Employment Still Drops In January 1,120,000 Added To Jobless Figure WASHINGTON VP) - The gov- ernment reported yesterday that 1,120,000 Americans were added to the unemployment rolls in Jan-. uary. It was the biggest monthly in- crease since the end of World9 War II. Total unemployment reached 4,494,000 last month,ntheCom- merce and Labor Departments re- ported., They said the increase, reflect- ing a sharp drop in factory em- ployment, was about twice the normal seasonal rise in unem- ployment which occurs, in the post-holiday slump. Claims Further Unemployment Sen. Paul Douglas (D-Ill.) con- tended the government's figures did not give thq real picture of total unemployment. Taking into consideration those whose working hours and pay- checks have been reduced, the senator said, you would get the equivalent of at least another mil- Slion unemployed. Sen Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.) agreed with Douglas. Senators Hubert H. Humphrey (D-Minn.), Patrick McNamara (D-Mich.) and Allen J. Ellender 1 (D-La.) called for a program of tax cuts, public works and other steps to strengthen the economy. More Statistics Released Some other recession statistics were released by the government. Total employment, dropped off' 2,158,000 in January to a level of 62,238,000. The average work week declined to 38.7 hours, 90 minutes less than It was in January, 1957. Average weekly earnings of fac- e tory workers dropped by $1.47 from December to January. Last month's average was $81.27. This . was $1.14 lower than the same month of 1957. Ikse Urges Post Of fice, Aid Pro gram WASHINGTON (P) - A two- billion-dollar program to modern- ize the physical plant of the postal service was announced by Presi- dent Dwight D. Eisenhower yester- day. The White House described it as a' move to bolster the national economy. "The program," a White House statement said, "will involve re- habilitating, enlarging or replac- ing 2,500 government-owned post office buildings, replacing or re- modeling 12,000 leased buildings, and providing mail-handling equipment for all postal facilities." James C. Hagerty, the Presi- dent's press secretary, was asked whether the post office moderni- zatio program could fairly be called part of the administration's program to combat Ithe business recession. ;Hagerty announced the Presi- dent will issue a statement on the economic situation today. Fifth Deputy Leaves Post, Sheriff Says The resignation of the fifth ! deputy to leave his post in the past two months was announced by Washtenaw County Sheriff Erwin L. Klager yesterday. Detective Sgt. Harry B. Hogan, 40 years old, of 5925 Nollar Rd., Northfield Township, was resign- ing because of "personality con- flicts" the sheriff said. Hogan had served on the staff since Jan. 1, 1955 as fingerprint identification officer and head of the Youth Bureau. Last week Klager announced a general reorganization of his de- partment and the plans for regu- lar meetings, of his department members. Kager emphasized that Hogan's . varn at+inn ha Ana nan+onnfan Cutler Criticizes Dorm Adjustin By LANE VANDERSLICE Prof. Richard Cutler of the psychology department last night re- jected expediency and "well-rationalized beliefs" as a basis for resi- dence hall policy. Prof. Cutler criticized the policy of "adjustment" he said was practiced in residence halls. He asked instead for a policy that would expose students to different cultural values and then, if necessary, adjust them. Cutler, Student Agree He said "the residence hall system is part of the total educa- tional experience" and should have the same goals as other Univer- _tsitY areas. He and Alan Krebs, -Daily-Robert Kanner PROF. RICHARD CUTLER favors integration Rocket Test Flight Sent Over Ocean CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (P)-A Redstone ballistic missile - the workhorse of the American space weapon arsenal-blasted off its firing pad yesterday. The Redstone, first-stage back- bone of the Jupiter-C rocket which hurled the first United States satellite into orbit around the earth Jan. 31, roared up into a black, overcast Florida sky at 7:52 p.m. EST. Its test flight out over the At- lantic ocean may yield much in-- formation vital to America in her effort to beat Russia to a solu- tion of the secrets of outer space. Announces Immediately A few minutes after 7 p.m., the Redstone service gantry was wheeled away and the missile be- gan to, shine through the black- ness of the night like a huge, bul-. let-shaped icicle. It had frosted over as liquid oxygen was pumped into its fuel tanks at 300 degrees below zero, The Army' announced minutes after the firing that it had made a routine test firing of the Red- stone. The missile was in sight only 25 seconds after it blasted off. Then it vanished into a black cloud bank. Predicts Use Soon Basically, the Redstone is a 200- mile ballistic missile - a simple, dependable, long-range artillery weapon that culd be set up, aimed and fired by GI Joes in the field. It is so far advanced, the Army claims, that it can be placed in the hands of troops by, mid-sum- mer., The furious public demand for an American earth satellite to match the Russian Sputniks cast the Redstone in a more exotic role and made it the free world's most famous space rocket. It was thrust into duty as the first stage of the makeshift Jupi- ter-C which performed so bril- liantly in launching the Explorer satellite now circling the world. VU'To offer Flu Vaccme Student Health Insurance is still on sale in the Student Activities Bldg., Student Government Coun- cil Treasurer Scott Chrysler, '59BAd, said yesterday. Insurance applications may be picked up in the SGC office, on the first floor of the SAB. Insur- ann trilmp n f Af a infilm onf Grad., agreed the basic function of a University could be expressed as "fostering constructive con- flict" and the dormitories were not integrated as well as' they could be. They differed on the solution to residence hall integration; Krebs advocated a "first come, first served" basis for placing en- tering freshmen. Prof. Cutler fa- vored allowing students with vio- lent objections to rooming with someone of a different race or nationality to room with someone of the same race and nationality. Criticizes Application They spoke last night at an open meeting of the Young Demo- crats ' Prof. Cutler criticized the pres- ent residence hall application question "Are you interested in a roommate of a different race or nationality other than your own." "It's hard to say yes to such a question," Prof. Cutler said. He suggested a question similar to "Would you strongly object to a roommate of a race or nationality other than your own." He said the expedient view, a view he said administrators "seem to hold," is that integration cre- ates more problems than it solves. A "go-slow" policy is advocated until students are ready for an- other step in integration. But due to this policy, Prof. Cutler said, students are never ready for the next step. Cites Question of Responsibility He said refusing to integrate further because parents might oby. ject would raise the question, "Who is responsible for the total educational process of the Uni- versity?" Krebs also advocated "exposing students to more ideas that might cause them to discuss or think." He read from a statement of the aims of the University from the literary college catalogue. He ex- plained the resulting laughter as caused by the difference between the catalogue description and what the University actually of- fers. AFL-CIO: Demands Anti-Bias Procedures MIAMI BEACH, Fla. A)) -- The AFL-CIO yesterday ordered its unions to include clauses barring racial discrimination in hiring, wages or promotions in all labor contracts. The directive, aimed at dis- crimination on race, color or creed, was one of a number of ac- tions voted by the AFL-CIO ex- ecutive Council at final winter meetings. The civil rights resolution di- rected all unions to establish com- mittees and procedures to insure "a meaningful civil rights pro- gram" in the ranks of all affiliated labor organizations. Non-Discrimination Clauses Urged It said all unions should nego- tiate non-discrimination clauses in collective bargaining contracts and see that employers live up to them. In other actions, the AFL-CIO leaders: 1) Deplored the news from Washington that by latest govern- ment count unemployment topped four and one-half million in Jan- uary. George Meany, AFL-CIO presi- dent, said labor was worried over the economic situation and doubt- ful of a midyear recovery as an- ticipated by President Dwight D. Eisenhower. Boycott Ordered 2) Ordered an alleged boycott by the Sheet Metal Workers Union against products made by mem- bers of rival steelworkers and ma- chinists unions submitted to an umpire. 3) Chartered a new Laundry Workers International U n i on, made up of locals which seceded from a laundry workers union ex- pelled from the AFL-CIO two months ago on corruption charges. 4) Pledged renewed effort to persuade rival textile workers un- ions to merge, and to get the feud- ing Air Line Pilots Assn. and flight engineers unions also to combine. Integration Group To Meet Inter-House Council's Integra- tion Committee will meet for the first time this year at 7 p.m. today in the East Lounge of South Quad- rangle. It will be an organizational meeting. U.S. Asked To Denounce French Raid WASHINGTON () -- Secretary; of State John Foster Dulles re- ported yesterday that Tunisia has requested American support in a move to denounce France before the United Nations -for bombing a Tunisian border village last Sat- urday. Sec. Dulles said it would be premature to decide whether to back any such complaint because Tunisia was vague about what the United Nations might do. He appealed to both sides to minimize the impact of the bomb- ing and seek to develop close and friendly relations of the kind he believes necessary between North Africa and Western Europe. Sec. Dulles talked about the French-Tunisian crisis at a news conference where he carefully sought to steer a middle'-course, in keeping with past policy.

SGC Pave Way For Talks WASHINGTON (AP)-The United States and Russia squared away yesterday for diplomatic talks prior to any summit conference. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles boosted things along with a news conference display of United States open-mindedness on the general subject negotiating with Russians. For one thing, he said a foreign ministers' meeting was not a necessary preliminary to a sum- mit conference. And President Dwight D. Eisen- hower, on the same day U.S. Ambassador Llewellyn Tommy Thompson was due back in Mos- cow, accepted the credentials of the new Soviet ambassador to Washington, Mikhail A. Menshi- kov, and arranged to be his host at a formal White House dinner for diplomats. In presenting his credentials at the White House, Menshikov ex- tolled "peaceful coexistence and cooperation." He pledged to strengthen U.S.- Soviet friendship and expressed hope he would "meet with under- standing and assistance." President Eisenhower responded that he was pleased to hear of Russia's "sincere friendship" be- cause the American people have "only the friendliest feelings" to- ward the Soviet people.

Informed sources said plans for merger of the two Hashemite kingdoms, both aligned with the West, already have been largely worked out.

SHEPHERD SUPPORTED BY 2,172-901 VOTE: Ypsilanti Supervisor Wins Battle Against Recall IBy LEWIS COBURN -...r. V in.; Crr:c' .,Cyrn. nt "~ ~s v '-cv' Ypsilanti Township Supervisor Franklin J. Shepherd won hIls battle against a recall move last night by a vote of 2172-901. Shepherd termed his victory "a complete vindication of the people's desire to have honest men and men of integrity in public life." The recall movement was launched against Shepherd after charges were made by the township board of trustees that the super- visor spent "less than 50 per cent of the required hours in his office." Criticizes Board Member Shepherd charged the board made its statement as a result of several conflicts he had with members of the board. Later, Shepherd, who is a township trustee, charged the other members of the board were "unfit to serve the people of the town- ship." He urged that they be recalled. Proceedings were then instituted .against Shepherd by several of the trustees who circulated recall petitions against him. The Washtenaw County Board of Supervisors, on which Shepherd sits, recently expressed confidence in Shepherd's work. Supporters of Shepherd's fight to stay in office crowded the Ypsi- lanti Township Hall last night as election inspectors worked to com- plete the tally on precinct six - the final precinct to report.
