No National Elections/ To Be Held;
Shakeup Probable in Party Cabinet
LONDON (T)-Bristling with confidence, Harold Macmillan took.
over as .prime "minister yesterday, and opened the way for early talks
with :President Dwight D. Eisenhower to heal the rift in British-
American relations.
There were indications the White House was dusting off the
"welcome" mat denied Sir Anthony Eden after the Suez invasion.
Washington officials; said Macmillan will be welcome whenever
he decides to visit President Eisenhower, a long-time friend.
Macmillan served notice he will not call national elections, as the
Labor party has demanded. But it seems certain there will be a

New Policy
In Mid-East
DAMASCUS (A)-Syria's gov-
ernment yesterday declared its
"deep-goted belief" that mainte-
nance of peace ad security Hi the
Middle East is "solely the respon-
sibility of the peoples of this
area."
The government issued a state-
ment on President Dwight D.
Eisenhower's speech on Middle
East policy to the United States
Congress, saying Syria rejects "the
theory of a power vacuum in the
Middle East."
It described as "serious" Presi-
dent Eisenhower's request for
standby authority to send United
States troops agains aggression in
the area.
It asserted there is no Commu-
nist threat in Syria.
The Syrian statement, however,
welcomed the Eisenhower an-
nouncement of "American all-out
support of full sovereignty.and the
complete independence of Middle
East nations."
It then stated Syria's rejection
of the theory that the economic
interest of any power or group of.
powers granted a right to inter-
vene in the affairs of his area to
protect those interests.
IFC Fines
Phi KapaITan
Phi Kappa Tau fraternity was
fined $75 last night by Interfra-
ternity Council Executive Com-
mittee for conducting pledging
activities off fraternity house
grounds, according to Tim Leedy,
'58, president.
The fine was reduced to $50
because it was the group's first
offense.
Fraternity actives had taken
the leader of a pledge raid and
left him on road outside Ann Arbor
dressed in his pajamas with mus-
tard rubbed in his hair, early in
December.
They were fined not only because
of poor publicity their action
brought the fraternity system, but
because they endangered the safe-
ty and welfare of the student.
Two foreign students have been
placed in fraternity houses for
next semester, Leedy reported. Er-
hard Lipman, from the free Uni-
versity of Berlin will live in Trigon
and Tom Kano from the Univer-
sity of Kyoto in Japan will live at
the Pi Lambda Phi house.

Selwyn Lloyd
One of the casualties of the
Eden regime is likely to be Foreign
Secretary Selwyn Lloyd. He is
identified in British minds as one
of the masterminds who counted
on the Suez invasion to topple, not
strengthen, President Gamal Ab-
del Nasser of Egypt.
Mentioned as a possible suc-
cessor is Duncan Sandys, who, as
supply ,minister, has been chief,
government administrator of Brit-
ain's atomic program.
He is a son-in-law of Sir Win-
ston Churchill.
Macmillan supported the Egyp-
tian invasion, but did not fall heir
to all the criticism that centered
on Eden. And many Conservatives,
in urging Macmillan for the post.
over Conservative party leader
Richard A. Butler, apparently felt
that the -party cause would be
served best by naming a man who
did not in effect renounce Eden's
works.
London Papers
Butler, long pictured as out of
sympathy with Eden's decision to
use force in Egypt, had been ac-
cepted by most London papers and
many politicians as Eden's likely
successor.
Queen Elizabeth II called in
Churchill and the Marquess of
Salisbury, another Conservative
stalwart, yesterday to advise her.
Shortly afterward she asked

chequer, to take over the duties

calling a general election.

Committee to Probe
Hungarian Revolution
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. T)')--
A special truth committee to
investigate the tragedy of Hun-
gary's abortive revolution was cre-
ated yesterday by the United
Nations General Assembly despite
Soviet refusal to cooperate in any
manner.
The Assembly voted 59-8 for a
resolution introduced by the
United States and 23 other United
Nations members setting up a
committee composed of Australia,
Ceylon, Denmark, Tunisia and
Uruguay.
The. committee was ordered to
search- out the facts anywhere it
could and report back as soon as
possible.
It cannot go TIside Hungary nor
any. Red-bloc country since Mos-
cow continued its stubborn policy
of qefying UN actions and resolu-
tions on Hungary.
Ten countries abstained on the
vote. Cuba was one, insisting the
action was not nearly strong
enough to meet the situation. The
other abstaining were Afghanistan,
Egypt, Finland, India, Jordan,
Saudi Arabia, Sudah, Syria and
Yugoslavia.
Hungary was absent from the
entire debate, continuing its boy-
cott of the Assembly when it deals
with the Hungarian revolution..
eshe was driving collided with a
car driven by Charles Mcfllwaln
of Wyandotte.
Corp. George Burnette, of the
State Police said the roads were
"clear for the most part."
The Ann Arbor Department of
Public Works is using 17 snow
plows, all of their trucks and
loaders, even renting trucks and
pressing fire trucks into'service to
clear Ann Arbor streets.
StateSt. Cleared.
According to Fred E. Mammel,
asst. superintendent of public
works, State Street should be
cleared today.
Despite the slippery conditions,
Health Service reported fewer ac-
cident injuries than normal yes-
terday.
Students managed to involve
themselves in a few escapades.
Members of a fraternity pledge
class packed snow around an ac-
tive's car making it a mound of
snow.
Car Missing
One student, befuddled by the
snow and the changed appearance
of his car, reported to the police
that his car was missing, even
phoning his insurance agent long
distance. The Ann Arbor police
found his cqr exactly where he
had parked it.
Sheepish, but glad his car
wasn't stolen, the student ad-
mitted he felt "pretty ridiculous."
Southern Michigan
The southern part of Michigan
was hard hit by the storm. A traf-
fic jam involving 200 stalled
trucks and as many automobiles
"developed on U.S. 31 between
Benton Harbor and Grand Haven.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. WP)-The
worst outbreak of violence since
the fight over bus segregation be-
gan left troubled Montgomery
without public transportation yes-
terday.
City ,auithorities halted bus serv-
ice indefinitely after assailants
bombed four Negro churches and
the homes of two antisegregation
ministers yesterday. No one was
reported injured.
The City Commission order sus-
pending bus operations "until fur-
ther notice" forced thousands; of
bus riders, both white and Negro,
to find other means of transpor-
tation.
Some walked. Others caught
rides or used taxicabs.
The City Commission formally
adopted a resolution at an emer-
gency meeting to prohibit further
bus service "until further action
of the commission."
In Atlanta six Negro ministers
who took seats in the white sec-
tion of an Atlanta Transit System
bus Wednesday were arrested yes-
terday on charges of violating
Georgia's segregation laws.
Taken to the Fulton County
jail, they quickly made bonds of
$1,000 each, and their attorney,
A. T. Walden, said the stage is
set for United States Supreme
Court review of state statutes re''
quiring racially separate seating
on busses.
Altay Dated
By U' Coed
University coed Pat Fischer,
'60N, told Ann Arbor police yes-
terday she had dated missing Uni-
versity student Erdogan Altay,
'58E, four times late last. year
and she "doesn't think that Altay
would take his own life".
Altay disappeared Monday aft-
er paying a debt owed to a friend.
His car was found abandoned the
next day at Niagara Falls.
Miss Fischer also revealed that
on Dec. 1 she received a letter
from Altay which she has turned
over to police. The letter, police
said, tells of Altay's plans for a
"party" where "Gabriel will be
the host and the spirit will be
separated from the soul."
Y u k s e 1 Mustecaple, Altay's
roommate< later stated that the
letter had been written by friends
of Altay's as a hoax.
Miss Fischer could not be
reached for further comment.

'Reckless, Perilous'
WASHINGTON () - Dean
Acheson, crackling with criticism,
said yesterday the Eisenhower ad-

it wants Congress to do about the

Acheson testified for nearly four
hours in a House Foreign Affairs'

block Red expansion in the Middle

"The interpretation Mr. Dulles
puts upon what he is asking
frightens me to death," Acheson
declared. He said Secretary of
State John Foster Dulles was in-
dulging in "reckless talk" '-that.
"sounds perilously like another
'approach. to the brink" of war.
The former secretary of state in
the' Truman administration lam-
basted President Dwight D. Eisen-
hower's proposals for standby
military authority and economic
aid. "Vague, uncertain and inade-
quate" were words he used to des-,
cribe them.
"Little New Ground"
He said they "break little new
ground and leave untouched great
areas in need of policy."
His caustic comments touched

Acheson said President Eisen-

MET TWICE SINCE INCEPTION:
SGC Request Started 'U' Calendar Committee
(Editor's Note: This is the second
in a series of articles on the Uni-
versity calendar. Today's article re-
views the student role on the calen-
daring committees and the work of
Student Government Council.)
By VERNON NAHRGANG
The initiative to set up the
present University committee on
the academic calendar came from
the Student Government Council
at its March 7, 1956' meeting.
Formulated at SGC's request,
the committee met twice last fall
and plans not to meet again until
the present calendar has been in
use for at least three semesters.
However, University students
had taken part in work on the
academic calendar prior to the re-
cent attempt to set up a standing
committee on the calendar.
Consequently, in May, 1956,
SGC requested Assistant to the
President Erich A. Walter "to es-
tablish a standing committee on
the University Academic Calen-
dar to include members from the
faculty, administration and stu-
dent body."
In support of the request, an
SGC statement said it "believes
that a great deal of controversy
has arisen . . . Many elements of
the, University community have
shown concern about this revi-
sion."
It laid out the functions of such
a committee as:
"1) Observations of the new
calendar in a working environ-
ment.
"2) Appraisal of the criticisms
directed toward the calendar.
"3) Re-examinationnnf the cal-
"We thought the first meeting
would be more of an organiza-
tional meeting," Givelber said
yesterday, "but the committee
was adjourned at this time.
"It was expressed by some oth-
ers during the meeting," he ex-
plained, "that some perspective
was needed and the calendar
should be discussed after not less
than three nor more than five
semesters.
Givelber Continued
"Evidently," Givelber contin-
ued, "the University didn't accept
the idea of a working committee
on the calendar. We had hoped at
least that the work of the pre-
vious committee would be made
available to us."
A second meeting of the com-
mittee was called unexpectedly,
However, Givelber has already
said he believes the three-semester
wait to discuss the calendar un-
necessary.
"The perspective isn't needed,"
he' said. - "We'll know as much
about it now as we will in three
years."~
Miss Strain, the second student
member of the calendar commit-
tee, indicated she thought the
students weren't being considered
in the schedule of the present cal-
endar.
Immediate Action
She, too, believes more imme-
diate action and study of the cal-
endar can be taken. "I don't think
the students will stand for it," she
noted.
Meanwhile, in lieu of the in-
action of the Universitv Canen
BAd., and Daily Editor Richard
Snyder, '57, has met once for-
mally.
Since then, Warrick explained,
the four have been working in-
dividually, "talking to people,
trying to gather information, try-
ing to decide on specific! recom-
mendations.
"The group :is not designed as
a final action committee, such as
the calendar committee," War-
rick stressed, "but a committee
that will recommend courses of
action to SGC."
SGC Group
Another SGC group, working
under the Campus Affairs com-
mittee, is planning a student
questionnaire which it hopes to
write in cooperation with Survey
Research Center and distribute to
