LXI, No. 132 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, FRIDAY, APRIL 17, 1953 SIX PAGES Ike Requests Proof of Red Peace Policy Pravda Denies Russia at Fault By the Associated Press President Eisenhower yesterday challenged Soviet Russia's new regime to prove its peace overtures are sincere by agreeing to global disarmament and by taking con- crete steps to ease the tensions that threaten World War III. "The first great step along this way must be the conclusion of an honorable armistice in Korea," the President said in a speech widely heralded as America's answer to the Soviet peace offensive. * * * ONCE THE PATH of peace has been clearly charted, once the fears of East-West strife have abated, Eisenhower proposed set- ting up a multi-billion dollar fund from the savings of disarmament to wage a "new kind of war"- an all-out global war against "the brute forces of poverty and need." In answer, Pravda declared yesterday that President Eisen- hower failed in his peace pro- gram to prove with facts that Russian policy is to blame for present world tension. The Communist party newspaper ran a 300-word story on Eisen- hower's speech to the American Society of Newspaper Editors in Washington yesterday. Pravda's story, attributed to the Soviet news agency Tass, said Eisenhower had "completely by-passed" the "question of China and the restoration of her national rights, as well as such a question as the restora- tion of German unity in accord- ance with the Potsdam agree- ment. In the United States, some 400 of the nation's leading editors vol- leyed applause as Eisenhower ad- dressed the American Society of Newspaper Editors in his first full- dress 3peech on foreign policy since he entered the White House Jan. 20. Arts Theater Will Present 'On The Way' A psychological drama which touches upon several aspects of society will open at 8:30 p.m. to- day at the Arts Theater and con- tinue through May 3. The Arts Theater's final spring production, the drama is the first American presentation of "On the Way" by Helge Krog. * * * THE NORWEGIAN playwright, who was awarded a state grant in 1950, has created a "play more of ideas than of action," according to Strowan Robertson, director of the play. "There is a lot of very interesting and exciting conversa- tion," Robertson remarked. Krog, who has been described' as a "great feminist" inasmuch as the woman in his plays usually comes off triumphantly, has as his central character a woman doctor, Cecilia Darre, played by Beth- Sheva Laiken. The other characters involved are her father, Kristian Darre, Gerald Richards; her mother, May, acted by Bette Ellis, Grad.; Briger, her brother, Conrad Mat- thaei; Eivind, Stowan Robertson; Karsten Traine Ken Rosen; and Benjamin Grong, John Devoe. I --- rsmmmm Late-Hour Scrubbing -Daily-Betsy Smith OVERTIME-Anna Mueller and Bill Meikle work overtime in the West Quad kitchen because of a student help walkout. 4 * . Protest walkout Staged By StudentEmployes By BOB JAFFE About twenty-five student employes in the West Quad dining' room walked off their jobs last night in a protest against what they cited as low pay and poor working conditions. Abe Morrier, spokesman for the group, said that the protest walkout is primarily because of the present 80-cents-an-hour wage being paid to the men. He said that while student dishwashers only make 80 cents, those non-students employed from outside the dor- mitory in the same job make $1.35 an hour. * * * * THE MEN want an increase to one dollar-an-hour which one group feels would be "commensurate with student help in other parts of the University." 'U Officials Disappointed At Funds Bill Budget Request Cut 85 Per Cent University officials registered disappointment yesterday over a capital outlay's bill filed by the State Senate Finance Committee which cuts 85 per cent off the Uni- versity's budget request. The Senate bill would provide the University with $1,320,000 of the requested $9,930,000. At the same time the bill calls for out- lays of $1,370,000 for Michigan State College. * * * THE MOST keenly felt cuts were those which delay plans for a Medical Science Building and an automotive laboratory on the North Campus. The bill leaves out $1,185,000 for the medical build- ing and $950,000 for the auto lab. Both had figured prominently in University plans for the com- ing year. University vice-presi- dent Marvin L. Niehuss said the requests for funds were "en- tirely legitimate." He emphasized that all the pro- jects requested were important but "those two items are especially im- portant because they involve pro- grams already i progress. The fact that they have been over- looked is of great concern." . * * THE BUDGET BILL does auth- orize $90,000 for the preparation of plans for a new library on the site of the present automotive lab- oratory. Niehuss said it would be very difficult, however, to go ahead with these plans until the new auto building is provided for. "We shall urge inclusion of some provisions for the build- ing itself when the bill is dis-t cussed by the Senate approp riations committee and hope1 that the final draft containst some money for the project," he continued.r Recommended in the Senate bill are: 1) $600,000 to complete alter- ations and modernization of the first floor of the University Hos- pital. 2) $60,000 to begin plans for the modernization of food and general service facilities in the Hospital. 3) $470,000 for a stack library on the North CampusE 4) $100,000 for roads and utilityf extensions on the North Campust 5) $90,000 for plans for a newI general library. The omission of funds for a medical science building puts aI crimp in arrangements forA larger medical school classes. "The building was important int our training plans," Niehuss said, "and we have been asked1 to train more doctors"t Construction on the stack .li- brary will begin as soon as de-f tailed drafts for the building are completed. The final Legislature bill is not expected to be passed until the middle of May, Niehuss said. The House is required to finish their bill by May 1 and the Senate by May 16.

Violators Disagree Over IHC Judic Conditions Devine Lauds Law Training For Politicians Washtenaw County's prosecut- ing attorney, Prof. Edmond F. De- Vine, of the Law School, told Mich- igan Crib members how to pre- pare for a career in law and poli- tics yesterday. Prof. DeVine said that anyone who plans to enter politics should definitely have a background ca- reer in law. * * * "THE SKY is the limit, and any man who wants to spend time doing public work can gain some kind of- job in politics," he said. Prof. DeVine added one caution: "Identify yourself with one party." Prof. DeVine noted that in a small community, it is surprising how many young men turn up as prosecuting attorneys. The main object is to get the new candidate's name and record before the public, he pointed out. This costs a considerable sum in the way of paid advertising such as radio time, posters, pamphlets and newspaper space. "It is surprising, though, how many people are interested in see- ing a good candidate win," Prof. DeVine added. Other reasons cited for the walk-out were an inadequate staff, a system of grading the men on their work and putting the grade on their University re- cord and having "to double work to make up for those who have quit," The men also objected to having to work 150 hours before receiving a five-cent increase. This increase, they said, is even taken away from them if they miss work three times. The group plans to make thei demands known through the stu- dent heads of the dining room, Jim' Hatton, '53BAd., and Deil Wright, Grad. Hatton and Wright are slated to take the students' de- mands to West Quad Manager Lynford E. Tubbs today. Tubbs refused to comment on the walk- out. * * * MEAL SERVICE to students was slowed down slightly and the service staff had to work several hours longer than usual last night. , Leonard A. Schaadt, Business Manager of Residence Halls, said that he was surprised the men hadn't made their demands known to him before walking out. Forum To Discuss Teaching Methods "How and Why Special Tech- niques in Teaching Are Used" will be the topic of the Forum on Col- lege and University Teaching scheduled for 3 p.m. today in Rackham Amphitheater. Candidates accused of violating quad election rules in the spring all-campus elections voiced con- trasting sentiment regarding Tues- day's establishment of an Inter- House Council judiciary to hear their cases. Those accused of violating the rules were Fred Hicks, '54, candi- date for Student Legislature and University's Role in Society' Cited by Aiken "The university is both a model and paragon of society and a re- flector of peoples' opinions, atti- tudes, and desires," visiting Prof. Henry D. Aiken of the philosophy department told the Students for Democratic Action last night. Speaking on the subject "The Role of the University in a Free Society," Prof. Aiken declared that "people get the kind of educa- tion they deserve, because the uni- versity is influenced by social and political ideas and morals." Thus, the university is a "mirror" of the society, and can be academically free only if it exists in a free so- ciety. The visiting philosopher from Harvard University further re- marked that "by infringing upon the scholar's right to secure knowledge in whatever way he choses, you are encroaching upon everyone's rights." Strongly emphasizing the need for uncontrolled thought, Prof. Aiken said that a man should speak when asked to give his po- litical opinions, and not invoke the Fifth Amendment in fear. However, the speaker quickly followed by saying that although a person shouldn't seek protec- tion for his views by hiding be- hind the constitution, his right to do so must be protected. Judge Clark To GiveTalky Charles E. Clark, judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sec- nd Circuit, will discuss "The Il- imitable Freedom of the Human Mind" today at a dinner high- ighting the Law School's Found- r's Day ceremonies. Judge Clark, former dean of the senior class treasurer, Al Strauss, Grad., SL candidate, and Bob Perry, '53, Union vice-president candidate. HICKS, WHO lives in East Quad, admitted to members of the East Quad Council that he had put campaign literature in the wash- rooms of several of the houses. Commenting on the establish- ment -of the judiciary, Hicks said that he "doesn't think that it's completely legal." He said this was because "the IHC it- self isn't recognized officially by the men in the quad" and any body set up by the IHC would be an extra-legal one. However, Hicks thought that in choosing a judiciary divorced from the quad councils, the IHC was being very fair. ** * PERRY, ALSO an East Quad resident, was accused of slipping campaign literature under quad room doors. He had been charged with the same violation last fall. He felt that "the ethics in- volved in this issue should be left for the dorm residents to House Committee Kills Rent Controls WASHINGTON -- (P-) - The House Banking Committee, in a move lead by Republicans, spurn- ed an Eisenhower administration request yesterday and voted to kill most federal rent controls in two weeks. decide. He was "extremely dis- gusted at the time wasted by the IHC with this foolishness." Perry went on to say that he is not bothered by IHC's drawn- out attempt to bring action against him since Men's Judiciary has pre- viously pointed out that he is not legally bound by their rule. Strauss, who does notlive in the quads, was accused of "door to door soliciting." He said that he was in favor of setting up a judi- ciary as it would give him a chance to clear himself of the charges against him. GREENERY: 'U' Decorates Mason Court Between-class loungers in tie new Angell Hall addition will soon be able to view a garden in the court of Mason Hall, instead of an unadorned plot of grass. t University plant department workmen have moved in on the court, in the beginning of a spring campus-wide landscaping cam- paign. So far a lone magnolia tree, two ditches and a series of stakes driv- en into the ground show the only evidence of the workmen's efforts. But department officials report that azaleas, hedges, birch and crabapple trees and various types of flowers will be planted in a de- sign within the court. The greenery will be installed as soon as it arrives from the nurs- ery, probably in about a week. Reds Urged To Get Down To Business Communist Bloc Joins U.S. Vote By the Associated Press The UN Command early today said it was ready to resume the Korean armistice talks if the Reds will get promptly down to business on the last key issue- handling of Red prisoners who don't want to go home. A letter turned over to the Com- munists at Panninjom early to- day: 1. Suggested Switzerland as the neutral nation to take custody of such prisoners-in Korea. 2. Went further than the lat- est Red offer by proposing a 60-day time limit after which the neutral state would arrange the "peaceful disposition" of those who still refused to go home. 3. Offered to send lower level liaison officers to Panmunjom as early as Saturday "to discuss mat- ters incidental to reopening plen- ary sessions of the armistice dele- gations . .." WHILE TODAY'S move was made toward a possible truce in the nearly three-year-old war, the first of the Allied sick and wound- ed to be exchanged were waiting at Kaesong, just six dusty miles from freedom. The letter handed over at Panmunjom was from Lt. Gen. William K. Harrison Jr., senior Allied armistice negotiator, to- Lt. Gen. Nam II, senior Red dele- gate. Nam earlier had asked the Allies to resume the full-scale armistice talks. Nearly 50,000 of the 132,000 pris- oners held by UN forces have said they would resist repatriation. When the Allies broke off the truce talks last Oct. 8, the Reds were demanding return of all prisoners. MEANWHILE in the UN, the Communist bloc suddenly ditched its catch-all peace plan yester- day and joined the United States in a historic unanimous vote ap- pealing for an early Korean ar- mistice. The vote was taken on a Brazil- ian resolution in the 60-nation Political Committee. It was the first time the United States and the Soviet Union had voted to- gether on a Korean issue. Sayre Speaks On Polities, Administration There is a need to revive the relationship between politics and public administration, Prof. Wal- lace S. Sayre, head of the political science department of the City College of New York said last night. Speaking on "Some Political Aspects of Public Administration," Prof. Sayre pointed out that poli- tics and administrative agencies ought to be greatly related in a democratic society. "For some time," Prof. Sayre ex- plained, "we thought public ad- ministration had nothing to do with politics." This theory no long- er holds true, Prof. Sayre said. Discussing the connection be- tween party and administrative hierarchies, Prof. Sayre said that the relationship is a "system of accommodation between two very different types of organization."
