before their labor organization may gain rec- ognition of the board or bring cases before it. Four SS Men To Be Hanged Eleven Sentenced T1o Jail in Gernany NUERNBERG, Germany, Nov. 3i(-P)-Four former top-ranking SS (Elite Guard) officers, headed i by Oswald Pohl and who consti- tuted the "business brains" of the Nazi concentration camps, were sentenced to the gallows today by an American war crimes court. Eleven others were given sen- tences ranging from 10 years to life. The court said the group of 15 was responsible for "wholesale murder, pillage, thievery and loot- ing." Five defendants were ac- quitted. The court, headed by Judge Robert M. Toms of Detroit, de- scribed those convicted as "mon- sters of depravity" who had built a system of concentration camps and traded lives for loot. In acquitting the five defend- ants, the court ruled for the first time during the war crimes trials that a German SS member could be considered innocent if it was not proved that he knew the in- tent of the Elite Guard to be criminal. In each case acquitted, the defendant admitted belonging to the SSdbut insisted he knew nothing about its law-breaking program. laber To Tell Job Outlook Problem - fin-- tdentsinre- terminate their rule over Palestine by Jan. 1, and turn interim ad- ministration of the turbulent Holy Land over to the Security Council pending partition into in- dependent Jewish and Arab coun- tries. Russia also called for with- from Palestine no later than May L 1948, and official estab- lishment of the two new nations by Jan. 1, 1949. Delegate Semen 'K. Tsarapkin presented the long-awaited Soviet policy statement before a closed meeting of the "partition" sub- committee of the Assembly's 57- nation Palestine committee after rejecting an American plan for implementing partition. The Russian proposals were based on the assumption that the United Nations would approve partition, which is bitterly op- posed by the Arabs. The U. S. had asked the British, as mandatory power, to retain control of the Holy Land until July 1 when it was suggested that partition could be effected. Council Hears Details of New Housing Plan Initial steps of a new $800,000 housing project containing 121 three and a half roomapartments received the approval of the Ann Arbor City Council at its regular meeting last night. The Housing project, to be situ- ated on "Nob Hill" an area bounded by Main, Davis, Third and Koch Streets, will be com- posed of eight separate units each with a central heating plant. The first of the dwellings is expected to be completed early next sum- mer, according to the builders, Robertson and Edwards. Council also asked for bids on three traffic lights to be placed at the junctions of East Univer- sity and South University, South University and State, and at South State and North University. Approval was also granted to the police department to trade id four of its present cars for new Fords. A police-commissioner said this was necessary "because too many old '37 and '38 Chevies are running awayfrom our police cars."

Dr. Forsythe Decries Poor Health Abroad WSSF Drive To Aid All Foreign Students The plight of many foreign stu- dents, who enroll in the Univer- sity only to enter Health Service because of illness, indicates the hazardous effect that malnutrition and poor sanitary conditions are having in Europe and Asia, ac- cording to Dr. Warren E. Forsythe,j diretor of Health Service.1 The World Student Service Fund which begins its drive on campus tomorrow, is organized to aid these foreign students in building healthier, better educated nations. The scope of their work and the need for support is ex- plained by the WSSF display on the diagonal. Vast increase in disease has been causedhbysdevastation and destroyed homes, which have forced masses to live together, Dr. Forsythe said. "Statistics show 18 to 10 times as much tuberculosis among foreign students as among American students, and they are supposed to be a select group," he explained, James Wang, Chinese student, who is now a patient at Health Service, reported that St. John's University in Shanghai has a med- ical school that doesn't even have an x-ray machine. "They are do- ing the best they can within their means, but they need money," he said. Due to the high cost of. living and low quality food people just don't have the energy to go to school, Wang stated. According to Aung Chein, Health Service patient from Bur- ma, not as many students are able to go to school now as before the war because of poor health and the destruction of schools. "There is not enough medicine and vil- lages have very poor sanitary con- ditions," he said.

World News 11 At a Glance By The Associated Press LONDON, Nov. 3 - Stanislaw Mikolajczyk reached refuge in London today after a dramatic flight from Poland that included a dash through Soviet-occupied Germany.

Hart= shirt painting hobby begun last spring is growing into a nation- wide business. Believed to the only artist in the country to paint pictures on shirts, Gene is still experimenting on which materials make the best "canva's" for his four by five inch paintings. "Dry cleaning doesn't hurt them at all," he says. Gene lives and works in a real artist's hideaway complete with a candle in a wine bottle that he and his room-mate, Don Itzon of Iron Mountain, built themselves in the basement of 520! Packard Ave. Don, an engineering student who "saw the light" and is now study- ing art, is Gene's partner and handles the marketing of the shirts. Each Gene-Don exclusive, as the shirts are labeled, takes from four to five hours to paint. Since Gene keeps very busy in art school classes he's only had time to paint three dozen shirts since spring. He plans to speed up production though, and already has contacts in Palm Beach and Hollywood 4s well as in Ann Arbor stores. Although the shirts haven't as yet been offered for sale to women, Gene believes the girls will go for them in a big way. He's also able to paint designs on blouses and light gabardine suits. While designs have been mostly limited to sports, operative and the-atrical figures, Gene says the possibilities are unlimited. Pin- ups? "You order 'em, I'll paint 'em," he says. Don't 'Wait for Late -Corners It's a.e even bet that the felllow who walks into class about 8:30 this morning shares a room in the East Quadrangle with an elec- tric alarm clock. All electric power in the Quad was shut off from midnight to 6:30 a.m. today as electricians connected the electric power lines of the old and new sections of the dormitories. The heroes of the early morning were the much-ma- ligned wartime alarm clocks which did double duty. Only a few students who studied late by flashlight defied the first post-war blackout in Ann Arbor. Most residents gave up and went to bed, Ex-Envoy, J. Winant, ShootsSelf Former Envoy Dies ifn Home By The Associated Press CONCORD, N.H., Nov. 3-John G. Winant, 58, former Ambassador to Great Britain, ended a life dedicated to the improvement f social and labor conditions in the nation by committing suicide to- night with a pistol. Medical Referee Clarence E. Butterfield, who pronounced the suicide verdict, said Winant shot himself while alone in his bed- room. He died at 7:45 p.m. The doctor quoted Miss Irene Mason, the secretary, and Miss Orol Maears, the maid, as saying they heard no shot, but were at- tracted by the thump of Winant's body. 'In Low Spirits' Both women said Winant "seemed to be in low spirits" and suffering "mental and physical fa- tigue." Winant served in the London diplomatic post throughout World War II and at the war's end he was the United States representa~- tive on the European Supervisory Council. In 1946, President Truman named him permanent U. S. rep- resentative on the United Nations Economic and Social Council. UN Work The three-time governor of New Hampshire returned to this coun- try in May, 1946, to devote his full time to the UN assignment. Last December, however, he asked President Truman tosrelieve him to "pick up life again as a pri- vate citizen in my own country." Winant, often likened to Abra- ham Lincoln because of his physi- cal resemblance and his penchant for always trying to help others, had served as first head of the Social Security Board, to which he was named by the late Presi- dent Roosevelt in 1935. That -appointment, followed.hi energy in obtaining advanced so- cial legislation in his home state while serving as its chief executive. Although a Republican, Winant did not hesitate to endorse Presi- dent Roosevelt's action in creat- ing the National Recovery Admin- istration. Hungary Gives AP Writer 24 Hours To Go LONDON, Nov. 3 - (W) - The Communist-dominated Hungarian government today ordered the ex- pulsion from Hungary of Jack Guinn, 31, Associated Press cor- respondent in that country for the last 22 months. The action against Guinn was taken a week after the arrest of his American secretary, Miss Elizabeth K. Pallos, and three days after Yugoslavia's expulsion of Ar- thur M. Brandel, Belgrade corres- pondent for the New York Times. The Hungarian Ministry of the Interior said in a statement that political police had discovered "an organization for espionage" and in connection with this had detained Miss Pallos and seven other per- sons. "In connection with the discov- ery of the organization," the state- ment concluded, "Ministry of the Interior authorities expelled Mr. Jack Guinn, Associated Press cor- respondent, from Hungary for- ever." Guinn earlier had been noti- fied he must leave Hungary with- in 24 hours or face charges of "espionage and the smuggling of criminals" out of the country. He plans to leave for Vienna tomor- row by United States legation car, with his wife and children to follow by legation plane. sion of Congress which gets un- derway in barely two weeks. Al- though endorsing the general principles of aid to Europe Van- denberg urged that it be carried out with sound administration and adequate cooperation from the benefited countries. In one of the most momen- tous portions of his address, Senator Vandenberg declared that we must go ahead on the question of a German peace settlement - with or without Soviet cooperation. He called a German and Austrian peace settlement one of the most im- perative factors concerning world stability and peace. Soviet actions have frustrated every attempt at German eco- nomic unity thus far, according to the Senator, who urged that the peace conference be called by those who do agree, leaving the door open for the Soviets. Vandenberg sharply criticized current "amazing "anti-American vilification" by the Russians. He refuted charges of war monger- ing, Fascism and economic im- perialism which have been hurled at the U.S. by the Soviet Union. Outlining his own beliefs, the senior senator from Michigan asked for global disarmament and reliance on the United Na- tions. However, he warned, until these aims can be assured we must have a totally adequate American national defense. In urging continued support of the UN, he said that it has pre- vented the Soviet Union from go- ing its own way "in the Commu- nist design for a post war world." "If it does notnsave the peace," Vandenberg pointed out, "it will fix the crystal-clear responsibility for its loss." However he did urge certain "curative"'changes in the United Nations charter. Vandenberg said the veto should be applied only to the use of armed force. "But," he warned, "it should never apply to pacific means for the settle- ment of situations and disputes." Group Pickets DutchSpeaker Convocation Arouses Criticism ofPolicy Yesterday's Hill Auditorium convocation was picketed by some 25 placard bearing students pro- testing Dutch action in Indonesia. However, the large group in turn was picketed by a lone student. The student, Al Shapiro, carried a hastily-improvised poster which read "These students are not rep- resentative of the student body at the University of Michigan." The lone anti-picketer also charged that the large group was on hand only to cause a disturbance. Ed Shaffer, a member of the large picketing group, told news- Vandenberg Says Distrust Imperils PeaceObjectives Senator Approves Marshall Plan, Calls for Germian Peace Settlement Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg yesterday solemnly warned thousands of University students and faculty members that "suspicion and distrust" imperil American objectives of peace, and called for a "heavy, dose of total truth to' attack misunderstandings." At a special convocation honoring the Dutch Centennial in Mich- igan, the leading Republican stqtesman outlined Russian actions which have resulted in an "east-west cleavage" and have "split war- born Allied unity." He leveled a verbal blast at Soviet use of the United Nations veto and recent Russian "war mongering" charges directed at the United States. Vandenberg's talk came as a climax to the year-long celebration honoring one-hundred years of Dutch settlement in Michigan. TE v Netherlands Ambassador to the Jn U.S., Dr. Eelco Nicholaas vant E Kleffens, also spoke at the Uni- Ex lais Use versity convocation where both men were given the honorary de- -U S. gree of Doctor of Laws. Commenting on problems here at home, the Republican lawmaker expressed approval of the "Mar- Indonesian Attacks shall Plan" for aid to Europe. This Provoked Response is one of the m ajor questions slat- -dt c m b f espiase Defense against the armed at- tacks of an Indonesian minority necessitated Dutch use of Amer- ican equipment in the Netherlands East Indies controversy, Dr. Eelco Nicholaas van Kleffens asserted in an open press conference yes- terday. Suavely answering questions In regard to the Indonesian question, the Netherlands ambassador, speaker at the convocation in honor 6f Michigan Dutch settlers, said that "only a small part of the United States equipment" had been procured through lend-lease, He failed, however, to explain how the remainder of the American arms had been obtained. Dutch Forced to Act "Expansionist policies of the Indonesian republic forced early Dutch action in the situation, pre- venting formation of a proposed United States of Indonesia," Dr. Van Keff ens said in a review of the problem. "Later, in spite of a truce, the Indonesian minorit government, supplied with Japanese arms, con- tinued attacks, and contrary to agreement, continued to hold Dutch hostages prisoner." The ambassador further charged that the Indonesians had deliber- ately starved areas held by the Dutch, thus preventing their with- drawal. Explains Order Breach Breach of the UN Security Council cease fire order by the Dutch was compelled because of contrary directives of the Indo- nesian government to the peopld Dr. van Kleffens declared. "Actually totalitarian, the gov- ernment represents but a defiant minority of the people," he said. "They have been afraid to hold any elections for fear of losing power." Declaring his nation's future po- sition on the problem of Indone- sian independence, the ambassador expressed a desire "to see the crown as the only link between the Netherlands and the United States of Indonesia." Convocation Speech In his talk at the convocation yesterday morning, Ambassador van Kleffens asked for a restora- tion of international law, as ex pressed in the International Court of Justice at The Hague. The Dutch ambassador, who re- ceived an honorary degree of doc- tor of laws at the convocation, pointed out that the International Court of Justice had been too long ignored by the United Nations. He declared: "The alternative is progressive chaos and anarchy and' the rule of arbitrary force. .The 50-odd middle and small countries can- not feel secure as long as in the United Nations emotion takes precedence over law."
