Bitain To Build Bases In Kenya Air, Sea, Land System To Establish Midpoint Between 'Home,' Colonies LONDON (P)-Britain has decided to build up a big new air, land and sea base system in Kenya as part of her revamped global strategy, British officials reported yesterday. This is likely to transform the East African colony, an equatorial land of 225,000 square miles, into a sort of imperial halfway house linking the British home islands militarily with its colonies and commonwealth partners in Asia and the Pacific. The British decision has been followed by a hush-hush reappraisal of the project for a new pan-African defense grouping. Senior Staff Confers Senior military staff officers of countries with interests in Africa south of theSahara Desert already are conferring to in- - sure joint planning and coopera- o tion. w , c s The powers concerned are Bri- Hospital Day Ask Anti-Red Arab Policy BAGHDAD, Iraq (R)-Ifaq an Saudi Arabia yesterday called o the Arab world to resist commu nisin, Zionism and imperialism a "d a n g e r s threatening indepen dence and sovereignty." A communique on this week state visit of King Saud of Sauc Arabia was issued shortly afte Iraq's Premier Nuri Said in a rar news conference called Russia Middle East trouble maker. s The communique issued simul taneously here and in the Saud capital of Riyadh made no specifi mention of Russia. But it said Saud and King Fai sal of Iraq pledged to safeguar the independence of their coun tries and stand against "any at tempt of foreign powers to inter fere with Iraq's or Saudi Arabia' affairs." The communique also urged al Arab states to refrain from inter fering in the internal affairs o any other Arab nation. This appeared aimed at Egyp and Syria. King Faisal's cousin, King Hus sein of Jordan, complained abou criticism leveled by the Egyptiai. amd Syrian press and radio at hin and the army during Jordan's re, cent political crisis. Polish. Head aBlasts 'Bid For Power' WARSAW (P) -Polish Commu- nist chief Wladyslaw Gomulka spoke two and one-half hours tc the party Central Committee yes- terday to squash what Communist sources called a Stalinist bid for power. He was replying to Kazimer2 Mijal, who spearheaded the at- tack on Gomulka's "middle-of-the- road" communism at the commit- tee's first meeting since Gomulka took its leadership last year. Mijal, a former minister of local government, denounced Gomul- I ka's policies as "a return to cap- italism" and "capitulation" to the Roman Catholic Church. Informants said Gomulka iron- ically told the 80 committee mem- bers, "I thought we would hear only one first secretary's report at this meeting-mine. It seems we have heard two. I shall have an answer." The sources said he then de- livered a detailed retort to Mijal and said the debate had convinced h in. th'at "dogmatic" Stalinism was as great a danger to Commu- nist ideology as revisionism (the tendency toward Western style demociracy). Previously the party here had called revisionism the greater dan- ger. Weak Math Behind Lack Of Scientists' CULVER, Ind. (R) - President Grayson Kirk of Columbia Uni- versity blamed high school mathe- matics instruction yesterday for tain, France, Belgium, Portugal, South Africa and the Central Afri- can Federation. South Africa wants the group tc join in a regional defense arrange- ment that could be linked with the North Atlantic Pact. Kenya extends inland from the Indian Ocean to Lake Victoria. I Coffee, coin and cotton loom large in the colony's economy. Home of the Mau-Mau From 1952 to 1956 it was chiefly in the world news as the home of the Mau Mau, a Negro terrorist society pledged to run out, the whites who make up about 30,000 of the six million population. That uprising was essentially crushed last fall. British informants said the Ken- ya bases could emerge collectively as perhaps the most important link in the commonwealth's de- fense chain. Long range bombers, able to deliver nuclear bombs, would be within striking distance of the Middle East from Nairobi's East Leigh Airfield. Pope Gives Wyszynki Red B iretta VATICAN CITY ()-Pope Pius XII gave a cardinal's red hat, a biretta, yesterday to Poland's Ro- man Catholic primate and then, in pointed reaffirmation of the church's opposition to communism, hailed a Polish martyr killed 300 years ago by Cossacks. The Pontiff's related double ac- tion was considered significant by Vatican sources. He first completed a procedure delayed more than four years by Poland's Communist regime, which confined Stefan Cardinal Wyszyn- ski until a few months ago.. The second, in the form of a dramatically timed encyclical to bishops of the church, called upon all Catholics, especially those in Poland, to follow the heroic ex- ample of St. Andrew Bobola, a Jesuit priest who was tortured to death. Vatican sources saw in the Pope's encyclical a clear answer to speculation that the church might ease its attitude of opposi- tion to Communist talk of "co- existence." The brief ceremony at which the cardinal was given his red hat and ring in a Roman basilica was austere. No other cardinal was present. It lasted only about 15 minutes. Later, in the Polish national church of St. Stanislas, Rome's. Polish colony and cardinals in Rome quietly congratulated the Polish primate.

TIPPERY, STARS: Michigan Edges Iowa 9-8 To Regain Lead By AL JONES Michigan's baseball team won a close, controversial game from Iowa in the 10th inning yesterday, 9-8, to move ahead of the Hawk- eyes and claim the lead in the Big Ten race. The winning run came in the last of the tenth, when Iowa relief pitcher Don Dobrino walked Bob Sealby with the bases loaded, forcing Bruce Fox across the plate with Michigan's victory margin. The final pitch of the game was close. The umpire's decision set off a storm of protest from Dobrino and Iowa Coach Otto Vogel. Game Delayed' The game started an hour and 10 minutes late due to the poor conditions of the field. Intermittent showers during the game made French Ask UN Ruling On Suez Pineau Seeks End Of 'One-Man Contro1- PARIS (R) - Foreign Ministe Christian Pineau flies to New~ York this weekend in quest of e firm ruling from the United Na- tions Security Council that presen one-man control of the SuezCana is only temporary. If he gets such a ruling, France may permit French flag shipping to use the canal again, pending a definite agreement on the water- way's international character. France is now the only major maritime power still boycotting President Gamal Nasser's Sue2 Canal authority, and French ship- owners are beginning to feel the pinch of foreign competition. It was pressure from these ship- owners which led France to appeal to the Security Council, according to persons in close touch with events in Paris. Premier Guy Mollet is ada- mantly opposed to acknowledging Nasser's control of the canal, and would resign rather than abandon this position. Britain and other members of the Suez Canal Users' Association, authorized their ships last week to use the canal and pay tolls "under protest" to Cairo. Thus virtually isolated on the world diplomatic stage on this issue, France contends Egyptian canal authorities must commit themselves. through the United Nations machinery to observe the Suez Convention of 1888 and the "six principles" of freedom of transit through the waterway, Foreign Aid Backing Due' Sparkman WASHINGTON (P) - Senat John Sparkman (D-Ala.) pre- dicted yesterday President Dwight D. Eisenhower will be more suc- cessful in whipping up foreign aid support than he apparently was in defending other parts of his bud- get. But Senator Styles Bridges (R- NH) said he doubts President Eisenhower's scheduled second TV- radio appeal to the nation Tues- day night will keep Congress from whacking another half billion dol- lars off the $3,880,000,000 aid pro- gram. Sen. Eridges, who heads the Senate Republican Policy Com- mittee, said he will support a re- duction of half a billion more in the revised figure set by President Eisenhower after the President scaled down his original request of $4,400,000,000. "I am confident Congress will not sabotage the program and will be careful to avoid any cuts that will endanger the security of the country." Seri. Bridges said. "But I think Congress is determined to have economy and some substan- tial reductions will be made." Sen. Sparkman, a member of the Foreign Relations Committee, said in a separate interview he thinks President Eisenhower's ap- peal last Tuesday for support of his $71,800,000,000 spending bud- get failed to make much impres- sion on congress. "But I believe he is going to have better success arguing for his foreign aid program than he did for his budget," Sen. Spark- man said.

Group Plans Asian Trip Writing a prospectus outlining the South Easf Asia Delegation plan is the current project of the South East Asian Steering Com- inittee according to William Wheeler, '60, committee member. "We are planning to send this prospectus to various foundations giving them background on the project," Wheeler said. In the fall of next year, the Student Government Council com- mittee will select seven delegates to make the trip, giving them an orientation in South East Asian politics and foreign diplomacy. Students interested in taking ;he proposed trip should consider taking related University courses in preparation for it, Wheeler suggested. The purpose of the delegation is to promote American culture and good-will on a student-to- student-basis, to meet Asian stu- dents and to visit some of their 'universities. "This area is of rising impor- tance to the world and these stu- dents we will meet are leaders of tomorrow, if not already present leaders, Wheeler said.
