Kessel had called for a redefinition of the regula- Sbons to permit students more than ke Re;ects ruman Plan or Tax- Cuts WASHINGTON (iP) - President . Dwight D. Eisenhower took aim at. Harry S. Truman yesterday and said he never would go for a pro- ram that might "flood the coun- I with money" and shoot prices upward. ,President Eisenhower again held back on any immediate tax cut to pump up purchasing power and combat. the recession. He told a news conference he has made his position crystal clear-this busi- ness of a tax cut will be taken up when he can be convinced. it will be for the benefit of the United States. The chief executive also erected caution and slow signs in the path of public works legislation, where- as former President Truman is urging heavier spending on works projects. Truman told a House committee Monday the recession is very serious and proposed a five-billion- dollar tax cut for middle and low- income families. He said this culd ' be ofset by wPing out special tax privileges, .closing tax law loop- holes, and bringing down interest payments on the national debt. President S ins N ew Highway Bil WASHINGTON (R) -President Dwight D. Eisenhower ended the suspense and signed the $1,800,- 000,000 higliway bill. He found things wrong with it- precedents he said he wouldn't like to see followed in the future- but decided to go along because of prospects it could be a quick help in creating jobs. There has been advance indica- tions that Eisenhower would, sign, but no certainty. Only last Satur- day a big Chicago meeting to dis- cuss highway construction was called off because of doubt as to whether the bill would become law. The new law aims at three major goals: 1. To provide new jobs. Sen. Gore estimated that the new jobs would swell, to 520,000 in time. 2. To get the schedule for the 41,0.00-mile superhighway inter- state network back on the 13-year schedule set for it in 1956. Other- wise, the .prospect was for a long w stretch-out. 3. To establish a national policy of regulating billboards on the in- terstate system and giving states incentives to carry out this policy.. States agreeing to regulate bill- boards would get a bonus-of 1/2 of 1 per cent of the cost of the inter- state sections regulated by the agreement.

His motion was a recommenda- tion to the faculty Committee on Student Conduct. Avoid Delay Kessel said several University agencies were working on the re- definition, but had failed to get toge her so far. He wanted to avoi further delay, he said. The Council also decided not to consider a protest from two stu- dents desiring to become members of the International Students As- sociation. . The dispute arose because the ISA Cabinet had closed member- ship during the month before theF close of petitioning for ISA officer elections. One student who wanted to be a candidate thus was unable toI petition because he had not joined in time, according to SGC Presi- dent Maynard Goldman, '59. 3 The Council referred the protest to Joint Judic.4 Chairmanships Open SGC Administrative Vice-Presi-1 dent Jo Hardee, '60, announced petitioning for standing committee chairmanships opens today.

Prep Seniors, TO' Earn TVY Co lleg e Credit DETROIT WP) - University of Detroit will offer college crediti courses by television next fall to the brightest high school seniors in the Detroit area. Prof. Francis Arlinghaus, di- rector of credit telecourses, said1 today it will be an extension of the first year of telecourses of-t fered for credit. He said this hasi been a successful experiment mainly with an adult audience.I Lectures at Homef The students will obtain their lecture material at home, in frontf of the TV screen. They will at-i tend U of D one hour a week for each hour's credit, for review andI tests. "Superior" high school students will be offered courses in English and mathematics over station WTVS, Detroit's educational TV station (Channel 56). Same Tuition Tuition will be the same as on the U of D campus - $14 per credit hour. The Very Rev. Celestin J. Stein- er, U of D president, said, "Tele- vision instruction no longer is a matter for debate. It has been proven and accepted that televi- sion students are on a par with* those under 'traditional' teach- ing." 'B' Average In order to take the courses, the students must have a "B" average in the course elected and they must be currently carrying a senior level class in it. The procedure the student must Nuclear War Unlikely Now -Kissinger By LANE VANDERSLICE An all-out nuclear war is the greatest danger to the United States but the least. likely threat, Henry'A. Kissinger said last night as he asked, for a United States foreign policy that would be more adaptable to -Russian challenges. The associate director of the Harvard University Center of In- ternational Affairs said the United States strategic policy of massive retaliatiion made all instances of Soviet aggression so far "marginal -cases." Marginal cases he defined as cases that can't be provided for with an already-formulated stra- tegic policy. As the power of nuclear weapons grow the will to use them grows less, Kissinger said. Lacking any other doctrine When a .crisis either improvises a policy ofi goes with- out. Cites Marginal Cases Kissinger asked for a policy that would make marginal cases rare and which would enable the United States to apply power to specific instances. His policy, which he discussed in general ternms, was to develop graduated methods of containing the Soviets. He attacked the notion that diplomatic settlements are due solely to diplomatic skill, saying that the possibility that force would be used was behind a good many settlements. There is a fear in the United States of not taking every Soviet offer at face value Kissinger said. Despite the changes that have occurred in Russia the Soviet for- eign policy is "not significantly different'.", Reliance on Massive Retaliation He said reliance on massive re- taliation has weakened the United States alliance system. To the ex- tent that nations believe that the United States is their sole means of defense he said they will mini- mize their contribution to the de- fense effort and rely on United States troops in their countries to provide the "tripwide." The other alternative for na- tions under the present strategy is to try to achieve a retaliatory force of their own-which adds little to the deterrent power of the free world, Kissinger said. A contributing factor to the in- security of modern international relations, he said, is that smaller nations often get the two great powers into positions that neither would choose by themselves. HENRY KISSINGER * * . policy analyst Coty Seeks New Basis For Cabinet GoVernment Falls On African Issue PARIS () - President Rene Coty began a search yesterday for some sort of parliamentary coali- tion to govern France, amid gloomy predictions of a long-term Cabinet crisis. With Premier Felix Gaillard's five-month-old Cabinet routed by the combined attack of conserva- tives ands Communists on a wave of anti-American sentiment, the President's search for a National Assembly majority promised to be an anguished one. Important and even painful con- sequences of this new crisis lay ahead for France, and most po- litical obsrevers seemed pessimis- tic. If the next government, when it finally is formed, is more to the right than the last - which seems likely - a hardening of French policy toward North Africa may well lead to increased French- American strain. This was the fifth time that a French government had been thrown out on a North African issue. This time Gaillard had backed a U.S.-British good offices solution to achieve better relations with Tunisia. He fell Tuesday night on a 321-255 vote after five months and 10 days in office. IFC To 'Try 'Organized Open Rush' Organized open rushing will be tried by the Interfraternity Coun- cil April 28 and 29. Lmu ol , '59, IFC' executve yice - preid ent, announced the plan, which will enable men in- terested in rushing and pledging fraternities to take part in open rush under more relaxed condi- tions. Unde the plan, fraternities in. terested in open rushing will notify the Council and then hold open houses on, the nights of April 28 and 29. It is not necessary for men in- terested in open rush to register with the IFC. "All they have to do is walk into the houses they are interested in," Howard Nack, '60, IFC rushing chairman-, said. Fraternity rushing at the Uni- versity is conducted on two levels. First, at the beginning of each semester, is the formal rushing period lasting about three weeks. After that is open rushing. During open rush a man can visit any house he wishes. He does not need to register with the IFC as hc, does during formal rush. The lack of interest in open rushing has been a great problem, Kolb said.. The problem with open rush, un- til now, Kolb said, is that very few fraternities or men take advantage of this period. Through further organization of this period, he continued, "we feel that a still greater number of fra- ternities will be able to meet and pledge interested men." Kolb called on fraternities for participation. "A slovenly rush on the part of those fraternities that will be participating will . . . in the long run, be quite detrimental to the system as a whole. Russian SECOND TRY FALLS THROUGH: 'U' Seeks Raid Leadei Talks 4 BY SUSAN HOLTZER A second panty-raid attempt flickered and died last night as the embers of Tuesday night's march to the Hill slowly began to cool. Several fraternities reported they had received anonymous telephone calls, -instructing them Racial Fight Mrs. Stone "Four years ago I n e v e r dreamed that Virginia would re- sist the Supreme Court decision so firmly," Mrs. Kathryn Stone, Democratic legislator from Vir- ginia, said last night. Mrs. Stone conceded that she has not stood alone in' her fight against racial inequality in the South, but made it plain that the prevailing climate of opinion in Virginia, as elsewhere in the South is generally against her. The native Iowan, who has adopted .Virgina as her home, said that she "loves" Virginia, but does not condone many of the policies taken by some of the people and politicians of that state. As a result of the persistence of. the prominent segregationalists in Virginia. and other Dixie states, excluding North Carolina, many of the public schools are and will continue to be closed, she said. "The closing of public schools is becoming more and more com- mon,' 'she said. The established families will continue to send the children to, private institutions, particularly, at the secondary school level, Mrs. Stone continued, but eventually there will be a clamor for the re- -establishment of the public schools. At present Mrs. Stone's district, Arlington, is as she termed it, "fraught with tension." She laud- ed the federal circuit judges who have been "patient and firm" in their decisions. The anti-barratry laws are bar- relled through the Virginia legis- lature by Sen. Byrd and others, she said, with little threat of re- sistance. Usually measures in- tended to promulgate integration are introduced, but they' are sel- dom even considered. Mrs. Byrd referred to the "fa- natical" resistance to integration; as the "unfinished business of the' Civil War," She stated that, al- though four generations have fol- lowed the Civil War era in the North, because of the tradition of late marriages in the. South only three have emerged there and thus the memories of Southerner's are still long. to meet at Ferry Field at 8 p.m All apparently ignored the invita- tions. Meanwhile, wholesale investi- gations marked the aftermath of Tuesday's raid, in an Administra- tion attempt to pin down respon- sibility for the outbreak. Vice-President for Student Af- fairs James A. Lewis said they are trying now to "ascertain if this was planned, and if so, by whom." His proposed treatment of proved instigators was one word. "Dis- missal." Quad, Fraternity Probes Investigations centered around South and West Quadrangles, Beta Theta Pi and several other State Street fraternities, where the dem- onstration began. Individual offi- cials are handling the quad probes, while William Cross, Assistant Dean of Men in charge of Fra- ternities, has already surveyed the fraternities. Cross said his main interest was in determining whether there had been one ringleader, but said "I have found nothing." He said he feels sure now the raid was spon- taneous. U.S. IToStat Allied Armis Su6pply $Soon1 PARIS (:) -- The United States told its NATO Allies yesterday it can begin regular deliveries of medium-range ballistic weapons to back up the European defense shield before the end of this year. The defense ministers of the North Atlantic Treaty Organiza- tion received, a briefing- on the highly complicated modern arma- ment aimed at bolstering the fire- power of Allied forces manning -the ramparts across the center of Europe.. Officers and experts .accom- panying U. S. Defense Secretary Neil McElroy dispdlayed charts and motion pictures covering all types of new arms, from pocket rockets to the intercontinental ballistic missile with a range of 5,000 miles or more. In most cases they were dual- purpose weapons, capable of fir- ing either conventional or nuclear explosives. They included ground. to-ground, ground-to-air guided missiles and artillery-type arms. The first of the intermediate- range ballistic missiles, capable of hurling nuclear devastation on targets 1,500 miles away, will be in place on a base in Britain be- fore the end of 1958, informants said. Earlier, the ministers approved plans to double existing Allied ground force strength on the con- tinent, and to -beef up NATO divi- sions with nuclear weapons. In West Quad, action was im- mediate. After the demonstration had broken up, a man sat at the door taking down names of all residents entering after that time. All men on the list are threatened with fines. The raid itself was apparently the result of a long-standing ri- valry between several of the fra- ternities and the two residence halls. C'oss said friction between7 the two groups has been constantI ever since the dormitories were built.4 More Momentum'1 This time he, explained, whatI began as "ust one of the usual situations picked up more momen- tum than usual." Observers reported firecrackers were thrown at the Beta house from South Quad ,and a Beta member said "the Quaddies" used "horrible, obscene language" and made "lewd comments." Beta president Tom Cleveland said the fraternity has been in- structed not to answer any re- marks shouted froi the dormitory. Both Elements The group that actually stormed the Hill appeared to contain mem- bers of both elements. Cross called1 it "a Duke's mixture of anything you can find," with some coming from as far out as Washtenaw. He said there were "more onlookers than participants." . Although Lewis said the ad- ministration is really concerned,"oo esem o h v on cBe . no one seems to have consi ered the raid actually dangerous. Lewis called the demonstrators "good- natured," and Cross laughed as he said the raid was "not really bad." See 'U', Page 2 Indonesian War Flares In Sumatra- JAKARTA (P-The Indonesian Navy announced today that the invasion of Sumatra's West Coast to crush the rebellion against Pres- ident Sukarno's government began at dawn. The navy said marine units made an amphibious landing on the West Coast - presumably in the area of Padang. A navy spokes- man said the operation went "ac- cording to plan and was highly successful." The spokesman could.give no in- formation on whether the landing troops- encountered any resistance. If the rebels made a stand, how- ever it would be the first time in the seven-week civil war. The landing was preceded by a two-hour bombardment of Padang Wednesday by a destroyer and four covettes which had been maneuvering in the Indian Ocean off the West Sumatra port for several days. The shells from the ships land- ed in the jngles around Padang, disturbing thousands of birds. Otherwise htere were no casu- alties. Rebel shore batteries fired 24 rounds back and also missed their targets completely. Ike Seeks Tio Expand Defense Job WASHINGTON ()-President Dwight D.

But they insisted on going ta deeper into issues at the dplomati level than the Soviet Union wants to go. Thus they put the nexi move up to the Soviets and tlhi Kremlin was silent. Accept Proposal Similar notes from, the three Western power delivered Wednes. day tq Foreign Minister Andre dromyko accepted the Soviet pro. posal Friday that preparator3 talks for a summit conference be- gin on the diplomatic level today. They rejected, however, the sug gestion that the diplomatic ex. changes be confined to such simpl4 housekeeping matters as arranging the time and place for a late foreign ministers conference to la the groundwork for summit talks Major Issues The West insisted that the dip- lomats take up the major ques< tions and issues, explore them ii depth and see if there is a reason. able prospect of achieving con. crete results. The three Western ambassadors Llewellyn Thompson f the Unitec States, Sir Patrick Reilly o Britain, and Maurice Dejean, rep resenting a lameduck French gov ernment, told Gromyko in 500 word notes they would make them selves available. for the talks. No Further Steps A Western diplomat .said thi meant the ambassadors did no plan to call at the Soviet Foreig Ministry or take any further steps unless a reply to the notes requesta them to do so. Most Western authorities doubt ed that the Soviet governmen would agree to sult broad talk immediately. . European Question The West has been pressing fo the Sovilet Union to agree to dis cuss the future status of Easter European nations and the unifica tion of Germany. The Soviet U~nioi has refused. The Kremlin wants the summi talks to concentrate on the broa problem of disagreement.
