UN Group To Discuss Palestine Soviet Approval Of U.S. Plan Seen UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (p)- The Security Council meets Mon- day on the Palestine crisis with Russia expected, at least tentative- ly, to approve a new American- sponsored plan. It would send Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold on a Middle East peace mission, possibly on April 2. Soviets Silent The Soviet dielegation remained officially silent on the stand it will take in the Council but Soviet sources said unoficially they saw nothing wrong with the idea at the moment. The delegation is awaiting in- structions from Moscow. Diplomatic moves relating to the Middle East'also were reported in Western capitals. In Washington, it was disclosed French Foreign Minister Christian Pineau has invited Secretary of State John Foster Dulles and British Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd to meet him within a few weeks for a discussion of the Mid- dle East situation. There was no immediate Americanreaction. Lodge Offers Plan United States Chief Delegate Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., put up the Palestine resolutionafter long talks with Britain and France. It was worded carefully in an effort to obtain Russian agreement so the Council action could be unani- mous. The resolution asks Hammarsk- jold to undertake "as a matter of urgent concern" a survey of en- forcement and compliance with the Israeli-Arab armistice agreements and with Council resolutions call- ing for maintenance of peace. It suggests Hammarskjold ar- range measures to reduce tension -such as withdrawal of forces from the armistice lines, full free- dom of movement for United Na- tions observers and establishment of local arrangements to prevent incidents and detect violations of the armistice agreements. U.S. Proposes Disarmament Plan To Reds' LONDON (-The United States proposed to Russia yesterday that they bothpare down their armed forces to "2 million men. Harold E. Stassen laid the plan before the United Nations dis- armament subcommittee. He em- phasized that there was one con- dition: East-West agreement on' an effective inspection system. Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko, Russia's delegate, made no comment immediately.1 The land, sea and air forces oft the United States now total about1 2,900,000. The West has figured Russia's armed strength at four million men.i It was the second measure putt forward by the United States in two days in the world disarma-E ment talks.t Wednesday Stassen, Presidenti Dwight D. Eisenhower's personal adviser on disarmament, proposedi that upward of 60,000 square miles of United States and Soviet ter- ritory be opened to arms inspec- tion by the five subcommittee1 members. for its judgment was "not neces-C sarily invalid." Set up to review Academic Free- dom and Tenure in the Quest for National Security, the committee recommended AAUP censure for five administrations. Recommended for Censure The five are: University of Cali- fornia, Ohio State University, Rutgers, Temple University and Jefferson Medical College. The censure proposals will be By LEE MARKS 0 Dismissal of two professors and censure of a third by the Uni- versity Administration in May, 1954, drew criticism yesterday from a special committee of the American Association of University Pro- fessors. The Committee Report, however, credited the administration with according due process in its proceedings and claimed the basis. REVIEWS 1954 CONTROVERSY: AAUP Group Criticizes Dismissals placed before the annual meeting of the AAUP on April 6 and are not effective until approved by the group. The Committee highly com- mended, for their support of fac- ulty members when they were under accusation, six other schools.. Commended by Committee The schools recommended for commendation are: University of Chicago, Cornell, Harvard, John Hopkins University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Sarah Lawrence. The University was among ten schools whose actions were re- viewed by the Committee but for whom no recommendations were made. Recommendations were directed against "administrations" rather than against the institutions them- selves. Fifth Amendment Cases The cases reviewed hinged pri- marily on invocation of the fifth amendment by faculty mem- bers questioned by congressional committees and on refusal to sign loyalty oaths. The Committee was appointed by the AAUP last fall. Vice-President and Dean, of Faculties Marvin L. Niehuss said the University disagreed with the report on several points but "their summary of our proceedings is entirely accurate." There was no reaction or com- ment from local members of the AAUP. Prof. Helen Peak of the psy- chology department, chairman of the local branch, said the report would be reviewed at an executive meeting Saturday. Refused To Testify On May 10, 1954 H. Chandler Davis of the mathematics depart- ment, Prof. Mark Nickerson of the pharmacology department and Prof. Clement Market of the zool- ogy department refused to testify Tunisian Nationalists Riot before the Clardy Un-American subcommittee. Following suspension and hear- ings Davis and Nickerson were dis- missed. Prof. Markert was cen- sured but retained. Most serious criticism of the University by the Committee re- sulted from failure to grant Davis and Nickerson severance pay and formal censure of Markert. The report held that "invoca- tion of the Fifth Amendment by a faculty member . . . cannot be in itself a sufficient ground for removing him." It also held that refusal to sign loyalty oaths was not sufficient grounds for dismissal and refer- red to loyalty oath laws as "per- nicious." or Quick Idependence Code Could Cut Supply OfTeachers (EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the third in a series of five articles on the proposed revision of the teacher's certification code, up for hearings before the State Board of Education.) By ADELAIDE WILEY Observers claim the proposed teacher's certification code, if passed, will cause a worse shortage of teachers than now exists., No other state certification code requires 30 hours of professional education. The highest to date is 24 hours in 6 states-the lowest is 12 in 4 states. Overall average in the country is 18 hours, according to statistics in the Manual on Certification Requirements. With this in mind, and consider- ing that 1,900 teachers were drawn from outlying states last year, some are asking if Michigan will not jeopardize its teacher supply by upping education requirements. Population Increasing Michigan's populationis increas- ing steadily. More and more teach- ers will be needed, and the state cannot afford to lose the influx of out-of-state teachers, few of whom would be able to meet the proposed requirements. Cut 14 Hours From the Music school's side of the controversy, Prof. Britton said the most optimistic view he could take of the proposed code is that it might cut out only 14 hours of applied music-actual instruction in singing and performing-from the existing 58 hours. Speaking out against the "gen- eral education" requirements in the new code, Prof. Britton said it would "turn the high school into a grade school, and the college into a high school." "An elementary teacher is sup- posed to know about a variety of subjects: arithmetic, history, pen- manship. But to project this kind See PROF., Page 6 MINNESOTA PRIMARY: Professors View Upset As 3low to Stevenson By DAVE TARR Senator Estes Kefauver's (D-Tenn) surprising upset victory over Adlai Stevenson in the Minnesota presidential primary has clouded the Democratic political picture. Two University Political Science professors said yesterday the result of the vote has "been a blow" to Stevenson's chances for nomination on the Democratic ticket. Prof. "Samuel J. Eldersveld said, however, the "blow was not a other boycott defendants pending King's appeal. The 90 Negroes were indicted by a grand jury Feb. 21. Bayne Says Law, Reli ion Vital to Culture The law is the most important single factor, except religion it- self, in shaping our culture Rev. David C. Bayne, said last night in a talk to the Michigan Crib Pre- Law society. As an example of this potent influence of the law and the courts Father Bayne pointed out that nine men on the Supreme Court "are turning the South upside down right now" in regard to the problem of segregation. The Jesuit Priest and Dean of the University of Detroit Law School noted that, just as the law has an influence on society, the law school shapes the law. You are moulded into the pat- tern your professor wishes except for the fact that decisions are left up to you he said. Today, the world at large is cut down the middle with the powers of evil on the one hand versus jeudo-christian culture on the other he said. "We must op- pose the neat little isms, such as pragmatism, of the other culture," he said. hRev. Fr. Bayne cited the issue of artificial insemination as one such moral issue that will be in- fluenced by the courts in the fut- ure. It is a question on the thres- hold and there is a big debate on it in most states including Michi- gan he said. "As pre-legal-students you must line up on one side or the other," he said.

It was an "error in judge- ment" that led a Union attend- ant to turn off the television set Just before the academy awards were announced yesterday. Union policy is to close the building at midnight except on weekends. "The fellow Just didn't realize the awards only happen once a year," he added. Econ Professor To Talk in Toledo .

"The vote was a set back for Stevenson and he will need to improve his position to obtain the nomination," was the opinion ex- pressed by Prof. John P. White of the Political Science Depart- ment. White observed that should Stevenson continue to give a poor showing in the primaries the Dem- ocratic leaders mught start look- ing beyond Kefauver for a candi- date, possible to Sen. Stuart Sym- ington of Missouri or Michigan's Governor G. Mennen Williams. Several reasons for the surpris- ing results were advanced. Prof. Eldersveld said the farm prob- lems, with Kefauver promising 100 per cent of parity to Stevenson's 90 per cent, the more personal campaign conducted by Kefauver and the weak vote-getting middle of the road position of Stevenson were probably all factors in result. He added, "The political mach- ine of Sen. Humphrey just couldn't deliever in this case." Humphrey had ordered the mach- ine into all-out action for Stev- enson. Three main answers to the ques- tion "why did Kefauver win?" were given by Prof. White. First- "he .had considerable appeal for the farm vote," second "the ek- tremely vigorous campaigning of Kefauver," and third "the nature of the Minnesota primary system." iat Kefauver did well in many of National Roundup By The Associated Press WASHINGTON -- President Dwight D. Eisenhower will hold a hush-hush White House confer- ence today with a group to top defense officials, the chief of the Central Intelligence Agency and the under-secretary of state. Press secretary James C. Hagerty announced plans for the session Thursday. He declined to say why the meeting is being held. * * * WASHINGTON -- Democratic leaders in Congress decided yester- day to go all out for higher price supports in the farm bill despite hints of a presidential veto. They appeared to be encouraged by the big Democratic vote piled up in Tuesday's presidential pri- mary vote in Minnesota. The farm issue is red hot there, though there is an argument between Republi- cans and Democrats as to how much the issue influenced the vot- ing. After a talk with House 'Speaker Sam Rayburn (D-Tex.), Senate Majority Leader Lyndon Johnson of Texas announced the Democrats will insist on boosting the price level at which the government now supports basic crops. * * * WASHINGTON -- Higher rail- road passenger fares yesterday appeared likely for the country generally. A five per cent advance was in early prospect for the entire West and the Eastern states north of the Ohio and Potomac river. The Eastern and Western rail- roads notified the Interstate Com- merce Commission they propose to hike their basic passenger rates effective May 1, employing a short- cup public notice procedure. There was no word from the Southern carriers. WASHINGTON --Sen. William Jenner (R-Ind.) denied yesterday that he has tentatively agreed to let Atty. Gen. Herbert Brownell pick a new judge for the United States Court of Appeals at Chicago. Sen. Jenner was asked to com- ment on a published report that he and Sen. Homer Capehart (R-Ind.) would let Brownell make the selec- tion from a list of eight candidates PROF. CHARLES HYNEMAN Bureaucracy Supervision Of Bureaus Sugges ted A case for stnong legislative con- trol of governmental bureaus was given to the Political Science Roundtable last night. Prof. Charles S.Hyneman, of the political science department at Northwestern University, defend- ed the views presented in his book "Bureaucracy in a Democracy" published six years ago. He said, "Only congress (law- making authority) can determine what devices should be used to enact such control. Congress must be its own judge on the extent of theuse of such devices." Importance of building up in administrative personnel a state of mind in regard to what the population wants was stressed by Prof. Hyneman. In laying out a yardstick to test the legislative character qf the bodies that would control bureaucracy, Prof. Hyneman said there must be an "awareness and attentiveness" toward the inter- ests of a wide segment of the pop- ulation. However, I just don't know how to set up a scale to determine the range of this 'awareness and at- tentiveness.' " The probability of people ex- isting with these qualities was minimized by the Professor. "Men get into assemblies and then de- velop this awareness,"t he said, "but, I can not say what kind of an elective system would be re- quired to find those with the po- French Stop Rebels After Rapid Fight Thousands Give Leader Ovation TUNIS, Tunisia (lP)-About 3,000 Tunisian nationalists rioted here yesterday to emphasize demands for a quick, complete independ- ence. French security forces broke up the demonstration with fire hoses and tear gas after a 45-miute fight. Other thousands of- Tunisians cheered the moderate nationalist leader, Habib Bourgiba, on his re- turn from Paris with a French pledge of autonomy in which some ties between France and Tunisia will be retained. They gave Bourgiba ovations at the airport and at the palace of the Bey of Tunis, Sidi Mohammed al Amin, to whom he reported. Months of tension in ; French North Africa-Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco-were reflected in these varied expressions of feeling. The rioters were followers of Salah ben Youssef, an exiled ex- tremist who formerly was secre- tary general of Bourgiba's Neo- Destour Independence party. The two men, once good friends, split last; fall. Ben Youssef contended Bourgiba's policy of negotiating with the French for concessions bit by bit was too slow. Ben Youssef's group flew flags of the rebels of neighboring Al- geria in a march to the Neo-Des- tour headquarters. The Tunisian settlement, reach- ed Tuesday, resembles.that which the French government negotiated last fall with French Morocco -- independence in a framework of interdependence with France. French Africa Policy Reform Authorized PARIS, Friday (JP)-The French National Assembly early today gave the government special powers to make sweeping political and administrative changes in French territories overseas. The vote was 477-99. This measure does not apply to North Africa, where d r a s t i c changes already are being made in the midst of crises in Tunisia, Morocco and Algeria. It applies to French-ruled areas of West Africa, Central Africa and the big island of Madagascar.. The Assembly gave its over- whelming approval to Premier Guy Mollet's proposal to permit the Cabinet to reshuffle the political organization in these latter areas. BOTH FILTER AND NON-FILTER: Cigarette Girl Induces Students to Right' Weed (EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the third in a series of articles on students who earn extra money on unique jobs.) By ERNEST THEODOSSIN Mary-Julia Baker is an example of the latest college phenomenon, the cigarette girl. Miss Baker can often be seen dispensing free cigarettes, both filter and non-filter, to anyone who will take them. There ark no strings attached to accepting Miss Baker's gifts, either. We asked the young lady if her job was to entice students to the weed. "Well, let's say," she replied, "to entice them to the 'right' weed. "We try not only to get people to smoke, but to smoke the right cigarette," she added, pointing out by "right" she meant her company's product. Miss Baker gets $25 a month for distributing cigarettes. She takes them to classes and any place where large groups of people gather. Some cigarette dispensers extoll the virtues of their gifts with eccentric :.. ,,.
