LXIV, No. 81 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 13, 1954 SIX PAGES , . . s S Dulles Rejects Split In Global Power Secretary Says U. S. Negotiating. Only For Cause Of Human Welfare NEW YORK-0A)--Secretary of State Dulles, speaking two weeks before the opening of the Berlin Big Four conference, last night rejected any deal for a "division of world power" with the Soviet Union. In a speech prepared for the Council on Foreign Relations, Dulles said this country is negotiating only "to advance the cause of human welfare.", He said it will not join any "conspiracy against freedom" to gain an illusion of security by PrenElection City Political Scene Viewed (Editor's Note: This is an interpre- tive article outlining the pre-election political scene in Ann Abor. All- . city elections will be held on April 'By PAT ROELOFS Using the vote turnout in past city elections as reference, it would be safe to predict that not more than 35 per cent of Ann Arbor's registered voters will go to the polys in the municipal elections this spring. Civic minded persons, attempt- atpng to analyze the political situa- tion in the city feel that local cit- izens are "almost totally uncon- scious about city elections." Fig- ures show that between eight and nine thousand Democrats are reg- istered in the city, and nearly 16,- 000 Republicans are on record. Less than 9,000 votes were cast in last spring's election. ANN ARBOR is divided into sev- en wards with two councilmen # elected from each ward. A sugges- tion made to the members of the city Charter Revision Commission by Council President George Sal- lade last night, that wards be re- districted, appeared warranted. A current discrepancy in the division of the city into wards is pointed up in Ward 5 which has 1,000 vot- ers, compared to Ward 7 with more than 6,000 voters. A closer look at the polities of the city reveals not only that there is apparent apathy on the voting scene, but one party, Re- publican, has dominated the membership of the City Council, Board of Supervisors and the mayorship for as long as most . voters can remember. The ability of local Republicans - to repeatedly drum up enough votes to dominate positions in city government has been the starting point for local Democrats ANALYSTS have observed year after year the failure of the Demme ocrats to carry more than one or two wards has been due to apathy in campaigning. Actually Democrats -and Re- publicans differ little on issues facing a city government in a town of this size. Persons criti- cizing the division into two sides on issues of housing, parks, and general city improvements, have noted little difference in the platforms of the two parties. Stirring up issues around elec- tion time has been the practice of both parties in an attempt to gain interest in city problems and elec- tions. * * * , A POSSIBLE issue in this spring's forthcoming election may hinge on the proposed site of the new city hall. Republican officials h a v e nirlked and ajipi n it nn dividing the world "with those who suppress freedom." * * * MANY DIPLOMATS believe the major aim. of Soviet diplomacy now is to win acceptance by the Western powers of a vast Com- munist sphere in eastern Europe and other areas. In his address Dulles also: 1. Reported the Eisenhower Administration has made a basic decision to rely upon "massive retaliatory power" for security of the United States and the free world. 2. Said the Administration's pol- icy will provide more real security at less cost but will not guarantee against all future Communist suc- cesses. There may well be set- backs, Dulles said, but the import- ant thing is to make them tem- porary and "local." * * * 3. ISSUED ANOTHER call for European nations to set up the European Defense Community,' under which French, German and other soldiers would form a unit- ed army. Dulles said Communist agents already are looking for ways to fan distrust between France and Germany into an in- ternational fire. Without EDC, he said, European security and fu- ture peace are in jeopardy. 4. Found hope for eventually resolving Western troubles with Russia by persisting in policies that promote human freedom, because "there are limits to the power of any rulers indefinitely to suppress the human spirit." Dulles devoted part of his talk to the policy of depending on "massive retaliatory power" for defense of the free world. Judge Jails Communist DETROIT-(P)--Federal Judge Frank A. Picard yesterday imposed a 30-day contempt sentence on Philip Schatz, one of six Michi- gan Communists being tried on charges of violating the Smith Act. All are accused of advocating and teaching the violent overthrow of the government. Schatz had refused to answer a question on the Communist ties of a former associate. He began serving the term in the Wayne county jail. He will be released under custody to appear as a de- fendant while the trial continues. Government counsel put the question to Schatz yesterday. He was asked whether Ann Beiswing- er, executive director of the Michi- gan school of social sciences be- tween 1948 and 1950, was an offi- cial of the Communist party. Judge Picard gave Schatz until yesterday to answer. After Schatz again refused, the judge explain- ed to the jury: "In this day and age, we don't have a rack to make him answer. Our only remedytis to find him guilty of contempt."

McCarthy (R-Wis) on the Senate Rules Committee which, among other duties, passes on al- lotments of money for investiga- tions. This means a boost in power for McCarthy at a time when some Democrats aim to trim funds for his investigations subcommittee. * *-* THE RULES Committee also considers disputedmSenate elections and any challenges of. a senator's righttoysit in Congress. If Senate Republicans have any intentions of trying to tone down McCarthy, yesterday's ac- tion doesn't seem to fit into the pattern. The Rules Committee assign- .ment for McCarthy is in addition to those he now has, on the Ap- propriations and Government Op- erations Committees. The Wiscon- sin senator is chairman of opera- tions, the parent committee to the investigations subcommittee. McCARTHY goes on rules under a system worked out by Republi- can and Democratic Senate leaders to let the GOP keep control of ma- jor committees even though the Democrats outnumber them in the Senate 48-47. In addition to McCarthy, the Senate GOP conference voted ex- tra committee posts for three oth- er Republican senators. Panmunjom Peace Talks To Resume Perfidy Charge Not Withdrawn SEOUL - (P)-- U.S. and Com- munist aides today will attempt to revive the preliminary Korean peace talks, which blew up in an explosion of angry words a month ago. The U.N. Command agreed yes- terday to a Communist suggestion that liaison secretaries meet at Panmunjom. But the Reds said nothing about taking back a charge of "perfidy" leveled at the United States. The U.N. representative was instructed to take up the "perf- idy" matter, but there were in- dications the U.S. attitude had softened and a compromise was possible.When the U.S. envoy, Arthur Dean, walked out on the talks Dec. 12 he said he would not return- until the charge was withdrawn. The liaison officers' task is to try to work out conditions and a date for resuming the preliminary talks, which are designed to ar- range a time and place for a Ko- rean peace conference. * * * IN WASHINGTON, press officer Henry Duydam of the State De- partment declined to comment when asked if among the U.S. con- ditions would be a retraction of the perfidy charge. While the liaison officers as- semble, the Neutral Nations Re- patriation Commission will be meeting to argue a new and pos- sibly decisive Indian plan for disposing ofethe explosive pris- oner problem. The commission voted down Sweden's proposal that the 22,-1 000 prisoners who have refused to go home be released Jan. 23, as the U.N. Command demands. Only Switzerland sided with Sweden.. THEN LT. GEN. K. S. Thimay- ya, India's chairman of the com- mission, brought up a secret plan. However it'probably was the same as, or close to, the Indian plan disclosed Monday by a high, au- thoritative source. Under this plan the 22,000 Chi- nese and North Koreans in the anti-Red camp would be turned back to the U.N. Command. The 350 in the pro-Red camp, inclu- ing 21 Americans, would be hand- ed back to the Communists. Loss of Progress 'Cited by Hatcher Governor Presents Balanced Books After Large Cuts In School Budgets By JON SOBELOFF University President Harlan Hatcher said last night that big cuts in the University's budget recommended by Gov. G. Mennen Williams would be a "serious block to immediately needed progress." Gov. Williams' budget recommendations to the Legislature in- cluded a slash of $1,569,000 in the University's request for current expenditures, and complete elimination of a new $977,000 request for "research and service in the utilization of human resources." w * GOV. WILLIAMS also asked the legislators for only $2,500,000 for new construction, improvements of existing facilities and advance planning at the University. The University had requested $14,337,200 for this purpose.

Moliere 's .NVo ted .French Satire To Open Today Moliere's comedy, "Tartuffe," a play concerning near-deception by an imposter, will be presented by the speech department at 8 p.m. today, in the Lydia Mendelssohn Theater. Presented first in May of 1664 for a festival arranged by King Louis XIV of France for his court, Moliere's company gave "Tartuffe" as a part of the entertainment. The festival, given in honor of the Queen-Mother and the Queen, marked the establishment of French social supremacy in Europe and the preparedness of Versailles to accommodate a considerable number of guests. . recent years. The Governor's recommenda- tion was about $1,250,000 higher than last year's appropriation, however. The increased University request for 1954-55 was based on an expected enrollment of 18,500. The present budget was based on a 17,000 enrollment estimate (en- rollment is actually about 17,500 now.) * * - * PRESIDENT HATCHER listed three main reasons why "we'll have to move a lot faster than, the $2,500,000 capital appropria- tion recommended by Gov. Wil- liams will permit." 1).The University must make up for the 25 years (from the late 20's until after World War II) when there were no capital outlays at all. 2) The presently growing de- mands of rising enrollment. 3) Future growth in enrollment (the rise will be gradual for four or five years, then the large crop of "war babies" will hit the col- leges). * * .* Construction Funds Asked By Williams LANSING -- (P) - Gov. Wil- liams presented a $28,800,010 in- stitutional construction an4 re- pair program to the Legislature yesterday. He asked for $14,500,000 from the general fund, compared to $9,- 200,000 allowed for the current fiscal year, and $14,300,000 from the -hospital bond issue fund, compared to about $7,000,000 vot- ed for this year. * * 9 WILLIAMS declared that almost $11,000,000 of the hospital fund request was for. institutional con- struction authorized by pfevious legislatures. .

Dundas P. Tucker of the U.S. Navy stressed the importance of peacetime mili- tary research. "Wars are won," the command- ing officer of the Office of Naval Research Branch Office at Chicago Tucker was instrumental in organizing the Office of Naval Research on a nationwide basis after it was established by Con- gress in 1946: Also speaking at the meeting was Lt. Commander E. S. Church- ill of Naval Research's Washing- ton Office who, along with Tucker, met University officials to discuss aspects of naval research carried on under 30 contracts with the University.
