Malik Against
Chinese Red
Withdrawal
Attacks U.S. Role
In Korean War
NEW YORK-(P)-Russia's Ja-
cob A. Malik served notice yester-
day that he will veto a six-power
demand that' Communist China
pull its troops out of the Korean
War immediately.
Confronted with that impasse,
the United States read to the Se-
curity Council President Truman's
statement that the U.S. never had
any intention of sending troops
into China.
* * *
MALIK ATTACKED America's
role in Korea and the Far East
once more, said the resolution was
based on illegal council decisions
and he would vote against it. There
were reports last night that the
backers of the resolution, includ-
ing the U.S., might not press for a
vote immediately in view of a cer-
tain Soviet veto.
Malik insisted that the Coun-
cil hear a three-page statement
from Peiping denouncing the
U.S. on charges of aggression
against China and Korea.
When Malik had spoken and the
statement of the Peiping regime
was read, Ernest A. Gross, U.S. of-
ficial, read into the record Presi-
dent Truman's pledge that the U.S.
"never at any time entertained any
intention to carry hostilities into
China."
Malik's announcement that he
will vote against the resolution had
been expected from the start of
this case in the Council. The back-
ers are expected to urge the Gene-
ral Assembly to act after the veto.
Malik said the resolution is bas-
ed on illegal actions of the Secur-
ity council in ordering UN forces
into Korea while the Soviet Union
and Red China were not on the
souncil,
Egyptians Ask
British Troops
To QuitSuez
CAIRO, Egypt-()-Egypt yes-
terday challenged the validity of
the Egyptian-British defense trea-
ty of 1936 and pledged cancella-
tion if Britain does not remove
her troops from the Suez Canal
Zone.
The threat was made in a for-
* mal speech from the throne, read
by Premier Nahas Pasha for King
Farouk I at the opening of Parlia-
ment.
It marked the first time an
Egyptian government has official-
ly pledged before Parliament to
denounce the treaty unilaterally if
Britain does not agree to Egypt's
longtime demands for withdrawal
of the troops and transfer of the
Anglo-Egyptian Sudan to Egyptian
rule.
King Farouk's speech declared
"'the treaty is no longer regarded as
legal and "there is no other alter-
native than to decide its cancel-
lation."
With unusual speed, Britain re-
jected the Egyptian views. A for-
eign office spokesman told a Lon-
don news conference Britain does
not recognize Egypt's right to
upset the 1936 treaty, which binds
the two countries together for 20
years. The spokesman said Brit-
ain's -attitude on the 'Sudan-that

the Sudanese should have the
right to decide their own future-
remain unchanged.

The sleet made the going rough

Foreign Aid
Vital To Stop.
Reds--Stone
By CAL SAMRA
Communist aggression must be
fought on two fronts-on the mili-
tary front and on the economic-
political front, Donald C. Stone,
administration director of the Eco-
nomic Cooperation Administra-
tion, said yesterday.
In a Rackham Amphitheatre
lecture sponsored by the Institute
of Public Administration, Stone
focused his speech on "ECA's Role
in the Defense of the Free World."
* * *
THE KOREAN WAR, he said,
has pointed out the immediacy of
the dangers of Communist aggres-
sion; yet there is danger in the
fact that Korea may cause Ameri-
-cans to emphasize military as-
pects in neglect of foreign eco-
nomic aid.
"Preventive war is the most
horrible means of solving the
problem," he declared. "More-
over, we've learned that you
can't stop ideas with bullets."
Stone cited examples of the
success of ECA in assisting the re-
habilitation of both European and
Far Eastern countries.
IN 1947, there was nothing but
despair in Europe, according to
Stone, but immediately after Con-
gress voted Marshall Plan appro-
priations and ECA aid, the feeling
of futility was replaced by hope.
"Within a two year period,
European production has ex-
ceeded pre-war production by
25%," he asserted. "With this
new capacity to meet the neces-
isary elementals of life, living
standards also showed a marked
increase."
"However, more important is the
strengthening of democratic gov-
ernment in Europe, particularly in
France, Italy, Greece, and Tur-
key. There has been a steady de-
cline in Communist strength in
these countries," he explained.
"ECA is trying to demonstrate
that better living conditions exist
under freedom, and its programs
have put emphasis on bread and
butter for the masses," he added.

Temperatures rose from previous
near-zero levels, however.
* * *
CHINESE and Korean Commu-
nists pulled back a little more in
the northwest and north-central
sectors. The steam went out of a
North Korean Red counterattack
in the far northeast.
The U.S. First Corps advanced
on a 30-mile front in the north-
west against practically no op-
position.
On the west end of the line, the
Korean Republican First Division
moved four miles northwest of
Pakchon, seven miles north of the
Chongchon River, and the British
Commonwealth 27th Bridgade roll-
ed through Pakchon and pushed
about three miles north.
* * *
NORTHEAST of Pakchon, the
U.S. 24th Division advanced up to a
mile and one-half and sent patrols
as far as Yongsong. The U.S. First
Cavalry Division moved almost a
mile north of the old walled city
of Yongbyon.
These advances swelled the Al-
lied Chongchon River bridge-
head northward and westward.
On the bridgehead's east side,
the Korean Republic's Second
Corps struggled back to Tokchon,
25 miles east of Yongbyon, and
thereby regained most of the four
miles lost to counterattacking Reds
earlier in the week.
* * *
TO THE NORTHEAST, the U.S.
Seventh Infantry Division sent one
spearhead up the east banks of the
Pujon reservoir and another-the
U.S. 17th Regiment-five miles
north to the 41st parallel against
Red tanks, artillery and infantry.
The advance, yesterday's biggest,
put the 17th only 20 miles south
of the Manchurian border on the
road to Kapsan.
Meanwhile, U.S., British and
Turkish troops cleared highway
and rail lines for shipment of more
winter clothing to the troops at
the front.

Vote Recount
To Be Honest

Wayne Canvass
DelaysRetally
LANSING -(P)- The chairman
of the State Board of Canvassers
promised yesterday an all-out ef-
fort to make certain the Michigan
governorship election recount is an
honest, impartial affair.
The chairman, Secretary of
State Fred 'M. Alger, Jr., said he
was determined the recount will be
operated to restore public confi-
dence in the election system, re-
portedly badly strained by a se-
ries of post-election errors and
mishaps.
* * *
ALGER SAID he hoped to see
the recount start by Dec. 4. He ex-
pressed belief that the official can-
vass of all 83 counties could be
completed today.
Reports from Wayne County,
however, indicated the Wayne
canvass would not be over until
Dec. 4, and the state would need
a day or two to complete its end
of the transaction.
Former Governor Harry F. Kelly,
the Republican nominee, has call-
ed for a state-wide recount of 4,361
precincts to contest his "defeat"
by Governor G. Mennen Williams.
Williams' margin of victory in
an unofficial tabulation of official
county canvasses was 1,152.
"As far as I am concerned," Al-
ger said, "there will be no jockey-
ing for votes but a straight recount
no matter who wins."

TOO LITRLE TIME:
SL Evaluation Proj ect
Abandoned by Students

A five-man group of students
last night dropped a plan design-
ed to evaluate independent Stu-
dent Legislature candidates for the
benefit of the 800 foreign students
on campus.
Lack of time and finances were
the preventive factors, according
to Ed Lanning, who with Uzoma
Ojika, Sadyesh Sanerjee, Anasta-
sio Farjo and Ram Desai make up
the informal committee.

Merry Christmas?

Originally the group had ,plan-
ned to send letters to individual
foreign students which would set
forth some of the issues involved
in the election and list candidates
taking specific stands on particu-
ral issues. It was reported that
only independent candidates were
contacted.
When approached by tele-
phone, the SL candidates were
not told with whom they were
speaking.
The callers simply aske'd, "What
will you do if you are elected?"
-* *
ISSUES considered by the group
to be important to the foreign stu-
dents included dormitory and
rooming restrictions and the new-
ly organized Human and Interna-
tional Relations Committee of the
SL.
Although the original plan for
evaluating candidates failed, the
informal committee did take
some action.
It decided to recommend that all
foreign students read next Sun-
day's SL section in The Daily with
the idea of selecting candidates
who might best represent them.
The group also urged all foreign
students to attend an open house
to be held for the benefit of SL
candidates from 8 to 12 p.m. to-
morrow at the International Cen-
ter.

President.
He brushed off the Republican
[ection gains as normal hin a
on-Presidential year and said
hey don't make him blue, even
hough they're not what he ex-
ected.

THE PRESIDENT said he'll pre-
ent his full program to the 82nd
ongress when it convenes in Jan-
ary-this in face of GOP claims
hat the "Fair Deal" was killed
y the Nov. 7 election.
But he told his first news
conference since the election
that he has decided against call-
ing Congress back in advance
of the Nov. 27 date it set for

sentation before Nov. 27.
Before turning to domestic af-
airs, Truman read a statement
ledging this country to take
every honorable step" .to keep
he Korean War from spreading
o China or elsewhere. But he
rarned at the same time:
"If the Chinese Communists
hare the desire of the United Na-
ions for peace and security in the
'ar East, they will not take Upon
hemselves the responsibility for
bstructing the objectives of the
nited Nations in Korea."

SHARPLY, TRUMAN TOLD a
uestioner that Secretary of State
cheson is going to keep his job

rime target of Republican critics
f the Administration foreign poll-
y, and many have demanded his
esignation.
When the questioning turned to
olitics, the President grinned and
aid of his own wrong guess-he
ad predicted a Democratic land-
lide-he was like all the pollsters
nd prediction-makers.
The GOP gains, Truman assert-
d, were the smallest scored by
ither party in an off-year election

ion of 1934.
The President also said he's not
eady to make any comment on
vhether he'll seek reelection in

Army Invents
Atom Gamma
Ray Detector
A simple and inexpensive de-
vice which individuals can carry
wround with them to tell if they
have been exposed to atomic ra-
liation after an A-bomb attack
has been developed in Army Sig-
nal Corps laboratories.
The device, called the "photo-
raphic dosimeter," can be made
for less than a dollar, and is worn
around the person's neck like a
soldier's "dog tags," according to
an Army bulletin released yester-
day.
The dosimeter will measure very
slight to fatal doses of radioactiv-
ity. Large quantities of the new

gadget will not be available for
at least six months, the bulletin
said.
Developed by a private company
under Army sponsorship, the dosi-
meter is made of a metal case con-
;aining photographically sensitiz-
ed film and a pod of developing
solution.
When the film strip is exposed
to the dangerous gamma rays, the
