"We shall get on as fast as we can," Churchill told the House of Commons in reply to a question from Laborite left-winger Aneurin Bevan. "We shall, do our best, but I should be very wrong not to warn the House that there will be a lag, as there has been in all munitions programs I have seen or been connected with." SPEAKING as his own Defense Minister in debate, the Conserva- tive chieftain referred to Bevan's prediction of last Spring that Britain was trying, to rearm toot fast. Churchill told the House H it 000 defense spending was behind a ver H its sche schedule. Churchill told the House: Britain has made consider- able progress toward building an A-bomb. ) There is less danger of World War III nowsthan at any time since the Berlin air lift of 1948 because of "deterrents against ag- gression" created by the United States, Britain and other nations of the free West. * * * HE REFUSED to merge British troops in the French-sponsored project for a unified European army, though Britain agrees "there should be a European army and that Germany must take an hon- orable place in it." He said Bri- tons would take their place beside such a European army. On atomic research, Churchill said that when he came into office as Prime Minister six weeks ago he found much work had been done. He said this work was "not only on making the crucial mater- ials required for the atomic bomb but in preparing to manufacture the weapon." He indicated A-bomb develop- ment would be one of the things he will discuss with President Tru- man in Washingto next month. At Crisio4r's 'Authority' Prof. Harry C. Carver, a mem- ber of the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics, yester- day leveled an attack on Athletic Director Fritz Crisler's "control" over University athletics. Lending support "in the main" to Prof. Hayward Keniston's re- cent criticism of the Board's func- tions, Prof. Carver charged that faculty control of athletics does not exist at the University. ':' * PROF. CARVER, however, took one step further by attacking Prof. Crisler's "authority." "We have director control at the University," he said. "The Athletic Director is automati- cally chairman of the Board and consequently, has 90 per cent of the power." The mathematics professor pro- posed that a faculty member should be chairman of the Board and that the Athletic Director's powers be limited.' * * *, PROF. CARVER also criticized Prof. Crisler for refusing "to co- operate fully with the University's Alumni Office. "Members of the last Univer- sity administration are aware that the Alumni Association and the Athletic Department have not been working together." In reiterating the charges he made at a recent meeting of the American Association of Univer- sity Professors, Prof. Carver said: "If Crisler or members of the athletic staff would cooperate with the alumni office, they would attract far more interest than when we send out a professor of English or mathematics . .." At that same meeting, Prof. Crisler had replied to Prof. Car- ver's charges by indicating that he would resign before he "would beg for athletes or become a col- lection agency for the Alumni As- sociation" Grand Jury Begins Tax Fix Inquiry Lawyer's Claims Strongly Denied WASHINGTON - (.) - Attor- ney General McGrath yesterday launched a grand jury investiga- tion into Abraham Teitelbaum's charges that two men, claiming friendship with Federal officials, tried to shake him down for $500,- 000 with promises of a "tax fix." Teitelbaum, a wealthy Chicago lavyer, told his sensational story to! House tax probers Tuesday. He sworeKthat Frank Nathan and Bert K. Naster led him to believe that they knew of a Washington clique which was on the lookout for "soft touches" like him, and that for half a million they could "make it easy" for him. THE STORY has been denied vigorously. Last night Rep. King (D-Calif.), Chairman of the House Ways and Means Subcommittee conducting the inquiry, ordered a transcript of the testimony, in- cluding charges and denials, sent to the Justice Department for possible perjury prosecutions. Nathan, a former Pittsburgh promoter, made a categorial de- nial of the shakedown story Wednesday. Two names mentioned by Tei- telbaum as members of the al- leged Washington clique were those of Charles Oliphant, Chief Counsel for the Internal Revenue Bureau, and T. Lamar Caudle, formerly an Assistant Attorney General in charge of tax fraud pro- secutions for the Justice Depart- ment. Both men have denied any connection with the alleged plot. Oliphant resigned Wednesday, telling President Truman he was the target of "attacks, vilification, rumor and innuendo beyond the point of human endurance." Caudle was ousted by Mr. Tru- man Nov. 16 for "outside activi- ties" deemed incompatible with his official duties. Just before he announced the grand jury probe yesterday, Mc- Grath expressed complete confi- dence in the integrity of the gov- ernment's legal staff. Suffocation Fatal To Local Infant A three-month-old Ann Arbor baby, Jeffrey Derck, lost a fight for life last night in the emergency room of St. Joseph's Hospital. A sheriff's car rushed the baby to the hospital at a 75 mph speed, but the child was pronoun- ced dead after arrival. Washed Out, WEAKENED FOUNDATIONS-Shattered wreckage is all that remains of a $30,000 San Francisco home after it crashed down a 100-foot hillside as storm-weakened foundations gave way. Resi- dents of the home had already vacated after incessant week-end rains washed out the foundations. FOOTBALL FANS 'COLD': Italian Student Sees A merican A musemnents (EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the third in a series of articles on how Americans appear to foreign students. The writer, a Fulbright scholar, was formerly on the editorial staff of Corrieri di Napoli, a prominent Nearolitan daily.) By ALDO CANONICI Just a few hours after my arrival in New York, I asked the cab driver: "Why not get some music on your radio?" He looked at me as though he thought I was crazy. He almost decided it was worth while to shove me out of his cab and leave me in the center of Broadway. Then he perceived I was a foreigner and shrugged his shoulders crying out: "Don't you know this is the last game between the Yankees and the Giants?" That's the way I was introduced to baseball in New York and to American sports in general. I im- mediately understood that it was something far more important YRis Eleet a-a than music, news or the war in T - Korea. Collins Says A', Weapons Ready Soon Atomic Artillery 'Best in Defense' WASHINGTON -(') - Gen. J. Lawton Collins said yesterday the United States has developed atom-1 ic artillery and he indicated that such weapons may be ready for combat use in the "not too distant" future. The Army's Chief of Staff said1 atomic weapons will not revolu- tionize ground warfare but they will "greatly enhance theupower of defense" and be of greater value in defense than in attack. * * * COLLINS ADDED the Army al- ready is making plans for the day when atomic artillery and guided missile battalions will replace some of the conventional heavy artil- lery. He declined to say when the Army expects to have tactical atomic weapons. "It is not in the too distant future," the Gen- eral said, "but that is all I am going to say." Collins also declared: (1) If Korean truce talks fail, it is possible the Allies will bring greater sea and air pressure against Red China. (2) The United Nations' defense line in Korea is so strong that it will hold "under any foreseeable development that is likely to oc- cur.' (3) Alaskan defenses are strong enough to hold against Soviet at- tack. Discussing atomic artillery, Col- lins said, "We have developed such a weapon, now. The time as to when it would be practicable to put it into use on a large scale, I don't want to go in to because- needless to say-any potential en- emy would like to have that infor- mation." Then the general went on to say atomic artillery "has been tested as a weapon." Disarmament Talks Come To Standstill PARIS-(/P)-The Big Four's se- cret disarmament talks reached an impasse yesterday. The delegates in effect gave up trying for agreement on the con- flicting East-West plans and pre- pared to throw the problem back in the lap of the UN Assembly's political committee. The end came after eight closed door meetings among Soviet For- eign Minister Andrei Y. Vishinsky, U.S. Ambassador Philip C. Jessup, f British Minister of State Selwyn s Lloyd, and French Delegate Jules Moch. r They have met as a sub-com- s mittee under the chairmanship of Assembly President Luis Padilla Nervo of Mexico. Padilla Nervo announced the - group will meet again today. It is e understood, however, that today's - session will consist mainly of a Y discussion on what kind of report o to make to the political commit- e tee Monday. t Still Archbishop, Stepinac Asserts u KRASIC, Yugoslavia-(A)-The f Most Rev. Alojzijc Stepinac slipped - easily yesterday into life as a priest of his native village, but asserted y he remains Archbishop of Zagreb despite conditions imposed in his ) release from a Yugoslav prison." i Reds Press New Demand on Allies In Peace Parley By The Associated Press Communist truce negotiators held out for a "price" yesterday on discussing exchange of Allied prisoners of war in Korea as U.S. Air Force battled Red jets over North Korea for the eleventh straight day. The Reds said Allied acceptance of a Communist plan for super- vising an armistice must come before they would talk about prisoners. They made this evident after Allied delegates presented an eight point revised plan for supervision of a truce which offered some con- cessions to the Reds.

Taft said last night he thinks he can beat Gen. Dwight D. Eis- enhower if the General decides to seek the Republican nomination for President next year. Taft feels confident also that he can defeat Gov. Earl Warren of California, who like Taft has announced his candidacy for the GOP nomination for President. WASHINGTON - Leading European exiles said yesterday more than eight million people have ' been forcibly deported from their homes in middle Europe-most of them sent to slave labor camps-under. Mos- cow's orders. * * * /, 1 Communist I Youths Riot In Tehran TEHRAN, Iran -- (P) - Five thousand Communist-led youths, shouting death threats against Premier Mohammed Mossadegh, fought a wild five-hour battle in the streets yesterday with police, troops, and anti-Red civilians who totaled 10,000. Five persons were reported kill- ed and more than 200 injured. THE COMMUNISTS started it with a defiant march on govern- ment buildings against orders for- bidding demonstrations. The Com- munist Tudeh party itself is out- lawed, but has flourished under- ground. Five thousand alerted police and troops, with swinging clubs and Nationalist civilian backing, beat down the Communists in fighting that lasted from daylight until noon. The 5,000 yelling anti-Reds who fought beside the authori- ties went on a rampage of their own, with clubs and stones for smashing weapons. Nationalist extremist squads ranged through the capital city, smashing at least 10 newspaper offices and some properties of non- Red political factions opposed to Mossadegh's government. HUNDREDS of Communists were arrested. A Red-front peace parti- san headquarters, pro-Communist newspapers and a theater were wrecked by the furious anti-Na- tionalists. The Nationalists scrap- ped mounds of Red propaganda publications. They were believed to be taking advpntage of the Communist riot- ing in order to destroy the known underground quarters of the Tu- deh party. The street fighting was the heaviest since more than 20 per- sons died in riots last June. De- monstrations in Tehran streets were barred after that rioting. Petitions Due for Men's Judiciary Completed petitions for the-three open positions on Men's Judiciary should be returned to the SL build- ing from 3 to 5:30 p.m. today, Bob Baker, SL vice-president announ- ced yesterday. The candidates are asked to make appointments for interviews when the petitions are returned. Thirty petitions, the largest number in recent years, have been handed out, Baker said.j KEY WEST, Fla.-Dean Rusk # stepped out as Assistant Secretary of State for Far Eastern Affairs yesterday to become President of the Rockefeller Foundation. * * * A whopping big storm brought strong winds and dropping tem- peratures to the Northern Plains, Rocky Mountain area and parts of the Midwest yesterday. * * * WASHINGTON - A joint Sen- ate-House Committee yesterday accused a Senate Subcommittee of "crying wolf" in reporting a dan- gerous lag in the nation's defense mobilization program. Philippine Volcano Continues Eruption MANILA-(P)--A cascade of red hot rocks and fiery ash spouted from blazing H~ibok Hibok volcano late yesterday to bring new ter- ror and possibly still more casual- ties to stricken Camiguin Island. It was the fourth major eruption in57 hours for the mile-high vol- cano dominanting the trembling little coconut isle in the Sea of Mindanao. There was no indica- tion Hibok Hibok was subsiding. LEST WE FORGET: 'call Anniversary Of Pearl Harbor Date By CARA CHERNIAK "The University of Michigan takes her battle station as she has in every war." Thus spoke former University President Alexander G. Ruthven Dec. 7, 1941-10 years ago today-when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and the United States was plunged into the most dreadful conflict of her history. PANDEMONIUM broke loose at the University when that fateful announcement disturbed the quiet of a Sunday afternoon. Many male students threw away their books muttering "What's the use of studying-we'll all be 'over there'* pretty soon." I r r- 1-. t tt r .r plan or submii a new one ozf her own at a fourth subcommittee meeting at Panmunjom. Maj. Gen. Howard M. Turner, Senior UN sub-delegate, put the prisoner issue to the Reds yes- terday, proposing to speed con- sideration by placing a second joint sub-committee at work on it immediately. North Korean Maj. Gen. Lee Song Cho, Red sub-delegate, heat- edly replied. "When there is no prospect for progress of the meeting, our sen- ior delegate (Lt. Gen. Nam n) will not give you any answer about the prisoners of war." * * * MEANWHILE in Geneva the Chinese Communist Red Cross re- .fused to take any action toward persuading the North Koreans to let food and medical supplies reach United Nations prisoners in their hands. At yesterday's meeting of the executive committee of the league of Red Cross Societies, Mrs. Li Teh Chuan, Communist China's Minister of Health and President of the Chinese Red Cross, said: "We have only a working con- tact with the North Korean Red Cross, and furthermore we cannot GALENS TAG DAY See Story Page,. ,ew Head- SettleSplit In complete unity last night, the Young Republicans settled the controversy over the Taft-Warren guest speaker issue) and unani- mously elected Floyd Thomas, '52, as new president of the club. Thomas, in summing up the speaker policy, said, "An invita- tion has been extended to Gov. Warren. If he is able to come he will be our first speaker. "However," Thomas continued, "the club would also like to bring Sen. Taft to campus. But this will depend on the club finances." * * * WITH A PURPOSE of clarify- ing any misunderstandings that may presently exist. Joe Neath, '53L, read an executive board policy statement which stressed that "at the present time there is no split among the members of the club." The statement, which was unanimously adopted, also stat- ed that "the club, as such, in- dorses no national candidates until after their official nomina- tion by the National Conven- tion." Other newly elected officers are Theresa Misuaca, '53, secretary, and Lloyd Wright, '52L, member to the executive board . IF IT IS POSSIBLE to joke about a serious question I would suggest that on the seal of the University we could add to the three words, artes, scientis, veritas: football. But this is not peculiar to Michigan. Everywhere in the United States one gives great emphasis to physical activities in colleges. The foreigners are ob- serving a characteristic of this land. Here as in Europe there are a great many teams composed of professionals who consider sports a way to earn a living; but the true, spontaneous feeling fo sports has found in universities its ideal climate. * *N*' IN REGARD TO to the enthusi- asxn, well that's another point. Es- pecially in Latin countries we ar accustomed to a different partici- pation by the public: it is a very warm one. In America we have t admire the picturesque crowd, the scene of dozens of bands, the gi- gantic size of the #stadium-bu not the warmth. * * * BUT SPORTS are not the only form of amusement for students If you look at the daily paper you are astonished at the number o events noted there: concerts, meet- ings, bridge tournaments, parties picnics, lectures, dances. The only difficulty is in the choice. (NEXT: America's philosophy of living. be expected to take over the League's duties in this respect." In the air war one Red MIG-15 was listed as destroyed, one prob- ably destroyed and another dam- aged in the day's battles. It was to stop some of this con- tinual Communist harassing fire that the U.S. Fifth Air Force made 107 ground-support flights yes- terday in a special attack. Thirty-five Red field pieces were officially listed as destroyed. That is more than enough to outfit a Red artillery regiment. Many others were reported damaged. B-36 Group Flies Non-Stop From Africa Fr. WORTH, Tex.-GP)-Six B- 36 Sky Giants, designed to deliver the atom bomb more than 10,000 miles, returned to home base yes- terday with a non-stop training flight to Africa. They came back to Carswell Air Force Base from one of several American Air Force bases being built around the world for global defense. The trip was about 4,984 miles each way. It was the first time the big fel- lows had landed at a new field at Sidi Slimane, French Morocco, according to an intelligence offi- cer. Crewmen called the flight rou- tine. They sported bright red fez- zes and brought excess francs they didn't have time to spend. When they arrived in Africa Sunday they changed their Yankee dollars into francs and then found they could not change their excess francs back into dollars. So they just in- vested most of them in perfumes, wallets, fezzes and hassock covers. .restaurants Bid forUnity - The Ann Arbor Restaurant As- sociation voted last night to de- liberately ignore the recent price cutback attempted by local dairy bar ovxner Tom Thompson in turn- -z r -rr'd rr r n -n .

A spot check of students yes- terday revealed that they have not forgotten the significance of Dec. 7, 1941.
