NOVEMBER 2, 1955 A NIGHT EDITOR: ERNEST THEODOSSIN "Throw Another Log on the Fire" %:, . >,. 4.7,x. ! -Y " 't G T: Geneva Proposals For Better East-West Relations THE foreign ministers in Geneva offered early this week an enumerated list of proposals to establish better contact between the East and the West. The following is a somewhat abbreviated list- ing of the Soviet proposals in Geneva, reprinted from the New York Times. * * * 1. It is recognized that measures should be taken to facilitate the development of interna- tional trade with a view to eliminate the exist- ing obstacles and restrictions in international trade between the East and the West and to apply the principle of most-favored-nation treatment in the fields of trade and navigation. 2. The four powers shall do their utmost to facilitate free passage of merchant ships of all countries through sea straits and canals of in- ternational importance and to remove the ex- isting restrictions in sea communications with certain states. 3. Measures shall be taken to widen inter- national scientific and technical relations and, in particular, in the field of peaceful uses of atomic energy (technology, agriculture, medi- cine and so forth) through holding conferences with the participation of respective specialists and so on. Appropriate steps shall be taken by the repiesentatives of the four powers in inter- national organizations dealing with interna- tional cooperation in the field of science and technology. As an immediate measure, to consider it de- sirable to convene in 1956 an international conference on the use of atomic energy in the field of public health. 4. The four powers declare themselves in favor of the participation in international spe- cialized agencies of all states desiring to coop- erate in the work of these organizations. 5. The following measures shall also be en- couraged, including those possible in organs and agencies of the United Nations, which could facilitate the strengthening of contacts between the East and the West in the sphere of industry, agriculture, cultural relations and in the de- velopment of tourism: (a) Mutual exchange of delegations and reci- procal visits of representatives of industry, ag- riculture and trade for the purpose of exchang- ing experiences and learning of the achieve- ments of respective countries in these fields. (b) Development of cultural relations be- tween countries for the purpose of broader in- tercourse of men of science and culture and of the exchange of cultural values, having in view the desirability of concluding appropriate agreements between states on cultural coopera- tion. (c) Expansion of mutual exchange of publi- cations (books, magazines, newspapers, and so forth) between the institutions of scientific re- search, libraries, scientific and cultural associa- tions, social organizations and individuals. (d) Measures for a broader development of international tourism and sporting relations between nations. (e) Measures for the elimination of the ex- isting artificial barriers in the field of immigra- tion and other regulations which hamper the expansion of the above-mentioned contacts be- tween states. Western Plan For Better Contact THE followin is a list of proposals offered by the Western foreign ministers: The program of Western governments com- prehends the following concrete propositions: 1. The freer exchange of information and ideas should be facilitated. All censorship should be progressively eliminated. The ob- stacles which hamper the flow of full factual information and varied comment between peoples of the West and those of Soviet Union, should be removed. 2. Arrangements should be made for the four powers to open information centers, on a INTERPRETING THE NEWS Margaret Pu By J. M. ROBERTS Associated Press News Analyst THROUGH all history the young woman, sep- arated from her lover either by an iron- handed parent or the restrictions of position and tradition, has been an object of universal sympathy. When she does the separating herself, she attracts confused reactions-sympathy, to be sure, but also a certain admiration, perhaps offset by a certain disapproval. When she was but a child, Princess Margaret saw her uncle renounce the throne of Britain for the woman he loved. Because of that, her sister is Queen of England. Because of that, her raising has been even more careful than it basis of reciprocity, in each other's capitals where these do not already exist. Everyone should be allowed the full use of these centers without hindrance or discouragement from their own government. 3. The four powers, where they do not al- ready do so, should permit the publication and facilitate the distribution to public institutions and private individuals in each other's coun- tries of official periodicals printed in English, French or Russian. 4. Exchanges of books, periodicals and news-. papers between principal libraries, universities and professional and scientific bodies in the Soviet Union and the three Western countries should be encouraged. Such books, periodicals and newspapers should also be available for general and unimpeded public sale in the Soviet Union on one hand and the three Western countries on the other. 5. There should be a substantial increase in exchange of government publications and full lists, catalogs and indexes of such publications should be made available by governments where they do not already do so. 6. Film producers of the three Western countries are ready to make films available to the Soviet Union at normal commercial prices and on normal commercial terms. Soviet films are already accepted in the West on these terms. 7. There should be exchanges of exhibitions between the Soviet Union and the three West- ern countries. 8. The systematic jamming of broadcasts of news and information is a practice to be de- plored. It is incompatible with the directive from the four heads of government and should be discontinued. 9. The Soviet Union and the Western pow- ers should consider the desirability of exchang- ing monthly uncensored broadcasts on world developments. This could take the form of half hours .for the Soviet Union on Western broad- casting systems with reciprocal arrangements for the Western powers on the Soviet system. 10. The censorship of outgoing press dis- patches and the denial to journalists of access to normal sources of information are serious barriers to the free circulation of ideas. The four governments, where appropriate, should take immediate steps to remove such barriers. 11. Private tourism should be increased. This will require more liberal procedures as regards travel restrictions and other administrative practices. Above all it will require reasonable rates of currency exchange. 12. There should be further exchanges of persons in professional, cultural, scientific and technical fields. 13. Meetings of outstanding scientists and scholars of the four countries at reputable in- ternational congresses should be facilitated. 14. There should be cultural and sporting exchanges on a reciprocal basis, drawing on the best each has to offer under the auspices of the principal cultural institutions and sporting or- ganizations on both sides. 15. A beginning should be made with ex- changes of students, particularly those engaged in language and other area studies. It shoul' be possible for students to share fully and freely the student life of the country they visit. 16. Restrictions on the ability of members of diplomatic missions of the four governments to travel in each other's countries should be removed on basis of reciprocity. 17. Agreement should be reached in prin- ciple for reciprocal exchanges of direct air transport services between cities of Soviet Union and cities of the three Western counties. So far as trade is concerned the Western powers sincerely desire to see an improvement in the commercial relations between the coun- tries of Eastern Europe and themselves, lead- ing to an increase in mutual trade in peaceful goods. To this end they have made freely avail- able to the countries of Eastern Europe a wide area of trade with respect both to exports and imports. i Duty First Is sworn to defend the official faith of Britain, because the tenets of that faith forbade her marriage to Peter Townsend, she has drowned her love in the dignity which surrounds the British throne. MANY people had hoped and expected that she would kick over the traces, marry the man she loves, and let dignity go hang. Many thought she had enjoyed vast advan- tages because of her birth, and that she must accept the attendant responsibilities, too. Americans can hardly conceive of the re- sponsibilities attached to membership in the British Royal family. They are servants of the state after a fashion never approached by any slave. They have no power of their own. STANLEY QUARTET: Initial Program Delightful QUARTET music returned to Ann Arbor for the first time this semester when the Stanley Quartet played last evening at the Rackham Lecture Hall before its usual appreciative and discrim- inating audience. The program consisted of works by Mozart, Fin- ney and, Debussy-a selection characterized by its variety' and its reflection of good musical taste. All the works have been played before by the Stanley, but none gave such special pleasure on re- hearing as the Finney Quartet in A minor, No. 4, for it is both a beautifully expressive contempor- ary work and was beautifully play- ed as well. Far from being dis- sonant for its own sake, or pos- sessed of trivial, showy rhythms, the work has an integrated, and ordered structure, and is genuine- ly true to its age in spirit and tech- nique. THE ENERGETIC first move- ment is grounded upon a simple rhythmic figure which is started the violins and back to the cello by the viola and then passed to before it is caught up by all the strings in forceful, yet freely mov- ing ensemble. The Quartet both played the theme and played with it, responding spiritedly under the relentless thematic development. The beautifully wistful and search- ing second movement was also sensitively handled by the indi- vidual strings and by very good ensemble playing, in which all the voices spoke evenly and without distortion. The third movement is full of sprightly tempo and this was dy- namically projected from the start, with its affirmative and bouncing introduction by the viola, to the end, with its excitement of well- played unison scherzo. And fi- nally the very slow, melodic, fourth movement was captured in finely balanced quartet harmony. APPROPRIATELY enough an- other near-contemporary work, the Debussy G minor quartet, re- ceived an excellent performance. The fine co-ordination and tone modulation of which the Stanley is always capable showed to their best in this work, whether it was in the vigorous first and second movements, which one might not think Debussy capable of writing, or in the enchanting, more typi- cal, third movement. Always one felt in the Stanley's playingthat freedom of thematic motion yet controlled change of mood and tone that Debussy requires in his compositions. Equally impressive were the individual voices in their turn, and especially in the Andan- tino. The Mozart Quartet in B-flat, the third work performed, was played with full competence but not always with the distinction that characterized the playing of the Finney or the Debussy. After a relaxed, intimate and finely co- ordinated first Allegro movement the work seemed divested of ease and consequently of the mood established at the start. The en- semble loosened a bit, and seemed in the fourth movement to for- sake clarity of tempo. Yet this was not enough to mar the total effect of a fully satisfying concert of quartet music. -L. L. Orlin I DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN WASHINGTON MERRY-GO-ROUND:xWe -BY DREW PEARSON W'HAT'S happening in the Near East may well be what Assist- ant Secretary of State George Al- len predicted when he tried, un- successfully, to dissuade Premier Nasser from the Czech arms deal. Allen warned that Israel would never sit still waiting for Egypt to get armed, would take the initia- tive. He also warned that the well- armed, determined little Israeli army could march right into Cairo. Nasser didn't listen. He's gone ahead with a new deal by which six Russian submarines plus ussian destroyers will go to Egypt. Meanwhile 200 jet fighters en route from Russia to Egypt are bogged down on Rumanian air- fields because neither Turkey, Greece nor Cyprus will give them refueling permits. Jets can't fly far without refueling. If the Pan American Union wants to continue as the dynamic force it was under the late Carlos Davila, it should bring ex-Ambas- sador Zuleta of Colombia back to Washington to replace Davila. For years the Union was a nice complacent organization to pro- mote stereopticon slides to wom- en's clubs and tropical parakeets in patios. Under Davila it became a dynamic force to stop war. Some Latin Americans would just as soon let it become compla- cent again. Ex-Ambassador Zuleta would not let that happen. John Foster Dulles will hand Marshal Tito an invitation to visit Washington when Dulles goes to Yugoslavia November 6. However, the invite won't be valid until after the 1956 elections. (Might be too much reaction from Italo- American voters.) Pardo Llada, the Cuban colum- nist who has been screaming at dictators for years, has now-be- lieve it or not-become enthusias- tic about Dictator Peron. Another Dictator, meanwhile, has become quite unenthusiastic about Peron. Franco of Spain has been warned by his army leadersbnot to let Peron take exile in Spain. Word has been sent to the deposed Ar- gentine that Peron might be hap- . pier in Portugal with Prince Um- berto of Italy. * * * WHEN SENATOR Stennis of Mississippi got home on a MATS government plane he felt rather unhappy about having taken his wife with him on that plane and offered to reimburse the govern- ment. The government said: "de- lighted." Mrs. McClelland of Arkansas, wife of the third traveling senator, did not come home on a govern- ment plane. When the bullabaloo broke about the two special air force planes ordered across the Atlantic for three senators, she went to the Spanish Air Line in Madrid and bought two commer- cial tickets for herself and hus- band. Senator McClelland, how- ever, declined. He said he hadn't done anything wrong and he would come home by MATS. He was on official business, he said, and he would occupy one seat in a regular transport plane. Mrs. McClelland insisted that she would come back commercial, so boarded the Spanish plane. Over the Atlantic, however, a mo- tor caught on fire, they had to turn back. No one was hurt, but Mrs. McClelland, shaken up by all these events, figures next time she'll just as soon stay home. Senator Welker, the Senate's junior McCarthy, has been going around Idaho trying to alibi for putting his relatives on the pay- roll. However, he's carefully omit- ting some of his relatives, among them his sister-in-law, Eloise Wel- ker, and his brother-in-law Neal D. Nelson, who used to work in Welker's office and for whom Her- man got a job as Regional Director of Land Management in Salt Lake City. Brother Ted Welker, an ex-truck driver, whom the senator put on the payroll at $5,200 a year, had nothing to do except sit in Idaho, answer a few letters and visit rela- tives in the East. When this col- umn called attention to Welker's nepotism, brother Ted resigned. Senator Welker has been touring Idaho in his own private plane-- only senator to my knowledge who has a private plane. * * * MORE AND more sentiment is building up among top Republi- cans for a Chief Justice Warren- Milton Eisenhower ticket. They be- lieve the chief justice would con- sent to run if asked personally by the President. Warren would have the South solidly against him because of his Supreme Court. opinion on segre- gation, but the Republicans figure on losing the South this time any- way. Warren, on the other hand, would win a lot of Democratic votes in the North. Milton Eisenhower, long-time new dealer under Henry Wallace, was once described by his brother Ike: "Milton has the brains in the family." * * .* Milton once described his broth- er Ike to Secretary of the Interior Ickes: "He's not too smart, but he's wonderful at getting a lot of people together and making them agree." The President has some- times said privately that the best possible man to take over the White diouse kis Gen. Al Gruenther, his chief of staff in Paris, now head of SHAPE. Gruenther has the admiration of every American who has watch- ed him in Paris-plus European leaders. However, it's doubtful the GOP convention would go for an- other military man at this time.

To the Editor: AS a foreign student at the Uni- versity of Michigan, I have, in my short tenure at this Univer- sity, become partly accustomed to the sometime strange manner of the students here. However, I still can not grow used to the hissing and sometimes hooting that these students dis- play at the Ann Arbor theaters, It seems to me that men and wo- men of the supposedly high cali- ber that we like to believe attend the University, would have more personal restraint and respect for another person's endeavor. I will admit that your Ameri- can producers often times over dramatize, but we, as the upper intelligencia, so to speak, should knowhow to criticize in an adult manner. Let us all try to re- member our status in Ann Arbor before we demonstrate how low we can really get. Let us remember that the Mi- chigan Man is a fine man and to act accordingly is our responsi- bility as students. --Ivar Konstieczny, '59 practices perhaps he would prefer one where there is no choice of candidates not even by "spin the. coffin" method. Mr. Eisenhower has not been deified. He has merely been given the respect due him and the office he represents. We are certain Mr. Kelly would never admit that Franklin Roosevelt was deified but certainly he was given respect and honor, more so than most presi- dents. The same holds true of Washington and Lincoln but they are not deified and never will be --Patricia Hanes, '59 and others Questions Reasoning... To the Ediotr: ARE THE standards of the Uni- versity going down? Anyone reading the ridiculous comments of Arthur Hawley in The Daily would be inclined to believe so. How any- one could get through two years of college life and still show such asinine reasoning and thinking is beyond me. Not only does he "talk through his hat," but he has the audacity
