LX, No. 63 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1949 PRICE FIVE CiENTS international Rule Pushed For Holy City UN Committee Passes Proposal LAKE SUCCESS - (IP) - The United Nations special political committee voted yesterday to make Jerusalem an international city. The vote on the operative part of the resolution was 35 to 13 with 11 abstentions. The United States and Britain voted with Israel against the pro- posal. * * * THE 59-NATION committee also voted, 32 to 16 with 11 abstentions, to designate the Trusteeship Coun- cil as the administering authority. Russia, which has a seat- on that council, supported the reso- lution. The vote in committee was more than the two-thirds majority re- quired for final approval in the assembly later this week. OPPONENTS of the plan said assembly approval will be another "waste paper" produced by the UN. The majority overrode objec- tions by the United States, Brit- ain, Sweden, the Netherlands and other countries that its plan was not practical. They contended that since Jeru- salem is partitioned and occupied now by arned forces of Israel and Hashemite Jordan it will remain so. THOSE TWO countries are still officially at war as a result of the 1947-48 Arab-Jewish fighting in Palestine. Both gave notice they will not yield their respective parts of the city-sacred to Moslems, Christians and Jews. The UN has neither the power nor the equipment to use force to back up its recommendations. "I hope those who voted for in- ternationalization will take the re- sponsibility for implementing it," Swedish delegate Erik Boheman said. U.S. OFFICIALS said that ex- pressed the attitude of American delegate John C. Ross, who de- clined to comment directly. Russia, Australia and Lebanon sponsored the approved resolu- tion for a special regime covering the Jerusalem area including Bethlehem, under a commission r responsible to the 12-nation trus- teeship council. They won backing of the Mos- lem Arab group in the UN and most Catholic Latin American countries. Arab Hashemite Jordan is not a UN member. MusiC's Use As Theraputic CalledLimited Because of its abstract qualities, music is not easily adaptable as a theraputic agent, according to James Wallace, of the music school. Wallace spoke to the Pre-Medi- cal Society last night in the Chem- istry Building. "MUSIC IS TIlE most temporal of the arts," said Wallace. "It ex- ists only for the fleeting moment that it is actually experienced by the individual." "It does not have the tangible characteristics that sculpture, architecture, and painting have." Because of these characteristics music is unable to communicate concrete ideas. Moreover a musi- cal composition does not provoke the same reaction from all indi- viduals listening to it, Wallace said. "IN DEALING with theraputic cases, one cannot depend on a cer- tain type of composition to pro- duce certain effects." As an example of this Wallace pointed out that out of a group of seventeen mentally disturbed veterans listening to the first movement of Tschaikovsky's sixth symphony, three showed definite improvement, three showed regression, while the rest Binder Says War 'Not Imminent' 1By JACK LAZARUS "I do not believe that a shooting war with the Soviet is imminent or inevitable," declared Carroll Binder, editorial editor of the Minneap- olis Tribune. Binder, who is also a member of a UN Sub-commission on the Freedom of Information, gave two lectures yesterday under the aus- pices of the journalism department. HE HASTENED to reply that peace cannot be made until the pres- ent Soviet leadership change their ideas that there is not enough room on the globe for both Russia and the democracies. "Russia believes that she can win world control without a war," Binder claimed.^ Groves Says Hopkins, Wallace Di N Atom Meddling for Reds * * * * CARROLL BINDER -Daily-Wally Barth Ruth'Seabury To Be Guest Of .LaneHall Miss Ruth Seabury, author and educator recently returned from Japan, will be the guest of Lane Hall, Inter Guild and the Stu- dent Religious Association today through Saturday. During her visit Miss Seabury will give two speeches and attend a number of affairs in her honor. She will deliver her first speech at 8 p.m. today at the Inter-Guild Service in the University Lutheran Chapel. An informal social hour will follow. * * * PRECEDING THE speech Miss Seabury will attend a Coffee Hour at 4:30 p.m. in Betsy Barbour. The affair will be open to all women on campus. Miss Seabury's activities to- morrow will include a Japanese tea given in her honor from 4:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. in Lane Hall. In the evening she will be guest of honor at a dinner in the Evan- gelical and Reformed Church. * * * SATURDAY Miss Seabury will speak at the regular Saturday lun- cheon discussion at 12:15 p.m. in Lane Hall. At a vocational conference fol- lowing, students interested in Christian Missions at home and abroad will have a chance to con- sult with Miss Seabury. While in Japan she served as Educational Counselor to the Pres- ident of Doshisha University in Koyoto. She is the author of "Dinabandhu," "Introducing Young China" and "Daughter of Africa." Haber To Go To Conference Prof. William Haber of the eco- nomics department will leave Ann Arbor today to attend a National Conference on Occupied Areas, to- morrow and Saturday at Washing- ton, D.C. Called by theCommission on the Occupied Areas of the American Council on Education, of which Prof. Haber is a member, the con- ference will "review progress made to date in the program for demo- cratic reorientation of the German and Japanese people," he explain- ed. "Soviet conceptions that capi- talistic countries will inevitably come into conflict and that these nations' economic and political in- stitutions will weaken are their main hopes for victory," he re- marked.- BINDER POINTED out that Russia is forcing the U.S. to spend, billions for national defense by keeping us in doubt. Another weapon the Soviet are using to obtain their goal is "a powerful fifth column," he said. ""By winning the control of western Europe, the Soviet could isolate the U.S. and make their victory easier" he stated. Binder believed, however, that the U.S. could win this Cold War by taking defensive measures. "We must keep up military defenses be- cause of doubt, but we can not let it bankrupt us," he remarked. CONTINUAL suport of those nations in Europe who wish to re- main free is necesary according to Binder. Our economic and poli- tical institutions must be strong enough to survive two depressions if necessary he added. "The issue," he concluded, "is not what we can afford, but where we would be ten years later if we act too little or too late." * * * Editor Tells of International Press Blocks "The outlook of international freedom of the press is not favor- able," reported Carroll Binder of the Minneapolis Tribune in his af- ternoon lecture at Haven Hall. "Never before have there been so many barriers in reporting in- ternational news," he claimed. * * * THERE ARE only five American correspondents in Russia, Binder pointed out. These reporters can write "only those stories the Soviet want sent out," he added. Similar restrictions are found throughout the Iron Curtain. In Poland there are only four cor- respondents from the Western nations. In China, only those cor- respondents from countries who recognize the Communist regime are permitted. "When the topic of international freedom of the press was discussed in the UN General Assembly, we found that there were many na- tions outside the Soviet bloc who would curtail it," he said. AMONG THESE nations were Mexico, many of the Latin Amer- ican countries, India and Arabia. Many governments which are not fascist or communist feel that they are not protected against irresonsible reporting," Binder claimed. Those nations who oppose free- dom of information are stronger than those who favor it, he de- clared. "Little action can be taken towards the establishing of inter- national freedom of the press un- less those undecided nations are convinced of the merits of the freedom that most Americans take for granted," he added. "Until that time," concluded Binder, "foreign information will decrease, getting poorer and poor- er' Checks Cut .dig Fires at Willow Run Chief Points to Good Equipment Precautions and luck have kept the buildings at Willow Run Vil- lage from serious fires like the one at Oklahoma University, where three persons died last week, according to Neil Garrison, Willow Run fire captain. Willow Village , buildings are temporary wartime structures of wood still housing 13,000 persons, and built of the same materials which went up in flames at Okla- homa University. GARRISON pointed with pride at the precautionary inspections at the village, and the fire fighting and alarm system employed. "There is no place in Willow Village more than two minutes from our fire house and I think that looking at the record, we've been pretty lucky," he said. "Of course, with amhigh enough wind, flash flames might spread across the wide spaces that sep- arate the units and over the as- bestos walls that separate each building. * * * "THERE WERE three deaths from fire here last year, but that rate was equal to any other com- munity of our size, and not the fault of our equipment, as some people thought." Only 11 house units have burned out beyond use in six years of existence, Walter Funk- houser, government administra- tor for the project, pointed out. "Maybe its just been luck, but I think that if our past record means anything, it couldn't happen here." * * * "WE HAVE passed severe regu- lations. on the use of dangerous electrical equipment and oil burn- ers, and we take every opportun- ity to warn the residents about fire hazards," he added. Funkhauser declared that an extensive alarm system, careful inspections and unceasing warn- ings have reduced the dangers of a major fire to a minimum. Estes Explains Language Uses Communication is the funda- mental means of learning to live with other people, according to Major Charles T. Estes of the Fed- eral Mediation and Conciliation Service. Estes, who is special assistant to Service director Cyrus S. Ching, spoke yesterday at the Speech As- sembly on "America's Number One Problem.. SPEECH is very closely related to labor-management problems, Estes declared. "The trouble lies in getting people to talk with each other instead of at each other." When an employe has a griev- ance, he talks to the foreman, who answers him with the in- evitable "Yes, yes, BUT-," Es- tes said. The employe then be- comes impatient to renew his argument and doesn't hear what the foreman says, he continued. If conciliation fails to solve the issue, it goes before arbitration, and the winner of the decision "struts around like a peacock while the loser thinks I'll get you next time'." TELLS OF RADAR SHIPMENT-Former Air Force Major George Racy Jordan (right) faces reporters across his desk at New York as he tells of ripping secret radar equipment out of four planes bound for Russia. A fifth plane, he said, carrying the same equipment reached the Soviet Union. With Jordan, who touched off a new investigation of secret material allegedly obtained by the Soviets, is Fulton Lewis, Jr., (seated at left) radio commen- tator of whose program the disclosures were made. CREATIVE OUTLET: Inter-Arts Union Plans Pubieation Of Magazine March is the month set for the appearance of a new all-arts mag- azine on ,campus. At an organizational meeting yesterday, plans were discussed for the publication of a quarterly which will provide an outlet for student creation in the five arts- literature, speech, dance, music and art itself. THE MAGAZINE is the foster child of Inter-Arts Union, which took the initial steps of calling the NVational .Round- Up By The Associated Press DETROIT - Colder weather bored in on Michigan yesterday, as the state slowly recovered from a sudden ice and snow storm that clogged highways Tuesday. During the storm as much as five and a half inches of snow fell in the north part of the state. * * * WASHINGTON - John L. Lewis said yesterday he had ne- gotiated new contracts with soft coal operators producing 5,000,- 000 tons a year,, but major coal men sneered that the agree- ments covered "gopher holes." Lewis broke through the solid operator front Tuesday, the first crack in a six months bargain- ing deadlock. WASHINGTON - The United States agreed yesterday to meet Communist terms for the release of two Americans long held cap- tive in Soviet dominated North Korea. Secretary of State Acheson an- nounced that in compliance with conditions laid down by the North Korea "people's republic" an American official will be sent to the frontier to receive two repre- sentatives of the Economic Coop- eration Administration who have been held since Sept. 22. editorial and business set-up.- meeting and outlining a tentative The . quarterly will include short stories, poems, paintings, sculpture, original plays and critical essays on music, dance, and drama. It will be the sincere editorial policy of the magazine to insure that it does not become primarily literary, according to Charles Olson, who represented the Inter- Arts Council at the meeting. "WE HOPE to give articulate expression to all the arts. This is why Inter-Arts Union has under- taken to sponsor the project." A special feature of the maga- zine will be the use of progres- sive advertising. Students in the architecture college plan to sub- mit samples which will be shown to prospective Ann Arbor adver- tisers. The tentative staff of the new magazine includes an editor-in- chief, a managing editor, two as- sistant editors-one in charge of editorial work and one heading technical business, five sub-editors -one representing each of the arts, and a photography editor. * * * THREE POSITIONS will be filled by people working on the magazine, Olson stated. Baker To Talk On Teaching Teaching opportunities in the Detroit School system will be dis- cussed at 4 p.m. today in Rm. 1035 Angell Hall by George Baker, per- sonnel director of the Detroit Pub- lic Schools. Baker will also interview appli- cants for February vacancies in the Detroit schools today. Ap- pointments for the interviews may be obtained by calling the Bureau of Appointments, Ext. 489. It Was Fate The Bible came to life, or rather to death, in Ann Arbor last night when Cain again killed Abel. As one person explained it, Cain and Abel were brothers, in fact twins, and very close to each other. They were always frolicking together, he recalled last night after the event. They were also dogs. The two pooches were cross- ing the street together early in the evening, their owner said, playing about as usual, when Cain pushed Abel in front of an oncoming automobile, which1 killed him "It w, -s star-crossed fate,"1 the owner sid sadly after- wards, "it just had to happen." CED Limits Self-Rule of Members Committee to End Discrimina- tion members passed a bylaw lim- iting the autonomy of member or- ganizations yesterday by a vote of 12 to seven. The bylaw states, "member or- ganizations of the CED must sub-' mit for approval proposed massi pamphlets to be distributed at large on campus or mass rallies which affect the specific program of the CED at any time." LYN MARCUS, '50, who pro- posed the bylaw said the CED showed today that it realizes it no longer can be held accountable for the irresponsible actions of its member groups. Marcus is presi- dent of the Young Democrats rep- resentative to CED. Young Progressive's represen- tative, Sylvia Flax said, "I feel that YP will abide by the deci- sions made by CED as it has al- ways done in the past. It will continue to devote its efforts to end discrimination in any way it may reveal itself." CED also voted to publish a pamphlet clarifying the commit- tee's position on removing appli- cation blank discriminatory ques- tions. * * * A PItOPOS'ED amendment lim- iting membership in the Commit- tee to organizations which do not have restrictive clauses in their constitutions was tabled until Fri- day's meeting. West Quad Council last night urged all West Quad houses to send representatives to the Com- mittee. The Council also appointed Dave Frazer as representative to CED. Frazer declared last night, "many organizations are repre- sented on CED, but there is not a real proportionate representation of opinions. By sending one dele- gate from each house in the West Quad, I hope we will alleviate the situation." "Until SL either sanctions CED or takes direct action itself, it is important that CED have a more rational voting body," according to Al Haffner, '50E; campus action committee chairman of the Coun- cil commented. Revelli Okays Union's Action Prof. William D. Revelli of the School of Music and University band director last night voiced tentative approval of the AFL's Musicians' Union attempt to bar student bands from college bas- ketball games in New York's Square Garden. "If the Garden is getting a per- centage of the gate of those games," he said, "I think the American Federation of Musi- cians is right." States Russia Used Spies To Get Bombh Claims No Files Stolen from U.S. WASHINGTON- (A) -Lt. Gen. Leslie R. Groves, wartime chief of the nation's Atomic Project, tes- tified yesterday that neither Hen- ry A. Wallace nor the late Harry Hopkins ever prodded him to give up atomi secrets of material to Russia. But he said the Soviet Embassy in Washington used spies in re- peated attempts to crack the sec- ret of the atom bomb during World War II. TESTIFYING before the House Un-American Activities ,Commit- tee, Groves, now retired, made these salient points: 1. He approved a wartime So- viet purchase and shipment of a few pounds of uranium metal in this country, principally to find out if the Russians had a source of uranium in the U.S. that he didn't know about. They did not get enough to make an, atomic bomb. 2. There was a "great deal of influence" and pressure put on the U.S. Lend-Lease Administra. tion "to give the Soviets every- thing they sought" during the war. He didn't know who applied the pressure. * * * 3. NO REPORT ever reached htmthat any secret atomic doc,- ments were removed from files of the atomic project, but he thinks he would have known "if a single secret document was missing." As Groves testified on apito Hill, Secretary of State Aheon told a news conference that the army's so-called "Manhattan en- gineering district" that develop- ed the A-bomb approved govern- ment licenses for the shipment of uranium compounds to Rus- sia in 1943. Acheson said two export licenses were granted in March, 1943, and another in April, 1943. GROVES' TESTIMONY high- lighted the seond day of hear- ings conducted by the Committee in its check of charges that atom- ic "bomb powder," Panama Canal maps and top-secret radar equip- ment were flown to Russia in American Lend-Lease planes dur- ing the winter of 1943-44. Former U.S. Air Force Major George Racey Jordan told the House committee on Monday that he ripped open Soviet-bound suit- cases at a Great Falls, Mont., air field. He said he found "Oak Ridge" materials and a note sign- ed with the initials "H.H." which purportedly said: "Had a hell of a time getting these way from Groves." Sigder Barred As Prosecutor LANSING-(P)-The State Su- preme Court yesterday removed former governor Kim Sigler as special prosecutor in the Ivan A. Johnston bribery case and turned the prosecutionnover toAttorney General Stephen J. Roth. Roth had intervened in the case on the grounds that Sigler would create a "carnival atmosphere" in- consistent with the ends of jus- tice. The Supreme Court's unanimous 6 to 0 decision was a slap at Cir- cuit Judge Paul R. Cash of Alma, who was sitting as a visiting judge in the Johnston case in Macomb County. Judge Cash had bluntly refused to admit Roth intothe case and had implied that he was tied up with gamblers. Johnston, a former state sena- tor, was accused of accepting a EARMARKED FOR RESEARCH PROJECTS: Government Grants University $3,000,000 Heading a list of 35 leading col- from the Federal Government, Columbia heading the list of 351 The bulk of the money is com- UNIVERSITY Vice - President
