Cease Fire Talks
Rejected byChou
TOKYO Wednesday (M)-Premier Chou En-lai of Red China has
ruled out a Formosan cease-fire negotiations with the United States
and has implied he will talk only about withdrawing United States
forces guarding Formosa.
"There is no war between China and the United States and so the
question of the so-called cease-fire does not arise," he told the
Standing Committee of the National People's Congress in Peiping last
Friday. The speech was broadcast only yesterday by Peiping radio. I
On Formosa, a Nationalist spokesman declared Chou's aim was
to drive the United States from the Western Pacific.
Chou was making his report to the committee on the Asian-Afri-

ments today at its 7:15 p.m. meet-
ing in the Union.
Appointments to the Housing
Study Committee and to the Joint

+ tion of University policy in this

nesia. It was at Bandung that
Chou on April 23 first offered to
pegotiate with the United States to
"relax tension" in the area of For-
mosa.
Four d a y s later, President
Dwight D. Eisenhower told a news
conference in Washington the
United States would be glad to
meet with the Chinese Commu-
nists about a cease-fire.
Red China Won't Sit In
Chou restated in Peiping the
Chinese Communist claim to Fo-
mosa and said that its "liberation"
was a "domestic affair."
Chou declared that Red China
never would sit down at any in-
ternational conference with Chi-
ang's Nationalists.
The United States has an-
nounced it never would discuss
with Red China matters affecting
Nationalist interests directly un-
less the Nationalists were present.
In Washington, officials said
they saw nothing new in Chou's
latest statement.
In Taipei, i spokesman for the
Nationalist government's Informa-
tion Bureau said that the Chinese
Communists want a "total Amer-
ican surrender in the Formosa
area as the price for peace."
A Nationalist Foreign Office
spokesman predicted the Chinese
Reds would set a deadline for the
withdrawal of U.S. forces and
threaten large-scale action if it is
not complied with. The United
States guardsFormosa from Red
invasion under a mutual security
treaty.

DETROIT (A)-Failure of a
single heart they shared caus-
ed the death of Siamese twin
girls, 332 hours after their
birth.
The single,' unusual heart
and its failure last night were
disclosed by an autopsy today.
Doctors originally thought both
had a heart.
Dr. Lawrence W. Gardner,
laboratory director at Mt. Car-
mel Mercy Hospital, said the1
twins shared a triocular or
primitive heart with two upper,
auricles (upper chambers) but
only one ventricle (lower cham-
ber). Normal hearts have two,
chambers up and two down.
BEsides the heart, physicians
also found other shared or1
joined organs that would have
prevented the girls ever being
separated by surgery.
Farmers
Fight Frost
DETROIT (W)-Grim faced
farmers throughout Michigan
worked feverishly against a
killing frost predicted for last
night that threatened fruit
berry crops with thousands of
dollars damage.
Smudge pots were built in or-
chards and straw was used to
cover plants as protection from
temperatures expected to dip
to the low 30s.

Fox Leads Attack
With Four Hits
Special to The Daily
DETROIT-Five pitchers shared
the hurling chores yesterday, to
lead Michigan to a 9-0 win over
the University of Detroit.
Don Poloskey, Bill Thurston,
Ralph Fagge, Dick Peterjohn, and
Jim Clark faced the Titans in that
order, giving up but three hits,
while striking out nine men
Polosky started I-or the Wol-
verines, and worked just three
innings, giving up no hits. Coach
Ray Fisher, anxious to give as
many of his mound staff as pos-
sible a chance to work, put in
Thurston for the next trio, and
then followed with Fagge, Peter-
john, and Clark, for one inning
each. Thurston gave up all of De-
troit's hits.
Fox Stars
For Michigan, leading the bat-
ters was center fielder Bruce Fox.
Fox garnered four hits in five
times at bat, including a bases
loaded triple in the fifth inning.
His hit scored Frank Ronan and

Supported
In Congress
Hobby's Vaccine
Handling Blasted
WASHINGTON (P)-The Eisen-
hower administration's new polio
vaccination program gained quick
bipartisan support in Congress
yesterday.
But Senator Wayne Morse (D-
Ore.) blasted Secretary of Wel-'
fare Oveta Hobby's handling of
Salk vaccine and declared she
ought to be fired for "gross incom-
petency."
Senator H. Alexander Smith (R-
NJ) introduced a bill carrying out
a proposal made by Mrs. Hobby
and endorsed by President Dwight
D. Eisenhower that the federal
government put up 28 million dol-
lars to make sure no child goes
without vaccine for lack of money.
Smith Sponsors Appropriation
Chairman Lister Hill (D-Ala) of
the Senate Labor Committee an-
nounced he would sponsor the ap-
propriation, too, and said there is
"absolutely no question" Congress
will quickly approve it. Smith is
the committee's ranking Republi-
can.
In the House, Chairman J. P.s
Priest (D-Tenn) of the Commerce
Committee put his name to a
similar bill. The 28 million dollars
would go to the states to provide
free vaccination of lower income
persons 1 to 19 years of age.
Morse took the Senate floor and
said Mrs. Hobby, who has over-all
charge of federal health programs,
"has been guilty of bad admini-
stration that comes close to im-
Imorality" in handling the distri-
bution and safety testing of Salk
vaccine.
Defends Public Health Service
Mrs. Hobby defended the Public
Health Service's action in testi-
mony Monday before the Senate
Labor Committee. Mrs. Hobby op-
posed moves by many Democrats,

MOSCOW - The United States
yesterday formally invited a dele-
gation of Soviet farm experts to
America this summer to learn how
Iowa farmers raise corn and hogs.
There is no doubt the Russians will
accept.
United States Charge d'Affaires
Walter Walmsley delivered a note
to the Foreign Ministry suggesting
that about 10 Soviet farmers reach
Iowa July 10 for a month's stay.
The note, also released in Wash-
ington, said the United States De
partment of Agriculture would
have over-all responsibility for the
Russians, Iowa State College would
arrange their program, and the
University of Minnesota would
take charge when they visit other
areas, unspecified.
WASHINGTON - The prospect
that any atomic war will be fought
partly in the dark depths of the
oceans was underlined yesterday,
with word that the Navy has suc-
cessfully tested a small nuclear de-
vice somewhere in the Pacific.
The underwater test presumably'
occurred some hundreds of miles
off the West Coast of the United
States. Officials have indicated it
was part of a drive to perfect
methods of "killing" submarines
with the power of the atom.-
The advent of a new dimensionf

Such attempts were anticipated
when the cooperative buying plan
was set-up.
Speaking at the last Frater-
nity President's Assembly of the
year, Knutson said a fraternity
had been approached recently by
a wholesaler offering to undercut
FBA prices.
FBA Bid Rejected
The wholesaler, who claimed he
could beat FBA prices by 25 cents
'a case, had previously submitted
a bid for FBA's contract. His bid
was rejected because his prices
were too high, Knutson said.
Knutson pointed out that whole-
salers might lower their prices
temporarily to undermine confi-
dence in cooperative buying.
"If anyone, wholesaler or re-
tailer, comes around offering to
undersell FBA," Knutson told the
presidents, "send him to the FBA
Board of Directors.
If he is reputable and his prices
are legitimate he will be willing to
offer them to everyone through
FBA."
Fraternities Sign Contracts
Fraternities are signing con-
tracts this week to become per-
manent members of the plan, mod-
eled after a similar program at
Ohio State University.
