Legislative
Session Ends
In Michigan
LANSING - Republicans had
their eyes more on the 1956 elec-
tions than on the 1955 legislative
session as session business was
concluded yesterday.
The lawmakers, returning for
the two-day cleanup meeting re-
quired by the constitution, com-
pleted their work and most of
them went home.
A few will remain to hear the
gavel fall on the 1955 session at
noon today.
Committee Created
The Senate Republican caucus
ordained a five-man Campaign
Committee created and said a sim-
ilar one would be installed in the
House.
Avowed purpose of the com-
mittees would be to fight for con-
tinued Republican control of the
legislature in the face of growing
Democratic successes.
For the first time, it was re-
vealed, the Republican State Cen-
tral Committee is expected to con-
tribute money to legislative cam-
paigns ,- at least in doubtful
districts.
The Senate Committee will ap-
portion the funds to candidates,
act as a research and legislative
arm of the main campaign, organ-
ize a speakers' bureau and gen-
erally aid distressed Republican
candidates.

WASHINGTON (P) - Yesterday
the Senate passed an armed forces
reserve bill aimed at building up
a combat-ready reserve of 2,900,-
000 men by 1960.
Active reserves, including the
National Guard, now number a-
bout 800,000.
The roll call vote was 80-1, with
only Sen. William Langer (R-ND)
voting no.

teaching materials.

THE UNIVERSITY of Michigan
Woodwind Quintet will give a pub-
lic faculty concert Wednesday,
July 20 at 8:30 p.m. in the Rack-
ham Lecture Hall.
Members of the Quintet are:
Nelson Hauenstein, flute; Albert
Luconi, Clarinet; Florian Mueller,
oboe; Clyde Carpenter, French
horn; and Lewis Cooper, bassoon.
Eisenhower will get, at least in
limited form, legislation he had
tabbed near the top his "must"
list.
The House already has passed
the bill but it will return there
because of changes made by the
Senate.
However, both Senate and
House voted for 9 key provision of
President Eisenhower's program.
This would permit youngsters
aged 17-20 to volunteer for six
months of active training to be
followed by 7Y years of service
in an active reserve unit. Such
volunteers would be exempt from
the regular draft.
Adjustment Sought
A Senate-House conference com-
mittee is expected to try to adjust
differences in the programs ap-
proved by the two bodies.
Chief of these is the question of
compelling men who have com-
pleted active military service as
draftees or volunteers to do addi-
tional training with reserve units.
The House approved compulsion
for all service men drafted or
enlisted since the Korean armis-
tice, July 27, 1953.
Service vs. Escape
In the Senate, it was argued
that this would require double
service liability for veterans while
thousands of draft-age men es-
caped all military duty.
The Senate voted instead that
30 days after the bill becomes law,
any man entering the service
through the draft or enlistment
could be forced to take active re-
serve training on completion of
active duty.

Simultaneously, the "Young
Turks" in the House made a bid
for a voice in selecting top Re-
publican candidates in 1956.
Rep. George W. Sallade (R-Ann
Arbor) said the Young Republicans
would meet at his home in Ann
Arbor in about three weeks and
later hoped to embrace original
Eisenhower supporters, backers of
State Republican Chairman John
Feikens and' similar Liberal Re-
publican groups.
Sallade said the "Young Turks"
will be looking for a "Young vigor-
ous and progressive" candidate for
fthe Republican nomination for
governor and will seek "New faces"
for other state offices.
Democrats Silent
The Democrats were idle and
silent in the windup session except
for Sen. Harold M. Ryan (Dem.-
Detroit), the Senate floor leader,
Who complained that not one reso-
lution sponsored by a Democrat
had come out of committee.
The Legislature by resolution
directed fiscal officers to give State
Highway Commissioner Charles M.
Ziegler his additional gasoline tax
money monthly instead of quar-
terly.
No attempt was made to override
any of Gov. G. Mennen Williams'
five vetoes.
