House Ways and Means Committee chairman Arnell Engstrom (R-Traverse City) expressed confidence that the House would ap- prove and possibly surpass the $31.6 million Governor G. Mennen Wil- liams recommended for University operation. "There is a current trend in the House to allocate more education funds," Engstrom declared.

The drive, headed by chairman Tim Felisky, '57E, will be held May .5 to 11. Known as Campus Chest, the once-for-all fund drive is re- placing the separate drives prev- iously held for World University Service, Free University of Berlin Fund, and the Fresh Air Camp. "Don't Pass the Buck, Give It" is the slogan which sets'the "goal" at a dollar from every student. Different in Philosophy To realize this goal, this year's drive will not be based exclusively on the bucket drive, as were its predecessors. "Campus Chest is different in philosophy," Felisky commented. Plans call for the "personal value" to predominate in the fund-rais- ing, with solicitations in residence halls, fraternities, and sorority houses the major means of collec- tion. Students living off-campus will be contacted for contributions on May 7, and a bucket drive will be held on campus May 9 and 10. Drive Under SGC Tags will be given to donors. Aiding in the drive are a soli- citations committee, haded by Ju- lie Fahnestock, '58, and the secre- tariat, chairmanned by Robert Schulz, '59E. Campus Chest is under the direction of the SGC Campus Chest Board, headed by chairman Harlan Givelber, '57.

George Sallade, CR-Ann Arbor), has already conferred with Democratic leaders and may pro- pose the corporation profits tax if sufficient funds for education cannot be provided. The tax would provide approximately $132 million annually. Taxes on beer and liquor. which would bring in $15,500 million next year, is the only tax so far proposed by either house. Senate Appropriations Commit- tee chairman, Elmer Porter, (R- Blissfield), said the Senate may increase its $29.1 million proposal should the House defeat the bill. Doubted Large Increase Porter doubted, however, wheth- er the Senate would approve a $31.6 million budget proposed by Gov. G. Mennen Williams or the governor's corporation profits tax. "We think the proposed funds are adequate even though Univer- sity tuition will have to be in- creased 25 per cent," Porter said. 'The trouble with the University is that it believes in giving every- one a free eeducation," he added.

The report was prepared by a special committee under the chair- manship of Dr. Albert C. Fursten- burg, dean of the medical school. It is preliminary and contains no formal recommendations. According to the report, the state stands twenty third in num- ber of doctors per 1,000 population, while ranking seventh in popula- tion. Michigan has 109 doctors per 100,000 population, far short of the national average of 133. Limited medical school facili- ties in the state have kept Michi- gan low in the rankings. Only the University and Wayne State Uni- versity have medical schools. Population has been growing rapidly in the state, which has one of the highest immigration rates in the country. The medical school has doubled its graduating class since 1949, from 92 students to 189, the report shows, while Wayne State has re- mained about the same. The report stated that there is general agree- ment that the medical school should not increase its present en- rollment. Wayne State has asked the leg- islature for funds which -will per- mit an admissions increase of 50 students per year. -Daily-David Arnold PROF. HART . . suggests super-group cil is required for the calendaring of rushing or any other campus activity. "May Be Violation" SOC Treasurer Maynard Gold- man, reached for comment on the matter, said that as yet "the- plan has not been brought to us. but there may be a violation:" He added he did not know what ac- tion would be taken on the calen- dar if there is a violation. President Joe Collins also said Panhellenic may be in violation but added that he favored a "lib- eral attitude" toward the matter. "My main concern," he explained, "is not the December rushing, but the conflict that the November pre-registration might have with other activities." When questioned about the pos- sibility of a violation of the SGC recommendation, Panhel Presi- dent Marilyn Houck, '58Ph., said she was "not aware of any viola- tion." She continued that she un- derstood that Panhellenic had jurisdiction over the "internal or- ganization" of the spring rushing program. Issued Statement She declined to discuss the cal- endar any further saying that it was "only tentative." She later issued a statement for the Panhellenic executive council: "We have not yet issued, an official calendar and must contact other campus organiza-; tions about their activities before doing so." Her final statement on the "ra- tionale" behind the early schedul- ing was that "the rationale is not complete because the calendar is not complete." Other Reactions Other reactions to the schedule were voiced by affiliated women. Most of them favored the tenta- tive schedule but all professed noj knowledge of the reasoning be- hind beginning rushing in Decem- ber. Alpha Phi President Joannet Wellman felt that the calendar had the advantage of "getting the3 first set, our biggest group, over with before Christmas vacation." She noted that other schools, no-1 tably Michigan State University1 used this same plan. Jeanne Marsh, '57 Alpha Epsi- lon Phi, said she was "agreeablet to it as long as it doesn't interferef with the between semester's va-, cation." She mentioned in addi- tion that splitting the rushing1 season might be disappointing to girls who had not maintained af two point grade average the firstt semester and thus could not con-c tinue rushing.1 HELPING HAND . .. campus chest symbol s, ated in the fall to provide a single once-a-year fund raising drive for all organizations who wished to solicit on campus. The board regulates solicitations while a committee under it allo- cates the money collected to var- ious charities. A reserve fund is maintained for special purposes, for example aiding the Hungarian refugees. Groups represented in the drive 'include the League, Union, As- sembly Association, Panhel, Pan- hellenic, Inter-House Council and Inter-Fraternity Council. These groups are represented on the operations committee and provide workers for the drive.

KOGEKAR ... on India Hart Wacks Economnic Supervision "A Look at Secretary of Treas- ury George Humphrey shows that when expressing his own opinion, he displays a limited economic' grasp," Prof. Albert G. Hart, of Columbia University, told the Eco-L nomics club last night. If decisions "were held up until the President could act, it would be potentially disastrous," the eco- nomics professor declared as he advocated a National Economics Council to oversee the nation's economy. He compared such a group to the National Security Council or the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and said it should be chaired by someone of "super cabinet rank." Calling the "irresponsibility of the United States Congress a problem," the guest speaker said "one of the most terrifying things is that no one's made a con- gressional career of being sound in economics." An economic council would make the best use of available brain power and its staff would have a broader outlook than the "parochial views" of the Federal Reserve Board and the Treasury Department, he said. "The idea of setting up a super- ior office over the Treasury and the Reserve Board is tempting." Noting that Congress would be reluctant to give up its power to regulate tax rates, Prof. Hart pointed out there's nothing to pre- vent an administrative agency from abating tax rates such as the Department of Internal Rev- enue acting lenient with taxpayers. Tornado Alert Out Yesterday Colonialism Hatred Cited By Kogekar Y 9 Prof. Sadanand V. Kogekar of Poona University, India, said yes- terday that Indian emphasis on world peace, democratic govern- ment and economic development has caused "tension" between his country and the United States. Sponsored by the Political Science depattment, the visiting history and political science pro- fessor's lecture was highlighted by his views on Indian foreign policy. Prof. Kogekar noted that India is puzzled over how a democratic nation like the United States could support countries with im- perialistic policies such as Britain and France. He said that India's principles are inherent in it's domestic and foreign policy because of former control by an imperialistic power and the great need for economic development in a land that has twice the population of the United States and only 40 per cent of its land area. "Only in an atmosphere of peace," he stated, "can India get the aid it needs for this develop- ment. We must depend on others for technical know how - if not the capital - for bringing about economic development. "India," he commented, "has never been under communism but has lived under colonialism." This does not mean, he con- tinued, that Indians are unaware of United States problems with communism but we plead that they also see the position of India. Tolls ToUse Tolls For Future Construction Allows Unrestricted Shipping to Every Nation but Israel CAIRO ({I) - Egypt made public here yesterday its plan to clamp complete Egyptian control on Suez Canal operations and toll money. In New York the United Nations Security Council scheduled a meeting on the Suez issue tomor- row at the request of the United States. The announced Egyptian plan provides some latitude in arbitrat. ing disputes that may arise in op- erating the 103-mile waterway the Egyptians nationalized last July 26. T h e Egyptian memorandum promised uninterrupted navigation for all nations - with some res- ervations - and proposed setting up a fund of one-fourth of all tolls to develop the canal. Egypt will collect all tolls, the memorandum said, and the Egyp- tian government will take five per cent in royalties. It said toll in- creases would be limited to one per cent a year unless negotia- tions with users provided for more. T h e Egyptian announcement and responsible Egyptian officials insisted that the document will have the force of an international treaty registered with the United Nations. The memorandum was issued just before the Security Council in New York scheduled its Friday session. At the UN in New York an Egyptian delegation spokesman said Israel "definitely" will be barred. SGC To Seek Reactions On Insurance By RICHARD TAUB Student Government Council last night established a committee to study and gather student opin- ions on a health insurance pro- gram for the University. The committee will also repre- sent the council in all negotiations with health insurance companies. At its March 14 meeting, SGC had called for campus-wide, compul- sory health insurance. No Funds at Present However, at present the Univer- sity does not have funds to pay for such a program, Scott Chrysler, '59. told the Council. The program would have to be conducted on an individual basis, he said. The committee will consist of three SGC members and chairmen of present Health Insurance sub- committee. Because of the techni- cal knowledge involved in such a program, Chrysler felt it would be more advantageous for the com- mittee rather than the whole body to work with the companies. Ron Shorr, '58, announced the new committee heads of the coun- cil under the revised administra- tine structure. Judy Martin, '59, will chair the Student Activities Committees, Connie Hill, '58, National and In- ternational Affairs, Gerald Black- stone, '60, Educational and Social Welfare, and Public Relations Art Epker, '58 BAd. 'RICHARD III': Shakespearean Tragedy Opens Tonight "Richard III", Shakespeare's melodrama of violence, will be presented by the Department of Speech at 8 p.m. tonight through Saturday at the Lydia Mendels- sohn Theatre. This final presentation on the spring playbill dramatizes the wars between the English royal houses of Lancaster and York. Richard, played by G e o r g e 'Ward, Grad, is determined to seize the crown of England by exe- cuting rivals. This Shakespearean tragedy is more than a dramatiza- tion of history as it includes a les- son in the workings of moral law and justice. mi-if ncr ,I'A To M.M Ar lC r - IKauper S ays Court Decides Integration Professor Paul E. Kauper of the law school called the 14th amend- ment the "most important of the" triad of the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments because of the number of decisions based on it. Speaking at the fourth meeting of the Culture Club last night, Prof. Kauper outlined the history of the constitutional status of the Negro. Looking into the future, he said that integration in southern schools will be at least another few years in coming. "The rate of integration will depend on the prodding the district courts receive from the circuit courts," Prof. Kauper said, The Negro did not have any constitutional standing until the Dred Scott case in 1857. Until the Civil War, the Negro was recog- nized only as a piece of property ruled that businesses could not be discriminated against and that the law was unconstitutional.
