LXVL No. 109- ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, MARCH 13, 1956 EIGHT PA Racial Issue Starts Fight In Congress Court Orders No Delay In Admission WASHINGTON (A)-The racia integration issue set off an ora- torical North-South conflict ir Congress yesterday, with the sub- mission of the new Southern mani- festo. While the debate was going on -the Supreme Court handed dowr another unanimous ordr in th segregation field. Delay Ruled Out The Court ruled out any dela in admitting qualified Negroes t graduate schools of tax-supportec universities. The court in effect put graduate schools-such as those in law and medicine-in a separate categor3 not subject to the transition period permitted in the tribunal's de- cision of last year ordering de- segregation of public schools. The unanimous action yester- day specifically overturned a rul- ing of the Florida Supreme Court denying a Negro, Virgil D. Hawk- ins, admission to the law school of the all-white University of Florida. Most of the Congressional fire- works occurred in the Senate; the House met only briefly. George Submit Manifesto The debate began wfien Sen, Walter George (D-Ga.) formally presented the manifesto signed by 19 Senators and 77 House mem- bers from 11 states. It says the Supreme Court deci- sion of 1954 outlawing segregation in public schools was "a clear abuse of judicial power" and pledges the signers to do every- thing legally possible to overthrow it. Sen. Wayne More (D-Ore.) dared the Southerners to submit a con- stitutional .amendment allowing race segregration practices. Morse also declared, "A historic debate is going to have to take place in the not too distant future because this Congress is going to have to determine whether it is going to back up the Supreme Court." Sen. Strom Thurmond (D-S.C.) who led the states rights move- ment in 1948, told the Senate the South will "fight to the end" to reverse the court ruling. U of Alabama .Punishes Race Riot Leaders TUSCALOSA, Ala. (P-A White Citizens Council leader was expel- led and 24 other students punish- ed less severely yesterday by the University of Alabama for par- ticipation in mob action against Autherine Lucy, the school's first Negro student. The university Board of Trustees announced the expulsion of Leon- ard R. Wilson, 20; Selma, Ala., sophomore plus suspension of four students and lesser and undisclos- ed punishment against 20 others. Had Accused University Wilson also was accused of bringing false charges against uni- versity officials. Miss Lucy was the object of campus rioting from Feb. 3 through Feb. 6. when a mob threatened t kif her. The 26-year-old former school teacher, already a college gradu- ate, was "permanently expelled" Feb. 29 for unproved charges that university authorities conspired in mob action against her. Asks Readmittane She has asked the federal court t- to order her readmittance. Wilson had criticized university authorities for their handling of the Lucy case, and the board took note of this. "This student's (Wilson's) con- duct and charges represent far more than the mere exercise of his right freely to debate the question of segregation,' the trustees said in a statement. Dr. Oliver C. Carmichael, uni-. versity president, had said just after student riots that the issue was not "segregation vs. integra- tion, but law and order vs. an- archy." Carver To Talk On Architecture --Daily-Peter Song MODERN UNDERGRAD LIBRARY TO REPLACE OLD AUTO LAB Library Construction To Start Soon By SUSAN KARTUS A new, modern, well-equipped library will soon be erected on the site of the now-demolished Auto- motive Laboratory. Construction is expected to take 540 days, and will begin shortly. Contracts for building the Under- graduate Library will be awarded this week, University Vice-Presi- dent Wilbur K. Plerpont has an- nounced. The general plan includes an air-conditioned, five-story building with 'modern lighting and many new library facilities. Four main reading areas plus numerous smaller study rooms, equipped largely with individual desks, will be centers of activity. Provides for Blind Such conveniences as typing rooms, rooms where blind students may use dictaphones and a large audio area in which students may listen to recordings of music, for- eign language or poetry in individ- ual cubicles will all be included in the library. A coffee shop and a lounge will provide for relaxation during study breaks. 'The building will be able to seat approximately 2,500 students in the combined study and work areas. Open Shelf Arrangement All books will be arranged in an open shelf collection. "The 375,000 ' volumes will be more easily accessible and attrac- tive and will be catalogued more simply," according to Frederick Wagman, Director of the Univer- sity Library. Most of the books will be redis- tributed from study halls and other campus libraries, thus bringing them all together in one central location. Purpose of the library is to fill needs of all undergraduates. "It will include the majority of books any undergraduate would want," Wagman says. Accomodates Growing Enrollment Adequate library space is to be provided for the University's in- creasing enrollment. According to present plans, the third and fourth floors will be occupied by the en- gineering and transportation li- braries. , This arrangement will only be Strong Vote Of Confidence Given Mollet PARIS (OP)-On four overwhelm- ing confidence votes, the National 4 Assembly last night gave Premier* Guy Mollet emergency powers, to crush the nationalist revolt in Al- geria. The assemblymen voted 455-76 in backing the bill as a whole, after first approving its three main sec- tions - economic, administrative. and military. Poujadists Vote Against Only the followers of Pierre Pou- jade, the antitax leader, voted against Mollet as a group. Nearly all independent Republicans of the right wing voted for the govern- ment. Even the Communists voted for the government headed by Social- ist Mollet, and thereby caught more assemblymen by surprise. Jacques Duclos, the Communist leader, proclaimed the party line. "Communist and Socialist work- ers must strive together in com- mon action," he declared. Lacoste Given Power The bill gives Mollet and his minister for Algerian affairs, Ron- ert Lacoste, wide power to shake up the Algerian administration, and the right to break up vast landed estates for the benefit of Moslem tenant farmers or farm- hands. Lacoste is expected to proclaim a state of siege over much of the Algerian countryside now infested with rebels. He is also planning centers of protection for the isolat- ed European farmers in the inter-1 ior. The bill also gives Lecoste the right to censor the Algerian pressI and radio stations. - temporary, since when the College of Engineering moves to North Campus, the same space will be used for increased library needs of undergraduates on the main cam- pus. Illustrations, presently displayed for fine arts students in Alumni Memorial Hall, will be given ex- hibit space on the top floor of the new library. The structure, expected to be complete in September, 1957, will cost $3,680,000 and will contain approximately 136,000 square feet of floor space. - It will be constructed by Albert Kahn Associated Architects and Engineers. The same firm has built numerous other University build- ings such as the General Library, Hill Auditorium, Natural Science Bldg. and University Hospital. Rep. Mea der To Take Seat On Committee From Washington comes word of Representative George"Meader. Ann Arbor's Second District Con-. gressman Meader .was recently seated on the Information Sub- committee of the House Govern- ment Operations Committee. The subcommittee opened hearings this week. Executive branch security is be- ing scrutinized as to the access the press, general public and Con- gress have to scientific informa- tion. Foremost scientists testified that this country's scientific progress is being impeded by unnecessarily re- strictive security procedures. Many scientists claimed that United States security, defined as being ahead of potential enemies, could be promoted by'a free flow of information among scientists. Rep. Meader defines the Com- mittee's goal as an attempt to "improve security classification systems and insure that all infor- mation which need not be closely guarded be available to the scien- tific fraternity." U.S. Asked To Help In Island Issue Greek Premier Asks 'Decisive Intervention' ATHENS, Greece (P)-Greece yesterday asked the United States to intervene in the bitter dispute over Cyprus. Foreign Minister Spyros Theoto- kis announced the government i making vigorous representations to Washington over recent develop- ments on the British eastern Med- iterranean island colony. In Washington, a State Depart- ment spokesman said the United States expects to make "certain recommendations' on the issue after "carefully studying all as- pects." Offers To Mediate At the United Nations, Italian Foreign Minister Gaetano Martino told newsmen Italy would be glad to mediate between Greece and Britain in the dispute. Theotokis announced his govern- ment's move shortly after Premier Constantine Karamanlis called for decisive United States interven- tion. The Premier said, "The West is handling the Cyprus issue as if it is buttering Russia's toast." Moscow radio promptly rein- forced the Premier's words. In a broadcast heard in Western Eu- rope, the radio claimed the Cyprus dispute is "seriously weakening," the North Atlantic Treaty Organ- ization.- Supports Self-Determination Greece has been supporting a violent campaign waged by Greek- origin Cypriots for the right of self-determination that would lead to eventual union with Greece. Britain promised the Cypriots a large measure of self rule but re- fused to give up the strategic is- land completely. The last British bastion in the Middle East, Cyprus is the headquarters of Britain's air and ground forces in that area. Tension over the issue was heightened last week by Britain's deportation of Archbishop Maka- rios, leader of the island's union- with-Greece movement. Ambassador Recalled Greece immediately recalled its ambassador from London and pro- tested to the United Nations over the archbishop's ouster. Scattered anti-British riots were reported in various parts of Athens last night, despite a government ban on mass meetings., Police said at least 77 persons were injured. Among them were 22 policemen. Rebellious Cyprus was paralyzed by a spontaneous general strike yesterday. With the exception of a few Turkish-owned shops, virtually all civilian activities in this British island colony were shut down. Heavy patrols of British troops quickly put down all attempts at demonstrations in most parts of the island. Arab Chiefs Set Against Zion Forces CAIRO, Egypt (P-The Arab world's Big Three wound up their summit conference yesterday with a declaration that they have ham- mered out a unified plan against "dangers of Zionist aggression" and to preserve neutrality in the cold war. Premier Abdel Gamal Nasser of Egypt, King Saud of Saudi Ara- bia, and President Shukri Kuwatly of Syria signed a four-page com- munique which summed up the re- sults of their 10 secret meetings here in the last six days. It contained no hin of what details they had agreed on. Charges Exchanged The signing took place in a room packed with newsmen and photog- raphers as Israel and the Arabs exchanged charges that troop con- centrations were being built up on each side of the border. Fresh shooting incidents took place. A hint was seen that the thrge Arab chiefs had decided virtually to scrap the Arab League dnd to act independently of that nine- nation body in the future. The communique said they had an all-inclusive plan for *;oordin- ating their policies in political, military, economic and cultural matters to achieve "mobilization of all forces and their direction toward the realization of the gen- eral good of the Arab Nation. 4 League Unity Shattered The unityof the Arab League has been shattered by Iraq's join- ing the Baghdad Pact with Brit-, ain, Iran, Turkey and Pakistan, an alliance concerned primarily3 with defense against the Commun- ist bloc.- Egypt, Syria and Saudi Arabia; so far have failed to lure Jordan# and Lebanon into their separate chain of military treaties directed primarily against Israel.; Yemen and the fledglingnations of Libya and Sudan are otherx members of the League, whose dis-t unity has been advertised by the Big Three meeting outside its aus- pices. IFC-IHC Study Grou Suggests Continuing Present Rushing Setu] 4proposal, already approved by the Senate and pending in the House. Generally, the bill provides for stepped-up training of psychiat- rists and other professional spec- ialists in an effort to produce greater emphasis in State hospitals on treatment and cure of the mentally ill, rather than custodial care. It has been called the "brains, not bricks' approach to the mental health problem. Setup Not Right "If I understand correctly that this is set up under Regents of the University (of Michigan), "Men- ninger said in the letter to Gov. Williams, "I just want to be pre- sumptuous enough to indicate that it is the wrong way to do it." This feature of the pending Leg- islation drew opposition from the State Mental Health Commission which has supervision over the hospital system, and from minor- ity Democrats in the Senate. Menninger said that putting himself in the place of a person connected with Wayne University, "I would resent it very niuch to feel that we vere very much a minority participant." Distinguished Italian Artists To Play in Hill, Fourteen of Italy's most distin- guished virtuosi-instrumentalists, the Virtuosi Di Roma will present the ninth concert in the Choral Union Series at 8:30 p.m. today in Hill Auditorium. The entire program will be dedi- cated to the music of Antonio Vi- valdi, 1678-1741. The Virtuosi is returning to the United States for their fourth transcontinental tour, after a two- year absence. .During the first half of the program the group will play "Con- certo in C minor for Strings," "Concerto in D minor for Oboe and Strings" and "Concerto in B- flat for Violin, Cello and Strings." After intermission they will pre- sent "Concerto in E major," (The Spring) "Concerto in B minor," (The Summer) "Concerto in F major," (The Autumn)and "Con- certo in F minor," (The Winter). Tickets may be obtained at the offices of the University Musical Society in Burton Tower. SAYS REGENTS 'WRONG' Doctor Opposes State Mental Health Pl' an LANSING (P)-A nationally prominent figure in the mental health field was disclosed by Gov. G. Mennen Williams yesterday to oppose salient features of a controversial, Republican-sponsored mental health plan for Michigan. The position of Dr. William C. Menninger was made public in a special message to the Legislature to which the Democratic gover- nor appended a letter from Menninger. Drafted 'Kansas Program' Menninger was described by Gov. Williams as a principal archi- tect of the so-called Kansas Program which inspired the Republican Kefauver Set For Big Test MANCHESTER, N.H. (R)-Sen. Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.) matches his personal popularity against the vote-drawing power of most of New Hampshire's leading Demo- crats today in the nation's first presidential primary of the year. The state's big Democratic po- litical guns are lined up almost solidly for Kefauver's principal op- penent, Adlai Stevenson. But the p.-vy's 1952 standard bearer has carefully avoided a head-on clash by refusing to take any personal part in the contest. Although the test of strength between the two leading rivals for the Democratic presidential nomi- nation will thus be indirect, the result is almost certain to have an important psychological impact on preconvention bpinion. Just as Kefauver is unopposed in the Democratic preference sec- tion of the ballot, President Dwight D. Eisehlhower is unopposed on the Republican side, where he defeated the late Sen. Robert Taft (R-Ohio) four years ago. VetoesT'urn To Deferred Rush, Pledge Suggests Increased Counseling Facilities By DICK SNYDER Deferred rushing or pledging for the fraternity system received a "thumbs-down" yesterday in re- commendations announced by the Interfraternity-Inter House Coun- cil rushing study committee. The recommendations, submitted to Student Government Councl members as a conclusion to a four- month study by IFC-IHC, called for conditional continuation of the present system of first and second semester rushing. The eight member study group, composed of an equal number of representatives from IFC and IHC, unanimously endorsed the three- page list of recommendations. Call For More Counseling Main condition under which the present setup is expected to be continued is, increased counseling facilities, both on the fraternity and the residence hall level. The recommendation report also suggests that SGC reconsider the whole rushing system during the fall semester, of the 1958-59 aca- demic year. "At that 'time, in terms of the adequacy or inadequacy of the im- plementation of these recommen- dations as they have improved the then-existing rushing procedurej report "we recommend that strong consideration again be given to the existing system, deferred pledging and deferred rushing (not to the exclusion of other alternatives). Should Gather Data Our counseling recommendation Is that during this two-year period, facts and pertinent data be ac- cumulated concerning the area of fraternity, rushing." Conditions recommended includ ,ed increased rushing counselor fa- cilities, more printed material and information to rushees-on individ- ual houses, encuragement of per- sons counseling freshmen to advise confused individuals to defer their decisions on rushing until open rushing or the second-semester and increased development of residence hall house orientation programs. Deficiencies Listed The list of recommendations was prefaced by an admission of defi- ciencies which included statements that "the question of whether to rush and whether or where to pledge is confusing to manyfresh- men" and that "the freshman is lacking information with regard to particular fraternity houses and the fraternity system as a whole." Implementation of the recomin niendations, the report said, should be carried out by IFC and IHC in cooperation with the administra- tion. Also suggested were periodic re-- ports to SGC on progress of im- plementation of the recommenda- tions. At its Oct. 19 meeting, SGC delegated studies of rushing pro- cedures to two groups-one staffed with Panhel-Assembly representa- Lives, the other composed of IFCe- IHC personnel.!! The Panhel-Assembly committee: last week issued a majority-minor- ity report favoring spring rushing for the sorority system. Ford Admits Funds For Ike WASHINGTON (M)-Henry Ford II acknowledged at a Senate in- quiry yesterday that he okayed the solicitation of Ford dealers for Eisenhower campaign funds in 1952. But he said "I don't like pres- sure of any kind on any matter," and that as far as he knew there were no "reprisals or recrimina- tions" against dealers who refused to contribute. Long-Awaited Wedding Bells To RingFor U.S.'s Margaret, NEW YORK (M--Displaying proudly a modest diamond solitaire, Margaret Truman said yesterday that she and newspaperman Clifton Daniel will be married some time in April. Two hours after former President Harry S. Truman had announced his only child's engagement, Margaret and her fiance met the press here in a public room of the Hotel Carlyle, where she lives. The announcement, capping years of speculation over the romantic prospects of Miss Truman, came following a weekend visit by the couple to Daniel's North Carolina home, and noncommittal CITY ADMINISTRATOI return to New York. CITYAD__NSTRAT_ Truman Calls Press 1 -a T 5 World News Roundup F: I E E a- By The Associated Press $100,000 Price Support Loan Limit Set, WASHINGTON-The Senate amended its election-year farm bill last night to put a $100,000 limit on the annual price support loans the government could make to any individual farm or farmer. The vote was 78-11. - There is no limit on price support loans in the present law, and these have exceeded one million dollars to single units in recent years. Proponents of the amendment said it was aimed at huge corpora- tion-type wheat, cotton and corn farms, some of which they said have, been collecting immense government checks. * * * * AF Plane Crashes Near Newfoundland ST. JOHN'S, Nfld.-A United States Air Force utility plane en route from Amarillo, Texas, to the Azores crashed and exploded yester- day in the storm-tossed offshore waters south of Newfoundland. All six men aboard were killed. All parrying of questions ended, however, after ex-President Tru- man and his wife, Bess, made their statement at a hurriedly summoned press conference in Missouri. Seated beside her fiance in her hotel apartment here, and -smiling- ly exhibiting an engagement ring, Miss Truman said her parents were "delighted" by the engage- ment. Plan Small Wedding She said that the wedding would be a "small one just for the fam- ilies" and would take place in Trinity Episcopal Church, Inde- pendence, where she once sang as a choir girl. The couple will live in New York, she said, but her own career plans beyond some present radio and Mayor Brown W etcomes Larcom Guy C. Larcom, Jr..
