Convair Gets
Air Force
ICBM Plans
Sorrento, Calif.
Hosts New Plants
WASHINGTON (P)-Air Force
plans to prepare for production of
an Intercontinental Ballistic Mis-
sile were disclosed yesterday by
the company that will build the
new weapon.
An Air Force announcement
said only that it would build a
40-million-dollar plant in Califor-
nia to produce a missile system.
'Manufacture and Testing'
But Joseph T. McNarny, presi-
dent of the Convair Division of
General Dynamics Corp., said the
plant will be used for "research,
development, manufacture a n d
testing of the Atlas Intercontinen-
tal Ballistic Missile."
This was the first flat disclo-
sure that the Air Force is getting
ready to build the Atlas, which
reportedly is designed to travel
5,000 xniles at speeds up to 10,000
miles an hour.
The new plant will be con-
structed jointly by the Air Force
and Convair at Sorrento, Calif.,
north of San Diego.
Well Located
The Air Force said the site was
chosen "because of its proximity
to the Air Force test site at Syca-
more Canyon," and because it was
remote enough from other San
Diego defense activities to meet
tactical and strategic require-
ments.
Construction of the plant will
start this month. The /first units
will be ready next spring and the
plant will be fully completed by
the fall of 1957.
280-Acre Site
McNarny, a retired general, said
6,600 persons will be employed at
the plant by 1958.
The plant will occupy a 280-acre
site and will have a million square
feet of floor space.
The new plant will be Convair's
second devoted exclusively to
missiles. Convair's Pomona, Calif.,
division produces the Terrier sur-
face-to-air Missile for the Navy
and Marine Corps.

Diplomats See
Red Arms Cut
Belief Based on Secret Meeting
Of Eden, Stassen, Soviet Bosses
LONDON (A')-The Soviet Union may announce a big cut in its
armed forces soon in spite of the apparent deadlock in disarmament
talks with the West, diplomats predicted yesterday.
This expectation apparently was based on secret talks which
British Prime Minister Anthony Eden and Harold E. Stassen, President
Dwight D. Eisenhower's personal representative on disarmament, h'ad
separately with Soviet Premier Nikolai Bulganin and Communist party
Secretary Nikita Khrushchev during the Russians' 10-day visit to

Since the Russians' visit, Stassen also has had private meetings
with Andrei A. Gromyko, Soviet deputy foreign minister and represen-
tative on the five-nation disarmament subcommittee which is winding

To Freedom
Week Plans
Student Government Council
yesterday heard plans for Aca-
demic Freedom Week, to be held
from May 21 to 24 here at the
University.

versity Fund Drive to that of the
City, and another to go over the
contributions that Michigras can
make to the Campus Chest.
Plans for the Student-Faculty-
Administration Conference, to be
held May 12, were also revealed.

Joint Judiciary Council, exploring
the area of student conduct and
Hank Berliner, '56, past president
of SGC, discussing University ex-
pansion.
In the morning students will'
meet with the faculty and admin-
istration to discuss general ques-
tions in these areas. In the after-
noon groups will explore specific
points brought out in the morning.
Alleged Bribe
Made Public
NEW YORK (M) - The govern-
ment yesterday made public a
Madison Square Garden office
memorandum of 1949 in which Joe
Louis was alleged to have feared
loss of his heavyweight title and
demanded $100,000 "under-the-
table" to make a defense.
Louis never defended his title
after his second fight with Jersey
Joe Walcott, June 25, 1948, retir-
ing March 1, 1949 when the Inter-
national Boxing Club was formed.
It was in connection with the for-
mation of the IBC which is on
trial on charges of anti-trust viola-
tions, that the government pro-
duced the private document in
questioning Truman Gibson, Louis'
attorney and now IBC secretary.

Oup its unsuccessful negotiations
here.
Drafts Report
Delegates to the subcommittee
of the UN Disarmament commis-
sion -- representing the United
States, Britain, France, Russia and
Canada - began drafting their re-
port to the UN yesterday.
There were frank admissions
that the days of the parley were
numbered but none would admit
the seven-week meeting had been
a complete failure.
In talks with Eden and Stassen
the Soviet leaders have given the
impression that they seriously
want to cut down the burden of
their great land forces which the
West calculates exceed four million
men, informants said.
Needs Manpower
They added the Soviet program
of industrial and agricultural de-
velopment 4urgently needs man-
power now in uniform. Addition-
ally they have the feeling that the
Russians have come to realize that
new warfare techniques in the nu-
clear age have rendered the need
for great land armies obsolete.
Also the Russians know the great
propaganda value in an arms cut,
these sources said. If the Russians
do reduce armaments they will be
copying what the Western Powers
did immediately after World War
II.
The UN Disarmament subcom-
mittee instructed its secretariat to
compile a complete record of the
discussion Wednesday at its 48th
session in three years. Among the
documents are American, Russian
and Anglo-French disarmament
plans.

Late 'V eep'
WASHINGTON ( P)-The nation's
capital said farewell to "the Veep"
in a moving funeral ceremony yes-
terday that left political partisan-
ship wilted and forgotten.
President Dwight D. Eisenhower,
Vice-President Richard M. Nixon
and other top figures from both
parties joined in the solemn tribute
to Alben W. Barkley-the late sen-'
ator, former vice-president and by
common agreement one of the
most genial men ever to walk the
American political stage.
A few hours after the ceremony
in Foundry Methodist church, the
body of the 79-year-old Democratic
senator was taken by special train
for burial at Paducah, Ky., where
another service will be held today.
President Eisenhower postponed
a news conference until tomorrow
in order to attend yesterday's cere-
mony.
Scores of ordinary citizens stood
--many with umbrellas-outside
the church in a silent tribute to
the senator whose public career
spanned much of the 20th century.

Trip Ending;
UN Leader
Visits Syria
JERUSALEM (P)-UN Secretary
General Dag Hammarskjold, near-
ing the end of his Palestine peace
mission, made a quick round trip
to Damascus yesterday trying to
untangle an Arab-Israeli jam over
water rights.
He would not say whether he
succeeded.
Syria, with Jordan and Lebanon
following suit, had declined to sign
a cease-fie on its armistice de-
marcation line with Israel unless
Israel promised not to resme an
interrupted 1953 project to take
Jordan River water for power and
irrigation.
Hammarskjold would not tell re-
porters whether he got Israel to
make such a promise or got.Syria
to drop its demand. He remarked
in French, "I am the silent boy."
The United Nations' top official
was questioned before he left
Damascus to fly back to Jerusalem.
He spent almost two and one-half
hours in an afternoon conference
with Syrian Premier-Foreign Min-
ister Said Ghazzi and Defense
Minister Rashad Barmada.
He had a morning conference
here with Israel Premier David
Ben-Gurion and Foreign Minister
Moshe Sharett.
Hammarskjold wants cease-fire
agreements between Israel and
Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria to
match that put into effect April
18 between Egypt and Israel. The
latter has been hailed as the major
accomplishment in his peace mis-
sion for the Security Council, on
which he left New York April 6.
Police Begin
Fining B ike
Rule Violators
In accordance with a city ordi-
nance requiring all bicycles to have
a light and a license, Ann Arbor
police yesterday began handing out
tickets to bicycle owners who have
not complied with the regulation.
Though no official statistics were
available, an estimated 35 to 40
offenders were ticketed during the
day. Each ticket carries a fine of
one dollar.
Beginning May 11, unlicensed
bicycles will be impounded, and the
owners required to claim them at
the police station by proving own-
ershipnand complying with the
ordinance.
The primary reason for the li-
censing, police say, is to aid in
identification of lost or stolen
bikes. It was pointed out that in
the past students have reported
bikes lost or stolen, but were often
unable to provide the make and
serial number. If they were un-
licensed, there was no record of
the information, and police had
very little to go on in finding the
missing vehicles.
Students, an officer commented,
are often negligent about obeying
the laws, and the penalties-tickets
and impounding the bicycles-are
necessary to force compliance from
those who ignore the regulations.
An official of the Ann Arbor
Police Department will be in the
lobby of the Administration Build-
ing between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. to-
day and Friday to issue licenses
to those students who do not yet
have them.

Aid
Extra-NATO
Draft Given
By France
Dulles, Pinean
Confer in Paris
PARIS (P) - France yesterday
urged the United States to join in
organizing a new international
agency to distribute economic aid
to the world's needy.
French officials said Foreign
Minister Christian Pineau laid the
plan before U.S. Secretary of State
John Foster Dulles in a two-hour
conference at the foreign office.
The two rlinisters met shortly
after Dulles flew into Paris for
what Western diplomats say may
be a momentous session of the
Ministerial Council of the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization.
Reshape NATO
Before leaving Washington, Dui-
les said one of the main ams of
the session is to plan the reshaping
of NATO "into something more
than a military alliance."
The secretary apparently favors
widening NATO into the political
and economic fields to meet the
challenge of Russia's worldwide
trade-and-aid offensive.
A White House statement said
Dulles had conferred with Presi-
dent Dwight D. Eisenhower on "the
political development of the Atlan-
tic community."
The use of the term "Atlantic
community" was considered sig-
nificant. This would include such
non-NATO members as Spain,
Sweden and Switzerland.
Outside Agency
Informants said the French plan
calls for a new aid agency set up
outside NATO and "within -the
framework of the United Nations
or some similar world organiza-
tion."
Presmably Russia would be free
to join.
The agency would not only
work at bolstering underdeveloped
countries of Asia, Africa and the
Middle East, but also-such depress-
ed European areas as 'southern
Italy.
Pineau told Dulles the agency
must be kept outside of NATO to
avoid having it looked on as an-
other instrument of the cold war.
The minister argued this would be
the best way of rallying the un-
committed nations of the world to
the support of Western ideas.
The informants declined to give
Dulles' reaction to the plan. An
American spokesman also refused
comment.

In their feathers and their

Soon will gather 'round the

'Round the oak tree called

Of the loud rejoicing redskins;
But, before they take the long trats
To the home of Michigamua

CITY ATTEMPTS 'SWITCH' METHOD:

No-Parking Signs Stir. Protests

By ALLAN STILLWAGON
Nowhere in the world could a
few no-parking signs arouse cries
of indignation and of protest of
Municipal despotism.
Nowhere, that is, but in Ann
Arbor.
It began very simply, just about
a month and a half ago. The Ann
Arbor, City Commission, at its
March 16th meeting, received a
report from the Traffic and Safety
Commission recommending that
"switch-parking" regulations be
put in effect on Oakland, from
Monroe to Forest, and on Church,
from Mill to Prosneet.
