There is a pitiful scarcity of apartments locally and the rentsare outrageous, approaching those in the District of Columbia. This situation has prompted both the Un- versity and Ann Arbor landladies to throw roadblocks in the paths of all unmarried male students endeavoring to find a reasonable alter- native to the regimentation of the dormitories and the follies of fraternity system. The Administration has decided to enforce the provisions of Regents By-Law 1948, Section 8.07 Henceforth, no unmarried male student, undergraduate or graduate, may live in an apartment house, and the By-Law requires permission from the Dean of Students for those willing to risk their pocketbooks for privacy. University officials have given two reasons for reviving the 'By-Law: (1) there are not enough apartment facilities in Ann Arbor to accommodate married couples, and (2) there have been numerous complaints regarding the conduct of single male students living in apart- ment houses. The University has left a loop-hole for those single men who can show an economic justifi- cation for living in an apartment. Meanwhile, the landladies are making it ex- tremely difficult for men students to find a tolerable apartment. A check on the bulletin board in the Office of Student Affairs and in the classified ads sections of the local papers indicates that the landladies are overwhelm- ingly in favor of marriage.

If this rebuff doesn't cool off' the prospective tenant, then he has to face the imposition of a plethora of restrictions and reservations - no dogs, no cats,' no' concubines, no tuning your radio above a whisper, ad nauseam. The landlady then names her: price and the rent is usually incredible enough to drive .the tenant back into the protective arms of the University. While we do not object to the By-Law, under the circumstances, because it recognizes the need for apartment facilities for married couples, we do object to the conditions that created the By-Law. Over the past three years, Ann Arbor's apartment and housing problems have become intolerable enough to merit the serious examination of both the City Council and the Administration. It is time that the University and the City, respectively, explore the possibilities of constructing new housing units and also of establishing reasonable rent controls. Otherwise, the housing situation may drive a good many students to other universities, where no burdensome restrictions are placed on non-collegiate housing, where a tenant can live his own placid life without having to pay famously for that simple prerogative. What price privacy? -Cal Samra Abolishing War By J. M. ROBERTS Associated Press News Analyst T HE LATEST move by Bertrand Russell and a group of scientists to focus world at- tention on the need for abolishing war is re- mindful of the preacher who, asked about his qualifications for a new pastorate, said he was against sin. The meeting of Big Four leaders in Geneva next week is the direct result of a world de- mand for avoidance of war. The demand was produced by realization that a human race which knows how to destroy itself should also be smart enough to save itself. The British philosopher and his nine scientists merely add to that. In the exchange between Russell and France's Professor Joliet-Curie, however, a point is brought out which emnhasizes the The Daily Official Bulletin is an official publication of the University of Michigan for which the Michigan Daily assumes no editorial responsi- bility.

Open to the gen- eral public. findan Reitl .ni rr nr By DREW PEARSON WASHINGTON-With Congress out of town, President Eisen- hower is spending more time on the golf course at Gettysburg and at the Burning Tree Club just out- side of Washington. Caddies at Burning Tree have got to know the President almost as well as some members of the Cabinet know him. As far as golf is concerned they know him bet- ter. And some of the caddies have quite a collection of his golf balls, the gift to Ike of a sporting goods firm, with "Mr. President" stamp- ed on them. The President usual- ly gives one or two away during a match, but they are kept as sou- venirs by the lucky recipients and never put back into play. Golfing companions have noted a special improvement in Ike's driving: he consistently pokes 'em off the tee for 200 yards or long- er. However, he is still a little er- ratic in his putting and approach shots, particularly on "chip" shots that have to be lofted over a trap. He works on this whenever he has time to practice on the White house lawn. In a regular match the Presi- dent shoots in the high 80's, bet- ter than average at Burning Tree. But he is a fierce competitor, hates to lose to anyone,even his own son, John, nowstationed at near- by Fort Belvoir, Va. John hits a longer ball but is not as good a putter as his father, who usually beats him by a few strokes. Other favorite golfing cronies of the President include Col. Tom Belshe, a retired Army officer, Jack Westland of Washington, and GOP Congressmen Charlie Hal- leck of Indiana and Les Arends of Illinois. Westland was national amateur golfing champion in 19- 52. However, Ike keeps his favor- ite sport on a bipartisan plane by sometimes inviting Rep. George Mahon of Texas or another Demo- crat to join in a foursome. DANGER ON GOLF COURSE THE PRESIDENT insists on split- ting caddie fees with his four- some partner. Counting tips, this usually is $7 for 18 holes, making Ike's share $3.50. He always pays off in crisp new bills. At the end of a match, he "replays" his good and bad shots while under the shower or while chatting with fellow play- ers over refreshments at the "19th hole." Ike is an eager beaver type on the green and moves so fast after teeing off that he sometimes is standing over his ball while com- panions, who may be lying far- ther from the green and therefore are entitled to the next shot, are preparing to swing again. This causes some concern at Burning Tree. "Suppose," remarked one of Ike's golfing pals, "one of us should ac- cidentally hit the President while he is standing there ahead of us. He is such a strong competitor and so engrossed in his game that he doesn't think about the possibility of getting conked by a stray ball." When the President is advised of his risky position, he apolo- gizes and steps back with a grin so the game can go on. The Secret Service keep a vigilant eye on the chief executive, though not out of fear that he may be hit by a golf ball. One of ' Ike's favorite golfing stories is about a Secret Service "lapse" one day when he was playing at Burning Tree. Secret Service agents were at the entrance gate, checking auto- mobiles and their occupants. Merle Thorpe, former editor of Nation's Business, drove up and was asked his name. Without blinking an eye, Thorpe reeled off the most Russian-sounding name he could make up, with a "ski" on the end of it. "Pass on in," said the agent without hesitation. RECORD BANKRUPTCIES DESPITE THE full-blown pros- perity in most of the U.S., bankruptcy cases in the same U.S. are at an all-time high. This prob- ably represents the difficulty of small business to compete against the modern methods of big busi- ness. How many companies are going bankrupt is indicated by the re- cent request of the Commerce De- partment for the largest amount of money in history for salaries to referees in bankruptcy. Acting on this request, the House Banking and Currency Committee stated: "The committee was advised that approximately 65,000 bankruptcy cases will be filed in 1955, that a total increase of 75,000 in 1956 can be expected. This would be the highest number of bankrupt- cies recorded in the history of the country." Meanwhile the profits of Gen- eral Motors during the first year of the Eisenhower Administration increased approximately 50 pe cent. GOP LEADERS REPEAT TODAY, Republican leaders are equally determined to nomi- nate Dwight Eisenhower, in part for the same reasons. They know that any other Republican can- didate would have a hard time winning. They know that on do- mestic issues-Dixon-Yates, farm prices, big business monopoly-the Republicans face a rough cam- paign. But on international issues they feel Eisenhower has struck a winning streak and can be pro- moted as the "indispensable man." However, there is one big dif- ference. Eisenhower so far hasn't bought the GOP line. Unlike Roosevelt, who was will- ing to go along with party leaders, Eisenhower has been telling them for months that they had to pick new young leaders, that he was not going to run again. On Jan. 4, this column reported in detail on one of the private dinners at the White House at which Ike told his closest friends that they must begin building up new, "dynamic" men to replace him. This writer has consistently re- ported-with one exception-that Ike did not want to run again. The except'ion was a column written from Geneva, where it seemed to this observer that Ike had hit his stride, was doing the things he likes best to do, and probably could be persuaded to run again on a "peace-in-our-time" plat. form. However, the recent meeting he had with Senator. George Bender and other Ohio Republicans indi- cates to the contrary and is more significant than the public re- alizes. For Senator Bender and friends did not want to tell news- men what Ike had told them. They had to be prodded by the White House into making a statement. George Bender is quite a friend- ly, loquacious fellow. He talks to the press at the drop of a hat. But he did not want to give newsmen the discouraging news that Ike considered age a detriment to running again. And it was only when Ike's press officer intervened and asked the Ohioans to report what Ike had told them that they spilled the news that GOP leaders had heard privately, but hated to hear pub- licly. In brief, the President de- liberately wanted published the fact that he would be the oldest President in history if re-elected and his feeling that the burden of the Presidency erodes a man's health.
