Rau met yesterday with Red China's representative in the first attempt here at con- ciliation of the Korean crisis. He said later he still hopes for a solution. "It was my impression that they too would like a peaceful settle- ment," Sir Benegal said to news- men after a conversation of al- most an hour with Wu Hsiu-- Chuan, Chinese Communist repre- sentative to the United Nations. "It is that which makes me hope- ful." RAU SAID he hopes to see Wu again before Monday. It was in- dicated that they talked only on ' preliminaries and did not get down to brass tacks. Wu also talked with Secre- tary-General Trygve Le-for an hour and a half in the new UN building in Manlattan. Lie's spokesman said they discussed general matters and Lie showed Wu the New York City skyline., UN delegates at the same time spoke gravely of Gen. Douglas MacArthur's coment that his lack of authority to hit the Chi- nese Communists across the Man- churian border from Korea is "an enormous handicap, without pre- cedent in military operations." No one here would comment pub- licly except T. F. Tsiang of Na- tionalist China, who said he agreedifully with MacArthur. THE UN GENERAL Assembly is expected to start on the Red- China Korean crisis early next week after the West decides what resolution it wants to offer. , The President of the Assembly, Nasrollah Entezam, appealed yes- terday to world leaders to keep clear heads in the Korean crisis and not be "blinded either by hatred or fear. He told the As- sembly it must consider the prob- lem because the Security Council was stymied by a Russian veto. Two Students Face Bookie ChargeToday Lee Setomer, Grad., and Robert McGuire, '53A, will be arraigned at 9 a.m. today in Circuit Court before Judge James R. Breakey, Jr. The two were arrested Tuesday < by Ann Arbor police on a charge of registering bets. The authori- ties said that Setomer and Mc- Guire were the heads of student run football pools on campus which were exposed in a series of Daily articles. * * * IT STILL was not known yes- terday what the students would plead. There are three possibilities open to them, Assistant County Prosecutor Edmund Devine ex- plained: They may plead guilty, not guilty or nolo contendere. The third means that they won't plead guilty, but neither will they contest the case. Devine would not comment on an informed source's report that the two would plea Aolo con- tendere. LOUIS BURKE, Ann Arbor at- torney who is representing Mc- Guire-and Setomer, also would not say anything definite. in regard to their pleas. "I haven't talked to those fellows yet," he said. "I talked to them a bit when they were arraigned. I expect I'll see them first thing in the morning," he declared. Whatever the plea, Devine ex- plained that the case would not be ended today.

Working committees have been pounding at the prob- lem since a deadlock arose among the treaty nations last October. * * * MEETINGS in London next week may poiit the way to a speedy solution, it was indicated. This, in turn, would clear the way for the selection of a supreme commander for the combined force. This is the post expected to ,be handed Gen. Dwight D. Eisen- hower. American leaders prodded for action amid the urgency of a mounting world war threat. President Truman said Thurs- day that establishment of the European force must be speed- ed up. A British defeise spokesman said yesterday that military lead- ers of the North Atlantic Powers will report Tuesday in London on their progress toward forming a United Western Defense Force.

War Threat Forces Call For 18 Billion Army Issues Call For 50 Thousand WASHINGTON -- (A) - Presi- dent Truman asked Congress yes- terday for a vast new outlay of $17,850,000,000 to build for vic- tory in Korea and prepare for pos- sible attack "in other parts of the world." At the same time the Army step- ped up its draft call and the Navy and Air Force lowered their stan- dards for volunteers to speed ex- pansion toward the military man- power goal of 2,800,00 set by Pres- ident Truman. The President said the armed forces now have a strength of more than 2,225,000, and he told the lawmakers, "Our goal, until this most recent act of aggression, has been a strength of 2,800,000 by the end of the current fiscal year. Now we face the necessity of having to raise our sights." In his message to Congress, the President branded the Chi- nese Communist assault in Ko- rea as "naked, deliberate and unprovoked" aggression, but he declared that whatever happens "we shall not falter or turn back." The President went over the sit- uation in a tense, h ur-long meet- ing with congressional, military and diplomatic leaders at the White House. At noon, he sent a message to Capitol Hill urging the lawmakers to act with the "ut- most speed" in providing $16,800,- 000,000 for swift expansion of the Army, Navy and Air Force. HE ALSO asked $1,050,000,000 to speed the atomic energy pro- gram for production of A-bombs and development of the hydrogen bomb. * * * Cadwell Given 'TOP Civilian Defense Post WASHINGTON-P)-President Truman yesterday set up a Fed- eral Civilian Defense Administra- tion and named a former governor, Millard F. Caldwell Jr., of Florida, to head it. Caldwell's appointment to the $17,500-a-year post, effective at once, was announced after he call- ed on the President. * * 4, PENDING IN Congress is new legislation creating such an agency and the post of administrator with vast powers to guide the nation into a state of readiness to meet any enemy attack. However, the President put Caldwell to work by executive order. His salary is to be paid out of the President's emergency' fund pending congressional ac- tion. Employes at work on civilian defense planning under the Na- tional Security Resources Board will shift over-to Caldwell's com- mand. The appointment does not -re- quire Senate sanction until legis- lation is enacted covering it. Caldwell, 53 years old, was gov- ernor from 1945 to 1949 and now practices law at Tallahassee. He told reporters he would fly home tonight and return here Tuesday or Wednesday. He called the new assignment "a tremendous job." Caldwell was given authority to appoint a $16,000 a year deputy administrator. The new adminis- trator will be instructed to pre- pare "comprehensive federal plans, and programs" for the Civil De- Uncovered PALOS VERDES ESTATES, Calif .-()-A late-and pro- per-Bostonian millionaire was revealed yesterday as one of the world's great collectors of nude paintings, as his $750,000 hideaway here was sold to a church for a reported $60,000. The three and one-half acre ocean front estate in this Los Angeles suburb belonged to the late Harvey C. Wheeler. In his estate were found hun- dreds of paintings of beautiful nude women, some hung on thej walls of the 18 room mansion. But most were stacked in their frames, like surplus furniture.

Union Gives Experimental P lan for Co-ed Recreation Attlee Will Urge--Avoid ChinaWar LONDON-(A')-Prime Minister Attlee will urge President Truman in their talks next week to avoid war with Red China at all costs, British informants said yesterday. Attlee will confer with French Premier Rene Pleven here and may take with him the support of the Paris government for a moderate Western policy in Korea. * s ASSOCIATES pictured Attlee as believing firmly that avoidance of war with Communist China is the only way to keep Western unity. Attlee will leave tomorrow, spend Monday conferring with British officials in Washington, and see President Truman Tues- day. Attlee probably will speak on be- half of most commonwealth gov- ernments as well as his own. He is expected to insist that possible use of the atom bomb against the Chinese is a ques- tion which the United Nations, not the United States alone must decide. The Attlee-Truman talks, how- ever, will probably go well beyond the atom bomb issue.

SWARMS of U.S. Fifth air force fighter-bombers strafed and ro- keted the southbound columns, In- flicting heavy casualties. The abated Communist offen- sive, which already has rolled the U.S. Eighth Army back 40 miles, appeared developing against Songchon. It guards the flank of UN defenses 30 miles north of Pyongyang. In the snowy Northeast sector, cut-off American Marines and in- fantrymen made slow headway on both sides of the Changjin reser- voir in efforts to break out of Red traps and pull, back south. * * * U.S. 10TH CORPS headquarters reported that Marines on the West side of the ice-covered reservoir had abandoned Yudam and were under fierce attack from three sides. The leathernecks were try- ing to reach Hagaru, at the south end of the reservoir 10 miles southeast of Yudam. U.S. Seventh Division infan- tymen on the east side still were hemmed in against the res- ervoir.

Near Kaechon, seven miles north 1,000 Chinese changing from uni- of Sarnso, air observers spotted forms into civilian clothing-a ruse aimed at faciliting nfiltra- tion. The Reds smashed three South Korean divisions defending the east flank and forced the Eighth Army to pull back hastily across the Chongchon to avoid a trap. By HARRY REED University co-eds accompanied by Union members will have the limited use of Union recreational facilities for three and one half months under provisions of an ex- periment revealed yesterday by Union president Jerry Mehlman, '51.

The actual collections for the first half of the two day drive was set at $2,450. "This figure is slightly below the first day tabu- lations for past drives," Griffith' pointed out. "But if we have good weather and generous contributions, I'm confident that the goal can be reached," he continued. test opinion on the changes. This group discussed how to improve the Union, and backed up the idea of allowing. women students es- corted by Union members to enjoy the Union activities. Armed with this approval of many campus or- ganizations, the proposal was brought up before the Union Board of Directors meeting. This group decided to test campus reactions to permanent co-ed Union relations by this experimental period. The Board will review the co-ed use of facilities marie possible by this drastic change in Union poli- cy two weeks before spring vaca- tion, and decide whether it should be a permanent policy.

Orders Called Big 'Handicap' By MacArthur WASHINGTON - (P) - Gen. Douglas MacArthur said yesterday that orders forbidding him to strike across the Korean border at the Chinese Communists are put- ting United Nations forces under "an enormous handicap, without precedent in military history." MacArthur called the situation in Korea critical but not hopeless in view of the tremendous re- sources that the free nations of the world still can throw into the fight. He said it wouldn't be appropri- ate for him to comment on the possible use of the atom bomb against the Chinese Reds-al- though his chief intelligence offi- cer said the situation is not des- perate and implied that the bomb is not needed.
