tate Court Finds
Eluff in Contempt
Saginaw Judge Will Challenge.
Decision in U.S. Supreme Court
LANSING (P)-Circuit Judge Eugene S. Huff was found in con-
empt of the Supreme Court yesterday in a history-making case
esting administrative powers of the high court.
The quiet, slender jurist from Saginaw, 11 years on the bench,
assed up an opportunity at the end of a 90-minute hearing to escape
unishment by bowing to an edict to sit temporarily in Detroit.
Instead, he announced to the eight supreme court justices that
e would carry the challenge of, their authority to the United States
upreme Court.

Lebanese Cabinet
Supports President
BEIRUT, Lebanon (P) - Pro-
Western President Camille Cha-
moun yesterday won the first
round in a bitter fight against
rioting opponents who tried to
break him.
At the end of a week of turmoil,
President Chamoun seems to be
gaining strength hourly and his
opposition is becoming demoral-
ized. An anti-government general
strike has lost its punch and most
cities are tranquil again after de-
structive rioting.
Security forces drove rioters
from the streets of Beirut and
other key cities.
President Chamoun's Cabinet
rejected feelers from the opposi-
tion for a compromise settlement.
Oppositionleader Saeb Salam,
who supports President Gamal
Abdel Nasser of the United Arab
Repubdlic, has found many of his
colleagues weakening.
Christian elements in the oppo-
sition feared Salam intended to
turn Lebanon into a Moslem-domi-
nated republic and destroy the
delicate power balance between
Moslems and Christians.
Presiderit Chamoun reportedly
rejected a compromise proposal
under which he would remain in
office until the expiration of his
six-year term in September.

tep. Warner
) Crit1icisms
By THOMAS HAYDEN
Rep. James Warner (R-Ypsl-
nti) was sharply criticized by
niversity and, local political
gures yesterday for his sugges-
:)n that the office of University
ce-President William Stirton is
i "unnecessary expenditure.".
The statement by Rep. Warner
s labelled "shocking" and "ab-C
i.A I

Prof. Henry Bretton of the po-
litical science department said the
remarks attributed to Rep. Warmer
illustrated how the cause of higher
education had been "misrepre-
sented, misinterpreted, and ma-
ligned" ,by certain legislatois.
Claims Pay Diverted
Rep. Warner said Thursday
"when the University created the
job (vice-president), it diverted
a large sum of money away from
needed pay raises for other faculty
members.";
"The allegation' that funds for
pay raises for 1700 faculty mem-
bers were diverted to pay the
salary of one administrator is
absurd," Prof. Bretton declared.
It is disturbing, he added, that
such a statement would come
"from a member of the distin-
guished Ways and Means Commit-
tee, which is responsible for the
proper evaluation of appropria-
tions ranging above $300 million
annually."
Sallade 'Shocked'
Rep. George Sallade (R-Ann
Arbor) said Rep. Warner's state-
r Mentz came as "a great shock."
He added that "irresponsibility
and a wild-eyed approach" has
characterized the attacks on
higher education by various legis-
lators.
Washtenaw County Democratic
Chairman Viola ,Blackenburg as-
sailed Rep. Warner's remarks as
an "obvious attempt to justify the
action of the Republican legisla-
ture" in cutting the University
budget.
The Ypsilanti representative's
f lone praise came from Cecil Creal,
Washtenaw County Republican
chairman, who felt Rep. Warner
basically "has- the interest of the
University at heart."
Rep. Warner voted along with
other Republicans for a University
appropriation of $30 million, a
'V slash of nearly $1 million. He
claimed he had favored a larger
appropriation while in committee.
Senate Probes'
Latin Attacks
Against Nixon
WASHINGTON O)--An inquiry
into the rough treatment given
Vice-President Richard M. Nixon
on his Latin-American tour was
taken over by the full Senate
Foreign Relations Committee yes-
r terday and expanded to cover
anti-American violence elsewhere.
The committee decided to broad-
eri the scope of the study to in--.
dude the recent burning of United
States Information Agency librar-
ies in Lebanon.
Chairman Theodore Francis
Green (D-R.I.) said the committee
also would look into other recent
incidents, but he didn't specify
them. There has been anti-Ameri-
can rioting in Algeria and last
week rifle fire spattered around
the residence of the United States
ambassador in Haiti.

I' defled last Monday. It commanded
Judge Huff to relinquish his post
as presiding Judge in Saginaw to
Circuit Judge, Timothy C. Quinn
of Caro for one month starting
next Monday, and to take up1
duties on the Wayne County Cir-
cuit Bench for that period.
Shortly before, Justice Dethmers
had sharply rebuked the bachelor
jurist for his "contemptuous atti-
tude" and for dilatory execution of
h}is judicial office.
- Judgement 'Not Harsh'
"This is a sad day in the history
of judicial operations in Michi-
gan-in the annals of state his-
tory-and in no way because of
harsh or oppressive o'r arbitrary
conduct by this court," The Chief
Justice said.
' Justice Dethmers said Judge
Huff had allowed a backlog of
cases to pile up, had allowed mo-
tions to go undecided for a year
or more and driven lawyers else-
where in pursuit of reasonably
prompt justice for their clients.
To top it all off, he said, the
Saginaw judge had "flagrantly and
contumaciously defied and dis-
obeyed" a Supreme Court order,
with the purposeof putting things
right, he said.
"That, Judge Huff, is the record
on which must be judged any -ole
of maryrdom on your part," Jus-
tice Dethmers said.

WASHINGTON VP)-AFL-CIO's
President George Meany denied
Friday that his union is working
with unions previously expelled on
grounds of corruption.
Others in the big labor organi-

which two AFL-CIO officials ex-
plored a proposed waterfront
agreement with President William
V. Bradley of the International
Longshoremen's Assn., and Presi-
dent James R. Hoffa of the Team-

The longshoremen's union was

UNITED NATIONS, (AP)-Secre-
tary General Dag Hammarskjold
yesterday announced a sweeping
reorganization of the United Na-
tions Secretariat.
He will assume personal direc-
tion of the disarmament problem.
The shift of the disarmament
problem was coupled with an an-
nouncement that Anatoly Dobryn-

deparement previously handled
disarmament questions.
Other changes included:

tary in charge of trusteeship.
2) Assignment of Dragoslav
Protitch of Yugoslavia, now un-
dersecretary in charge of the poli-
tical department, to replace Co-

3) Transfer of T. G. Narayanan,
an Indian, from the political de-
partment to the office of the secre-
tary general as a personal assist-
ant on disarmament.

Defense Reorganization
Bill Approved, b Gou
WASHINGTON (M--The House Armed Services Committee yes-

D. Eisenhower most of the military command streamlining he asked,
but less than he wanted in administrative control.
President Eisenhower served notice that he will try to have the
bill reshaped on the House floor to conform more closely with the
recomendations he sent Congress two months ago. He did this in a
letter commending the committee's product "by and large."
With relatively minor exceptions, the committee bill would make

coup by the backers of Charles de
Gaulle, there is only "an outside
chance" of his coming to power
according to Prof. Preston Slossor
of the history department.
"The National Assembly is

"and it hasn't been overturnec

Possible Compromise
He said that there might be a
compromise which would send de

Prof. Slosson did not think de

France. "He is too rigid in his
