College Drinking Habits Revealed in Yale Survey By The Associated Press The old notion that American youth get their indoctrination into drinking at college has been exploded by a recent Yale University research program. The study revealed that four out of every fiVe college men who drink acquire the habit before they enter college. With women, the ratio is approximately two out of three. OTHER SURVEY findings showed that the probability that a Ex-Premier Takes Over Iran Again Mossadegh Out Of Government TEHRAN, Iran- () -Ex-Pre- ier Ahmed Qavam, a rightist who led Iran safely through perilous disputes with Soviet Russia in the wake of World War II, succeeded Mohammed Mossadegh as premier yesterday. The change in leadership pos- sibly may bring a settlement of the long quarrel between Iran and Britain over Mossadegh's nation- alization last year of the billion- dollar Anglo-Iranian Oil Com- pany's Iranian properties. * * * MOSSADEGH resigned the pre- miership after the Shah, Moham- med Reza Pahlevi, rejected a bid of the frail but iron-willed Na- tionalist leader to become his own War Minister in a new cabinet. The lower house of Parlia- ment, the Majlis, nominated Qa- vam in a secret meeting boy- cotted by 25 or more pro-Mossa- degh deputies. The major problem Qavam in- herits is Iran's near-bankruptcy, brought about by the oil national- ization policies that' Mossadegh once forecast would lead to gen- eral prosperity. Mossadegh presumably wanted to hold the War Ministry reins to see that Iran's 130,000-man army and her little navy and air force, recipients of American aid, go down the line for Nationalist aims. Qavam, 77, was Premier in 1946rand 1947. He pressed the Security Council fight that led to the ouster of Russian troops from the border province of Az-. erbaijan and rejected subsequent Russian demands for the right to exploit oil resources in north- ern Iran. Qavam is regarded as pro-West- ern and long dimmed hopes of an Iranian oil settlement flickered to life again in London. After the collapse of talks with Mossadegh's government, various Britons expressed belief' that a settlement could come after the fall of that government. The case is now before the International Court of Justice at the Hague. U.S. To Study Employment WASHINGTON-(I)-The gov- vernment announced last night it is launching a study of business and employment prospects after the peak of the defense build-up about 12 months from now. The giant rearmament program is recognized as a major factor in American prosperity today. The immediate aim, Secretary of Commerce Sawyer said, is to appraise "potential markets for goods and services which will be available or may be stimulated after the present defense build-up has been completed." And the goal behind that, he said is to guide the way to con- tinued operation of the U. S. econ- omy at high production levels. Just Lonely WASHINGTON-P)-Mrs. Bess Truman hurried back to Washington to the hospital bedside of her mildly ailing hus- band yesterday because she thought "Harry might be lone- some." Arriving by train from Inde- pendence, Mo., Mrs. Truman was driven directly to the Army's Walter Reed Hospital. There, in the plush Presidential Suite, her husband was patient- ly undergoing a series of tests that might show, among other things, whether his strength has " been sapped by seven gruelling years in the White House. Negotiators Start Secret Truce T'alks By The Associated Press Allied and Red truce teams re- sumed their off-the-record nego- tiations for a Korean armistice yesterday after a four-day recess, called by the Communists. They returned to the confer- ence tent at Panmunjom amid ex- pectations that the Communists might make a new move to break the deadlock of exchanging pris- oners of war. * * *S THE MEETING lasted 41 min- utes and there was no announce- ment of what took place in the secret talks. Both sides agreed to meet again at 11 a.m. tomorrow (10 p.m. to- day Ann Arbor time.) The prisoner exchange dispute alone blocks a cease-fire. The Communists obtained a two-day recess in the secret ses- sions Monday, and on Wednesday got it extended another two days. The four-day break touched off speculation that North Kor- ean Gen. Nam Il and his fellow Red delegates would return to the conference tent with fresh instructions from the Commun- ist capitals that could break the deadlock. No one in official position at the UN truce camp at Munsan would predict the turn of events. WITH THE war-front at Seoul, Allied troops battling through drenching rains hurled back a tank-supported Communist attack against old Baldy Hill early today in Western Korea. The weather cut down Allied air strikes to almost the minimum. Weather reconnaissance planes roamed far to the North but most of the war planes that went out were aimed at the battle front. OPS Staff Cut By Large Amount WASHINGTON-(P-The Of- fice of Price Stabilization disclos- ed yesterday that its enforcement staff will be slashed about 60 per cent in personnel dismissals made necessary by Congressional cuts of the agency's operating funds. The agency outlined in a de- tailed statement its over-all plans to release 6,150 of its approxi- mately 12,000 employes by Sep- tember 1. RUSSELL L BOR BY STY lD Estes Likely To Pick U Labor Votes Big Fight Comes Over Civil Rights CHICAGO -(R)-- Sen. Richard B. Russell's bid for union labor support with his promise to over- haul the Taft-Hartley Law began to backfire yesterday among Dixie delegates to next week's Demo- cratic National Convention. Signs appeared that Russell's strategic flip-flop - he voted or- iginally for Taft-Hartley and against a Presidential veto - might react in favor of a major rival, Sen. Estes Kefauver of Ten- nessee. ** * RUSSELL was sticking to pre- dictions that he will capture the Democratic nomination with the help of hard core Southern: sup- port. But on a television program last night he said he knows no reason why he could not support Presi- dent Truman if the President should run again. Kefauver wasn't budging from his stand that the party will tap him. And a third entrant in the race, Mutual Security Director Averell Harriman, hopped into town with his own victory prediction. More are on the way. Vice President Alben W. Barkley and Sen. Rob- ert S. Kerr of Oklahoma are due today. BID young person will drink at all is cl Apprehend Secretary's Murderer NEW YORK-01)-An Air Force veteran obsessed with a theory for prolonged life was brought back in handcuffs yesterday to New York where he says he killed a blinde he didn't even know on the Columbia Universty campus.+ BayardP. Peakes, 29, strode off a train from Boston, appearing al- most to drag a detective to whom he was handcuffed. HE WAS brought back here aft- er confessing orally in Boston to } killing a pretty blonde Miss Eileen Fahey, 18, last Monday. Police rushed him to the district attor- ney's office. Boston police said Peakes, who received a mental dscharge from the Air Force, told them he just "wanted to. kill someone" after the American Physical Society, which employed Miss Fahey as a bookkeeper, refused to look at a thesis he wrote. At frst Peakes told police his thesis explained "how to make men live 500 years." Later he referred to it as a book on "how to live forever." He was outraged, police said because no one at the Society would look at his work. Miss Fahey, a bookkeeper, was * lot to death at her desk in the American Physical Society office on the campus as she read the first of three letters she had received earlier that day from Pfc. Ronald Leo of the First Marine Division in Korea. Reputed Oil Cartel To Be Investigated WASHINGTON- )-Attorney General James P. McGranery an- nounced last night a Federal Grand jury will investigate a re- puted international oil cartel in- volving seven of the world's larg- est oil companies. McGranery told a news confer- osely related to the practices of his or her parents. Data obtained from 17,000 students in 27 colleges and uni- versities showed that of men whose parents drink, 90 per cent are themselves users. But when both parents abstain, only 51 per cent of the male students drink. Women seem more inhibited by parental habits, the survey point- ed out. When both parents drink, 83 per cent of the women drink on occasion, but when both parents abstain, only 19 per cent drink. Advice from parents was report- ed as much stronger than that of church leaders or teachers. * * .* FAMILY INCOME is another factor related to drinking habits. It was discovered that when fam- ily income is low drinking is com- paritively low, and vice versa. Apparently that had some- thing to do with choice of bev- erage, for 72 per cent of the male drinkers said they drank beer while only 47 preferred it. On the female side, wine was the more frequently expressed preference. Forty-one per cent drank beer, but only 17 per cent favored it. Daily-Jack Bergstrom SUMMER RECEPTION-President and Mrs. Harlan H. Hatcher and a hostess greet summer ses- sion students at a reception held in their honor last night. More than 500 students attended, filling the reception line, the Hatcher dining-room and the lantern-decked garden. W orld News By The Associated Press DURBAN, South Africa-Six Africans who attended a wedding in Natal Province's thorn bush country two days ago were apparently battered to death when a quarrel flared up among the guests, police said yesterday. Authorities called to the native reserve where the incident oc- curred found only the bodies of the victims, surrounded by drunken old women. Police said the weapons used might have been "knobker- ries," primitive knobbed sticks used by the natives as missiles. * * * * * GOOSE BAY, Labrador-Two WASHINGTON-The Office military air transport service of Price Stabilization last night Sikorsky H-19 helicopters today authorized higher wholesale ceil- completed the second leg of a ings on veal steaks, cutlets, and precedent-making flight from roasts and lower ceilings on rib the United States to England chops, shoulder cuts and breast and Germany.

"By next week, auto plant un- employment may be greater than depression levels," the tradepa- per forecast. July output may total only 160,000 cars and 40 trucks, and if the strike continues, "August production totals may be virtual- ly nil," the trade journal gloomily predicted. There were no indications yes- terday of an early break in the strike. General Motors Corp., which is still operating at sharply reduced production schedules, is emptying its supply lines, it was reliably re- ported. Students Keep Cool THE CRUCIAL civil rights fight got under way yesterday, with Southerners biting their tongues At first, then pitching in on argu- ments before the committee that will put together the Democratic Platform. Mrs. J. V. Alderman, a dele- gate from Jacksonville, Fla., flared up when Aubrey Williams said the way the South treats Negroes is "a disgrace." Racial discrimination in the South, Mrs. Alderman declared, can be laid to "carpet baggers from the North." Besides civil rights, bitterness over labor questions and delegate contests bubbled just beneath the Democrat Tally Not counting the 70 votes tied up in contested Texas and Mississippi delegations, the As- sociated Press tally of the dele- gate lineup stood like this last night on the basis of pledges and known preferences on the first ballot: Kefauver 256 votes Russell 120, Harriman 112 Kerr 43 Stevenson 43 Barkley 29 Needed to nominate 618. surface display of calm and har- mony - in Chicago and as far away as Roanoke, Va. HERE IN THIS Convention City, various organized labor lead- ers were passing word to reporters that they still are afraid of Rus- sell, despite his announcement Wednesday night that he favors supplanting the Taft-Hartley Law with new legislation on which labor and management might agree. Union spokesmen let it be known that they would be inclined to accept Kefauver in preference to Russell-if "Fair Dealer" Har- riman can't make the grade.

According to the Lansing Bureau HIGH LIQUOR CAPACITY: British Night Life Very Much Like A merican By BARNES CONNABLE Special To The Daily LONDON-It's nothing like New York, but people get around here at night. The lights are less bright, the girls less pretty and the shows less brassy. Yet Londoners manage to consume more liquor after dusk than we thought was humanly possible. * * * * . WE STOPPED in at the French-flavored Pigalle which boasts the best floor show in town. The star was a blonde singer who claimed she'd just arrived from Paris but was as American as you or us. Costuming and choreography were as classy as the cream of Manhattan's night clubs, but there was one rather essential weak- ness-you had to look at the middle of the chorus line to find a female who measured un to American standards. .::: _:
