Withheld Votes Stop Election Of IHC Veep Inter-House Council last night failed in a second attempt this spring to elect an administrative vice-president A large block of abstentions pre- vented either of the two candi- dates from receiving a majority of 12 votes. Twenty-one voting House presidents were at the elec- tion. IHC president Drake Duane '58, said it is "most probable" there will be an election at the next meeting May 23. However, expected announcement about that time of ing Co., testified the firm accorded Beck "favored treatment" in the beer business and that Beck inter- vened for the company in a strike involving two nonteamster unions. 'Scared of Beck' The committee chairman Sen. John L. McClellan (D-Ark.) sug- gested that Anheuser-Busch was afraid of Beck and "got involved with Beck and .couldn't get loose." Beck has been accused of dip- ping into the union treasury for hundreds of thousands of dollars and now is out on bail on federal income tax evasion charges. He has said he only borrowed the money from the union and every cent will be paid back. The teamsters' titan wasn't on hand yesterday to hear the latest testimony against him. The com- mittee intends to build up more of it Friday before bringing Beck back to the witness stand. Hired in 1952 Loomis said he was hired on a retainer basis in December, 1952, to advise the teamsters on invest- ing some 30 millions of union funds. He said the "blowup" came Feb. 15, 1955, after he repeatedly cau- tioned Beck against holding any financial interest in the channels through which the investments were made. The reason for the break, he said, was that he considered Beck, to be "acting improperly." Millions of dollars of Interna- tional Union funds Loomis said, were invested in mortgages through a firm called the National Mortgage Co., of Seattle. He was told Beck bought a third interest in this firm for Joseph McAvoy, the nephew of Beck's wife. The witness said that against his advice, the bulk of the union money put into mortgages was channeled through this concern. Stroke Fatal To Ezio Pinza STAMFORD, Conn. (AP)-Hand- some Ezio Pinza, 64-year-old re- tired musical comedy star and former Metropolitan Opera Bas-1 so, died early yesterday at his home in his sleep. He never re- covered from a stroke suffered April 30. An internationally known op- era star for some 25 years, he be- came a Broadway matinee idol as the middle-aged lover of thet smash hit "South Pacific." f His song, "Some Enchanted, Evening," in the musical comedyf back in 1949, became a theme1 song.

The bill, although trimmed half a billion dollars in committee Wednesday, still faced rough going because of the economy drive in Congress. Rep. C. M. Bailey (D-W.Va.), a leading supporter of the legislation, said he was sure that the reduc- tion helped its chances and he was "inclined to think" it would pass the House. On the other hand, Rep. W. H. Ayres. (R-O.) said that "barring an unforeseen outcry from the public, there isn't a deader pigeon on the 'awaiting action' roost on Capitol Hill" than the school bill. . Here is a comparison of the com- mittee and administration bills: Committee bill-300 million dol- lars a year for five years in grants to. the states, with distribution tc be based half on basis of school age population and half on the basis of need. Administration bill-325 million dollars a year for four years, a total of $1,300,000,000, with distri- bution to be based on need. Democratic bill offered by Rep. A. B. Kelley (D-Pa.) calls for 600 million dollars a year for six years, a total of $3,600,000,000, distribu- tion to be based on school age population. Adults .Need Instruction -McClus By SUSAN HOLTZER Professor Howard Y. McClusky of the education school made a plea for greater emphasis on adult education at an informal meeting of the Student National 5ducati'on Association last night. "The old cliche 'you can't teach an old dog new tricks' isn't true," McClusky stated. "The only diffi- culty lies in disuse." He emphasized the need for adult education by pointing out that in a field such as medicine, physicians are obligated to keep abreast of the latest developments. This philosophy should be carried out in other fields as well. Prof. McClusky went on to de- scribe the different areas in which adult education is being pursued, explaining that in many cases, the programs are not labeled as such. The largest program of adult education in the state of Michigan is the agricultural extension pro- gram, he explained. Another area in which it is becoming progres- sively more important is in large firms, many of which are insti- tuting programs of education for their employees. He also said that the growth of adult education programs in pub- lic schools is "phenomenal," and cited public libraries, museums,1 churches, and settlements as otherj contributing factors. Ike Trims From Foreign Aid Request Post Office Budget Hike Voted Down Senate Committee Says More Money Might Come Later WASHINGTON (P)-The Senate Appropriations Committee slam- med the door on Postmaster Gen- eral Arthur H. Summerfield's de- mand for more money yesterday, but indicated he could try again later. The committee voted not to re- store one penny of the 58-million- dollar cut imposed by the.House in Summerefield's three and one- fourth billion-dollar regular ap- propriation for the fiscal year starting July 1. However, S e n a t e Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson (D- Texas), a committee member, told newsmen this did not necessarily mean the committee would reject a later request for a supplemental appropriation. In addition to the 58 million whacked off by the House, Sum- merfield said he would need 70 to 90 million more to take care of an unexpected upsurge in Post Office Department business. He talked of cutting service again, as he did last March in a squabble over this year's funds, unless he got what he said he needed for next year. He men- tioned July 1, when the new gov- ernment year starts, as a time for cutting down on service. Rojas' Regime Quiets Dowry Bank Officials BOGOTA, Colombia (M)- The government cracked down yester- day on striking bankers in tense Bogota. But at the same time President Gen. Gustavo Rojas Pinilla acceded to a request from the Roman Catholic primate of Colombia to cancel a progovernment rally lest bloodshed occur. President Rojas' regime struck back at bankers who have sus- pended operations in protest against his election to another four-year term. One bank was or- dered seized and bank employes drafted into military service. The action came as business reached a virtual standstill in the capital. Factories and shops re- mained closed. Military police pa- trolled the streets in strength. At the request of Crisanto Cardi- nal Luque, Roman Catholic arch- bishop of Bogota, a progovern- ment rally set for Saturday was called off. LATE PERS FOR SALE: Campus Chest Drive Continues -Daily-Norm Jacobs BUCKET DRIVE ... many helping hands RULES: Contacts Discussed By Panhel By ELIZABETH ERSKINE Panhellenic Board of Delegates yesterday discussed the proposed sorority contact rules to comply with next year's spring rushing program. The tentative contact rules are: F r o m September registration until pledging, March 2, no soror- ity member may enter any inde- pendent women's housing unit and no independent woman may enter affiliated housing units execept during approved rushing parties. From the first set of parties' Feb. 7 until pledging, strict con- tact rules will be in effect. During this period there may be no contact between affiliated and independent women unless mem- bers of two houses are present. Affiliated women will be prohibited from telephoning rushees in dor- mitories or League houses. Visiting in dormitories and inde- pendent Leagues houses also will be forbidden. Two weeks ago at the delegates' meeting, Panhel Rushing Chair- man Elizabeth Ware, '58, explained the rationale behind the proposed rule. She said Executive Council realizes it would be impossible to have strict rules for the entire period because: 1) Contact between independ- ents and affiliated on campus committees and projects is essen- tial. 2) Strict contact rules would not promote friendly relations between the two groups. 5 i t t t r l $520 Campus Chest will conduct the second day of its bucket drive and sell late permissions today to in- crease the $1300 collected so far for charity. With $375 collected yesterday from the bucket drive and house solicitations, the chest has now obtained 20 per cent of its $6500 goal. The drive will run through Sunday. Late permissions for May 18 will be sold by Women's Judiciary Council from noon until 5:30 p.m. on the Diagonal. In case of rain they will be sold in the lobby of Mason Hall. The one dollar paid for the 1:30 a.m. permissions will be donated to Campus Chest. Bucket Drive Contributions to the bucket drive can be made on the diag- onal in the engineering arch and in front of both the Union and Women's Athletic Building. Off-campus contributions. can be made at buckets in front of Nickel's Arcade and in front of the dime store at State and North University Streets. The Student Activities Building will also ac- cept contributions for the drive from 3 to 5 p.m. today. It's too early to comment on the success of the drive since many of the important money re- turns, such as those from frater- nities, sororities and the dormi- tories on the hill are not yet in, Harlan Givelber, '57, chairman of the Campus Chest Board, said. Chest Board The board works under Student Government Council, handling all phases of- Campus Chest planning and drive work, as well as alloca- tion of its funds. It is composed of representa- tives from SGC, Panhellenic As- sociation, Assembly Association,' Inter-House Council, Inter-Fra- ternity Council, Jr. Panhel, Jr. IFC, the League and Union. Tim Felisky, '57E, is serving as drives' chairman for the current chest campaign, and also holds the chairmanship of the publicity1 committee. Julie Fahnestock; '58,; is in charge of solicitations, and Roberta Schulz, '58, is chairman4 of the secretariat committee. LEAGUE:- Councils Hold Joint Meeting Joint meeting of League and Union Councils was held last night at the League for familiarization of the two groups. In a discussion of League-Union relations, Marylen Segel, '58Ed, president of Women's League, said, "Being in two separate buildings doesn't mean that we can't work together." Don Young, '58, cited the Union- League Calendar, to be published next year, as one instance of the two groups working together to serve the campus community. The 138-page calendar will go on sale during Orientation Week next fall. Million TV Speech To Explain Expenditures Administration Plans Government Costs Around $71 Billion WASHINGTON ()-President Dwight D. Eisenhower trimmed 520 million dollars off his foreign aid budget yesterday, then laid plans to defend his whole spending program in two nationwide radio and TV speeches. The White House asked the major networks for time early next week, preferably Tuesday night. Under the administration's plans, the cost of the government in the fiscal year beginning July 1 would be more than 71 billion dollars. But members of Congress are talking of reductions in terms of from three to six billion dollars. James C. Hagerty, White House press secretary, said that in addi- tion to next week's speech the President would like to address the nation sometime during the week of May 19 on the subject, "Why Mutual Aid is so Essential in Winning the Peace." The net- works also have been asked to set this up. President Eisenhower's foreign aid cut made amid congressional talk of far deeper slashes, reduced the proposed mutual security pro- gram to $3,880,000,000 for fiscal 1958. The President voiced a con- viction that it would be risky to cut any deeper, Asked whether the White House expects to get free radio-TV time, Hagerty said he simply had told the networks the President would like to make two major speeches. Ordinarily the networks do not charge for time for presidential addresses which are not clearly labeled as political.
