LXVII, No. 100 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1957 EIGHT PAGES President Faces Sanctions Hurdle Democrats, Sen. Knowland Oppose Any Economic Pressure On Israel WASHINGTON (R)-President Dwight D. Eisenhower sped back from a Georgia vacation yesterday to find himself and his adminis- tration caught in a terrific squeeze on the issue of sanctions for Is- rael: On one side was an increasing body of congressional opinion against punishing Israel 'for her refusal to withdraw from Egyptian territory wtihout nonaggression guarantees. On the other side, the Arab world - which the United States has been wooing in an attempt to block Communist expansion in th* Middle East - was crying for United Nations economic sanctions if Israel doesn't pull out. Two Developments There were two major developments in the squeeze yesterday: 1) A unanimous vote by the Democratic Policy Committee in the Senate against sanctions. Senator William F.

"The idea of the total sufficiency of our own nations is as strong as the belief of our own ego," she, warned. "It is the stumbling block of all our lives." In a. clipped stacatto style, the sixth Lecture Series speaker called for international inspection of waterways, "even the Panama Canal," as proof that the United State's declarations are more than lip service to compromise. Concepts 'Tattered' The British economist chal- lenged the validity of several con- cepts which "after the events of last autumnn are .. every single one a bit tattered at the edges.", oWe must break away from the ideal of a single, Moscow-control- led bloc of Communist states, she said, "and recognize a new factor of plural Communist powers, less likely to be directed from Moscow." Harvard's visiting lecturer be- lieves that it is "nonsense" that the China of 1980-bloated with a population of a billion-will be controlled by the Kremlin. Graer Danger to USS and other members of his party, already have expressed opposi- tion to sanctions. 2) A declaration by Foreign Minister Charles Malik of Leba- non that sanctions would be de- manded in the UN tomorrow and he hoped the United States would support the move. Malik spent an hour with Assis- tant Secretary of State William Rountree going over the Arab po- sition. Afterwards he told re- porters: "In the opinion of the whole Arab world, and indeed of the whole world, Israel must with- draw unconditionally." Dulles Waits President{ Eisenhower went di- rectly from the airport to the White House to grapple with the multiplying Middle Eastern prob- lems. Waiting for him there was Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, who earlier in the day had given Israel assurances that the United States considers the Gulf of Aqaba is an international wa- terway. The Democratic decision on sanctions was announced in the Senate by Majority Leader Lyn- don Johnson of Texas. He said the policy committee voted to ask that the U.S. delegation to the UN oppose any move to impose economic penalties on Israel, while other nations which have ignored UN orders go unpunished. Secretary Dulles discussed the Gulf of Aqaba at his news con- ference. Since it is an interna- tional waterway, he said, Egypt has no right to interfere with the innocent passage of Israeli ships, American vessels or those of oth- er nations. LANSING-University President Harlan Hatcher yesterday hinted to the Senate AppropriationshCom- mittee that the self-liquidating system of residence halls may have outlived its usefulness. "I think we're going to have to do more than we have in the area of aid to housing," Hatcher told the legislators. Otherwise, the University may have to reject students "because they can't find a place to live." He suggested more explicit ideas may come later in deliberations on this year's budget. Hatcher cited support which Maine, among other states, has recently given to college housing. His remarks came as part of discussion on selection of Univer- sity students. Hatcher startled leg- islators with a statement that one- half to two-thirds of "qualified" high-school students are not going to college. "The thing we musn't let hap- pen is let selection be on the basis of economic factors," he concluded, citing such factors as the major drawback for most qualified stu- dents who do not go to college. From this standpoint Hatcher praised the University's scholar- ship program and made another plea for low tuition rates. And he also asked that housing not be allowed to join economic factors as an obstacle to selection of stu- dents on the basis of academic competence.

Elmer Porter bases arguments for increased student fees on this chart, which shows a negligible increase in tuition payments in the face of greatly increased appropriations and enrollments. University administrators reply that 1947, the base year for the chart's comparisons, was one of abnormally high fees due to the influx of veterans heavily subsidized by the federal government. Figures are for all state-supported colleges except Wayne State University. IFC Seeks Exemption From Taxes In an effort to gain tax exemp- tion for affiliate groups under the Michigan Employment Security Act, Inter-fraternity Council has had a legislative amendment sub- mitted to committees of the state Senate. State Senator Lewis G. Christ- man (R-Ann Arbor) presented the amendment to the Senate last week, Assistant Dean of Men Wil- liam Cross said. Under present conditions fra- ternities and sororities are liable to a tax on all their employees. William Conlin, an Ann Arbor lawyer working with the Council, explained that prior to 1956, fra- ternities and sororities were exempt from state tax. The present act exempts "do- mestic service in a private home," and the proposed amendment calls for the addition of "local college club or local chapter of a college fraternity or sorority." Conlin said the proposal has been referred to committee study, and should come before the Sen- ate in the near future. He estimated the tax would ini- tially cost each fraternity from $250 to $300 a year and later al- most twice as much. $350,000 PROPOSED: Legislature To Consider Human Research Funds I "Some of the pressures of this erpanded power are certain to be Minister Stresses Fa it of greater danger to Russia than to the United States," she pre- dicted.

By WILLIAM HANEY If the University receives an appropriation from the state leg- islature for research and develop- ment of human resources, 1957 will be the second year state funds have been allocated for this pur- pose. The legislature, in April, 1956, appropriated $300,000 to develop studies which "will make a funda- mental contribution to the success- ful living" of the people of Mich- igan. Last month the University sub- mitted a request for an appropri- ation of $734,000 to continue and expand work in human resources in 1957-58. Governor Requests $350,000 The Governor's office studied the University proposal, and re- quested the state legislature to al- locate $350,000 for the project. Dental experts have been work- ing on solving storage problems that now stand in the way of tooth bank establishment. If this diffi- culty is overcome, prematurely lost or decayed teeth could be replaced. University engineers studied 4,- 000 accident reports and 30,000 pictures of traffic to find ways to reduce highway accidents. From these, dangerous stretches on the roads are determined and im- provements made. Human Adjustment experts have surveyed state convalescent hos- pitals and have concluded "step- ped-up activities and self-help for elderly patients" is the long-term objective in that field. Speech Clinic Project Speech Clinic is utilizing new techniques of showing illustrated cards and conveying the sound of the object on the card by ear- phones to stimulate youngsters who are slow in learning to speak. In Social Work, progress is be- ing made toward enabling mothers and children dependent on state aid to become self-sustaining. Studies have revealed independent families often enjoy a better standard of living than those under state aid. Work on mentally retarded children has been concentrated on testing non-retarded brothers and sisters of retarded children. Doc- tors can then determine which characteristics are natural to the children and which are results of conditions in his environment. Ed- ucation, training and care of the child can then be better deter- mined. J I 1 i i c f b v L F 0 1 r c t r t f x r t t f T 3 t t t 1 t c i Plan Failure Gets Varied- Comments By THOMAS BLUES Ann Arbor's defeated capital improvements plan drew varied comments yesterday from city of- ficials and a prospective municipal leader. Most outspoken in his comments was Prof. Samuel J. Eldersveld, Democratic candidate for mayor, who said, "It appears that these proposals were defeated because of inadequate leadership by the Mayor and City Council." Raymond C. Eastman, City Plan- ning director, seemed to be un- concerned over the defeat of the three million dollar bond issue program. When asked what he thought was the reason for the failure of the bond issues at the polls he answered, "I wouldn't have any idea. They just didn't want them, I guess." Moore Comments Prof. Arthur D. Moore, past City Council president, said the failure of the bond issues calls for edu- cation of the public on the bene- fits of capital improvements. Com- menting on Prof. Eldersvelds' judgment, he said shortly, "He doesn't know enough about it." City Administrator Guy C. Lar- corn said it is up to the Council to decide on any further action along the capital improvement line. There are ways open to the Council that would allow certain of the proposed bond issues to be implemented despite voter un- popularity. For example, storm sewers could be provided through special assessments. 'Too Early' Councilman Charles W. Joiner felt it is too early to see the long range effects of the bond issue defeat and the program, he said, will have to be completely re-ex- amined by the planning commis- sion. Mayor William E. Brown, Jr., who was nominated for his seventh city mayoralty race, was not happy over the outcome of the capital improvements program but said, "We will still get along." Mayor Brown left Ann Arbor yesterday to attend the United States Con- ference of Mayors in Washington, D. C. He will return late next week.

Members of the Senate Appro- priations Committee told him they thought the students should pe willing to do likewise, If the students are receiving a "superior product," Sen. Clarence Graebner (R-Saginaw) argued,, "their earning capacity is being increased and they should be will- ing to pay more." Spirited But Friendly After a day of spirited but friendly hearings on the Univer- sity's operating budget requests of $34,000,000, committee chairman Sen. Elmer Porter (R-Blissfield) told The Daily student fees have not kept pace with state- educa- tional appropriations. Sen. Porter produced a chart to back up his contention that there has been almost no increase in statewide student fees despite tripling of legislative appropria- tions. Copies are to be given to every member of the legislature., State-subsidized schools with their low tuition rates may be driving smaller, privately owned colleges out of business, Sen. Por- ter commented. Part of the chairman's agru- ment was anticipated in the hear- ings by University Vice-President for Financial Affairs Wilbur Pier- pont, who presented a chart of his own to the committee, this one showing that fees now contribute 20 per cent of the costs of the Uni- versity. They contributed 19 per cent in 1920. "Over a period of time fees have been increased to maintain about the same proportion to total costs," Vice-President Pierpont argued. 1948 Fees a Record Fees in 1948 contributed to a record high of 42 per cent of op- erating costs, he pointed out, but attributed this to peak veterans enrollments under the GI Bill of Rights. "It was essentially a fed- eral government contribution," with Congress appropriating $500 per veteran student to the Univer- sity. Arguing from the same facts, Vice President and Dean of Fac- ulties Marvin Niehuss said later that 1947, which Porter's chart uses as a base year, was."not a normal situation for the fee-ost relationship" throughout Michigan education. Vice-PresidentNiehuss said he could see "no danger at al' of state-supported schools bankrupt- ing Michigan's private colleges. "The most expensive schools in the country turn away the highest number of students." 100,000 More Vice-President Niehuss' presen- tation to the committee, in which he argued for higher faculty sal- aries, was premised on an expected enrollment increase for Michigan colleges of 100,000 over the next ten years. At present ratios, he contended, 8,000 new college tech. ers and about 4,000 replacements would be needed. But the state will grant only 5,000 doctorate degrees during the period if present rates continue. During the hearings much inter- change centered over out-of-state students, who constitute about one-third of the University's en- rollment. Legislators questioned again and again the justification for support df over $1,000 per non- resident student. Niehuss warned against raising out-of-state tuition so high as to lose those students as a source of revenue and defended their nres- atellite Displayed at Rackham Building By MICHAEL KRAFT Man's steppingstone to space travel is on campus.
