Disarmament Commission Downs
Debate Bid -'Too Confusing'
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (A)-The United Nations Disarmament
Commission smothered under vigorous vocal objections yesterday a
Soviet demand for an immediate UN debate on disarmament.
United States Chief Delegate Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., and every
other member of the commission except the Soviet delegate agreed
it is not the time for a disarmament debate. They called for time to
study a pile of disarmament records a foot and a half high, and said
that debate on thi subject now would add confusion to the Geneva
meeting of the Big Four foreign ministers.
Arkady A. Sobolev, Soviet delegate, attempted to have the com-

Dulles Wary,
91
of Big Four
Conference
WASHINGTON (I - Secretary,
of State John Foster Dulles left
for the Big Four foreign ministers
conference yesterday, vowing
readiness to meet Russia's "legiti-
mate" security concerns but not
at the price of keeping Germany
divided.
"Security for Russians is not in-
consistent with justice for Ger-
mans," Dulles said in an airport
statement.
"Indeed, we doubt that in the
long run security is ever gained by
perpetuating a grave injustice like
the division of Germany."
George Doubts Progress
The Secretary's words came
shortly after Sen. Walter George
(D-Ga.) told newsmen at the State
Department he doubts the foreign
ministers meeting at Geneva will
"get much beyond" the issues of
German reunification and Euro-
pean security. George, chairman
of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee, said that not much
progress can b hoped for unless
these matters are settled. But once
they are, George said, "you can
make great progress."
Traveling with Dulles were Sec-
; retary of Defense Charles E. Wil-
son and Harold E. Stassen, presi-
dential disarmament adviser.1
Dulles' first stop is Rome, where
he will consult with Italian gov-
ernment officials before proceed-
ing to Paris for talks with British,
French and other Allied leaders in
advance of their meeting the Rus-
sians Thursday.
Dulles' departure statement used
more guarded words than some of
his previous statements. Whereas
he said last Tuesday at Denver
that he and President Dwight D.
Eisenhower shared a "measured
hope" of progress at Geneva, Dulles
declared yesterday:
Conference 'Serious'
"I realize that this conference
has serious implications. The
foundations for it were built by
the heads of government them-
selves. ,
"If, as I believe, we can build
on that foundation, even modestly,
then it will be good for all the
world and we can look to the fu-
ture with renewed confidence."
Dulles Sees Progress
Thus, Dulles appeared to be
looking for modest progress but
cautioning that it may be neces-
sary to abandon "many high
hopes."
The emphasis placed by George
and Dulles on German unity and
European security reflect much of
what Pres. Eisenhower told Soviet
Premier Bulganin at the summit
ronference last July.
Wallace Asks
Ike's Election
NEW YORK (l)-Henry Wal-
lace said yesterday the best presi-
dential choice in 1956 "to further

ne supported him and he did not
rpress the demand. The committee
adjourned at 4:58 p.m. with the
new meeting date to be set by the
next chairman. Sobolev becomes
chairman Nov. 1 and is expected
to call a meeting soon after he
takes the chair.
Charges US Backed Down
Sobolev said the United States
appeared to have turned its back
on disarmament goals.
Lodge replied:
"I not only know of no such
abandonment, but, speaking as
Presdient Eisenhower's represen-
tative, I know there is no subject
on earth closer to his mind and
heart than disarmament.
He has told me repeatedly that
he will embrace any program of
disarmament which is fair and
workable and which is equipped
with a trustworthy inspection sys-
tem."
Near the end of the long ses-
sion, Sobolev repeated Soviet con-
tentions that President Eisenhow-
er's "open sky" plandoes not re-
fer to reduction of armaments or
the prohibition of atomic weapons.
He indicated those are essential to
any scheme of disarmament ac-
ceptable to Russia.
Sobolev Wants Debate
Sobolev earlier said debate would
help the Big Four foreign min-
isters solve the disarmament prob-
lem at their Geneva conference
opening ct. 27.
Western delegates said they
would debate disarmament here
only after a thorough study and
that discussion now would add
confusion to the Geneva meeting.
Sobolev slapped at Harold E.
Stassen, disarmament advisor to
President Eisenhower. He said
Stassen contended in the sub-
committee talks that at present
effective control or arms reduc-
tion is not possible and thus, in
the Soviet view, actually had re-
jected the very idea of arms re-
duction.
Best Friend
BROCKTON, Mass. 03)-One
of man's best friends was pick-
ed upby police yesterday for
drunkenness.
Alfonzo, a 70-pound boxer
dog, weaved down one of Brock-
ton's main streets in obvious
distress. He stopped and lean-
ed against a utility pole for
support. Even that wasn't
enough-Alfonzo collapsed to
the sidewalk.
Worried spectators called po-
liee who classified the dog as a
drunk and took him home.

GOP Race
'Desperate'
-Kefauver
ERIE, Pa. ()-Sen. Estes Ke-
fauver (D-Tenn) said yesterday
the Republicans will conduct a
"desperate" campaign next year
if forced to run without President
Dwight D. Eisenhower as head of
their ticket.
Eefauver told his fellow Demo-
crats that overoptimism about
their party's 1956 prospects " at
this point is as dangerous as it can
be."
The lanky Tennesseean came to
Erie for his first appearance at
a Democratic rally since he re-
turned from a world tour. He said
Monday he will decide later
whether to seek the presidential
nomination again.
He said that the "sad accur-
ence" of Eisenhower's illness has
changed the political picture be-
cause "the Republican party has
placed all its hopes on the lone
figure of the President."
Vice-President Nixon, Kefauver
recalled, "has said that the Re-
publicans were in the minority
and only a personality like Mr.
Eisenhower could pull them
through at election time."

BROWNELL-IKE PARLEY:
Six Point Judicial Plan,
Approved ByPresident
'N R _________C_________________

DENVER ()-Attorney GeneralI
Herbert Brownell, a top adminis-
tration political strategist, saw
Pres. Dwight D. Eisenhower yes-
terday-and said he got approval
of a six-point program for war
on crime and improved handling
of federal criminal cases.
So the conference revolved al-
most entirely around the Justice
Department's program in the field
of criminal law for next year.
Brownell said Pres. Eisenhower
approved it in full and it includes:
1. A request to Congress for a
law making it a crime to invade
the privacy of juries while they
are considering cases. This grew
out of the recently disclosed wire-
tapping of jury deliberations at
Wichita, Kan.
SGC Petitions
Petitions are available for Stu-
dent Government Council positions
in Rm. 1020 Administration Bldg.
Seventeen petitions have been
taken out so far.
All petitions are due in Rm. 1020
Administration Bldg. by 5 p.m.
Wednesday.

2. Proposed legislation to es-
tablish a system of paid public
defenders - hundreds of them
serving on a full and part time
basis - to protect the rights of
persons who can't afford to hire
lawyers in federal cases.
Seek to Cut Down Delays
3. Steps to cut down delays in
federal courts. The aim is to re-
duce the backlog of cases by 25
per cent. Task forces of lawyers
will be sent from Washington intoI
congested districts and Congressj
will be asked to authorize the
appointment of some 20 new fed-
eral judges.
4. Building a new 9%-million-
dollar "maximum security" prison
to relieve the load on overcrowded
Alcatraz, Atlanta and Leaven-
worth.
5. -Constructing a 7%/-million-
dollar correction center for youth-
ful criminals, to serve the area
west of the Mississippi River. The
only existing center, at Ashland,
Ky., handles youths from east of
the Mississippi.
6. A nationwide conference in
Washington next April on parole
practice and procedures, with a
view to changes that would be
helpful in rehabilitating prisoners.

Democrat
Heads Hold
Conference
AUSTIN, Tex. (A') - Senate
majority leader Lyndon B. John-
son (D-Tex:) yesterday continued
a series of conference with top
Democratic figures - this time
Sen. Stuart Symington (D-Mo.)-
at his Pedernales River ranch.
Both Johnson and Symington
have been mentioned as possibili-
ties in the race for the Democratic
presidential nomination next year.
The New York Times and the
Baltimore Sun recently said John-
son was trying to work out a co-
alition to block automatic nomina-
tion of Stevenson.

injured, since the first four strings
have received some sort of injury
in recent games.
At end, Michigan's All-Ameri-
can candidate, Ron Kramer, made
the trip here and will probably
dress for the game. Tom Maentz,
recently returned from the injured
list, along with centers John Peck-
ham and Jerry Goebel, received
head injuries in last week's North-
western game.
Fulbacks Lou Baldacci and Dave
Hill both have been bothered with
sore ankles while Ed Shannon,
third string fullback, is out with
a broken wrist.
On the Minnesota side, the pic-
ture is similar. Coach Murry War-
math's squad has been overrun
with a plague of injuries. Full-
back Ken Yackel, right halfback
"Shorty" Cochran, ends Tom Juhl
and Franz Koeneke, center Dean
Maas and tackle Erle Ukkelberg,
all regular starters,,have been out
of action and only Yackel and
Cochran are due to see action in
today's game.
Regionally Televised
Today's Little Brown Jug clash,
which is going to be regionally
televised by the Columbia Broad-
casting System, runs a close par-
allel to last season's battle, except
that the tables are turned. As
both teams ran out of the tunnel
last season many fans as well as
the experts picked the Golden Go-
phers to win their fifth straight
game. Minnesota was ranked in
the top ten nationally and was
loaded with great stars, such as

Senator George: Nixon
May Be Ike's Handicap
WASHINGTON (A')- Sen. Walter George (D-Ga.) said yesterday
that Vice-President Richard Nixon may be a "handicap" to President
Dwight D. Eisenhower if the latter runs for a second term.
Senator George, who cooperated with Eisenhower Administration
officials in his position as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee, said in an interview he doesn't believe President Eisen-
hower could "carry two handicaps" and win the presidency.

The Georgia senator did not ex-
pand on this observation. But he
indicated he regards Vice-Presi-j

Commissionr
Asks Calm
In Plebesite
SAARBRUECKEN, Saar (I)
The European Commission for the
Saar sternly warned Saarlanders
yesterday to maintain order and
calm during tomorrow's plebiscite
on Europeanization of the rict'
valley.
The warning followed a com-
mission announcement that the
Saar's borders will be sealed tight
tomorrow to keep out any foreign
troublemakers during the voting
and counting,
- 'Peace Might Change'
Sen. Fernard Dehousse, the
commission's Belgian chairman,
told a news conference the recent
relative peace of the hotly con-
tested plebiscite campaign "might
change in the last days or on
Sunday itself." He said the voting
must be conducted with "order and
calm worthy of a democracy."'
Tempers are running high as the
campaign for approval of the stat-
ute placing this coal and steel-r4.ch
territory on the French-German
border under Western European
Union control nears an end. Pitted
against the pro-Europeanization
forces led by Saar Premier Johan-
nes Hoffman are strong pro-Ger-
man elements who want the terri-
tory restored to Germany-despite
the West German government's
support of Europeanization.
Favored Germany
In 1935, when Hitler was in
power, 94 per cent of the Saar-
landers voted in plebiscite to cast
off League of Nations trusteeship
and go back to Germany.
At the end of World War II,
France took control of the Sar's
economy and foreign affairs and
supervision of its internal govern-
ment, headed by Hoffman. Dis-
pute between France and West
Germany over the territory's future
was an obstacle to the Bonn gov-
ernment's entry into the. North
Atlantio Treaty Alliance and au-
thorization for West German re-
armament until the Europeaniza-
tion solution was proposed and
accepted by both sides.
Faure Asks
Key Chiange
PARIS (R) - Premier Edgar
Faure announced yesterday he will
ask the French National Assembly
next week to approve its own dis-,
solution so general elections can
be held early in December.
A new Assembly is needed to
take such decisions, Faure declar-
ed, so continuity can be assured
and the deputies will not be forced
to act with one eye on a coming
electoral campaign.
Normally, the next elections
would be held in June 1956, at the
expiration of the five-year man-
date of the Assembly. Never be-
fore in French history has a Leg-
islature hastened its own end.

DAMP HOMECOMING FESTIVITIES?

Taylor Challenges Gomberg To River Tug-0'-War

By DICK SNYDER
Long traditional on the Michigan campus, the homecoming "Mud-.
bowl" game is up for some rival competition this year.
As a result of a Taylor House challenge to their upstairs neigh-
bors in Gomberg, restless pre-game spectators will be able to witness
next Saturday an old-fashioned tug-o'-war across the Huron River.
And to prevent disappointment on the part of any enthusiastic
fans, "There will be no ties, somebody's going to lose," according to
Taylor House president Marshall Badt, '56P.
Accepting the challenge, Gomberg's president Lee Stern, '56E,
echoed the words of Badt that there would be a loser, but both men
differed as to who that "loser" would be.
"Go, Big Red!"
Gomberg men first heard of the challenge through ao neatly-
painted sign in the lobby outside their South Quad dining room, and
reaction came in the form of an emphatic "Go, Big Red!"
An innovation in campus spirit, the Taylor-Gomberg tug-o'-war
will probably take place in the vicinity of the much-reputed "Island"
off Wall Street.
As announced by the Taylor sign, "any dues-paying member" of

Republicans and would welcome
the nomination of the vice-presi-
dent for top place on the Republi-
can ticket if President Eisenhow-
er decides not to run again be-
cause of his heart attack.
Vice-President Nixon has been
under fire from Democratic lead-
ers since the 1952 campaign when
they accused the vice-president of
campaigning on the issue that the
Democrats were "soft' on commun-
ism.
Senator George's statement was
regarded as significant, indicating
that staunch Southern Democrats
who do not always agree with their
party's national leaders share the
general Democratic antipathy to-
ward Nixon.
