Romney Says ) y Bootlegging' SWidespread WASHINGTON (3) - An auto- mobile manufacturer testified yes- terday that "blitz selling, price packing, dishonest or misleading advertising, and bootlegging," are widespread in the new car busi- ness. "Gee, there's been a lot of dis- honest advertising," he exclaimed at one point. "It's just revolting." The retail car business appraisal came from George Romney, presi- dent of American Motors Corp., which makes Hudson and Nash cars. He was the first witness called at a Senate Commerce subcommit- tee investigation of automobile marketing. "Blitz selling" is a heavily pro- moted sale' in which a dealer an- nounces he 4s disposing of a large number of cars at cut-rate prices. Romney said he believes many buyers are developing a "customer beware" attitude s a result of "horse trading practices that have characterized new cars selling in the postwar period." Romney said dealers had com- plained to him that "bootlegging" has turned automobile selling into "a cutthroat business."

At Kolhapur, 250 miles to the south, police fired into a mob of 30,000, injuring many. There was no offiical count of dead there. As the unprecedented surge of anti-Nehru violence entered its fifth day, mobs forced the resignation of at least one city's councilman as part of a general siege campaign against the government. Report Mass Resignation The first reported mass resignation was at Poona. Authorities declared Communists are exploiting and helping to spread the violence that began last Monday as a rebellion against ^Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru's decision to federalize the City of Bombay. Official casualty figures showed more than 40 persons killed in the 'WV ill D ecide first four days,. In two isolated city incidents o Thursday, two looters carrying Come bags of grain were shot dead in C othe -streets and a police constable was stoned to death by rioters.

Language Groups Fight The two communities are the Marathi-speaking people number- ing about 30 million iii southern Bombay State and the less num- erous Gujerati-speaking people of the northern part. Marathi speaking Indians, who number about 1,500,000 in the city, want this to be the capital of their new state under a realignment of state boundaries that will more nearly conform with the language barriers of the many-tongued In- dian Republic. The Gujerati- speaking Bombay people generally are for keeping the city apart from any state-the view Nehru has adopted. The influential Bombay chief minister belongs to the Gu- jerati community.

Eisenhower Lauds Dulles In Conflict Hints 'Unfortunate' Expressions Used WASHINGTON (A') - President Dwight D. Eisenhower stood by Secretary of State John Foster Dulles in the "brink of war" con- troversy yesterday. He said he has complete faith in Secretary Dulles as a skillful diplomat devoted to peace and "the best secretary of state I have ever known." But the President suggested "un- fortunate expressions" might have been used in a controversial Life magazine article entitled "How Dulles Averted War." He said he didn't know whether such expres- sions were used by Secretary Dulles or the article's author, James Shepley, Washington bureau chief for Time-Life. President Eisenhower spoke up at his first Washington news con- ference since his illness. He re- fused, just as Secretary Dulles did at a news conference two days ago, to discuss the Life article in detail-indeed,dthe President said he had not read it. Said Dules Averted War The story quoted Secretary Dul- les as saying "the ability to get to the brink of war" without being "drawn into it is the necessary art." It said Secretary Dulles three times averted war - in Korea, Indochina and Formosa. A story of criticism, especially from Democrats in Congress but also from this country's allies abroad, has been beating about Secretary Dulles' ears since the article came out a week ago. Some Democrats, including Adlai Steven- son, had urged President Eisen- hower to repudiate the article or fire Secretary Dulles. He did neither. As to the idea o going to the brink of war, President Eisenhower declared his policy is to wage peace But he said this is based upon "principles of decency and justice and right" - not a peace- at-any-price concept such as the Allies took with them to the pre- war meeting with Hitler at Mun- ich. Would Go To Congress President Eisenhower said that might be interpreted as being at the brink of something since the Communists can always react as they think best to the West's diplomacy. But should the ques- tion of war actually come up, he said he would go before Congress to say what he believes should be done. President Eisenhower refused to reply on specific points raised by the magazine article because he said: It is not proper to discuss Na- tional Security Council mattets and in any event, he would not handle such delicate matters casu- ally but rather with a carefully prepared statement. Asks Others To Announce Race Entry No Decision Yet On Future Plans WASHINGTON (A') - President Dwight D. Eisenhower said yester- day he hasn't decided about a second term, and he issued a vir- utal invitation to all GOP hope- fuls to plunge into the race for the nomination. . Nobody jumped at the invitation --with Eisenhower himself still a potential candidate. The President decided to leave his name in the New Hampshire or any other presidential primary in which it may be entered. But he said this doesn't mean he will run. In fact, President Eisenhower told a news conference-the first full-scale one since his Sept. 24 heart attack-he hasn't reached even a tentative decision on his political future. When he does make up his mind, he said, the decision will be "based as to my best Judgment on the good of our country" and will be announced' immediately, President Eisenhower tossed out some political teasers for newsmen and politicians to toy around with. He said that while his doctors tell him he is making normal and satisfactory progress toward a rea- sonable level of strength, "it would be idle to pretend that my hgealth can be wholly restored.. ." "My future life must be care- fully regulated to avoid excessive fatigue," he said. At his last previous Washington news conference Aug. 4, before the heart seizure, the President said his health would be a factor in his second term decision. At yesterday's packed session with reporters, the chief executive said every citizen should have the "widest possible choice": in ex- pressing his preference as to the nominee. He thus gave Sen. Wil- liam F. Knowland of California and any other Republican as- pirants a clear field for hopping into the ,string of primaries start- ing with, the one in New Hamp- shire March 13. -Daily-John Hirtzei HEAVY SNOW FAILS TO STOP STUDYING AT MAIN LIBRARY Cam us Snowe by SnoW Flurries Wsconsin Students ]protest Discrimination in Housing' By TED FRIEDMAN Almost one-third the students at the University of Wisconsin have signed a mammoth petition calling for the end of discrimina- tion in university-approved housing, it was announced this week. A total of 4,809 students-over twice the number who voted in Wisconsin's last student eletion-signed the petition which urged university president Edwin B. Fred to "immediately and vigorously" enforce the university's policies against segregation. "Over 80 per cent of those approached signed," Frank Chalk, petition chairman said. "I only wish we had a chance to reach all the students." The petition demonstrated the "overwhelming support of the student body for a vigorous anti-* discrimination program," he stat- HEALTH INADEQUATE ed. J. By JIM ELSMAN The snow is snowing - the wind is blowing - and the campus is "snowed" by the storm. I "More of the same and Inter- mittent flurries" is forecasted by the weatherman's crystal ball at Ypsilanti. This "more" will lie atop the 6 inches that greeted the town this morning. Temperature-wise, no variations are expected from yesterday's 26 degrees. Topic of Conversation On campus, people certainly aren't reluctant to express opinion on one subject-that's the weather. These choice manifestations of' intellectual freedom were heard- "snowfall lulls me into a day- dreaming mood and with exams coming - ," "I was ready for spring," "It excites me," "Beware of the 'sidewalk brush'," and "Cab- erfae, here I come." One student, after r'pparent scholarly meditation, ambiguously said, "This is one of the finest U Judiciary Won't Handle 'Hand' Case Incidents arising from catsup- smeared hands in automobile trunks during school recesses are not within University jurisdiction. At least this was the opinion of the Office of Student. Affairs, which announced yesterday they would not submit to Joint Judi- ciary the case of a prank involv- ing two University students. The case occurred during Christ- mas vacation when the two stu- dents, aided by two friends from Northwestern and Princeton, drove through Ann Arbor with one of the students hanging his catsup- streaked arm from the car's trunk. Reports of the "bloody hand" touched off an hour-long police manhunt Dec. 26, resulting in ap- prehension of the three criminals and their "victim." Perplexed by the case in which neither local police nor residents pressed charges, the Office of Stu- dent Affairs decided, after discus- sion, not to refer the case to Joint Judic for action.

Students Snowed Under In the "fishbowl," a student, his hair beaded with melted snow, drew a parallel-"It reminds me of exams-snowed under."

E" I i The announcement marked theI end of a five-week campaign to collect signatures on the petition. The next step, according to leaders of the petition circulation, will be the formal presentation of the petition signatures to the presi- dent. "I hope the university officials will weigh carefully this large ex- pression of student opinion against discrimination," John Kelsh, pres- ident of the Men's Hall association, said. Former Pan-Hellenic president Helen Rehbein stressed the educa-, tional value of the campaign. The program, she said, "represents a wonderful effort" and "a step to- ward making the university a more truly democratic institution which lives up to its ideals." "We know the policy of the re- gents, we know the feelings of the faculty, we have the resolution of the Student Senate, and now we have this expression of student sentiment. College Student Survey Says Ike Will Not Run A nation-wide poll of college students on the question of whether President Dwight D. Eisenhower will run for a second term showed a decided majority saying he will not. Opinions on why he will decline centered around the health prob- lem concerned with his recent heart attack. The poll, conducted by the Associated Collegiate Press as "a representative cross-section" of students breaks down like this: Yes, he will run, 26 per cent; no, he will not run, 63 percent; undecided, 11 per cent. Individual reasons for his declining are rather disparate. Here are some typical answers: Ike Won't Run "I think that he won't run because he would put himself and the country in a precarious position" a senior attending the University of Arkansas said. "If elected, he knows he would have to do an even more in- complete job than he is now doing-or he would be committing suicide" a Syracuse University senior observed. TRUE FISH STORY: Physicoloical Approach ogCauses Mass Confusion Raised eyebrows appeared in the departments of fisheries, zoology and psychology when they read the topic for Professor Shelby D. Gerking's lecture yesterday as "Psychological Approach to Fish Pro- duction." When Prof. Gerking, associate professor at Indiana Univeisity, wired the title of his topic to Professor John Bardach of the fisheries department, Western Union office mistook the word "physicological" for "psychological." Informs Psychology Department Prof. Bardach received the wire and then informed the psychology department, thinking they would be interested. But, they were disappointed. Prof. Kerking lectured at 4:15 p.m. yesterday in the Natural Science auditorium on his planned topic "The Physicological Approach to Fish Production." This was a summary of his work which led to the George Mercer award in ecology for 1955 presented to him by FBA Reviews Fuel, Produce Savings Plan A plan to give fraternities sub- starntial savings on fuel oil, coal, and produce was introduced and reviewed last night in Fraternities Buying Association's Board of Directors meeting. Adrian Williams, '57, who sub- mitted the plan, said FBA would make contracts for the 39 member fraternities with individual deal- ers for coal, fuel oil, and produce. Because the dealers would be guaranteed such a large increase in volume they would be able to give bigger discounts to the fra- ternities. Hank Aughey, '56, chairman said the plan would be submitted to the reward's Council at their next eeting. Discuss Warehouse A proposal to buy their pwn warehouse in Ann Arbor was aain discussed. John Morrow, '56, presented sev- eral- possible locations but nothing definite was decided on this issue by the board. Since the purchase and employ- ment of a warehouse would create a new expense for redistributing food to the fraternities, the board felt it necessary to investigate fur- ther to see if the expense could be covered by profits from the ware- house.
