NEW YORK-0P)-President-elect Eisenhower, just back from his
Korean "look and learn" trip, plunged yesterday into talks on European
unity against communism.
Eisenhower conferred with John L. McCloy, former United States
high commissioner in Germany, and John, Foster Dulles, who will
be his secretary of state.

Alger Waits
For Wa ye
Retabulation
By the Associated Press
Secretary of State Fred M. Al-
ger Jr. Yesterday awaited recount
results in 53 key Wayne County
precincts while Democrats readied
plsans to demand today that the
State Board of Canvassers certi-
fy the reelection of G. Mennen
Williams as governor.
Alger, Republican candidate for
governor, is expected to base his
Sdecision on whether to continue
the recount on retabulated re-
turns in the 63 East Side De-
troit precincts which gave Wil-
liams heavy margins in the elec-
tion.
Meanwhile, James C. Allen, re-
count attorney for Williams, said
he will appear before the State
Board of Canvassers at 2 p.m. to-
day to demand that Williams be
certified to his third term in of-
fice.
ALGER both slipped and gained
as big chunks of votes changed
hands today.
In Washtenaw County, the
recount was completed yester-
day with the exception of two
Ypsilanti Township precincts
where an irregularity concerning
inspection officials arose. On
the basis of the other 30 coun-
ties checked, Williams gained a
total of 61 votes.
The question of the inspectors
will probably be decided tomor-
row when the County Board of
Canvassers will hold a hearing on
whether the inspections had taken
the oath of office before assum-
ing their duties. If the ballots af-
fected are invalidiated Alger will
gain a net of 186 votes.
* * *
ALGER received a boost when
the Wayne County Board of Can-
vassers credited 300 votes due to
an error in the official canvass.
The error was uncovered in
an adding machine audit of the
Wayne County canvass, which
showed Alger had been short-
changed 100 votes and Williams
given 200 votes too many.
This shift changed Williams'
official canvass lead over Alger to
8,318.

Court Kills
LoyaltyOath
WASHINGTON-(RP)-The Su-
preme Court knocked out Okla-
homa's loyalty oath law yesterday
on the ground that it does not pro-
vide adequate safeguards for the
innocent.
Justice Clark, who wrote the
court's 8 to 0 decision, said that
under the act association alone
determines loyalty-"it matters
not whether association existed in-
nocently or knowingly."
* * *
"INDISCRIMINATE classifica-
tion of innocent with knowing
activity must fall as an assertion
of arbitrary power," Clark said. "It
offends the due process of law."
The Oklahoma law required
state officers and employes to
swear, among other things, that
they had not belonged to any
group listed by the U. S. attor-
ney general as subversive or as a
Communist-front for five years
prior to taking the oath.
In Oklahoma City, the author of
the law, Rep. Bill Shibley, said
he will introduce a new loyalty bill
in the Legislature next year, draft-
ing it to meet the Supreme Court's
requirements.
IN OTHER cases yesterday, the
court:
1. Ruled for the first time that
use of wire-tap evidence in state
courts does not violate the Federal
Communications Act.
2. Refused to interfere with a
federal grand jury investigation of
an alleged world oil cartel.
Ike Elected
WASHINGTON - (P) - The
nation's Electoral College yes-
terday chose Dwight D. Eisen-
hower as the 34th U. S. presi-
dent-presumably by a 442 to
89 count.
This carries out the mandate.
of last Nov. 4, when the na-
tion's voters chose the electors
in casting 33,927,549 votes for
Eisenhower, the Republican
presidential candidate, to 27,-
311,316 for Gov. Adlai Steven-
son, the Democratic standard
bearer.
But Eisenhower's selection as
the next president still won't
be official until Jan. 6 when
Congress meets in joint session
for the Electoral College vote
to be counted by the president
of the Senate.

Put Korea Peace
Hopes up to Reds
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.-(A)-The United States last night
laid down a "no compromise" policy on a Korean truce and served
notice it cannot see any purpose in sending fresh plans to the Reds for
settling the prisoner of war issue.
"The responsibility for whether there shall be peace in Korea
clearly lies with the Chinese Communists and North Korea authorities
and their supporters," the State Department said in an official
statement after Red China rejected the UN plan for ending the
Korean War.

Says
THE UNITED STATES statem
carefully the blunt rejection by
Red China of the UN Assembly's
Korean peace plan and Peiping's
stiff counter-prqposals.
The terms laid down by the
Chinese Reds are identical to
those put forward earlier by
Russia's Andrei Y. Vishinsky and
rejected by the Assembly in a
one-sided vote.
V. K. Krishna Menon, Indian
delegate who wrote the Assembly
plan, commented that the situa-
tion is "not hopeless." He said the
Red Chinese reply does not show
that they are not willing to nego-
tiate. He would not comment fur-
ther until he had a chance to ex-
amine the 3,000-word cable from
all angles.

UN delegates studied
WILLENS admitted that some
"stumbling blocks"arose in the dis-
cussions, but would not elaborate
on his statement. Difficulty has
reportedly arisen in writing a
pledge which sponsoring groups
would be required to sign before
bringing speakers to campus.
Under the Legislature plan,
the group and its members would
certify that the proposed speaker
would not violate any Regents'
criteria governing campus talks.
Several faculty members of the
Committee reputedly advanced al-
ternative plans which would re-
quire sponsors to guarantee that
the speaker's reputation and back-
ground were free from a subversive
taint.
This suggestion is in conflict
with the SL proviso asking that
content of a speech rather than
speaker's background be the chief
criterion in judging a talk.
** *
THE WHOLE emphasis of the
Legislature proposal has been
directed at post-judgment of
speeches and not pre-judgment of
speakers.
Willens declined comment last
night on the possibility that SL
would withdraw the plan from
Lecture Committee considera-
tion if the "stumbling blocks"
were not cleared away within
the next few days.
Composed of five voting facul-
ty members, the lecture group also
has two non-voting student ob-
servers who are given speaking
rights at meetings. Willens and
Phil Berry, Grad., are serving as
representatives at the present
time.
In addition, two other students,
Ted Friedman, '53, and Dave
Brown, '53, have participated in
discussions of SL's plan. Both have
done extensive work on the meas-
ure.

WASHINGTON-(')-The State

career diplomat John Carter Vin-

found "there is reasonable doubt
as to his loyalty."
At the same time, the Depart-
ment announced that the U. S.
Civil Service Commission's Loyal-
ty Review Board has found "no
reasonable doubt about the loyal-
ty" of John Paton Davies Jr., an-
other key State Department ca-
reer officer.

COACH HARRY Combes' de-
fending Big Ten champions build
up a 10-1 margin with 2:45 gone
in the opening period, expanded
it to 21 points at halftime and
went 30 points to the fore in the
final session on the road to their.
second win in two starts.
Michigan's best chance to
make a game out of it came
early in the first stanza. With
Illinois leading, 24-15, and
thirty seconds remaining in the
quarter. Milt Mead converted
on the end of a fast break and
John Codwell canned a free
throw to narrow the gap to 24-
18 after ten minutes.
Guard Don Eaddy 'threw in a
jump shot as the next round
opened, but that was an close as
the Maize and Blue got. With 6-9
center John ' (Red) Kerr and
guard Irv Bemoras hitting from
all over the floor, the Orange and
Blue reeled off a string of 11 suc-
cessive markers to go ahead 35-
20.

Then, after Mead meshed a
tip-in, Illinois cashed in on ten
more points in a row to go on
top, 43-24. The Champaign five
lead at halftime by a 49-28 count.
Coach Bill Perigo's quintet
showed a surge of power as the
second half began. Codwell
funnelled in a one-hander, Ead-
dy counted a foul toss, and
Lawrence dented the twines
with a long set shot. That made
the score 51-33 and things were
looking rosier.
Kerr, the red-topped Illini piv-
ot-operator, drew his fourth per-
sonal foul with two minutes gone

PRESIDENT Lester B. Pearson
of the Assembly received the Com-
munist Chinese reply yesterday
morning and began work on a re-
port to the General Assembly. The
problem uppermost in the minds
of the delegates is: What next?
The indication grew that the UN
will mark time on the Korean is-
sue until after the inauguration of
President-elect Eisenhower. A new
United States delegation, headed
by Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge Jr.
will take its seat then and the
prospects are that the Assembly
will resume considation of the Ko-
rean problem in February.
Red China's rejection was broad-
cast last night by the Peiping
radio.
" The Peiping statement called
the Assembly peace plan "unjust,
illegal and unreasonable.",

In Escape Try
PUSAN, Korea-(P)-The Unit-

mand reported today two more
Communists had died of wounds
when Allied guards quelled a mass
breakout attempt on Pongam Is-
land Sunday.
It brought to 84 the announced
prisoner dead in the organized riot
by 3,600 die-hard North Korean
Reds. The UN Command said
many died of bayonet wounds.
Some 120 prisoners were wounded.
TWO U.S. AND two South Kor-
ean soldiers also were injured by
rock-hurling Reds who ignored all
orders to halt and charged the
guardsinwaves, the UN command
announced.
It was the bloodiest uprising yet,
exceeding by one the number of
Red prisoners killed in a Feb. 18
riot on Koje Island.

PARIS-(/P)-American demands
for more fighting strength in Eur-

Atlantic Treaty Conference yes-

tion to take it easier.
American Gen. Matthew B.
Ridgway,.commander of European
forces of NATO, walked into the
1952 review meeting of NATO and
asked firmly for quick approval of
a 428 million dollar defense build-
ing program. He got a soft re-
sponse.
LORD ISMAY, NATO secretary
general, told correspondents after
the meeting that,it was quite pos-
sible no buildi : program would
be approved this session despite
the wishes of Ridgway and his
staff to get it going with the first
good weather.
The afternoon meeting was se-
cret andLord Ismay declined
to say what Ridgway has asked,
but sources close to the general
said he was prepared to make
"a strong speech." Only last
week the SHAPE commander
said the need for stronger
forces was as great now as it
ever had been and Europe now
was not adequately defended
against possible Russian inva-
sion.
Forty-two ministers from the
fourteen countries-those for for-
eign affairs, finance and defense

The British Commonwealth Con-

Europe is talking about a NATO
