LXV, No. 128 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, FRIDAY, APRIL 1 1955 icials lasha ame Chane SIX PAGES earing By DOROTHY H. MYERS Daily City Editor Special to The Daily LANSING - The University's top officials rolled up their sleeves yesterday in a fight to prevent Michigan State Cpllege from becoming Michigan State University. At a closed hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee in Lansing, University President Harlan H. Hatcher claimed the pro- posed name Michigan State University "would be an ethical and legal infringement on the name of the University of Michigan." President Hatcher emphasized that while neither he nor the Re- gents oppose a university name for MSC, "they would be derelict in their constitutional duty if they did not vigorously oppose House Bill 156 (which proposes changing MSC's name to Michigan State Uni- vertsity), the name it proposes, and the manner in which it has so far been rushed toward passage." MSC officials quickly denied that the name change would cause confusion or that it was unconstitutional. Present at the hearing in addition to President Hatcher were Regents Vera B. Baits, Roscoe O. Bonisteel, Otto E. Eckert and Charles S. Kennedy. University Vice-President Marvin L. Niehuss, University Relations Director Arthur L. Brandon, Assistant to the President Robert N. Cross and Dean E. Blythe Stason and Prof. Paul G. Kauper of the Law School also sat in during the two-hour session. Representing the opposing side were MSC President John A. Han- nah, Frederick H. Mueller who is a member of the State Board of Agri- culture, MSC's governing body, and MSC attorney Leland W. Carr. Mueller Speaks for Bill Mueller, first to speak before the committee, told MSC's reason- ing behind the name change bill. He reviewed the history of the Col- lege and previous names which the College had used. "The Michigan Legislature 100 years ago created MSC after over- whelming demand by the people of Michigan," he said. Seven years later, in 1863, the College of East Lansing was enrolled under provisions of the Morrill Act as Michigan's land grant college. Later the College adopted the name Michigan State Agricultural College, and still later adopted the name Michigan Agriculture and Applied Science, he reported. "The framers of the constitution," he asserted, part of the Michigan Constitution designate any p the school." "MSC is now the eighth largest school in the I has a total of nine schools and gives PhD. degrees. I in all but name," Mueller continued. "Eighty per cent of its more than 15,000 students gan homes and represent the common people of Mi added.

Reuther of the CIO United Auto Workers charged yes- terday that the National Assn. of Manufacturers is attempting to "lay down a propaganda tear gas barrage" against the union's guar- anteed annual wage demand. It is doing so, Reuther said, by seeking to raise a "30 million dol- lar war chest" through contribu- tions by employers. In a letter to NAM President Henry G. Riter, the UAW and CIO president called the fund-raising "an attempt to buy public opin- ion without regard todthe public welfare." And he added: Consistent Reord "I should like to remind you that this campaign is consistent with the NAN's undistinguished record of working against the T' best interests of the American people', The UAW is holding its conven- tion here and is putting final touches to the guaranteed wage program it hopes to win in forth- coming negotiations with the auto * industry. Employers Contriute The NAM fund-raising cam- paign is being conducted through the organization's United Business Committee. Employers have been asked to contribute according to the number of employes they have. The NAM has not mentioned the size of the fund it expects to collect. Reuther said the NAM "propa- ganda" campaign was aimed at keeping the public from making up its mind impartially about the "moral and economic merits" of the guaranteed wage. Francis Silent Y'on Reported Salk 'Leaks' Te Poliomyelitis Vaccine Evalu- ation Center will reveal its find- ings on the study of the vaccine against poliomyelitis at a closed scientific meeting April 12 at the University. Dr. Thomas Francis' staff at the center have not released any re- sults concerning the study because the accuracy of the evaluation de- pended upon a completely con- trolled situation. Cannot Answer Inquiries At a press conference last July, Dr. Francis said that although the Center sympathized with the na- tional anxiety which hangs on the announcement of the study, they must excuse themselves from an- swering inquiries concerning their progress. At the same press conference, the question arose whether, in view of the commercial aspects of the development of the vaccine, the public would have some pos- sible reason to suspect bias or prejudice in the study. Expect 'Inside Leaks" University officials, though ex- pecting "dope" stories and "inside leaks" have continually refused to * make any statement in response to Bretton Hits At Mayor's 'Campaign' Anti-Charter Stand Of Brown Criticized Prof. Henry L. Bretton of the political science department yes- terday accused Mayor William Brown of waging "a campaign against the new city charter." Referring to the mayor's "con- tempt for democratic procedures," Prof. Bretton criticized him for not going along with the Repub- lican Party platform. Meanwhile, the telephone cam- paign against the new charter ap- pears to have been directed only against persons connected with the charter. Reports of anti-char- ter calls have been generally lim- ited to that group. City Attorney William Laird an- nounced that a simple majority of the voters is required to pass the new charter. There had been some question raised as to the number required. In a radio broadcast yesterday, SMayor Brown referred to "bally- hoo" over the charter issue. He again failed to take a stand on jthe document as a whole, while criticizing several parts of it. Prof. Bretton, in a statement concerning the mayor, said "the Republican platform was passed and the party went on record as urginga yes vote for the new charter. "If the mayor wishes to run his own campaign, this is his own business, but he should not seek to parade as a leader or 'even a member of the Republican Party.

Sen iate Opens Probe Of Yalta Disclosures Military Pay Increase Bill OK'd by Ike 'WASHING'TON O/P) - President Dwight D. Eisenhower yesterday signed legislation giving a raise in pay to all members of the armed servicesawho havecompleted their first "hitches." The new pay scales go into ef- fect today. More Attractive Career They affect nearly 1,700,000 of- ficers and enlisted men and are designed to make military service more attractive as a career. Not including allowances for food and quarters, the pay in creases average out to 13 per cent for officers with three years serv- ice and 11.7 per cent for enlisted men. Warrant officers and enlisted men must have two years service to qualify. Will Cost $750 Million The average increase over-all, for career service personnel is 12 per cent, and will cost an esti- mated 750 million dollars a year. With some few exceptions, the measure provides increases in base pay only, plus a boost in bonuses for hazardous duty such as is paid to submariners, divers, demolition experts, paratroopers and other specialists.

OPINIONS DIFFER: Stwudent, Faculty-Views On Counseling Polled, (EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the last in a series of four articles reporting the findings in surveys of the literary college counseling facilities by James D.

Counselors considered them- selves better informed than the students believed they were. Students felt that counselors were more interested in their jobs than the counselors, themselves, indicated. Suggest Alternatives On the matter of courses, stu- dents believe that they may take any subject they wish, while coun- selors said that requirements de- termine the students' usual selec- tion of courses, or that the counse- lors suggest alternatives. Students seemed to think coun- selors need specialized training and background for their job. But counselors feel that teaching ex- perience and the right kind of personality are the two basic re- quirements for counseling. Half of the counselors stated they often referred their counsel- ees to other University counseling services, but the students disagree.

It was apparent that senior com- mittee Democrats were unsatisfied with the explanation. Morse said: "I think the com- mittee has a definite responsibili- ty to discuss the entire Yalta re- lease situation. We must see if we can prevent a similar blunder in the future."
