GETTING Bev rage Lw & 6 UIIA1 CLOUDY, COLDER Latest Deadline in the State VOL. LVIII, No. 130 Senate Votes 300 Millions School Aid Proposes Grants To Poorer States WASHINGTON, April 1-(P)- The Senate passed and sent tc the House tonight legislation tc authorize $300,000,000 of Federa aid to the nation's grade and higi schools each year. The bill is aimed at more nearly equalizing the amounts spent fo: education throughout the country It would authorize grants in th4 poorer states up to about $28 P year for each child of school age No state would receive less thar $5 a year for each child from 5 t 17. Michigan Senators Passage was on a 58 to 22 vote (Senators Vanderberg and Fergu- son voted in favor of the bill.) It came after one of the Sen- ate's leading advocates of federal economy, Senator Byrd (Dem., Va.), had, protested in vain. "Never in our history," Byrd shouted, "has there been a more unpropitious time for the federal government to enter into a long range proposition such as is pro- posed in the pending legislation." The bill does not actually carry any funds. They must be voted in subsequent appropriations bills. Byrd recalled that in 1943 Sena- tor Taft (Rep., Ohio), a backer of today's bill, opposed a similar sys- tem of grants. 'States in Better Position' Taft said then that states were in a much better position to fi- nance education than the federal treasury. He also protested about federal controls over local and state schools through the grants. "I was wrong in that state- ment," Taft said, adding that when he examined detailed figures on state spending for schooling they "changed my mind." Taft insisted that the pending bill carefully guards against fed- eral control over education in the states and communities. Before the final vote, the Sen- ate rejected an amendment by Senator McMahon (Dem., Conn.) to authorize $5,000,000 a year to help church and private schools meet the costs of pupil transpor- tation, health services and non- religious textbooks. The vote was 66 to 14.

President Alexander G. Ruthven announced the Regents' de- cision to give the committee control over all programs originating in University buildings or on University grounds. The broadcasting policy group will also control all programs identified as being under University auspices which are presented over any station by staff or students of the University. This means that programs presented by any University depart- ments or organizations over either local stations or the University FM station, if they are identified as2- University programs, will have to be cleared through the commit- tee. No "Outside" Control The committee, however, would not control programs in which students or faculty take part on their own, without intending to represent the University. The group does not seek to be a "board of censorship," accord- ing to Arthur L. Brandon, chair- man of the radio committee. "Clearing" of programs means only that information in them will be checked for conformance to University policy which calls for programs in the public, interest, he said. intra-Dorm Stations Intra-dorm stations and wired- radio will also fall under the com- mittee's jurisdiction. Their olier- %tors are already working in co- operation with the committee and the University Broadcasting Serv- ice. Prof. Waldo Abbot, director of the Broadcasting Service, called the Regents' decision a "step for- ward." He said a centralized broadcasting authority and a def- inite policy are a real necessity inasmuch as a University station will soon be in operation. President Ruthven, in his an- nouncement, also disclosed objec- tives which the radio committee has set for the Broadcasting Serv- ice. The committee's proposals in- clude educational programs in the public interest, "entertainment consistent with the policies and practices of an institution of higher learning," and facilities and programs for wired-radio service to residence halls and other University buildings. The radio executive committee, set up in February under the jur- isdiction of Vice-President Mar- vin L. Niehuss, includes Brandon, Abbot, Prof. Charles L. Jamison, Prof. Karl Litzenberg and Dean Earl V. Moore of the music school. UN Calls for New Session On Palestine Partition Policy To Be Reviewed LAKE SUCCESS, April 1-(P) -The United Nations Security Council called tonight a special session of the 57-member UN As- sembly to reconsider the Palestine problem. The vote for the special meet- ing was 9 to 0. Russia and the Soviet Ukraine abstained. The Assembly will convene April 16 in New York City. Calls Also for Truce The council, by one of its rare unanimous decisions, called also for a Jewish-Arab truce in Pales- tine. Warren R. Austin, chief United States delegate who sponsored both moves in the council on or- ders from the White House, de- clared the truce was needed to stop the "blood feud" raging there. The UN Secretariat immediate- ly swung into high-speed action to prepare the ground work for the second special assembly in UN history. Truman Decision The United States proposed the special session to consider a tem- porary trusteeship after President Truman and his Cabinet decided partition could not be carried out peacefully at this time. The American change of pace on Palestine created a sensation here when it was announced un- expectedly on March 19. Mr. Truman later told his news conference last Thursday that trusteeship was proposed as iA means of filling the vacuum which will be created by Britain's announced decision to terminate her Palestine mandate on May 15.

Florence of Birmingham Uni- versity, England, declared in a lecture yesterday. Prof. Florenceremphasized that ~he Labor government does not grush the basic individual liberties and permits criticism. There has been a definite swing throughout the rest of Europe as well toward social-democratiu parties, he said. If Americans ump the social democrats with ,he Communists, the social-demo- ,rats will turn away from us to ,he support of Communists, he added.. %esult, Not Cause Prof. Florence dismissed the ,harges made in some quarters hat social planning is responsible for the present economis crisis in 'ngland. He said that planning is he result and not the cause of the ,risis. Prof. Florence cited these four :easons for the crisis: 1. The devastation of war asso- iated with the bombings, and the yoncentration of industry in war cork which made reconversion lifficult, 2. The drain on the economy 'U' Foresees Record Class The University commencementt :ecord will be broken again this June, according to a tentativef ist of graduates issued by Mrs. .,ou Ransom, diploma clerk. 1 The list shows that 3,214 stu-c lents will be prospects for di-i Mlomas on June 12. This figure ,ompares with 2,966 for last June.x Leading the list is the literary1 .ollege with 950 prospective grad-k -ates, followed by the Graduatec School with 700 and the engineer-E ng with 409.1 caused by the loss of a million workers whom it has been nec- essary to keep in' the armed forces. More Imports than Exports 3. An increase of imports over exports because of the price rise in agricultural goods which Eng- land must import, aggravating, thereby, the shortage of dollars needed to buy American capital goods for industrial growth; and 4. The psychology of the Brit- ish worker whose conservatism makes him reluctant to forego his demands for higher pay and shorter hours. Among its accomplishments, the Labor government lists the aboli- tion of extreme poverty through full employment and family al- lowances, an approach toward equality of income distribution and the achievement of social se- curity, Prof. Florence remarked.

Possessors of Dope Convicted A jury of eight women and four men found Henry Simpson, '47, and his wife, Vera, 30, guilty of illegally possessing marijuana, in the Washtenaw County Circuit Court, yesterday. The Simpsons, who gave their address as 712 N. Fourth St., Ann Arbor, will be sentenced by Judge James R. Breakey, Jr., April 5. The jury asked leniency for Mrs. Simpson. The couple was arrested Feb- ruary 13. Ann Arbor police later discovered a pound bag of green- ish-colored bits in their home, which Prof. Volney H. Jones, of the anthropology department, compared with University speci- mens of marijuana and green tea. He verified police suspicions that the bag contained dope. Both were remanded to the County jail in the custody of Sheriff's officers. 0 U. S.

That's the latest word from the Athletic Office where the current Crisler crisis is weaving its way through its usual series of rumors, However, this year's rumors are a little more vague than last sea- son's crop-when all agreed defi- nitely that Crisler was going to California. Now they offer a choice-Detroit or Chicago. Some quarters maintain that the Wolverineathleticdirector will accept a position with the Murray Corp. of the Motor City. Others declare he's going with Coca-Cola in Chicago. Actually, no one knows, Les Etter, Athletic publicity director, said yesterday that Crisler hasn't revealed any plans to anyone. Prof. Ralph Aigler, Athletic Board member who appointed Crisler ten years ago, adds that the former coach has not said anything to him about leaving. (For the latest rumor, see page three.)
