President Walter P. Reuther summoned an emergency session of the UAW-CIO policy commit- tee Wednesday to act on a re- quest that production workers honor picket lines of 3,800 strik- ing Ford foremen. The independent Foreman's As- sociation of America made the plea after its month-old walkout failed to close Ford's Rouge, High- lan Park and Lincoln Plants. There was no company com- ment on the latest development in the seven weeks dispute over terms of a proposed new contract covering the foremen. Specifically, President Robert H. Keys asked the UAW-CIO to respect FAA picket lines at the Ford plants, the Gar Wood In- dustries, Inc., in Detroit, and the Midland Steel Products Co. in Cleveland. If the UAW-CIO agreed, indus- try sources said the plants would be forced to close immediately. Keys admitted in his letter to Reuther that the strike had not gone as planned. He asked Reuth- er to reply by Saturday. Keys said that, at the outset of the strike, the FAA had not deemed it necessary to ask the UAW-CIO to respect its picket BULEIN ANN ARBOR, Mich., June 25-- (P-Professor Morris Palmer Til- ley, 71, professor Emeritus of Eng- lish Literature at the University Of MIcdigafi, died of a heart at- tack tonight.

Students Greeted I extend greetings to all students who are pursuing their studies at the University during this summerssip., Opened up before you during the next eight weeks are the manifold educational resources of this institution. We hope that you will make effective use of them for the enrichment of your experience, for the broadening of the bases of your understanding, for the deepening of your insight, and for the refinement of your capacities for appreciation. At no time in human history have the fruits of educational ex- perience been more intimately related to the welfare of man- kind. We hope that our joint efforts during the summer ses- sion can be predicted upon a realization of this all-import- ant truth. This is the high purpose for which the Uni- versity exists. James P. Adams Provost of the University Registration Passes 8,000) Incomplete registration figures yesterday placed the summer ses- sion enrollment at 8,737, an in- crease of 862 over a similar period last year. University officials estimate that the final enrollment will reach 10,- 000. Last summer's final figure was 9,874, including 545 veterans registered in refresher courses which are not offered this year. Late registration will be per- mitted the rest of the week on campus and for several days in the various summer camps and coop- erative programs with other state colleges. The 8,737 figure includes 5,178 veterans. The incomplete figures show a 7-2 ratio of men students to women, which beats last sum- mer's ratio of nearly 3-1. Men students number 6,764 and women 1,973. Standard Oil. Will Allocate cUrrent Output Forsee 15 Per Cent Cut for Consumers By The Associated Press CHICAGO, June 24-A shortage of gasoline in the face of grow- ing demand today forced Stand- ard Oil Company (Indiana) to allocate its output during June, July and August in 12 of the 15 states it serves, the company an- nounced., The allocation system, which will amount to approximately a 15 percent cut in the company's current distribution, is the first consumer restriction of its kind since gasoline rationing ended in August, 1945. The company said it could de- liver supplies this summer ap- proximately equal to those de- livered a year ago. However, current demand is about 15 per- cent above last year, it added. The shortage was attributed to inadequate pipeline and refinery capacities rather than any short- age of crude oil. "The making of very large amounts of heating oils during the past winter and spring cut ser- iously into gasoline yields during that period," the company said in a statement. "That reduction, plus unexpected heavy demand, particularly from the farm trade, has reduced the company's refin- ery and terminal stocks of trade to a level which is 30 percent be- low that of a year ago. "Also, in spite of intensive ef- forts extending over the past 'eight months, anticipatedle- chases of gasoline blending stocks during the summer are substantially less than the quan- tities which were purchased last. summer." Standard said the gasoline sup- ply situation was more acute in the middle west than elsewhere because of heavy farm consump- tion and because it had not been possible to expand crude oil fa- cilities in the area enough to take care of unexpected large refinery demand. Several pipeline and refinery expansion projects are under way, standard added, but will not be completed in time to meet sum- mer's demand. To supplement its own out- put, Standard said, it has for several months been buying ing products from. other man- ufacturers,bringing the equiv- alent of a trainload a day from Texas, and undertaking to move about 10,000 barrels a day of crude oil by tank car from west Texas and. Wyoming. Standard is the first major oil company to take such a step. In New York,a spokesman for the Phillips Petroleum Compan y, which serves the same territory, said no rationing was being con- sidered. The Texas Co., however, said it had no comment to make "as yet." Maddy Calls Lea Act Boon To Students The Supreme Court decision up- holding the constitutionality of the Lea Act was called a boon to music students by Joseph E. Mad- dy, president of the NationalMus- ic Camp at Iuterlochen, according to an Associated Press dispatch. The act, which has been known as the "Anti -Petrillo" law, was aimed at James C. Petrillo, presi- dent of the AFL American 'Feder- ation of Musicians. Maddy, who is professor of rad- io music instruction in the music school here, came in conflict with Petrillo in 1942 when the union leader demanded that union mem- bers be hired to "stand' by" dur- ing broadcasts of musical pro- grams from Interlochen. The Na- tional Broadcasting Company was forced to cancel the broadcast of Federal Officials Report Probe Of Sudden Coal Mine Walkout; Nelew Gasoline Restrictions Told LABOR BILL BECOMES LAW-Carl A.

Stoppage Follows Labor Bill Passage By The Associated Press WASHINGTON, June 24-Gov- ernment officials reported tonight the Justice Department is inves- tigating the sudden walkout of at least 168,000 soft coal miners to determine whether an injunction could be slapped on John L. Lewis and his union. This was reported as Rep. How- ard Smith, Dem., Va., told - the House the new Taft-Hartley labor' law may not be sufficient to stop the "national calamity" of a coal strike. The walkouts followed yes- terday's passage of the new lab- or law over presidential veto, and some miners raised the cry: "Let the Senators mine coal." Smith urged extension of gov- ernment plant-seizure powers. Also, the National Coal Asso- ciation said that a full-scale na- tional strike seems to be develop- ing, apparently in "a clear viola- tion" of the Taft-Hartley law, The bituminous coal pits will be under government operation until June 30 and the Supreme Court's decision of last March left the way open for another in- junction against the miners leader and United Mine work- ers if the Federal contract is broken by a strike. Technically, the miners were put on their "good lbehavior 'by the high court when it remitted all but $710,000 of the $3,510,000 contempt of court fines imposd ~y federal Judge T. Alan Golds borough for the strike last fall. The Federal officials, who asked not to be identified, said the Justice Department attor- neys were looking into the cur- rent walkouts to find out wheth- er the miners were idle of their "own volition" or under coach- ing from Lewis or other union leaders. The Taft-Hartley Act provides for the government to seek an in- junction to halt national emer- gency strikes, but the President would be required to appoint a first. That would require many days and possibly weeks. The Justice Department attor- neys were looking into the ques- tion whether an injunction could be obtained without using the new law. * * * Angry Miners Still Leaving pits in Protest PITTSBURGH, June 24-()- Angry coal miners protesting pass- age of union-curbing legislation were leaving the pits in continu- ing numbers tonight as idle total rose to more than 175,000 and coal production decreased proportion- ately. Alabama, where the walkouts started yesterday, counted all its 20,000 soft coal miners idle. Only three of the state's 82 rail-connec- ted mines-all three non-union- were working. In the nation's top-coal pro- ducing states, Pennsylvania had 41,000 idle and West Virginia, 31,000. Seven other states also were hit by the wildcat strikes. Virtually all the strikers are members of the AFL-United Mine Workers, although 1,700 progress- ive mine workers joined the walk- out in Illinois. The walkouts, which concentrated in the soft coal fields, occurred without union sanction. One operators' spokesman in West Virginia who declined use of his name predicted that half of the state's strikers "will be back on the job tomorrow." Walkouts in the pits hit the ste1 inri autcrv niiklv and hard.
