Union Workers Reject
Ford Stock Sale Offer
DETROIT (A)-The Ford Motor Co. yesterday offered its 140,000
union employes an opportunity to buy company stock controlled by
the Ford family for half a century.
But the CIO United Auto Workers, demanding a guaranteed
annual wage, promptly rejected the offer.
The union called the Ford counterproposal "unfair, unjust and
unacceptable" and said it fails to provide workers protection against
the insecurity of unemployment. A

Disci1linar
Actions Told
Joint Judiciar y Council yester-
day issued a report on discipli-
nary actions taken in cases in-
volving 15 students.
Cases heard concerned viola-
tions of drinking laws, driving reg-
ulations and student conduct.
Action taken by Joint Judic was
upheld by the Sub-committee on
Discipline in all instances.
Heaviest fines were levied for
violations of the University's re-
stricted parking area regulations.
One student, involved in a driv-
ing violation for the fifth time,
received a $45 penalty and was
severely warned that his Univer-
sity standing would be "imperiled"
in event of further miscondudt.
Another student was fined $65,
with a suspension of $40, in con-
nection with the issuance of 13

parking tickets against him, eight
of them by city police.
Three violators of University
driving rules were fined, one for
$25 with $10 suspended, the other
two for $20.
Cases involved dIriving with no
permits and social use of permit.
Two cases were second violations.
A $30 fine was issued to a stu-
dent accused of giving a false
name to police and failure to ap-
pear in court. No court action
was taken.
Five students were fined for
violation .of state laws and city
ordinances relating to the pur-
chase, sale and use of intoxicants.
Strongest action taken in this
category was a $30 fine, with $15
suspended in view of a court fine
and costs of $31.85 and an over-
night jail sentence.
For transportation of intoxi-
cants in a vehicle, his third viola-
tion, another student was penal-
ized $30 following $19.30 in court
costs.n e was also placed on pro-

tempt to discuss the status of the
Communist countries in Eastern
Europe.
Suggest Vienna
Moscow suggested Vienna as the
most convenient place, with the
time to be negotiated by the four
powers. French Foreign Minister
Antoine Pinay has mentioned
July 18-21. The Western powers
take the stand that Vienna is un-
satisfactory so long as occupation
troops remain in Austria, and
want the meeting held in Switzer-
land or Sweden.,
The Soviet note apparently en-
visioned a conference of Presi-
dent Dwight D. Eisenhower, Pre-
mier Nikolai Bulganin and the
British and French premiers on
broad generalities. It said the
meeting should aim at "the less-
ening of international tension and
the strengthening of confidence
among nations."
Desire to Pressure
But, the Russians added, de-
clarations by United States offi-
cials reflect "a desire to exert
inadmissible pressure on the con-
ference" and to discredit the idea
of a conference in advaice. The
note asserted:'
"The said officials went so far
as to mention the necessity of in-
terference in the internal affairs
of other states, making attacks
on the People's Democracies East
European Communist states which
are defending the freedom of their
people.
"Increase Tension"
"It is quite clear that such at-
tempts at interference, which are
incompatible with the United Na-
tions charter, should be rejected
as exposing the aggressive plans of
certain circles aiming at the fur-
ther intensification of the arms
race and increasing international
tension."
In his May 18 television report
Secretary of State John Foster
Dulles said the conference might
set up some new processes toward
a solution of problems such as
reunification of Germany, limita-
tion ofharmaments, atomic weap-
ons, "the problem of the satellite
countries, the problem created by
the international c o m m u n is m
~which is such a pest all around:t

Bug Eater
"You've heard of butterflies
in the stomachy" William Lee
Todd asked proudly at the
South Quad dinner table last
night; "Well I've got grass-
hoppers."
Todd explains he discovered
the Japanese delicacies in a
local market. "They had fried
cactus worms too, but they're
squishy. Grasshoppers are
crunchy."
Todd has enthusiasm for the
bugs but qualifies it: "They're
not as good as fresh salted
grasshoppers, of course."
Samplers were even more re-
strained. "Trouble is," one ob-
served, "they break up inside
your mouth and all you taste is
the wings."
Quad dieticians s il e n t ly
watched all, carefully taking
notes.

graphy" Monday through Friday.
Valerie Bettis and Lydia St. Clair

artist who decides to publish her
meinoires.
Featured roles will be depicted
by Larry Gates, Jamie Smith. Olga
Fabian, Charles Cooper, Judith
Hunter and Charles Andre. Gates

this week's play "The Rainmaker."

Laurents Drama
"The Time of the Cuckoo" refers
to the habits of that strange bird
who has unusual migratory traits,
arriving in Italy only once a year.
The story of the Arthur Laurents
play deals with an American school
teacher, a tourist in Italy.
The comedy-drama was a hit on
t the New York stage during the
1952-53 season. Recreating her

Ford also offered a ;number of
other benefits, all tied to union
acceptance of another five-year
contract.
Said the union:
"It is a phony plan which by the
Ford Motor Co.'s own admission
is a resurrection of an inadequate
and antiquated plan which Gener-
al Motors had in effect in 1939 and
had to scrap' because it was un-
workable and impracticable."
The union's rejection came only
two hours after Ford placed the
counterproposal on the contract
bargaining table. The UAW's bit-
ter response marked the first pub-
lic dispute since the auto indus-
try's significant labor negotiations
began last month.
John S. Bugas, Ford vice presi-
dent, called the offer "undoubtedly
as challenging and comprehensive
a single package offer as any ever
made in our industry." The "pack-
age" included a number of other
benefits, and was conditional on
union acceptance of a five-year
contract.

LONDON (I1)-Prime Minister Anthony Eden and the Conserva-
tive party scored a smashing victory in yesterday's election.
They won a new five-year term with an indicated House of Com-
mons majority of 50 or more seats, against the scant 17-seat margin
they had in the last Parliament.
Morgan Phillips, secretary of the opposition Labor party, con-
ceded the party's defeat at 3:15 this morning.
The voters dealt a severe blow to Clement Attlee's Labor forces,
who won the popular vote in the 1951 election but lost out in the
tabulation of House of Commons "
seats. This time the Conservatives
ran ahead in popular vote, as well.
Vote of Confidence
The result is a vote of confi-
dence for Eden on the eve of four-
power talks, where he will repre-
sent Britain.
The electors plumped for free jj

jected the Labor party call for
