LXVII, No. 103 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1957 SIX PAGES Williams Proposes Profit Tax Proposed Budget Exceeds Resources LANSING ()-Gov. G. Mennen Williams, as he often has before, yesterday proposed a corporation profits tax to put state government finances back on an even keel. Such a levy at the rate of six per cent, coupled with two other tax law changes, would net the state an additional 76 million dol- lars and provide the wherewithal for a 411 million dollar spending program in 1957-58, he said. In a special message to the leg- islature, the Governor rejected as- sorted other taxing possibilities as K a solution, including a state tax on personal incomes, which he de- nounced in strong language. Republicans Discuss Tax The income tax has been talked up in recent weeks by Republicans. The lawmakers had scattered for the weekend when the tax message was distributed, and there were no Republican leaders on hand to examine the Williams Plan and comment on it immediately. The Governor's budget calls for expenditures 80.6 million dollars above estimated general fund out- go for the fiscal year ending June ~'30, and 75 million dollars beyond anticipated 1957-58 resources. In a second recommendation on taxation, the Governor called for repeal of the existing corporation franhise tax, which covers some- what th same field as the profits tax but is based on net worth. In a third, he asked foregive- ness of the first $50 liability under the business activities tax. This, he said, would spell complete ex- emption for about 25,000 small en- terprises each with annual gross receipts of less than $36,000. He said the corporation profits tax could be expected to yield 132 million dollars, Revenue Loss Franchise tax repeal would mean a revenue loss of 52% million dol- lars, and the business activities tax exemption feature another 3/2 million loss, leaving a net rev- enue gain of 76 million dollars. He said his program would raise the money needed without "un- due hardship" on any corporation or individual, and would tend to mitigate inequities that now un- fairly burden small and new busi- nesses. Anticipating a "chorus of pro- tests for specialhinterests," the Governor said there would be based for the most part on "false and destructive propaganda" that business is being driven out of the state. Such talk, he said, tends to frighten away business faster than actual taxes. Senate Finds More Union Records Gone, Big Ten Agrees, On AidProgram Plan Limits Aid To Basic Expenses; Parents To File Financial Statement By The Associated Press CHICAGO - Big Ten faculty representatives yesterday gave fi- nal approval to a new financial aid program for conference athletes. The aid program had reportedly received divided approval from the faculty representatives in December. No breakdown was an- nounced on yesterday's vote although William Reed, assistant Big Ten commissioner, said "there were some dissents." While there was no official word, University representatives re- portedly supported the plan. The main points of the aid program are that it is based on, proven individual need and that the aid would be limited to the Japanese Premwier Il, Set To Quit T O K Y O (IP) -Japan's two month-old government decided to resign yesterday because of the prolonged illness of 72-year-old Prime Minister Tanzan Ishibashi. After repeated huddles Thurs- day night and 'again yesterday the leaders of the ruling Liberal-Dem- ocratic party reached the decision following a report from a commit- tee of four doctors that the Prime Minister must have at least two more months to recover from a bout with pneumonia. Japan's newspapers predicted that Foreign Minister Nobusuke Kishi, who has been acting prime minister, would be chosen by the party to head a new government. Kishi is more pro-Western that Ishibashi, who wanted to open up more trade with Red China and contended Japan was not treated as an equal by the United States. World News SRoundup By The Associated Press 'Prin e Philip'&. . LONDON-Queen Elizabeth III yesterday gave her husband the title of "The Prince Philip." The action was an indication of the Queen's affection and her confidence in him. No man born outside the royal family has held such a title in the British mon- archy's history. He was born Prince Philip of Greece, but renounced the title to by plain Lt. Philip Mountbatten, a naturalized British subject, be- fore his engagement to Elizabeth. Before their wedding in 1947 King George VI raised him to the peerage with the title of Duke of Edinburgh. Britons went on call- ing him Prince Philip, but the title lacked official significance. * * P 'Pseudo-Liberals' * * * 'amount needed to provide an ath- lete with room, board, books, tui- tion and fees. These vary according to the schools and range from about $1,- 000 to $1,800 a year. There is also a requirement that an athlete's parents would have to file a financial statement. Some educators had objected to this requirement, dscribing it as an invasion of privacy., The faculty representatives met in a joint session with conference athletic directors. In other action, they voted to recommend gnat the conference vote in favor of the 1957 Nation- al Collegiate Athletic Association plan for televising football. Reed said a separate agency will be set up to process. the fi-. nancial aid program and super- vise it. This agency will determine the degree of financial aid, but the aid itself will be administered by the individual schools. The commission itself will act as a policing agency to watch for possible violations. The plan de- tails penalties for violations - penalties which have been de- scribed as the toughest in Big Ten history. These provide that once a boy accepts a grant from one school he never can be eligible for anoth- er if he transfers. The boy would be ruled ineli- gible forever in the conference by accepting under-the-table aid. A coach or other staff member offering or paying such secret aid would be fired and barred from ever working in the conference again. A school failing to take such disciplinary measures would be ordered to show cause why it should not be suspended or ex- pelled. No dollars and cents breakdown was given for what the aid pro- gram will cost the schools yearly. The aid is limited to 100 ath- letes in each school. i E Fund Drive Reviews Aims "The personal approach" will be used in the May 5-11 Campus Chest fund-raising drive, accord- ing to Tim Felisky, '58E, drive chairman. Felisky explained at a recent meeting of Campus Chest that students will be contacted by drive representatives living in their respective residence halls, fraternities, or sororities. The meeting was held to review the purposes and programs of the' unified drive. Participating in the Campus Chest discussion were representatives from World Uni- versity Service, Assembly, Free University of Berlin Exchange Student Program, Panhellenic, Junior Inter-Fraternity Council, and the Union. Felisky explained to the group that the purpose of .Campus Chest is "to bring various fund-raising drives under one unified effort and to spare students the annoy- ance of constantly being ap- proached by numerous separate drives." Romp, Roll NEW YORK (P)-Wild, dun- garee clad teen-agers by the thousands stormed the Para- mount Theater yesterday for a rock 'n' roll show. They smashed glass, danced bare foot in the aisles and their ecstatic screams at times drowned out the savage beat of the music that held them in sway. Two girls were slightly in- Ijured in the jostling mob out- side the big theater on Times Square. Others had shoes, scarves and other articles of clothing ripped from their bodies in the crush. Many wept - but persevered. A hundred and seventy-five police were hard put to main- tain even a semblance of con- trol. From early morning until mid-afternoon the movie house was packed with 3,700 boys and girls, unwilling to leave and bent on staying through performance after perform- ance. The stage show featured Alan Freed, a local disc jockey who specializes in the rhyth- mic rock 'n' roll beat. Hale Says Quads Have Vacancies By RICHARD TAUB There are now about 100 vacan- cies in men's residence halls due to a decrease in room applications following the December food riot. Jack Hale, senior resident direc- tor, reported that this decrease is unusual for this time of year. There is usually some drop off about Dec. 1, he explained, but not as much as there has been this year. Due to Accounts Hale expressed the opinion that the slack might have been due in part to the newspaper accounts of the food disturbance. He also said "as one member of the residence hall conference com- mittee," the vacancy situation has made it harder to let people break their contracts. Those released were done so "strictly on the merits" of their cases and would have been releas- ed whatever the situation, Hale ex- plained. However, some men who wished to move into fraternity houses, he continued, might have been re- leased if residence halls really ha been crowded. Possible Overestimation Hale expressed the belief that announced doubling-up in the residence halls may have been ex- aggerated. Expansion for about 450 students may have been an over-estimation, due to the declin- ing interest in the residence halls. "We were told 700 extra students would live in the residence halls next year, about 450 of them men." However, Hale added, this was little more than a guess. East Quadrangle is almost fin- ished with its doubling-up re- ports, he explained, and in West Quadrangle one house has to be adjusted. By Easter vacation the admin- istration should have worked out a nearly-accurate figure, he added. Change Urged In Food Laws WASHINGTON (P) - A cancer researcher's statement that dan- gerous dyes and chemicals are being used in food for human consumption was disputed yester- day night by the Food and Drug Administration. Deputy Commissioner John L. Harvey said the agency knows of no. substance being used in foods that would produce tumors or cancer.J Ask Israeli Sanctions U.S. Awaits UN Debates New Israeli Withdrawal Statement WASHINGTON () -President Dwight D. Eisenhower and Secre- tary of State John Foster Dulles decided yesterday to await a new message from Premier David Ben- Gurion before determining their next move on the question.of sanc- tions against Israel. President Eisenhower and Dulles conferred for 90 minutes at the White House on the stubborn crisis revolving around Israel's refusal to pull its troops out of territory cap- tured from Egypt last fall. Drastic Revision An announcement by White House press secretary James C. Hagerty after the conference made it clear that in spite of Ben- Gurion's rejection of presidential appeals, President Eisenhower and Dulles still hope for drastic revis- ion of Israeli policy which would result in withdrawal of the forces. The two men conferred by tele- phone with Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr. at the United Na- tions. Hagerty said they talked about "the presentation to the United Nations of the United States position." No Presentation No presentation will be made, Hagerty said, until after Ambas- sador Abba Eban had had an op- portunity to meet with Dulles. Eban left Jerusalem yesterday and is due back in Washington to- day. He is expected to meet with Dulles immediately and to see him again tomorrow if a further talk this weekend appears to be nec- essary. In the fast developing situation the day brought these other events: 1. British leaders in London pro- fessed continuing concern about the threat to American-British re- lations inherent in the differing views toward the Israeli troop is- sue. Some Guarantees The British are cold toward sanctions and would like to see Is- rael get some of the guarantees it wants for its interests in the Gaza Strip and the Gulf of Aqaba. 2. At Paris, Premier Guy Mollet declared that France is giving Is- rael aid and "will continue to give all we can." This attitude is the exact oppo- site of the United States which suspended aid to Israel about the' time of the British-French-Israel attack on Egypt last fall Israeli Party May Bolt JERUSALEM (A') - The third largest party in Premier David Ben Gurion's government threat- ened yesterday to bolt if he car- ries out his heavily condition pro- mise to surrender the Gaza and Aqaba coastal strips. Ben-Gurion may run into seri- ous difficulty in getting a vote of confidence Monday in the Knes- set. In a reply to President Dwight D. Eisenhower in a speech co the Knesset Thursday night, Ben- Gurion defied a threat of UN sanctions, but said Israel would pull back her last invasion forces from the Gaza Strip of Palestine and the Gulf of Aqaba if she re- ceived guarantees her interests would be protected. -Daily-Charles Curtiss MAXWELL SCORES-Michigan forward Wally Maxwell fires a shot past Michigan State goalie Joe Selinger for the Wolverines' third goal of the first period in last night's game at East Lansing.

The phrase, which President out of third. .eThe Wolverines surged to a 4-1 lead in the first period, only to see it almost vanish as the Spartans came roaring back with goals in the remaining two periods. Dick Dunnigan started the scor- ing with a shot that got by MSU's goalie, Joe Selinger, at 3:02 of the first period. The Spartans had previously dominated play but had been un- able to score. Dunnigan's goal broke the spirit of the host team for most of the remainder of the period as Michigan flicked in three Starr Scores Gary Starr, the big, fast-im- proving 'M' sophomore, got the next tally at the 7:51 mark. Skat- ing fast from the blue line, Starr feinted Spartan defenseman Bru- no Pollesel out of position, then skated in on goalie Selinger, flicking the puck into the corner of the net, out of Selinger's reach. Wally Maxwell got the first of hi. two goals at 11:34 He beat Selinger again at the 17.21 mark. With only 33 seconds to go in the first period, the host team fi- nally got past sophomore goalie Ross Childs. Bill MacKenzie scored on a rink-length pass from Ed Pollesel. Spartans Inspired The partisan crowd of 2,450 roared with approval. The Spar-1 tans from then on played inspired hockey. The second period was almost completely dominated by Michi- gan State. Only the stalwart de- fensive play of Bob Schiller and Bernie Hanna prevented the Spartans from scoring before over half the period had passed. Wingman Glenn MacDonald beat Childs with a shot that whizzed past the goalie's shoulder at 15:36. At 15:47, John Rendall was giv- en a two minute penalty, and with a man advantage, State struck again. Captain Bob Jasson scored this one at the 16:22 mark to pull the Spartans to within one goal of the visitors. See EARLY, Page 3 Race Bill Fails ATLANTA, Ga.

They have been on strike for 10 days. The back-to-work order from headquarters of the striking In- ternational Longshoremen's As- sociation was held up most of the day for a tabulation of a New York vote on a proposed new contract. Late in the day, ILA President William V. Bradley set the return to work deadline after it was an- nounced that New York dockers favored the new contract 6,829 to 4,017. The 'vote appeared to be the final obstacle to resumption of dock work. Contract deadlocks in Baltimore and Norfolk were set- tled overnight. All other ports had come to terms earlier. The strike, which began Feb. 12 as a renewal of last November's government-interrupted nine-day walkout, has cost an estimated 30 million dollars in losses to ship- pers and industry., Wilson Asks Guard Support For Program PHILADELPHIA A-Secretary his recent "draft-dodger" state- ment still a subject of heated de- bate, yesterday paid a visit to a National Guard unit to make a formal plea for support of the six months training program for guard units. Wilson last month stirred up angry comment among guards- men when he said that some! youths joined the National Guard to avoid the draft during the Korean War. Fronm Gaza Egypt Will Accept UTN Troops in Strip By The Associated Press UNITED NATIONS, N.Y.-The 27 Asian and African members of the United Nations yesterday agreed to support a resolution call- ing for sanctions against Israel. The action came at a private meeting just before the 80-nation General Assembly began a new round of debate on Israel's failure to get out of the Gaza Strip and the Sharm El Sheikh area, on the Gulf of Aqaba. The group decided to submit a formal proposal to the Assembly at once. The move followed a proposal by six Arab-Asian nations to con- demn Israel for failing to with- draw from Egypt and to penalize her with economic, military and financial sanctions. Tense and Crowded The six-nation proposal came as Secretary-General Dag Hammarsk- jold announced to a tense and crowded Assembly that Egypt consented to the UN Emergency Force taking over the Gaza Strip from Israel and to UN assistance in putting- an end to all raids across the border from either side. Israel has refused to budge from the Gaza Strip until assured there will be no more raids. Worried delegates saw new hope in the Hammaskjold announcement and waited for Israel's reaction. Foreign Minister Charles Malik of Lebanon presented a resolution to invoke restriction until Israel evacuates Egypt. Time to Talk The Assembly then adjourned the Middle East debate until Mon- day to give the United States more time to talk with Israel. President Dwight D. Eisenhower has been attempting to work out some method of obtaining compliance with the Assembly requests short of restrictions. The resolution was originally sponsored by Afganistan, Indone- sia, Iraq, Lebanon, Sudan and Pakistan. The resolution noted previous requests by the Assembly for Israel to evacuate Egypt and asked the Assembly to "view with grave con- cern" Israel's failure to comply. Then it called for this action: 1. Condemn Israel for not with- drawing. 2. Urge all states to deny eco- nomic, military and financial as- sistance to Israel until she com- plies. 3. Request all states to cooperate with Hammarskjold in implement- ing the restrictions. Report on Implementation 4. Request the secretary general to report on the implementation of this resolution and the previous requests to Israel. While the delegates resumed de- bate on the political situation, the Assembly's Budgetary Committee completed recommendations for paying the 16% million dollars estimated for the cost of the UN Emergency Forces on duty in Egypt. The Assembly already has de- cided that 10 million dollars will be raised by the regular assessment on all 80 members, with the United States paying its regular one-third share. The Budgetary Committee rec- ommended that the members con- tribute the additional 6%/2 million dollars.

Speaking informally before a small group at Lane Hall, Marshall mentioned Ghandi's non-violence as one of three ways "people's daily lives are being changed in race relations." Committees such as the Human Relations Board on the University campus, he said, are a second mechanism for improving race relations.
