SIX PAGES Senator Barkley SDies in Virginia Collapses at Mid-point of Speech In Mock Democratic Convention LEXINGTON, Va. (W)-Senator Alben W. Barkley (D.-Ky.) col- lapsed and died yesterday while delivering the keynote address at the Washington and Lee University mock Democratic convention. The 79-year-old former vice president was pronounced dead only 10 minutes after his collapse at the mid-point of his speech. He had just finished the sentence: "I would rather be a servant in the house of the Lord than sit in the seat of the might" when he was stricken. Oxygen Given Dr. Robert Munger of Lexington quickly was summoned. Oxygen s T s Sign Here Four University students, on a pledge trip to Iowa City, Iowa for a "Scavanger-trip Hunt" were too successful. Arrested by the police, they told the judge that, among other things, they were sup- posed to bring back a signature of University of Iowa President Virgil M. Hancher and a ticket from the police. Officers cooperated by giving them a total of five tickets. The enthusiastic pledges were ac- cused of taking six highway signs marking the city limits and two street signs. One was also accused with running a stop sign. Total fines were $230. Russian Better 1 Lead ers With Request UOslo i SAYS IKE: Congress Asked Not to Tamper was administered. The students, Ike's Poli c 'Encourage Competition Speaks to C of C On Economic Growth WASHINGTON () - Presiden t Dwight D. Eisenhower told the U.S Chamber of Commerce yesterday that his administration is guide by a policy "to- foster progres through encouraging private com. petitive enterprise." President Eisenhower sent a mes- sage of greetings to the opening session of the three-day annual conveniton pf the business anen's organizatiofn. Farley and Graham First day speakers included James A. Farley, former Demo- cratic national chairman, and Billy Graham, the evangelist. President Eisenhower's message said the administration policy has created record prosperity. He ad- ded: "We must now find more ways to assist less flourishing segments of our economy to share more -equitably in this abundance and we must continue to champion fiscal integrity in government and to promote ' healthy economic growth." Ike's Burden Farley told the business men that President Eisenhower must bear part of the responsibility for the fact Congress has not acted on many of the government reor- ganization and economy proposals made last spring by the commis- sion headed by former President Herbert Hoover. Farley noted that President Eis- enhower had called attention to the Hoover recommendations in his message on the budget and the State of the Union. Committee Petitons Due Petitioning for the Literary Col- lege Steering Committee will re- main open until Friday, May 4.

All interested students who are in the Literary College may obtain petitions in Dean James H. Robertson's office, 1220 Angell Hall weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. who a few second before had been cheering wildly at Barkley, sat quietly in their seats as Barkely lay upon the platform. Virginia Gov. Thomas B. Stan- ley and Rep. B. P. Harrison (D- Va.) were on the platform with the former "Veep" when tragedy struck. The cause of death was not im- mediately announced. Not a Candidate Just before his collapse at the end of his speech the Kentucky Senator had announced he would not be a candidate for president t this year. Mayor Paul A. Holstein of Lex- ington made a short talk to the d students in the Doremus Gymna- s sium after Sen. Barkley had been Highour 'Sets Dow New Ruling WASHINGTON (RP) - The Su- preme Court, dividing 5-3, ruled yesterday that the government must swear it has "good cause" for ' bringing a suit to take away citi- zenship. Justice Clark, joined by Justices Reed and Minton said in dissent that the decision "may well sub- merge the denaturalization pro- cedure established by Congress in a morass of unintended procedural difficulties." The same three justices also dissented sharply in a 6-3 decision bypassing for the present a ruling on legality of the 1950 Communist registration law. New Status of Red Party The only difference in the court's lineup in the two cases was that Justice Harlan, in the ma- ority in the Communist party case, took no part in the denaturaliza- tion case. The 6-3 decision written by Jus- tice Frankfurther told the Sub- versive Activities Control Board it must reconsider its finding that the Communist party is a tool of Mos- cow And therefore must register with the attorney general, list its membership and give a financial accounting. Three Witnesses The board, the majority said, must give the Communist party a chance to try to discredit three government witnesses or else dis- regard their testimony entirely in redeciding the case. Chief Justice Warren wrote the 5-3 decision holding that the filing of a "good cause" affidavit by the government is necessary to main- tain a denaturalization suit. Zucca Suit Dismissed The ruling came i nthe case of Ettore Zucca, who was naturalized in U.S. District Court in 1944. In 1954, the U.S. attorney there filed suit to revoke Zucca's citizenship on the ground he had not reported membership in the Communist party and affiliated organizations from 1925 to 1947. The suit was dismissed in Dis- trict Court when the U.S. attor- ney failed to file an affidavit of "good cause." In another action yesterday, thea court affirmed 6-3 a ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals in San Fran- cisco that federal agents who lis- ten in on illegal radio broadcasts may use evidence obtained from them before grand juries and in trials. The court's order noted that Justices Black/ Frankfurter and 1 Douglas dissented.1 WASHINGTON (M)-President Dwight D. Eisephower advised Congress yesterday that tampering with his foreign aid program would "gravely endanger" national security and upset foreign policy. President Eisenhower's views were relayed to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee by Secretary of State John F. Dulles, along with Dulles' own recommendations to keep the program rolling as part of "a national insurance policy" against "a serious and evident threat from the Soviet Communists." The doubleheader appeal immediately ran into needling from Senator William Fulbright (D-Ark.) and a threat of a sizable cut. SEN. ALBEN BARKLEY dead at 79 removed on a. stretcher and said he believed it would be the Sena- tor's wish that the convention be continued. The senator was removed from the gymnasium, where the mock convention was being held, to Stonewall Jackson Memorial Hos- pital but was pronounced dead up- on arrival. The mock convention at once recessed until Monday night. Barkley had been elected -tem- porary chairman of the conven- tion, held by the students each presidential election year to "choose" a candidate for the par- ty that is out of power, and had been presented to the students by Gov. Stanley. Then came a stirring speech by the fighting, elderly senator. Everyone in the hall seemed to perk up and Sen. Barkley was given a rousing round of applause which stirred up new enthusiasm and confidence for President Tru- man's acceptance speech. Sen. Barkley was first married in 1903, to Miss Dorothy Brower of Paducah. She died in 1947 after a long illness. Sen. Fulbright told Dulles he can't vote for a 40 per cent hike in the foreign aid authorization in the face of what he said is constant propaganda from the Republicans about "peace and prosperity." "If we have peace," Sen. Ful- bright said, "then there is no ex- cuse for increasing this program by 40 per cent. If we don't have peace, then you ought to stop tell- ing us we do have peace." Sec. Dulles said the senator could tell his constituents: Carry On "The United States is at peace. We are at peace in large part be- cause we have this program, and therefore we should carry this pro- gran on." Besides, he said, while a 40 per cent increase-to nearly $4,700,- 000,000-is proposed for authorized spending, actual spending in the upcoming fiscal year would be at about the same level as this year- around four billion dollars. Can't Withdraw "It would indeed be ironic," Sec. Dulles said in a formal statement to the committee, "if, now that the Soviet has begun giving aid to its allies in terms of hundreds of millions, the United States should withdraw from that program which it invented and let the Soviet take over the field."

Citizens Able Cast First Ballot WASHINGTON P) - A similar election anywhere else probably wouldn't create much of a stir. But when District of Clumbia residents go to the polls today it's something extra special. They've been waiting, impatiently, 83 years for this chance to vote. Six Delegates Each Each party will pick six dele- gates to the national conventions. The main argument is among the Democrats, who have rival slates dedicated to the presidential hopes of Adlai Stevenson and Senator Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.) But overriding the election itself is tne thought that maybe this is a dress rehearsal for the real thing, and that pretty soon Wash- ington, D. C., will be permitted to elect, say, its own dog catcher. The nation's capital always has been a wonderful study in con- trasts. As steel is to Pittsburgh, or the automobile to Detroit, or wheat and cattle to Kansas City, so is politics to Washington. No One Has Voted A heavy, delightful odor blows steadily from the political stock- yards on Capitol Hill. With the right mixture of a pungent White House breeze, it's politically intoxi- cating. And yet, no legal resident of Washington , D C., ever has voted for president, and except for four years when it had a nonvoting delegate, the city has had no rep- resentation in Congress. In its early days it did have a mayor and alderman, but even this privilege was removed. The city now is run by three commissioners, appointed by the President, and Congress serves as a sort of City Council in its spare time. French Play "The 50th annual French play, "Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme," will be presented Wednesday by the French Club., A comedy-ballet in five acts by Moliere, the play is the same that was presented on May 3, 1907. Under the auspices of the Ro- mance Language Department it- will be held in the Lydia Mendels- shon Theater, in the League be- ginning at 7:30 p.m. study of classical culture in gen- eral.' Today's educators "persuade by making a great show, but they do not instruct because they have no knowledge," felt the educator. "To refuse to learn from the past, which is what we are doing, Senate Report Sunwarranted' DETROIT ({P)-A recent Senate "big business" subcommittee re- port on General Motors was de- nounced by GM yesterday as "wholly unwarranted," and based on opinion and hearsay rather than on documented fact. The statement was GM's reac- tion to the findings in a staff re- port of the subcommittee headed by Senator John O'Mahoney (D- Wyo). The committee report questioned whether GM should be allowed to expand freely into any new fields; it suggested GM should cut car prices and proposed a fur- ther study by Congress and the Justice Department to determine if action is called for to curb what the report called a trend toward monopoly by General Motors. General Motors charged the re- port "reflects the same emotional, rather than factual, approach to the 'case study' of General Motors that prevaded ,the hearings them- selves." is a manifestation of moral im- maturity," he asserted. He said that philosophers are partly to blame for the movement, since , John Dewey's iragmatic philosophy helped to establish these educational ideas. Prof. TenHoor is also dean of the college of arts and sciences at the University of Alabama. In in- troducing him, Prof. Frankena said as an abvious reference to that university's recent expulsion of Negro coed Autherine Lucy, "I take it that members of Phi Beta Kappa should be the last people to believe in guilt by associ- ation." Prof. TenHoor refused to make any statement after his speech concerning ,he incident, explain- ing that due to all the "bad pub- licity" the university has received, the administration decided that no one except the president of the university will make statements to the press. At the meeting it was also an- nounced that the new president of Phi Beta Kappa is 'Prof. Marshall Knappe. Claudia Irene Moore Smith, '56, and Thomas Eugene Kauper, '56, both initiated yes- terday, gave short talks on behalf of the new initiates at the ban- quet. The Alpha Chapter of Phi Beta Kappa honorary society initiated the following students last night: Juniors in the literary college are Ruth Mary Bassichis, Ann Ellis, Patrick Clark Fisher, Jane Arbon Fowler, Paul Alan Goodman, Richard, Carl Hausler. Other juniors are Barbara Joan Humphrey, Thomas Eugene Kau- per, Richard Kuisel, Mary Lou Marshall, Marjorie Anne Peircy and Robert Stenger. Seniors in the literary college include Susan Armstrong, Leila See MEMBERS, Page 6 -Daily-John Hirtzel PROF. MARTIN TENHOOR-Dean of University of Alabama arts and science college denounces pragmatism and refuses to comment on Lucy. Alabama Daean Decries Trend in Education By TED FRIEDMAN At the annual Phi Beta Kappa banquet in the Union yesterday, Prof. Martin TenHoor of the University of Alabama attacked what he called the "Worship of the Contemporaneous." Introduced by former Phi Beta Kappa president, Prof. William Friankena, of the philosophy department, Prof. TenHoor charged that "progressive" educators "refuse to learn from the past." It began when the classical languages such as Latin were dropped from the regular cirriculum. Then, "encouraged by their own logic and taste," said TenHoor, "neither of which they questioned, the educators went on to dismiss thea Khrushchev Commends 'Cooperation' Tour of Britain Called Significant MOSCOW R) - Soviet Russia's leaders returned from Britain to a triumphal flowers-and-kisses re- ception in Moscow yesterday, and promptly bid for improved rela- tions witi the United States. With Premier Nikolai Bulganin standing by, Communist boss Ni- kita Khrushchev told 10,000 cheer- ing Russians "It seems to us that the U.S.A. is already beginning to show desirable signs of moving on the road to cooperation." The overture appeared to indi- cate that the two hope to develop direct negotiations with President Dwight D. Eisenhower on world problems. 'Political Significance' Bulganin said their 10-day tour of Britain, in which they negotiat- ed with Prime Minister Anthony Eden, "was of great political and practical significance in Anglo- Soviet relations and the whole in- ternational life." The one sour point both emphasized was the at- titude of the British Socialist La- bor party, which they accused of following "reactionary anti-Soviet policy." From a red-draped speakers' stand at the Moscow military air- port, Khrushchev cited President Eisenhower's speech before v the American Society of Newspaper Editors in Washington April 21, Close Ties "We cannot agree with many things he said because they did not help good relations," Khrus- chev said, but he praised President Eisenhower's words on a possibili- ty of closer ties between Moscow and the West. President Eisenhower had chal- lenged the Russians to prove their avowal of peaceful intentions by abolishing "the wrongs of Stalin," in which he mentioned the con- tinued division of Germany and Korea. But he said a Soviet gov- ernment genuinely devoted to the legitimate interests of the Russian nation "can have friendly relations with the United States and the free world for the asking." Cities Petition University For Branches Citizen's groups of several Mich- igan cities have requested or peti- tioned the University to estab- lish branch schools in their areas. No final action has been taken with any of these requests, accord- ing to University Vice-President and Dean of Faculties Marvin L. Niehuss, although some requests have been considered. Both Grand Rapids and Flint have asked for medical schools to be established in their areas, and these requTests are presently being studied by a committee headed by Dean of the medical school Albert C. Furstenberg. Grand Rapids has also asked for the establishment of a four-year college there, and Traverse City has petitioned the University to set up a branch in its area, Although these requests are be- ing studied, according to Vice- President Niehuss, no recommen- dations have been made and noth- ing has reached the stage where it could go to the Regents.
