LX, No. 25-S ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 2, 1950 SIX FA 11 I I Senate Votes $100 Million Franco Loan Measure Needs House Approval WASHINGTON-(A)-The Sen- ate yesterday voted to let Spain have a $100,000,000 loan. It was one of the fe official Y friendly gestures that nation has had from the U.S. in several years. * * * SENATOR O'MAHONEY (D- Wyo.) proposed the loan, as an y. amendment to the giant $35,000,- 0000,000 appropriations bill. The Senate agreed, 65 to 15. The money would come from the government's export-import bank. Chairman Tydings (Dem.- Md.) of the Senate Armed Forces Committee said Spain is neces- sary to the defense of the U.S "in sheer realism, in sheer de- fense," Tydings said, "we should bring Spain into the orbit of the .western European countries con- bined with us." SENATOR MORSE (Rep.-Ore.) said the Senate was being urged to support a loan to Spain because this country might want air bases there. He said he looked upon this as an attempted bribe of Fran- Co. "I don't feel that we're going to win this war around the world if we support totalitarianism, be it Communistic or Fascist," Morse said. The U.S. withdrew its ambassa- dor from Madrid in 146 as a sign of disapproval of Gen. Franco. Court Rules CommUnist VerdictValid NEW YORK-(P)-A Federal Appeals Court yesterday upheld the Smith Act and the conviction under it of the nation's 11 top Communist leaders. The unanimous opinion of three judges was tuned to the times, citing the Korean war and Presi- dent Truman's latest warning against subversives. JUDGE. HARRIE. B.. CHASE praised Congress for its foresight in enacting the Smith act 10 years ago. He called American Commu- nists allies, if not tools of Soviet Russia. * Chase said the act does not outlaw the Communist party and does not outlaw revolution- ary thought. Under it, he added, a person may urge the abolition of Congress and the Courts, an end to freedom of speech and press and other changes in ba- sic American rights. "What it does prohibit," Judge Chase wrote, "is the urging of ac- tion to accomplish such changes as these by forcible means." THE 11 COMMUNIST leaders were convicted last Autumn of conspiring to advocate the violent overthrow of the United States government. That is a violation of the Smith Act. At the time of their convic- tions, they publicly vowed to cary their appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court. The Circuit Court of Appeals is the last stop before the high court. The convicted leaders are Eu- gene Dennis, John B. Williamson, Jacob Stachel, Robert G. Thomp- son, Benjamin J. Davis, Jr., Henry Winston, John Gates, Irving Pot- ash, Gilbert Green, Carl Winter and Gus Hall. * * r4' * * * * * GI's Start Be lgian Socialsts Call Halt to Strik4 Cheer News of Conditional Vic Leopold Capitulates in Compr BRUSSELS, Belgium-(IP)-Militant Socialist leaders with ,a conditional victory over King Leopold III, called Leopoldist strikes last night and started the near-prostrat back toward normalcy. Thousainds of Socialist workers gathered at party hea to cheer the news that the king was prepared to hand his reassumed regal powers to his 19-year-old son, Crown Pri douin, with the implication that Boudouin would become kin when he reaches the age of 21 Sept. 7, 1951. PRESUMABLY satisfied with the terms of a compromise reach- ed after a confusing 36 hours of on-again, off-again bargaining, the Socialist-led Belgian Trade Union Federation directed strik- ers to return to work today and end their demonstrations. Socia- list leaders have reported 500,000 workers - about one-fourth of Belgium's labor force - were on strike against the monarch, who returned only 10 days ago after six years in exile. Leopold's expected capitula- tion - abdication was implied only in the king's promissory note conditionally due-dated Sept. 7, 1951 - was regarded as a triumph for the Socialist-, worker group. In addition, the Socialists jubilantly claimed. three concessions from the pro-f Leopold Social Christian (Cath- olic) government. These were: 1-The release of all persons arrested in the disorders of the past few days. 2-No punitive action to be tak- en against public officials and civil servants who refused to carry out orders detrimental to the strikers. 3-A call for a national labor conference in Brussels Aug. 7-8, during which representatives of labor, employers, and the gov- ernment will discuss wage and hour demands. Joint Committee OK's AgeBenefits WASHINGTON-(P)-A House- Senate Committee gave its final approval yesterday to a comprom- ise bill blanketing 10,000,000 more workers under old age insurance, boosting benefits up to 100 per- cent, and more than doubling se- curity payroll taxes in the next 20 years. Chairman George (Dem.-Ga.) of the Senate Finance Committee said the measure, after 18 months' study in Congress, probably will be put on President Truman's desk next Monday, with final approval of the House and Senate.

Regulationst on TU' Recognitiont Membership lists filed by stu- dent organizations in order to ob- tain University recognition must be complete, but upon request will be kept confidential by the Of- fice of Student Affairs, the Stu- dent Affairs Committee decided yesterday. In its last regular meeting of the summer session, the Commit- tee voted that the membership lists, which .are regularly required of student organizations, must name all members. * * * , PREVIOUSLY, a few student or- ganizations had named only 30 of their members in order to com- ply with a rule which requires that number for University recog- nition. Under the new rule, the head of each organization must cer- tify that its membership list is complete as of the date of filing with the Office of Student Af- fairs. If the list is not complete, the organization will not receive Uni- versity recognition. Upon request of a recognized sudent organization, the Office of Student Affairs will treat its mem- bership list as confidential infor- mation - to be released only tc government agencies charged with the national security. Previously, the only student groups which could have confi- dential membership were political clubs - Young Republicans, Young Democrats, and Young Progressives.
