Peaceful Uses Seen'
As F4ture Objective
PARIS (A'). - British scientists
were reported yesterday to have
discovered how to control for
peaceful uses the awesome power
released in hydrogen explosions.
Diplomats of three nations said
Britain's government Is preparing
to announce soon some details of
what has been described as a con-
trolled hydrogen reaction.
New Power Source
In the United States, leading
American scientist said he believes
Britain may have found the secret
of tapping the heavy hydrogen in
ordinary sea water as an unlimited
s8ource of .power.
oScitentists at.Britain's Harwell
""lerresearch station long have
*eeworking on ;methods to de-
velop containers that could with-
8tafnd the tremend'ous heat created
by a hydrogen explosion.
The British Atomic Energy Au-
thority reported cautiously several
weeks ago that some progress had
been made toward harnessing tlie
#'-bomb. That announcement said
the scientists of both Britain and
the Ulited States had made pro-
gress in etperiments aimed at pro-
ducing hydrogen power inside a
laboratory.
Disclosure Demandea
Nothing further has been dis-
closed officially. Under a tripartite
agreement, Britain, the United
tateg and Canada are bound to
declassify nuclear secrets only
after they are sure the Soviet
Union will not benefit from the
disclosure.
The London News Chronicle this
week said British scientists had
created an 'artificial sun. It de-
manded that the dscovey be
mae public.
A ritish Prime Minister MacMil-
lan /said In a television speech
Monday British scientists working
on the civilian use of hydrogen
explosions may be heading for "a
completely new source of power
absolutely unknown before." He
added that its raw material "could
be got out of the sea itself."

Fate of Beck,
Teamster Boss
SEATTLE (/P) - The grand lar-
ceny case against Dave Beck, 63-
year-old president of the Team-
sters Union, went to the jury yes-
terday.
The fate of the wealthy, one-
time delivery boy was put in the
hands of seven men and five
housewives.'
Beck's trial began . go.
He is accused of embezzi, 00
from the ^sale of 'a union ed
Cadillac.
Before they. retired, the jurors
weeurged by Beck's attorney to
disregard "frenzied, insane prop-
aganda" against the Teamster
chief.
The state, in turn, described
Beck as a "would-be great man"
who sacrificed loyal employes to
save himself.

WASHINGTON (P-The Pentagon's missiles chief disclosed yes-
terday the United States is planning to put a half-ton earth satellite
into orbit, but didn't say when.
William M. Holaday also told the Senate Preparedness subcom-
mittee that the government has given national priority to perfection
of the intermediate-range ballistic missile.
Atlas Program Accelerated
"We are accelerating the Atlas program," he added. The Atlas
is an ICBM designed to carry a nuclear warhead, to targets 5,000 miles
or more away. It is being develpped by the Air Force. Holaday was

JAKARTA; Indonesia (A)-Indo-
nesia's army chief ordered a halt
yesterday to the seizure of Dutch
businesses and threatened severe
punishment if his orders were dis-
obeyed.
The effect of his decree remain-
ed to be seen.
The action of Maj. Gen. Abdul
Haris Nasution, army chief of
staff, was announced after Presi-
dent Sukarno, smiling but tense,'
made a personal; appearance to
disprove reports that he had been
ousted by a triumvirate and made
a prisoner of the army. -
Sukarno's Departure Runiored }
Earlier, it had been announced
that the 56-year-old Sukarno is
leaving the country within a week
to recuperate from mental and-
physical exhaustion.
Premier Djuanda, a Socialist
nonparty man, asked Parliament
to. swear in Speaker Sartono, a
56-year-old moderate Nationalist,
as acting president, but a govern-
ment spokesman indicated the
Premier and Gen. Nasution ac-
tually will run things.
' These contradictory statements
left observers in the dark as to,
what actually was happening be-
hind the scenes. "
Orderly Seizure Planned
Gen. Nasution's orders to all
military commanders directed
them to take supervisory control
of seized Dutch enterprises in an
orderly way and to bring all prob-
lems in connection with the super-
vision to' the central military ad-.
ministration and the government.
It further directed military ad-
ministrators to mobilize experts,
including Dutch citizens, under
martial law regulations to assure
the smooth operation of the super-
vised firms, but not to employ
Dutch nationals formerly in the
armed services or intelligence. He
said this restriction was for se-
curity reasons.

Senate Group resumed its investi-
gating of why the United States
has falled behind the Soviet Union
in some sections of the missile and
satellite fields.
He acknowledged that it was a
mistake not to use the Army's suc-
cessful Jupiter-C missile, an IR-
'BM, in an effort to put a satellite
into orbit as early as September
1956. The first Soviet Sputnik went
up last Oct. 4.
Army Preparing Satellite
The Army has now been assigned
to get a satellite up with a modi-
fied Jupiter-C as soon as possible.
Hoiaday asserted this country
has the same ability as the Soviet
Union to launch a large-size satel-
lite. It was at this point that he
disclosed the plans to send up a
half-tonner. Sputnik II, with its
dog aboard, was reported to have
weighed slightly more - 1,120
pounds.
Edwin Weisl, committee counsel,
asked Holaday whether the United
States has a motor or motors with
enough thrust to lift a 1,000-pound
satellite. "The Russians did it,"
Weisl told him.
"I believe we have the same
ability," Holaday replied. "I would
not like to disclose any date at this
time."

The national priority now given
to the two classes of ballistic mis-

Ike Leaves
For NATO
Conference
WASHINGTON W) - President
Dwight D. Eisenhower left yester-
day for Paris and the summit
meeting of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization.
Lobking relaxed and smiling
broadly, Eisenhower showed no
outward sign of disturbance over
heavy anti-NATO propaganda at-
tacks from the Rssians, any
more than he exhibited any super-
stition over this being Friday the
13th.
Eisenhower's admittedly , tough
job is to strengthen the Western
Alliance, which has been shaken
by a number of events including
differences between the Allies and.
Russia's new military-scientific
advances.
His big plane, the Columbine
III,' lifted him and his party from
National Airport as dusk gathered.
The White House said that only
the customary safety precautions
were being taken on the flight,
even though a bad storm has been
raging over the North Atlantic.
Three of the U.S. Navy ships
from the Atlantic Fleet and a
Coast Guard ship are stationed in
the Wstern Atlantic on the line
of flight, while three British ships
and a U.S. Navy destroyer line the
eastern end of the route.

last night, before 5,000 fans.
These same two teams will go

Last night's win was determined
early in the game with all the

period.
The Wolverines got off to a 2-0
lead after only 12 minutes of play
had passed. From the start of the
game, however, the Nodaks kept
the pressure on Michigan's goalie,
Ross Childs and the defensemen.
Last night's game was the league
opener for both the squads, and
the Wolverine victory marked a
win for Coach Al Renfrew over the
team he coached last season.

submitted Ato the Regents.
Regent Roscoe O. Bonisteel of
Ann Arbor noted that In estab-
lishing the Institute,,"we in no way
expect to lessen our progress and
efforts in other educational fields
such as the humanities.
'(We are here today adopting a
program to meet an imnediate
educational need in scientific fields
of knowledge-in the interests of
our national secuity and, we hope,
ultimate peace.""
Begin Work Immediately
President Hatcher said work?
would begin immediately -on the
Institute but declined to specifi-
cally state when it could get into
operation.
He indicated an operational bud-
ge't of about $2% million could be
expected. The state legislature will
be asked for basic funds to run
the Institute but business and in-
dustry, private individuals and the
federal government will also be
approached for financial support.
Goals Outlined
Specifically, the report outlines
five major goal for the Institute:
1) Serving as a center for
scientific And technological in-
struction, research and service at
the collegiate and post-graduate
level. It would be staffed by Uni-
versity faculty members and out-
standing new men who could be
attracted to the Institute.
2) Establishing and administer-
ing a system of scholarship grants
for graduate and undergraduate
students who desire to devote
themselves to teaching or to re-
search in the fields of technology
and science. This would be based
upon a most thorough and careful
search of the entire state.
3) Carrying on research in meth-
ods of increasing the effectiveness
and extent of scientific education
at all levels.
4) Co-operating with other edu-
cation institutions in the state,
both public and private, to en-
courage scientific and technologi,
cal research and instruction.
Scientific Cooperation Cited
Staff members and nationally
known scientists would be given
time from teaching duties to work
with high schools, other colleges
and universities and even elemen-
tary schools in an effort to stimu-
late and encourage interest in
careers in science.
5) Attempt to extend the co-
operation of business and industry
in furthering the purposes of the
Institute, especially as they relate
to future industrial and business
development in the state.
Early concentration is planned
in the areas of radio-astronomy,
computing, and data processing,
rocket and missile development,
nuclear physics, high temperature
metallurgy, biology of the living
cell and upper atmosphere re-
search.
A state-wide advisory committee
broadly representative of educa-
tional, governmental, labor, indus-
trial and business interests'in the
state was also recommended.

Group Urges
Trip to Moon
The Rocket and Satellite Re-

members of the University faculty,
has urged the government to work
toward expeditions to the moon.

By THOMAS HAYDEN
A gallery of 200 persons viewed
a Japanese art treasure at the ar-
chitecture building.
What they saw was not balanced
on a pedestal, however. Nor was it
carefully preserved behind a bar-
rier of glass.
Instead, they saw a pair of
hands, nimbly going about the
task of creation.
Ceramist on Tour
Those hands belonged towToyo
Kaneshige, one of the world's
foremost ceramists, who is visiting
the University this week as part of
a global tour. He fashioned sever-

base of art," he explained.
Seeks Contemporary Spirit
Kaneshige pointed out that Jap-
anese culture is rich in tradition.
To keep that tradition alive, 'I
must capture the contemporary
spirit of art," he declared.
"In the past Japan was my lim-

e Buildi
ifed world," Kaneshige continued.
"Now with communication and
transportation improvements, the
whole world is my environment
and I must travel to discover this
true contemporary spirit."
Kaneshige, 61 years old, was
born in Imbe, Japan, with 77 gen-
erations of pottery makers pre-
ceding him in his family.
Relates Father's Training
He said that his father never
taught him the craft, "I was al-

reflected. Kaneshige recalled how
he would go up into the mountains
to find clay and "process" it under
his stamping feet. At first, he
