Lowell Kelly, Director of the Bureau of Psycho- Alogical Services, declared here yes- terday before a conference of the 14ichigan Federation of Teachers.j A lively panel discussion of "Academic Freedom" and a move to bring pressure for higher teach- ers' salaries were other features of the second annual session of the SAFL-affiliated Michigan Federa- tion. PROS. KELLY now serves on an advisory board to Selective Ser- vice Director Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey. In this position, he has helped formulate the present day draft policy. *.The draft bill Congress is now trying to smooth out will prob- ably leave the question of defer- ment in the laps of the individual draft boards. "A few local boards may prove unfriendly to college students, par- ticularly those in so-called unes- sential fields," he said. However, he expected that most would go along with the recommendations of Hershey and his advisors. PROF. KELLY defended the col- lege deferment program from charges of being "undemocratic." "We must recognize that people are not equal in abilities, and we nust train, those most fitted for positions of leadership." He died admit that inequity ex- isted in the case of men financi- ally unable to obtain a college education. "But the inequity is not reduced by drafting college students along with those cap- able but unable to attend," he said. "The advisory board pondered this problem a long time before we made our recommendations," he said. "The only way out we saw was to set up a system of federal scho- larships." 4 s e Must Crush Reds m Iorea 1ac Arthur Warns Arab Attack Beaten Back By Israeli Syrian Troops Consolidate Gains FRONT LINE CONFAB-Lt.

Air strikes were called. Artil- lery opened up on other small pockets of Chinese west, north and east of Uijongbu. AP correspondent John Ran- dolph said Allied commanders be- lieved these Reds were the south- ern screening force of large Chin- ese concentrations south of the 38th parallel of the western front. TURNING TO the overall mo- bilization set-up, Prof. Kelly re- ported that substantial progress had been made in bringing order out of the chaos which was preva- lent during the first post-Korea days. "At one time, twelve government .agencies were pushing and pulling against each other on mobilization matters. But now, manpower ques- " tions are coordinated by one agency, headed by the capable Arthur Flemming, formerly Civil Service chief and president of Ohio Wesleyan University. r "The American people are too quick to label a situation black or white," he asserted. "During an all-out war, we are capable of tremendous sacrifices. But if j, there is something less than war, we are reluctant to do anything at all." * * MEANWHILE, Prof. Preston Slosson of the history department, pleading a panel discussion of "Aca- demic Freedom," spoke out against what he termed "interferences of sstudent freedom." "I have known no instances of ' restriction of academic freedom of teachers at this University," he declared, "but I have known cases of suppressions of student liberties." Prof. Slogson went on to cite the recent extension of University con- ,trols over speakers at Lane Hall as an example of compromised stu- dent freedom. - He alsotmentioned cases of Uni- versity censorship pressures on The Daily, most of them many years "ago.

DSR, Union To Try Peace TalksAgain DETROIT-(/P) - Attorneys for the municipally-operated transit system and the AFL Operators' Union resumed their talks yester- day. They have been trying to reach an agreement on the status of the 3,700 operators under Michigan's Hutchinson Act. Management officials still have not agreed to waive application of the act against the strikers and union leaders have insisted that the strike cannot be settled until they do. SHORTLY after the strike started the city notified more than 3,500 of the 3,750 operators that they were discharged under a pro- vision of the act forbidding strikes by public employes. The management and union attorneys were hopeful of com- ing to some form of agreement on legal issues before a union mass meeting this morning. The Department of Street Rail- ways, operator of the system, re- ported that its net loss since the strike began is about $605,000. The loss in revenue has been $1,800,- 000, the DSR said, and operators have lost $662,000 in wages.

Senate Says Korean Policy Never, FirmlySet Slams British Aid To Chinese Reds WASHINGTON-Douglas Mac- Arthur, last night uttered this fi- nal warning to Senate investiga- tors: The free world is "doomed to destruction" if it fails to crush completely the Communist threat in Korea. The five-star general wound up three days of virtually constant testimony at 6 p.m. with a new blast at President Truman, deny- ing he ever violated a presidential order and declaring he never got a firm, workable plan from Wash- ington to carry on the Korean war. "I FELT in all consence," Mac- r ! Arthur said, "I could not go on ordering men to their deaths by the thousands in such a complete Arthur vacuum of policy decision."cIf hitney, MacArthur likewise assailed Rela- what he called Britain's "con- closed plete suport" of Red China, de- claring it not only runs counter to America's best interests but "involves the very life of this na- tion." 1* Earlier he poured out details of the conflict that led to his ouster h as Far Eastern Commander.

S. troops 'in China, the! need for an early Japanese peace treaty, a Pacific Pact modeled after the North Atlantic Treaty, the need of Pacific island defense bases, defense aid to Europe and a desire to make the United Na- tions an effective instrument for peace. The general said, too, that both he and the Administration have spoken out against appeasement of Communism. THE POINTS of agreement were drawn up in a question-and-an- swer exchange between Senator Morse (R-Ore) and the general. 1. Going into Korea in the first place. 2. Holding Formosa.
