LX, No. 52 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, NOV. 24, 1949 CLOUDY WITH SNOW PRICE FIVE CENTS Soviet Union Hits Chinese UN Delegates Calls Nationalists Unrepresentative NEW YORK-(A)-Rassia called the Chinese Nationalist delegation a bunch of pygmies yesterday and said Moscow no longer recognizes their right to represent China in the United Nations. Andrei Y. Vishinsky, Prime Min- ister Stalin's top diplomat, told the 59-nation General Assembly the Nationalists here couldn't rep- resent China even if they wanted to because-he said-350,000,000 of China's 450,000,000 people have recognized the Communist regime headed by Mao Tze-Tung in Peip- ing. CHIEH-HOU KAN, personal ad- visor to Li Tsung-Jen, acting A president of Nationalist China who now is in British Hong Kong, angrily replied that Russia had perpetrated serious international crimes in China. He told the Soviet foreign minister that God and the con- science of the world will indict Russia even if the Nationalists lose their seat at the U.N. The heated exchange occurred at Flushing Meadow as an offshoot of debate on proposals for banning atom bombs and for control of atomic energy by international agreement. The Russian and Chinese spokesmen made their statements against the backdrop of two im- portant political developments in China; (1) the Nationalist gov- ernment's decision to abandon Chungking, and (2) the Commun- ists' release of Angus Ward, American consul-general at Muk- den, and his staff from prison under a deportation order. w t 4 VISHINSKY touched off the fireworks here when, in the middle of a long speechion atomic energy, he shouted that Russia does not regard "the Kuomintang delega- tion",as te legal Chinese sPOtes- man. This was interpreted as indi- eating that the Soviet Union will play a leading role in the im- pending battle to get the Chi- nese Communists a big power seat in the U.N. Satelite Poland already has indicated it will take an active role in this fight. When Vishinsky completed his speech, Kan demanded the floor. He shouted nervously: "Mr. Vi- shinsky, your mere wish will not put the Chinese Communists in <. our seats in the Assembly." VISHINSKY and his seven-man delegation laughed out loud as the nationalist spokesman con- tinued: "If your wish were law then 80 re- rent of + delegate in the assembly would be unseated." Student-Police Battles Shake Panama City PANAMA - (P) - A gun battle between students and national po- lice flared last night at National University and first reports said two policemen and two civilians were wounded. It was the second successive night of violence in Panama, where two men have laid claim to the Presidency. * *' * T HE UNIVERSITY is situated at the boundary line of Panama and the Canal Zone, which is un- der United States jurisdiction. Some students escaped from the police fire by jumping out of win- dows and taking refuge in the Canal Zone. Police claimed the students opened fire first. There was no word on whether any casualties had occurred inside the Univer- sity building, where possibly 50 students were lodged. The police laid siege to the building and made no attempt to smash their way inside. Earliter armed national police had succeeded in breaking up a student mass meeting in the heart of Panama called in protest against "military dictatorship." * * * AMIDST general unrest stem- ming from fear of renewed blood- Winning Grins L ethal Quits AEC Post, .Wants reedom To a,' -Daily-Wally Barth PUBLICATIONS BOARD WINNERS-Jim Jans, Tom Walsh and B.

Because of a reduced election quota used by SL officials in their own special version of the Hare Proportional Representational System, the 28th candidate was elected at 3 a.m. * * * REGULAR quota would have been 240, but SL member Tom Walsh and Duane Nuechterlain re- duced it to 210, which would have been the quota after several counts. Main advantage to the re- duction was quicker election of candidates . and more sleep for counters. The proportion of affiliated students was close to that of the independents who were elected. Thirteen out of 27 affiliates got in; 15 out of 31 independents made it. A tie for ninth place in the J-Hop election necessitated a com- mittee of 10 persons. After an affiliated candidate's election to the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics, a mob from the East Quad, sponsors of the only independent board candi- date, who cane in a close second, heckled the winner's fraternity members and marched through' the house in a riotous but good- natured protest. No one got hurt. . * * * MOST OF THE women candi- dates had to leave early to meet late permissions, so counters and supporters of those who were elected serenaded them at the dorms at 3 a.m. East and West Quad candi- dates paced the election among dormitory hopefuls for SL. Six candidates out of 10 from West Quad were elected while five out of nine from East Quad got in. An East Quad man, Gordon MacDougal, came in in sixth place among elected candidates. Mac- Dougal also had the support of the Young Progressives. He is president of the YP. * * * THE PROGRESSIVES fared well in comparison with Young Republicans, whose president came in 12th in the race. The Young Democrats' president did not run. Women's dorms didn't fare so well. The two small dorms, Helen Newberry and Martha Cook, were the only ones to elect candidates. Stockwell, New Women's Dorm and Jordan Hall all ran candidates who lost the count. In the J-Hop race, Rostom Tandourjian, only independent running, came in second, less than 55 votes behind winner Ned Mess. The Independent slate of B. S. Brown, Tom Walsh and James P. Jans won for Board 'in Control of Student Publications. Jans, the third hghest, was slightly less than 800 votes above runner-up Dick Morrison, IFC Vice-President.

Four consulate employes jailed with Ward also were freed. A Communist "people's court" con- victed them along with Ward but decreed that they too be deported. THE STATE Department, which has indignantly denounced the treatment of the American official as "barbaric," immediately relayed instructions to Ward to get out of Mukden and bring his entire staff with him-"forthwith." This latest action in the sen- sational case which has attract- ed world attention came with lightning speed after the 56- year-old diplomat himself re- ported that his four weeks im- prisonment had ended in a Communist conviction and de- portation order. He added that he and the four consulate employes arrested, held, convicted and ordered deported along with him were able to be "up and about." All have returned to their homes in the consulate compound in Mukden, he said w * * WHILE TOP State Department officials felt that their first ob- jective had been gained with the physical freedom of the five men from prison, they were maintain- ing an anxious watch of incoming telegrams for first word that the Communists actually are making arrangements to get Ward and his people out of town. There are 12 American offi- cials and at least two Europeans, Mrs. Ward and Mrs. Shiro Tat- sumi, the Japanese wife of a Japanese-American employed by Ward. The Tatsumis are report- ed to have four children with them in Mukden. The first big break in the case since the consul general was ar- rested on October 24 came in mid- morning yesterday when the State Department announced it had re- ceived word that the Communists had finished their trial of Ward and his associates and that they had been released from jail. Ward immediately telephoned American Consul General 0. Edmund Clubb at Peiping and Clubb rushed a dispatch to the State Department. Important details of the inter- national incident remained to be filled in. Ward hasn't had a chance to tell his side of the story. The Communists charged him with beating a Chinese employe of the consulate. State Department offi- cials have insisted that the charge was trumped up. SRA-WSSF Will Hold Card Party' A "card party" will be given by SRA-WSSF from 7 to 10 p.m. to- morrow in Lane Hall at which the guests will sort some 10,000 "rail- road" stubs in preparation for the spring fund drive by WSSF. In addition to the sorting, square dancing, singing and the downing of refreshments will be in order, Wym Price, president of WSSF, announced yesterday. -Daily-Burt Sapowitch TASTY TURKEY-A roast young torn turkey was caught in this condition in the League's kitchen late last night, preparing for his role in today's Thanksgiving Day festivities. The turkey has been dressed up by League cooks especially for holiday diners. Some 41,000,000 turkeys were available this year for winter eating. (See other turkey picture, Page. 3.) * * * * * * * * * Tables Tu. By PAUL BRENTLINGER I Thousands and thousands of turkeys breathed their last during the past few days in order to grace huge platters as the nation cele- brates Thanksgiving Day today. Cooks from Maine to California have been utilizing all their mental resources to dress up the huge gobblers so that they look as good as they taste. IN AN EFFORT to learn howt the turkeys themselves felt about this business of having big Thanksgiving dinners, The Daily1 sent a reporter to a local turkey. farm to observe their reactions. But by the time The Daily got1 rned on Gobblers to the farm, only thirty or forty gangling gobblers were wander- ing around the lot. The rest, some 400, had already gone to meet their doom at the market place. The remaining turkeys were quite youthful, having been born just last September. They were quite content as they romped, around a big pasture field and fed on delicious grainy turkey mash. * * * THEY SEEMED completely ob- liviou> to the fate of their 400 colleagues.

An Associated Press report early this month said that this year's turkc'y population would be much greater than that of last year, thereby reducing prices on America's favorite holiday .fowl. However, June Smith, proprietor of the turkey farm visited by The Daily, said that California's fail- ure to produce turkeys in the quantity expected had caused a last-minute shortage of the big birds. Consequently, mid-west growers did quite well with their turkeys this year, Smith said. * * * TOTAL TURKEY population was still quite large this year. A re- cent U.S. Department of Agricul- ture forecast said that around 41,- 000,000 birds would be available for holiday tables this year. This means that America has just about as many turkeys as France has people. But when the typical American sits down to his typical turkey dinner today, he will have little concern with statistics on turkey population. He will only say, "Mmmm . what flavor !"

Committeemen said they were seeking to learn whether money was paid the newspapers by a peak Truman ok's; Resignation WithRegret Successor Not Nominated as Yet WASHINGTON-(P)-David E. Lilienthal, the foe of extereme se- crecy on the atom, yesterday re- signed as chairman and member of the Atomic Energy Commission -partly, he said, in order to speak out "with a greater latitude." President Truman accepted the resignation, effective Dec. 31, with the "utmost regret." He named no successor foi the commission, which holds powers almost u - paralleled in democratic gvern ment. * * * BUT MR. TRUMAN voiced con- fidence that "should the exigencies of the public interest demand".- presumably, if a war crisis comes -Lilienthal would stay his de- parture. In Congress, starting point of most of the Lilienthal battles that have splashed controversy over the front pages, there was regret at his departure and praise for his career, but it was not unanimous. Now 50, Lilienthal sprang into the public eye as chairman of the Tennessee Valley Authority. On Oct. 28, 1946, he was appointed chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission. He stayed there three action-packed years, climaxed by last summer's investigation Of - a charge of "incredible mismanage- ment" in AEC. A MAJORITY of the Senate- House Atomic Committee cleared the agency of this accusation, made by Sen. Hickenlooper (Rep., Iowa). Yet Mr. Truman may have had it in mind in today's letter to Lilienthal, released at the White House: "You have indeed, through almost 20 consecutive years of public service in tough pioneer- ing jobs--always under pressure and often 'under destructive criticism-earned the right to retire to private life." Lilienthal only last month urged that this country "stop this sense- less business of choking ourselves by some of the extreme of secrecy to which we have been driven." * * * HE URGED broader sharing of atomic information with the Brit- ish and Canadians, in the interest of speedier atomic development. His appeal did not check a new drive in Congress for atomic se- curity, spurred by the Russian atomic explosions. In his message to the White House, a letter obviously talked over with Mr. Truman in advance, Lilienthal made it clear he is quitting public service but not pub- lic affairs. * * * SENATOR Hickenlooper, whose charges against Lilienthal and AEC included not only misman- agement but security flaws and the loss of a quantity of uranium from a laboratory, commented last night: "I look forward to a new stim- ulation in our atomic program," Hickenlooper issued his state- ment at Des Moines. He noted that he called for Lilienthal's resigna- tion last May, "in the best inter- ests of our atomic program." "At the outset I stated that I had no personal animosity what- soever toward Mr. Lilienthal," the Senator said. "I have long been in disagreement with his policies as chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission and I have been of the sincere opinion that these policies have not produced the vigorous development of our atomic pro- gram that we must have in the EX-MICHIGAN TECH PROFESSOR: U.S. Says Sittler Faces Deportation in '50 IWASHINGTON-(ilP--Immigra-I I.T,,cti'n r ' T nr ,.4- , n rlor finaf 'haI AvgOC.TATR Ranrptarv (1pnrga I I iffle~r wc~ f4, iness in the e f"Sittler is mighty lucky to beI
