Center Here

Backs Research
By GENE HARTWIG
Plans for the possible esta
lishment of a television resear
center here under sponsorship
the Fund for Adult Education
the Ford Foundation were a
nounced yesterday.
Final okay on locating the pr
posed center in Ann Arbor is pen
ng a meeting of the resear
group's board of directors Octob
8 and 9 in New York City.
THE ORGANIZATION, call
the Educational Television ai
Radio Center, will be headed k
President H. K. Kewburn of t]
University of Oregon, who h
resigned his position at Oregon e
fective Thursday 'to take char
of the group here.
Negotiations have almost bee
completed to locate the insti
tution in a house at 1610 Wash
tenaw Ave.
A petition for "change .of us
of the property on a year-to-ye
basis will be heard by the Ar
Arbor Board of Zoning Appea
tomorrow.
The Board of Regents has agree
to purchase the property and lea
it to the research organization
the change is approved.
ACCORDING to Lyle M. Nelso
representative for the researc
group, the center will have no fo
mal tie with the University or ar
of its departments.
"We are planning to locate
here because of the central loca-
tion of the University in rela-
tion to other educational insti-
tutions in the country," Nelso1
commented.
Nelson pointed out that the o
ganization will be supported large
ly by Ford Foundation funds a
first, with the hope that simila
groups wil contribute later.
The research center is an inde
pendent non-profit organizatio
established by the Fund for Adu
Education of the Ford Founda
tion, to gather and then dissemi
nate educational materials fc
television programs.
Nelson described the work of
the center as highly important
in the expanding field of adult
education.
The question of whether ther
will be any charges to televisio
stations benefiting from the cen
ter's activities will be decided i
the October board meeting Nelso
said.

WASHINGTON-(A)--A pair of

The Army contends the docu-

isn't Red propaganda at all and
was intended merely to give in-
telligence officers a picture of the
Russian people for use in event of
war.

LOUISVILLE, Ky-(A)-At least
21 men lost their lives yesterday
when a plane carrying soldier
trainees from Camp Kilmer, New
Jersey, crashed and burned at
Standiford Field, Louisville.
The plane, operated by Resort

rying a crew of three and 39

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.-(A)-
India's V. K. Khrishna Memon
yesterday called on the UN As-
sembly to request formally a per-
sonal meeting of the chiefs of state
of the big powers in an attempt to
solve the world's troubles.
Menon said the peace of the
world is the responsibility of the
great powers-"primarily of the
two giants-the United States and
the Soviet Union." He said they
alone have the means to enforce
peace.
* * * -
HE ALSO urged the Assembly to
issue a declaration calling on the
United States and Russia to prom-
ise never to use atomic and hydro-
gen bombs and other weapons of
mass destruction.
Referring to a meeting of the
chiefs of state, he said "this idea
is what humanity cries for."
Some diplomats here said they
looked on the Indian proposal cou-
pled with Churchill's statement
Monday as twin moves to put
pressure on the United States t
agree to a top level conference on
world problems.
MENON apparently meant that
Britain, the United States and the
Soviet Union should send their
chiefs of state to such a confer-
ence.
The United States delegation
said any reaction to Menon's
proposal on a meeting of the
big powers would have to come
from Washington since it in-
volved the President. ,
In Washington, however, the
State Department said it failed to
see how a top-level conference
such as Churchill suggested could

Atomic energy, bgreaurcracy, the simple hill folks of Tennessee

nounced yesterday.

WASHINGTON -O) - The Air
Force announced yesterday step-
ped up production of giant Boeing
B-62 jet bombers and North Amer-
ican F-100 supersonic jet fighters.
Exactly how many planes will be
ordered under the new program
has not been decided, Secretary
of the Air Force Talbott said.
HIS ANNOUNCEMENT stressed
that the additional bombers will
be turned out by Boeing's aircraft
plant at Wichita, Kan., "to elimi-
nate" the danger of a single source
for this important aircraft." Boe-
ing's Seattle plant now produces
all B-52s.
Talbott said Boeing will be
given sufficient time on deliver-
ies to tool up its Wichita plant
at an estimated cost of 250 mil-
lion dollars.
He said the expanded fighter
and bomber production was order-
ed only after "extensive tests" of
the planes, a precaution taken to
avoid major modifications of new
aircraft after they have come off
the production line.
* * *
TALBOTT SAID the F-100 has
exceeded the speed of sound in
level flight during initial tests, has
completed its first and second
phase tests and "all indications
ar that it will meet its final tests
successfully."
The huge B-52 is powered by
eight Pratt and Whitney J57 jet
engines, has a wing span of 185
feet, is 156 feet long and has a
tail weight of 48 feet.
Talbott said he hopes the Air
Force cutbacks have bden com-
pleted and the Air Force can con-
centrate on accelerating produc
tion of planes which show Most
promise.
The Air Force recently announc-
ed plans to cut aircraft engine
production 400 to 500 million dol-
lars-all in spare engines and
parts.

hurry-up trip to the West Coast
heralds the appointment of Cali-
fornia's Gov. Earl Warren to the
U. S. Supreme Court.
Brownell conferred with Presi-
dent Eisenhower at the White
House, reporting on his weekend
talk with Warren, but declined to
tell newsmen whether he recom-
mended.Warren for the high court
post.
* * *
LATER, informants at the Jus-
tice Department said Brownell had
not yet made any recommendation
to Eisenhower.*
High government officials said
Brownell has had a series'of con-
ferences with Eisenhower on the
question of filling the vacancy
left by the death of Chief Jus-
tice Fred. M. Vinson, who died
of a heart attack Sept. 8.
The situation has' now become
urgent because the high tribunal
begins its 1953-54 session in less
than a week.

3. While the experts remain,
Britain will not remove any equip-

But a point of disagreement was
that Britain wants 3,000 of the ex-
perts to stay on an additional two
and one-half years after the three-
year period is up. Egypt wants
only a "few hundred" to stay on1
only a year and a half after the
