By The Associated Press
The Allied Big Three Foreign Ministers gathered in Bonn, Ger-
many last night to sign the pact that will set the West Germai key-
stone into the ramparts of Western defense against Communist
aggression.
After final talks today and possibly tomorrow to iron out three
still unsettled points, they are due Monday to sign a peace contract
with West German chancellor Konrad Adenauer granting nearly full

SL Cabinet
Seeks New
Bias Solution
Sees No Further
Legislative Acts
By HARRY LUNN
The Student Legislature cabi-
net decided yesterday to recom-
mend an educational rather than.
a legislative approach to the bias-
clause problem.
Meeting to consider follow-up
action on President Hatcher's veto
of the SL sponsored, SAC ap-
proved anti-bias mneasure, SL
leaders ruled out any further leg-
islative methods as unfeasible at
this time.
s * -
THEY DISCUSSED possible
means of action on the problem
for next fall. Wednesday the cab-
inet issued a statement calling
President Hatcher's decision "re-
grettable" and reaffirmed their
belief in the basic principles of
the vetoed proposal, but prom-
ised further action in the human
relations field.
Cabinet members are plan-
ning to work on the discrim-
ination problem through a pro-
gram of continued action by
the SL Human Relations Com-
mittee and cooperation with the
newly formed Big Ten IFC-
Panhel Counseling and Infor-
mation Service.
Commenting on future anti-bias
action, Panhel president Diane
Harris, '53, and Interfraternity
Council president Pete Thorpe, '53,
said last night "we hope that the
SL too will feel that an education-
al and informative policy will be
cne of the best methods of solving
this problem."
"Certainly a feeling of coopera-
tion between the two groups would
be of great benefit to the whole
counseling service," they added.
OUTLINING the progress of
the Big Ten Counseling and In-
formation Service to date, Miss
Harris revealed that letters had
been sent to all the Big Ten
schools asking them to appoint
students from the local ]FC and
Pan-hel to head up the individual
campus programs.
Newly appointed Michigan
leaders, Dick Manchee, '54 of
IFC and Joan Pruitt, '53, of
Panhel are now recruiting stu-
dents from all fraternities and
sororities to help staff the cam-
pus organization. Manchee and
Miss Pruitt will be in charge, of
the Big Ten organization which
will be connected with the local
program.
Locally, Panhel last week held
a meeting of all sorority delegates
to national conventions scheduled
for this summer. At that time an
outline of the campus situation
covering past SL arid Panhel ac-]
tion and the new Big Ten pro-
gram was given to delegates for
their use at the conventions. ;
The IFC is planning a similar
meeting before the end of the se-
mester.

Lectureship
Established
To LaudDean
A Hayward Keniston Lecture-
ship was founded yesterday when
the Board of Regents accepted a
grant for its establishment.
The Lectureship has been
-founded as an "appropriate form
of public recognition" for former
Dean Keniston who stepped down
from his post as Dean of the
Literary College last year and will
retire this month from the teach-
ing duties he subsequently took
on in the romance languages
department.
One speaker a year will be
brought here with the money
which was collected from the
Literary College faculty. The
lecture will deal with some phase
of the relationship between lib-
eral education and democratic
institutions.
Prof. F. Sanchez y Escribano
of the romance language depart-
ment led the fund raising com-
mittee and Prof. I.L. Sharfman
of the economics department acted
as treasurer. The three other
members of the committee were
Prof. William Haber of the eco-
nomics department, Prof. George
H. Forsyth of the fine arts de-
partment, and Prof. Wesley H.
Maurer of the School of Journal-
ism.

U.S. Demotes
Dodd, Col son.
To Colonels
WASHINGTON -(jP)- The Ar-
my yesterday "broke" the two
brigadier generals involved in the
Koje prisoners' revolt fiasco in
Korea, reducing them to the
rank of colonel, and ordering a
formal reprimand for the immedi-
ate superior.
Demoted were:
1. Brig. Gen. Francis T. Dodd,
the Koje commandant who was
seized and held for several days
by the Red POW's until their
"ransom" demands were met.
2. Brig. Gen. Charles F. Colson,
the man who agreed to the pris-
oners' terms for releasing Dodd.
Both were reduced to their
permanent rank of colonel. As a
result, each will lost $133.38 a
month in pay and $34.20 in rent
alowance.
In addition, the Army ordered
an "administrative reprimand" for
Brig. Gen. Paul F. Yount, com-
mander of the army base section
at Pusan which has jurisdiction
over the Koje Island Prison Camp.
Although mild sounding, a rep-
rimand goes down in the Army's
book as a black mark against the
offender and makes it harder for
him to gain promotion.

breaking for the $975,000 Cooley

called the initiatory ceremony a
"recognition of another great
landmark in the development of
the University."

Allies Warned
Against New
Aggression
By The Associated Press
The United States has inform-
ally warned its 16 United Nations
Allies to be on guard against the
possibility of "renewed Commun-
ist aggression" in Korea.
The State Department belatedly
disclosed yesterday that the warn-
ing of a possible renewal of the
offensive in Korea was given 10
days ago to diplomats represent-
ing UN nations with forces in the
Korean conflict.
Meanwhile armistice negotiators
began a three-day "cooling off"
recess during which the Allies
hope the Reds will abandon their
adamant stand on the prisoner
issue.
Prisoner exchange, with the
Reds insisting on getting back
prisoners who do not want to re-
turn, is the last issue blocking an
armistice for war-shattered Korea.
On the battle front Allied war-
planes struck the greatest-air blow
of the Korean war, turning a huge
Red supply arsenal complex into.
what one pilot called "a little
hell."

House Votes
Close, to Two
Billion_ Slash
Taft Supporters
Dominate Debate
WASHINGTON - MP) - The
House last night passed a $6,162,-
600,000 Foreign Aid Bill after cut-
ting $1,737,400,000 from President
Truman's requests.
The measure now goes to the
Senate.
The roll call vote was 245 to 110.
* * *
TEMPORARILV dominated by
Republicans, the House sliced
$726,500,000 on the floor in addi-
tion to $1,010,900,000 which the
Foreign Affairs Committee prev-
iously trimmed from the Presi-
dent's $7,900,000,000 program.
Backers of Senator Taft (R-
Ohio) led the forces demnding
the cuts. They overrode more
moderate reductions proposed
by supporters of Gen. Dwight D.
Eisenhower. Democratic absen-
teeism gave the Republicans
control during crucial voting
yesterday and Thursday.
The cuts reduced military aid
to Europe by $829,000,000 and
trimmed a total of $908,400,000
from economic aid for Europe and
the Far East. ,
The explosive Middle East and
Latin America were left un-
touched.
The Administration was unable
to salvage the original bill, despite
a warning from Speaker Rayburn
that the United States had lost air
superiority to Russia and must act
to strengthen its Allies.
At the last minute the House
also adopted an amendment re-
quiring the Allies to gear their re-
sources for defense and to take
further steps toward European
unification to get continued aid.
* *
THE BILL as passed contained
these main authorizations for the
year ending June 30, 1953:
Europe-military aid $3,316,-
000,000 .($829,000,000 cut by the
committee); economic aid, $1,-
022,000,000 ($181,900,000 cut in
committee, and another $615,-
300,000 on the floor, by a 221 to
137 roll call vote.)
Middle East--military aid, $606,-
370,000 and economic $196,000,000,
unchanged from Administration
requests.
Far East-military $611,230,000;
economic, $296,800,000 (cut $111,-
200,000 on floor by a 192 to 15
roll call vote.)
Latin America-military, $62,-
400,000; economic, $22,000,000.

Group Plans
Legal Advice
For Students
At an informal meeting yester-
day a group of students laid plans
for setting up a University system
of legal'aid to foreign students.
The group was moved to action
by the recent impending deporta-
tion of Joseph Singh Bains, an
Indian graduate student.
* * *
THE FIRST SUGGESTION by
the group is that forms be avail-
able at registration for foreign
students to fill out to ascertain if
the students are here in full com-
pliance with immigration laws.
The students also plan to con-
tact other schools throughout the
country which have such legal aid
set ups.
Lastly the group has advised
that a "competent legal advisor
be provided by the University.
This advisor would step in if a
foreign student were called before
the immigration authorities for
violation of a regulation and if
the case were taken to a court.
Aiming for action in the fall,
