LXVIJI, No. 155 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, WEDNESDAY, MAY 7, 1958 FIVE CENTS SIX PA President Urges Party Unification Formal Kickoff of GOP Drive To Regain Republican Congress WASHINGTON SP) - President Dwight D. Eisenhower yesterday called for speedy approval of his defense reorganization, foreign aid and world trade programs to meet the Communist threat "in a situa- tion of balanced terror in the world." In a speech prepared for a dinner honoring Republican members, of Congress, Eisenhower appealed for action on those programs with- out regard to party labels. Warns Republicans But he also told his GOP audience that the party's prospects for capturing control of Congress from the Democrats in the No- JOHN FOSTER DULLES .. . plan gains support Hart Seeks Prper Aid To Students By PHILIP MUNCK Federal scholarships are "one way the government can help higher education," Lieut. Governor Philip Hartsaid yesterday, "but we have to watch to see that they wouldn't suffer from routine, semi- political distribution." Hart, who is seeking the Demo- cratic nomination for state United. States Senator, appeared in Wash- tenaw County yesterday to partici- pate in a series of "Hart for Sena- tor" teas. He said the argument that some states would receive more scholar- ship money than they put into the 41vember elections are bright. "If we will but try - if we will never forget the value of good hard work, we are certain, with our record, to win, next November," Eisenhower said in an address also carried coast-to-coast on television and radio. Gives Pledge "This," said the President, "is the sure road to ,a Republican 86th Congress." And Eisenhower pledged "You will find me standing beside you doing my very best for every member of our grand old party who carries forward 'the never- ending fight for peace, for secur- ity, for sound, sane and progres- sive government in America." Eisenhower reserved his politi- cal remarks for the conclusion of his talk, billed by the GOP Na- tional Committee as theformal kick-off of ,the party's drive to take over control of both the Sen- ate and the House from the Dem- ocrats. Cites World Tension For the most part ,the President spoke of the tense world situation and appealed for action on pro- grams to deal with it without re- spect to partisanship.. "We must, every one of us, never forget that we have entered an era that is for our, country entirely new," Eisenhower said. "Inescapably we live in a time of great uneasiness, in a situation of balanced terror in the world." World Menace Noted He spoke of the menace of Com- munist imperialism - "Tyranni- cal, insensitive to the needs of its own people, contemptuous of re- ligious faith and human dignity and worth, and obsessed with the goal of dominating the world." He spoke, too, of this age of nuclear explosives, ocean-span- ning missiles, aircraft of great range and speed, and of subma- rines capable of launching nu- clear-tipped weapons of tremen- dous range from under the sea's surface. Turning then to the first of the three programs on which he urged swift congressional action, Eisen- hower plugged hard once more for approval of the administration's controversial pentagon reorganiza- tion program., NATO Backs Dulles' Vie S i On Smmit COPENHAGEN (P)-The NATO foreign ministers yesterday estab- lished a solid front on summit talks by agreeing that Secretary of State John Foster Dulles was right all along in his cautious ap- proach. A diplomatic source said Rus- sia's recent j maneuvers "have opened the eyes of many Euro- aeans." Change in Thinking He reported a marked change in Western thinking since the North Atlantic Council meeting in Paris last December. Now, the informant said, not one of America's allies believes it wise to rush to top-level meetings with the Russians. All agreed during two days of consultations here that any sum- mit meeting must be adequately prepared and must show in ad- vance some prospect of East-West agreement on a basic point of world tension. Dulles Gains Support That is what Dulles has insisted on from the start. But last De- cember, in the wake of the Soviet Sputnik launchings, some of the 15 NATO members seemed dis- posed to try out the summit idea regardless. The latest Soviet note on sum- mit preparatios created little stir in the NATO Councl. French For- eign Minister Christian Pineau said it contained "absolutely no new element." Reports Maneuvers U.S. Ambassador L l e w e lly n Thompson flew here from his Moscow post with word of the So- viet Union's latest maneuvers. The French, making an inde- pendent assessment of what For- eign Minister Andrei Gromyko was up to, came to the same con- clusion as the Americans - the Russians were still stalling. NEW SYSTEM Universit May Detect Atom Tests University researchseismolo- gists may have discovered a tech- nique which could lead to a sys- tem of detecting nuclear explo- sions anywhere in the world. This discovery has increased the optimism among leading seis- mologists that an effective system for detecting nuclear explosions could be developed. Exploded Underground The disclosure was made at the annual meeting of the American Geophysical Union in Washington that "a team of University re- searchers, headed by Prof. James T. Wilson of the geology depart- ment, had detected the explosion of a "baby" atomic bomb deton- ated 1,735 miles away beneath the sands of the Nevada testing grounds. Using a special seismograph tuned to an above-normal fre- quency, Prof. Wilson and his col- leagues, Robert C. Fitzpatrick, Grad., and David E. Willis, Grad., revealed that th eneedle of the Engineering Research Institute machine was knocked clear across its recording roll by the explosion. Near Point of Origin The usual frequency range for seismographs is below 30 cycles, Prof. Wilson noted and they are unable to pick up the waves re- corded by the special 100 cycle machine. In fact it had been thought that the vibrations re- corded by the University appara- tus were absorbed by the earth near their point of origin. "We recorded higher frequency waves than we normally expect from blasts or earthquakes. How- ever, such frequencies have not been looked for extensively," Prof. Wilson said. First Recording Made He added that this was the first time such a recording was made and stressed that only one test of its bomb testing abilities was on the record. "Only one test has been made in only one place with only one machine," he empha- sized. The lack of experimental data prevented Prof. Wilson from mak- ing any prediction of the abilities of the machine but he plans further research on the project. To examine the feasibility of a seismograph detection system, Senator Hubert H. Humphrey, (D- Minn.), has taken a poll of 37 leading seismologists in the United States in attempt to pin- point effective range. Davis Wins Sp ring Post Stephen Davis, '59BAd., was chosen yesterday to be chairman of Spring Weekend for next year, according to Russel Berman, '59, Union executive vice-president. Berman commented that therel was no possibility of Davis becom-I ing Michigras chairman through the acceptance of the proposal to make Michigras an annual event since "campus opinion seems to be against holding Michigras every year." The proposal was advanced by the Union senior officers recently and has met with little favor among housing units who mustc participate In order for the week-j end to be a success.1 Governors Vote, House To Graduates The !Residence Hall Board of Governors voted yesterday to convert Frederick House, South Quadrangle, to an all-graduate house next fall. The decision followed in part the recommendation of the Michi- gan House Plan Committee that experimental houses be established in the residence hall system. Action on two others under im- mediate consideration, Tyler and Prescott Houses in East Quad- rangle, was postponed until a spe- cial meeting to be held on Monday. All three are currently women's houses and will be vacated in the fall on the completion of the new Mary Markley Dormitory. In further action, the Board of Governors passed a proposal by Prof. Lionel Laing of the political science department to continue the practice of dispersing English Language Institute students throughout South Quadrangle. The ELI had requested the ex- clusive use of Frederick House. A suggestion by Prof. Laing that the Institute be granted lounge facilities on the ninth floor of South Quadrangle was taken into consideration by the Board of Governors. Evaluation Of Courses SGC Topic Student Government Council will consider a motion to publish a booklet on course evaluation at tonight's meeting, according to SGC Executive Vice-President Dan Belin, '59. The report from SGC's Educa- tion and Student Welfare Com- mittee approximates costs for the project at $1050. The -booklet would be available in the fall, according to the com- mittee headed by Ron Gregg, '60, and would include student opinion on the "effectiveness of lectures, recitations and readings" in courses normally chosen by lower class- men. Teachers would also be evalu- ated. David Kessel, Grad., will intro- duce a motion to direct the cam- pus affairs subcommittee to con-' sider construction of student park- ing facilities. The committee would consider, if the motion was passed, using yearly revenues of the driv- ing regulation program to pay interest on a "large loan." The meeting will be held at 7:30' p.m. in the Council Room, Student Activities Bldg. Other business will include dis- cussion of University calendaring. A student member of the SGC; Board in Review will be named. -Daily-David Arnold RESOLUTION-Rep. George Sallade (R-Ann Arbor) discusses a resolution offered by Prof. Henry L. Bretton last night (on the right) attacking the state legislature's appropriations to the Uni- versity. Bretton Condemns State, Handling of 'U' Budget By SUSAN HOLTZER A resolution attacking the Republican State Legislature's treat- ment of the University budget failed to reach the floor of a county Republican meeting last night. The resolution was withdrawn at the last minute by its sponsor, Prof. Henry L. Bretton of the political science department, "for tactical reasons." Aimed at the legislature's handling of the University budget, the resolution declared "the cause of higher education" had been "misinterpreted,'misrepresented and maligned," and had been "denied adequate hearing" by "certain Folsom From1 lost Expeetec Resignation Fremming Considered For Vacancy Resignation Not Official-Hae WASHINGTON (M)-A new sec- retary of health, education and welfare-in all probability Dr. Ar- thur S. Flemming, president of Ohio Wesleyan University in Dela- ware-will be named to President Dwight D. Eisenhower's cabinet today, a Wesleyan source reported yesterday. Secretary Marion B. Folsom has Informed President Dwight D. Ei- senhower he wants to leave the post, White House Press Secretary James C. Hagerty said Tuesday. Widespread reports that Flem- ming would come back to Wash- ington to succeed Folsom drew neither confirmation nor denial from Haggerty. No Letter He said that no letter of resigna- tion has been received as yet from the chief of the department of health, education and- welfare. The university spokesman told reporters that announcement of Flemming's appointment would be made by President Eisenhower sometime today. "Until I know there is a vacancy, I have no comment," he said. Fol- som, 64 years old, has headed the department since the summer of 1955. Recognized as one of the found- ing fathers of the Social Security System in the thirties, Folsom has guided activities ranging from dis- tribution of 9.3 million social se- curity checks'each month, to water polution and to what to do about retarded children. Originally a Democrat Originally a Democrat, Folsom has through the years shifted first to independent and then Republi- can politics. He is currently in Florida on an extended vacation, taken upon his doctor's recommendation. He began the- rest April 1. He has reportedly told President Eisenhower about a year ago that LIEUT. GOV. PHILIP HART . .. senatorial candidate fund is not a valid objection to federal aid. "The boy in Arkansas we give an education to today may be our neighbor tomorrow.' "Education," he said, "can es- sentially be described in one word today-shortage. " The schools have a shortage of money and facilities, he continued, "but we ought not lose sight of the fact that the teaching profession needs more prestige." "Our sense of values could stand some improving," he added, "be- cause until the teacher finds here the same acceptance he does in Western Europe we will continue to lose them." He said the country need not fear that government funds would cause schools to become federally controlled institutions. "There will always be concern (by legislators) that the money will be used irresponsibly but the mere threat should not keep us from starting such a program," he explained. Hart is scheduled to speak to the Young Democrats at 9 p.m. Friday in the Union. Music School Gives Senior Highest Honor Nelita Ann True, '58SM, "was presented with the Albert A. Stan- ley Award at the annual School of Music Honors Assembly yesterday afternoon. It is the lighest honor that can go to a student of music. Prof. Stanley, for whom the award was named, was musical director of the School of Music and directed that his award go to representatives of the people in that legislature." No legislators were mentioned by name. Cites 'Link' In defense of education, it said "the welfare of the City of Ann Arbor and . . the County of Washtenaw are inextricably link- ed" to the University and Eastern Michigan College, and that the University has provided "steady sources of income to some 8,000 wage and salary earners .- The resolution then goes on to organization, "its continued, effec- tive support of the cause of higher education" in the state. Reason Given Rep. George W. Sallade (R-Ann Arbor), with whom Prof. Bretton conferred before deciding to with- hold the resolution, said the large number of people from outside Ann Arbor at the meeting was the major basis for the decision. He said they were "not as interested in higher education" as residents of Ann Arbor. Sallade said that, although he strongly favored'. the resolution, he concurred in Prof. Bretton's decision not to introduce it at that particular meeting, The purpose of the resolution, Prof. Bretton said, was "to give expression to what I feel should be the attitude of the Republican party in this area, if it wishes to retain the confidence of the ma- jority of people in Ann Arbor and Washtenaw County." World News Roundup PARIS P) - Rene Pleven told President Rene Coty yesterday heI had enough indications of party support to g6 ahead with attempts to become France's 25th postwar premier. , The middle-of-the-road Pleven still had to fill in details of his3 program and pick his ministers. Either of these factors could strewt more political banana skins in his way. * * * WASHINGTON ) - A member of President Dwight D. Eisen-X hower's science advisory committee has told senators it would bee "very considerably to our advan-' tage" to reach an agreement with AT FRESH AIR C Russia suspending nuclear wea- pons testing. Dr. Hans Bethe, professor of® physics at Cornell, said if testing continues "then they will surely A ff ih attain the same capability as we" and that is simple logic to "stop , . when you know that you are still - '' ahead."

Bretton of the political science department, which was ori- ginally to be introduced at last night's County Republican meeting.)

(4') - Millions of Americans were paper casualties yesterday in a 'mock mass nuclear attack by enemy bombers. But the Federal Civil Defense Administration, which staged the make-believe operation, said im- proved defense techniques were expected to hold casualties under last year's lighter attack. COPENHAGEN, Denmark (R) - By JOHN AXE The annual fraternity and sorority Help Week at the University's Fresh Air Camp is in full swing again. Sponsored by both the Junior Interfraternity Council and the Junior Panhellenic Association, this year's project was off to a "good" start, according to JIFC President Jon Trost, '61, with approximately 130 persons participating during the first two days. Unites Affiliates The project unites the two campus affiliate groups and gives them an opportunity to help out on a worthwhile project, according to Anna Swanson, '61, chairman of the publicity committee. On Monday and Tuesday the volunteer workers raked the grounds, scraped paint off cottages and boats at the camp located some 30 miles north of Ann Arbor on Patterson Lake. The work, which will continue through tomorrow, is designed to MARION B. FOLSOM .. will resign post he would like to return to private life some time this year.
