Dulles said it would be easier to win Russian acceptance of such an arctic disarmament plan than one covering a heavily populated European zone where there are political complications. The secretary told his news conference an arctic agreement would relax East-West tensions because it would include aerial inspection of "potential launching sites Ike Defe n ds Record Peace Budget 4 * . * * * * Peace Costs oo Large House FrCutting 1 0u Security Gains Cause Increased Spending -U, i Committee Raises dget by $122,8 Comm ttee Hears Beck Stock Story WASHINGTON (R) - Senate probers were given an inside story yesterday of how Dave Beck or- ganized 52,000 employes of Mont- gomery Ward & Co. into the Teamsters union after supporting the management in a bitter proxy fight two years ago. 'The story came from Alfons Landa of Washington attorney for the Fruehauf Trailer Co. and a witness before the Senate Rackets I Investigating Committee. Landa testified the Teamsters 'Union, headed by Beck, held two million dollars worth of stock in the mail order house and had in- tended to vote it for financier Louis Wolfson in Wolfson's 1955 fight to wrest control from the Sewell Avery management. "I said I was sure that if he would support the Montgomery Ward management he could have the opportunity of organizing Teamsters Union," the witness Montgomery Ward into the said. Beck seized on this as "a good idea," Landa testified. He said Beck told him Avery had resisted all previous attempts by the Teamsters to unionize the mail order company. Landa said he passed the word along to Montgomery Ward, the Teamsters voted against Wolfson, and subsequently the Teamsters organized the employes. Expressing indignation at the story, Sen. Barry Goldwater (R- Ariz.) demanded of Landa: "Do you think it's proper for unions to go into proxy fights and buy control of companies just so they can organize the workers re- gardless of the workers' wishes?" Landa replied he had never thought of it that way. "I just ade the suggestion to Mr. Beck that I thought it would overcome the resistance of Mr. Sewell Av- ery," the lawyer said. SGC To Hear FStudy. Motion On Athletics Student Government Council will again consider a motion to study intercollegiate athletics at the University, at 7:30 p.m. today at the Student Activities Building, according to Janet Neary, '58. ex- ecutive vice-president. The motion had been tabled last week until it could be determined just how much information in this area the council already had. At the same meeting, appoint- ments will be made to the new International Center Study Comn- mittee. This committee was set up last week to learn the role and effectiveness of the International Center. The council will also hear a re- por; from Harlan Givelber. '57, on the Campus Chest drive. Druids Tap New Members Druids, sons of magic, Foretellers of the future, Priests and judges- very knowing, wise-- The fires in the Stonehenge Are set slight With flames to heaven raised; Look upon the Aywends, Called from out thy mighty grove, The uninformed who would seek thy light which might be used in an atomic war." Other Inspections Later Dulles said it would make it "easier, almost inevitable that other East-West a g r e e m e-en t s would follow providing arms in- spection in other areas of the world." He suggested the arctic areas would be "an easier place to start" because only three governments, the United States, Russia and Canada, need be involved. Canada, he said, has already made it clear it is "sympathetically disposed" to such a disarmament test. Dulles did not rule out the pos- sibility of agreeing with Russia on a similar aerial inspection zone in Europe, but, he noted, the diffi- culties in Europe are greater be- cause more countries and people are involved. Other Problems On other international prob- lems Dulles said: 1) The United States is "consid- ering introduction of more mod- ern, more effective weapons" into South Korea to replace outdated equipment and to counter viola- tions of the five-year armistice by Red China. The Chinese Reds, he said, have sent planes, new wea- pons and other supplies into Northern Korea. 2) This government would not oppose a move by Israel to send a "test ship" into the Egyptian- operated Suez Canal. It would, however, oppose any attempt by Israel "to settle the matter by force or acts of war." '. 3) It would be "a rather serious blow" to American leadership if Congress refuses to approve Am- erican membership in the "atoms for peace" international organiza- tion which President Eisenhower proposed nearly four years ago. In handling a flurry of ques- tions about American disarma- ment policy, Dulles cautiously ex- pressed some confidence the Rus- sians are seriously interested in some sort of limited agreement with the West. IFC Head Tax. Hike Passed Fraternity Presidents' Assembly! unanimously passed a proposed Inter-Fraternity Council head tax increase last night. The former rate, $1.50 for two semesters paid at the beginning of the year, will be increased to one dollar per semester, payable at the beginning of the semester. Increased expenses and the need for an adequate working reserve were given as the reason for the! increase by Mal Cumming, '58BAd,! IFC treasurer. IFC expenditures are financed by pledging fees as well as the head tax. WASHINGTON (P) - President Dwight D. Eisenhower told the nation last night "the price of peace is high.- He said he sees no immediate prospect for "relaxation of inter- national tensions" to warrant a substantial cut in federal spend- ing. Appealing directly to the people in an effort to stem the budget- cutting tide in Congress, the Pres- ident said in an address prepared for coast-to-coast television and radio broadcast: "There is no cutrate price forI security." Huge But Necessary In a defense of the administra- tion's $71,800,000,000 spending program for the year starting July 1, the President declared the bud- get "is huge," but he called it necessary to help wage peace and prevent war. "I can see no immediate relaxa- tion of international tensions to provide the basis now for sub- stantial reductions of these spend- ing programs for preserving and waging peace," President Eisen- hower said. "In fact, the gains we have al- ready made impel us to press for- ward with no letup." Debt Payment Speaking from his White House office, President Eisenhower noted that more than seven billion dol- lars in the budget is earmarked for payment of interest on the national debt. Referring to it as an obligation which must be met, the President went on to say: "Ours is not like the Soviet gov- ernment, which recently told its people it would no longer pay the interest on its government sav- ings bonds." 9 Reiterates Views Repeating what he has said several times during the last few weeks, President Eisenhower said of the. budget: "No great reductions in it are possible unless Congress elimin- ates or curtails existing federal programs, or all of us demand less service from the government, or unless we are willing to gamble with the safety of our country." Earlier Monday, President Ei- senhower was described as con- cerned over the possibility Con- gress might cut deeply into his spending proposals for aircraft and guided missiles. Pakistani To Talk Here Professor Syed Ali Ashraf of the English department of Karachi University, Pakistan, will speak tomorrow on "Democracy and Is- lam" at 8 p.m. in the east con- ference room at Rackham. The Pakistani professor is tour- ing the United States to study educational systems. Indict Hoffa On Charges Of Wiretap NEW YORK (W) - James R. Hoff a, Midwest boss of the Team- sters Union, was indicted yester- day on charges of tapping tele- phones of the union's Detroit headquarters. Hoff a allegedly dipped into the union's till for $8,429 to pay for the wiretaps. The government said he was able to sit in his pri-' vate office and listen in on tele- phone calls elsewhere in the head-I quarters. The purpose, a federal grand jury claimed, was to eavesdrop on union members who might be po- tential witnesses before a Senate Rackets Investigating Committee and a federal grand jury in De- troit. Indicted with Hoffa were Ber- nard Brennan of Detroit. presi- dent of Teamsters Local 337; and Bernard Spindel, a professional New York wiretapper. Wiretap- ping is legal on the state level in New York with court permission. United States District Judge Lawrence E. Walsh set the ar- raignment of the three for Tues- day, 'Values May Halt Growth,' Kniffen Says Prof. Fred Kniffen of Louisiana State University, said yesterday that "certain cultural values may halt technological growth." "Our insistence on the disposal of sewage because culturally we cannot accept its reuse," he ex- plained. "results in the unneces- sary waste of good fertilizer." Culture is not "like a coat that can be taken on or off without difficulty," said Prof. Kniffen, chairman of the geography and anthropology departments at LSU. ,"Frequently people do things because their parents have done them - rather than as a result of logical or rational thinking." As an example, he described a community of Mexican fishermen who live near a lake which has been dried up for years. "Rather than develop a new profession which would be appro- priate for the new geographic conditions," Prof. Kniffen said, "they continue to travel great dis- tances to other bodies of water just to maintain their role as fish- ermen." 'SONGS OF THE SEA': Sigma Kappa Wins 'Lantern' Sing Led by Judy Tatham, '57, and dressed in sailor outfits, Sigma Kappa coeds sang their way to first place in last night's Lantern Night Sing with the medley "Songs of The Sea".

We hope the students will take advantage of the opportun- ity," he continued. -Daily-Ed Graff SINGING THEIR WAY TO VICTORY-The Sigma Kappa's sang their way to first place in the 20th annual Lantern Night Sing last night. 158 FEWER: Dorm Reapplications Less Than. LastYear Reapplications for men's residence halls took a slight dip under similar figures compiled for the same period last year. According to recent information drawn up after the April 26 dead- line for returning room reapplications, a decline of 158 renewals was noted from last year's total of 1,519 reapplications. Before these figures were tabulated, administrators feared a mass "student exodus" from men's residence halls might occur as a result of last December's food disturbance. However, after a "noraml" return was established, Peter A. Ostafin, director of housing, said the "expected exodus did not take place." Karl D. Streiff, assistant dean of men,'explained the slight de- cline as due to doubling up of rooms and expected increases in room will enable the quadrangles to ac- Expect Vote On Change Next Week Niehuss Says U' Will Not Commence Special Floor Action By MICHAEL KRAFT Special to The Daily LANSING-An increase of $1. 222,486 In the University's oper- ating budget was approved by the House Ways and Means Committee last night. The committee bill, raising the Senate's appropriation of $29,131,- 000, will reach the House floor for a vote early next week. University Vice-President and Dean of Faculties Marvin L. Nie- huss indicated that the University will not initiate any floor action to raise the appropriation further. Permits Operation "While below the amount we need for most efficient operation, it will permit operating without serious 'impairment on a tempor- ary basis for next year," he said, The appropriation will still "probably have to be supplemented by a substantial fee increase," Nie- huss said. First priority, he added, will be salary increases for the pre- sent faculty and staff. "We would have tried to do this with the lower appropriation, but now we'll be able to make at least minimum provisions for additional students." Senate Budget 'Impossible' He said it would have been im- possible to operate on the original 29 million budget passed by 'the Senate. The House Ways and Means Committee bill which increased the Senate-approved $84,276,894 total operating budget for higher educa- tion by over two million dollars marked another break in the Re- publican "hold - the - line" policy against increased state spending. The Republican proposed gen eral fund budget for the state has now reached 340 million dollars, about 11 million" dollars higher than the spending program origin- ally submitted by House'and Sen- ate finance committees. New Taxes Proposed Proposals to raise additional state revenue through increased taxes on cigarettes, beer and wine await a final vote next week. A corporation profits tax bill was already defeated in the House and cannot be passed this session. The House Committee als o granted increases to other Institu- tions of higher education and the state's mental health department. An increase of $413,993 was granted to Michigan State Uni- versity bringing their total oper- ating budget to $26,133,193. Mental health institutions received a $1,- 095,000 boost. This raises their budget to $62,465,897. Action by the House Ways and Means Committee followed a series of hearings with representatives of Universities and mental health in- stitutions. VulasTap 12 Initiates Mighty Vulcan, holding court in his forge, Mt. Aetna, sat em- bittered at man's misuse of his beloved fire. Now come to him his faithful followers saying, "Mighty Vulcan, hear these candidates for admis- sion to our sacred order." These being engineers, the only forms of mankind the God would hear, were forthwith put to the test, and hav- and board rates. This doubling up commodate 444 more students next fall. Administrators agreed that there would "definitely" be a hike in room and board fees, but added that they did not know the exact amount of the raise. They indicated the hike would be in keeping with rising food and maintenance costs. Wage increases to University employees will depend on the amount of money received by the University for operating expenses. Wage grants to University em- ployees are normally matched by corresponding increases to Resi- dence Halls employees. I ON SPECIAL TOUR: Japanese Newspapermen Impressed by Campus Censure Move Suspends TWO At Wisconsin Measures have been taken by University of Wisconsin faculty and Student .Senate to censure students participating in the May 9 water riot. The riot followed the pattern of student action last year at the same time. The faculty committee on stu- dent conduct and appeals tempor- arily suspended two students ap- prehended by Madison police dur- ing the water fights. The men were also suspended from their fraternity until they are reinstated by the University. Dean of Men Theodore Zillman said action against organized houses participating in the water fight would be discussed at the next meeting of the Student Life and Interests committee. Student Senate, in a special meeting on May 10, condemned students' "disgraceful activities." The first of two bills passed resolved: "That Student Senate, acting for the entire student body, apolo- gize to the Dean of Men, the Madi- son police, and the .City of Madi- son... "That Senate recommend that . student court partake in the full and unequivocal prosecution of the guilty parties if the persons are members of the university." liD'S To Hear By PHILIP MUNCK a day, six days a week and are and MARGARET MOORE listened to by 80 per cent of the1 Most Japanese universities are Japanese women.; Japanese radio stations also city universities and to 29 Japan- carry American quiz programs ese newspapermen visiting the and play popular songs.
