Bricker Plan Lambasted By ExpertsI By BECKY CONRAD Three University professors yes- terday lambasted the proposed Bricker Amendment to the Con- stitution concerning the Presi- dent's powers to enact treaties and agreements with foreign countries. Sponsored by the University chapter of the Atlantic Union Committee, the faculty discussion centered around three of the four sections of the amendment. PROF. WILLIAM W. Bishop of the law school hit section two of the proposal forbidding any treaty to "authorize oy permit any for- eign power or any international organization to supervise, control or adjudicate rights of citizens of the United States within the Unit- ed States or any matter essentially within the domestic jurisdiction of the United States."j SL Open House Truce Attempts Still1 Saemated Ike Willing To Confer if Reds Prove Sincerity of Peace Claims By The Associated Press Truce negotiators wound through another fruitless session yester- day.

TIDELANDS ISSUE: Faculty Members Call Oil Bill 'PolitilM s Three faculty members interpreted the recent offshore oil bill, awaiting the President's signature to grant submerged oil lands to state ownership as being chiefly a political rather than an economic issue. Prof. George A. Peek of the political science department sum- marized the bill's economic aspects as "a question of whether leasing of lands and consequent tax revenue will go to the states concerned (Louisiana and Texas) or to the federal government. i 1 F itiy 1PIJuU N By The Associated Press A shroud of secrecy veiled yes- Egypt yesterday banned all commercial transactions with the *^ "^ '~rr^l~ a '' ''c- m a^nr f th nm i " Z'iti~h fn^'^^c in th" ^ iv^~ an^l^' ~^ oc^h^~ l ta^ '^t7^ n"t'^1^ li "'^ that some "elements in the United States" do not want a Korean settlement, the Chief Executive declared: "I" have ter ctau± sumeetinoxte .,vmuii- jDiisn ±iicine theLIIbu IzrLnaizon~e as the ilest move in thie uapuie jmet no one in Amxerica who} tee on Student Conduct which over control of the strategic East-West waterway. does not want peace."

And the British leader told newsmen: "The British Labor party and I myself have been vigorously opposing the Communist party in this country since its founda- tion-long before Sen. McCar- thy was ever heard of." On the Senate floor, McCarthy centered his main attack on Att- lee's assertion that some elements in the United States do not want peace in Korea but would rather wage an all-out war against Red China and communism generally. The senator said if the British want to withdraw from Korea, they should get out, and he cried: "Then I say let's sink every ac- cursed ship carrying materials that result in the death of Ameri- Garlin, reporter for various labor publications before the New World Review, discussed the recent subversive label at- tached to the magazine by Rep.
