Morros said neither his wife nor

'Panr-Slavism'
"I say Russian plot because the

Morros described Pan-Slavism
as "the bill of goods which has-
been sold to the Communist lead-
ers in control of all the Slav coun-

lites."
"The present regime in Moscow
has been hatching a vast imperi-

WASHINGTON (P)--The Senate last night passed a bill authoriz-
ing $1,445,285,000 in military construction projects throughout the
world.
The authorizations passed by voice vote included $1,203,412,000
in new military projects, compared with $1,603,072,000 voted by the
House. The difference will have to be worked out between the two
chambers.

RUMORS
Hint Death.
Of Molotov
LONDON (AP)-An American stu-
dent who was in Moscow for the
World Youth Festival said last
night he was told of rumors there
that ex-Foreign Minister V. M.
Molotov had committed suicide.
George Abrams of Newton, Mass.,
telephoned The Associated Press
in London from Helsinki, Finland,
and said he heard the story from
several sources:
Abrams explained a man who,
talked to him said he was an inti-
mate of Dmitri Shepilov (also a
former Soviet foreign minister)
and that he had heard Molotov
had. committed suicide.
"The next day I was told the
same thing by another man," he
said.
"The other Americans at the
festival toldme they heard the
same story."

on American cities in a major war.
-<.Sen. Stennis, floor manager for
the bill, is chairman of an Armed
Services subcommittee which has
taken months of closed-door testi-
mony on United States military
installations.
Theiquestion on the Nike system
of, anti-aircraft missiles, now in-
stalled around many large Ameri-
can cities, was raised by Sen.I
Stuart Symington (D. Mo.), a
member of the full Armed Services
Committee.
Sen. Symington asked if the
Nike system were not obsolete.
Sen. Symington aslked if it were
not correct that $3 billion had
been spent so far on Nike with an
additional seven billions in pros-
pect.
Sen. Stennis said he believed
the figures were supposed to be
secret, but that it amounted to
"many billions."
The bill included an appropria-
tion of $10,659,000 for longer run-
ways and other new facilities at
Bunker Hill Air Force Base near
Peru, Ind.
Bunker Hill will be equipped to
handle a wing of B47 bombers
from the Strategic Air Command,
scheduled to mover in next year
from MacDill Air Force Base,
Tampa, Fla.

ECONOMY DRIVE:
Pentagon Anunounces
 Civilian Payroll Cut
WASHINGTON OP)-The Pentagon yesterday announced pew
economy moves that will cut 20,000 from the Air Force civilian pay-
roll and reduce the aircraft industry work force from 910,000 to about
800,000.
These steps were tied into precise spending limits set for the
Army, Navy and Air Force by the Defense Department to keep the
military within the $38 billion ceiling fixed by the administration
for the fiscal year which started July 1.
The Army appeared to have borne the brunt of the economy push.
It was assigned a spending limit of $8,950,000,000, which is $;20
million less than President Dwight D. Eisenhower earmarkod for the

Department yesterday warned the
youths that going through with,
their planned trip to=- Red China
"would be subversive of United
States foreign policy..
The. strong statement was made.
at a news conference by Lincoln
White, department press chief.'.,
White said the Americans, part
of 150 who attended a Communist-
sponsored World Youth Festivalin
Moscow, are well aware of the,
United States ban on travel to
Red China.
And, he declared, "all of them
are old enough to know what
they're doing,"
Against Policy
White said "travel to, Red China
is not only contrary to passport
regulations in force, but would be
subversive. of the well-known for-
eign policy on which these pass-
port regulations are based."
The United States refuses diplo-
matic recognition. with China's
Red Communist regime and holds
travel to the China mainland to
be "not in the American interest."
White. refused to say what the
State Department might do if the
youths defy the 'ban.
Give WarningsG
His words went beyond warnings.
of possible actions given the Amer-
icans by United States' Embassy:
ofmcials in Moscow.
More than a dozen called at the
embassy for advice. All were told
they might be guilty of passport
misuse and violation of the "trad-
ing with the enemiy" regulations,
with consequent heavy fines and
possible loss of passports.
White noted news reports that
some of the youth delegates,
rather than go so far as to hand
over their passports to Red
Chinese officials, were copying per-
tinent information from them on
separate sheets of paper.
Called 'Gimmick'
He called that a "gimmick," and
said it still bonstituted use of the
passport '- the thing specifically
banned by regulations regarding
Red China travel.
Fred Grab, Alexandria, Va., who
gathered up the passports of the
six defiant students said the Chi-
nese claim they must have the
passports for proper identification
purposes. The Chinese have prom-
ised not to stamp visas on the
passports.
The trip will take eight days.
After arriving in Peiping the'
delegation will visit various prov-
inces and then return to Peiping.

MANAMA, Bahrein ()-The white flag of the rebel Imam of
Oman was reported flying over only one last village of clay huts in
central Oman yesterday.
The red banner of the Sultan of Muscat and Oman was seen flying

But the neighboring village of Jabrin was still believed in the
Imam's hands. North and south columns of the Sultan's British-led

Muscat and Fahud is now open.
A small cache of anti-tank mines

City To Study
Ways To Fight
Asiatic Flu
Ann Arbor City Council last
night heard a suggestion from
councilwoman M. Alicia Dwyer
that city officials study the pos-
sibility of making provision for
operation of city services in the
face of the predicted influenza
epidemic.
Refering to a Harper's magazine
article recently placed in the Con-
gressional Record, Miss Dwyer
said it is conceivable that a large
portion of such service organiza-
tions as the Police Department or
Fire Department might well be
struck at once and that it might
well prove wise to be prepared in
advance for such an eventuality.

The airline had chartered the

short of matching the worst char-
tered crash in history, which oc-

ACCUSATIONS:
Probe Hits
Dio's Pal
WASHINGTON (R) - Anthony
Doria, a true and constant pal of
labor racketeer Johnny Dio, was
accused to his face yesterday of
putting $9,620 of union money to
his own use.
Doria immediately and loudly
denied it.
The charge was flung by Car-
mine S. Bellino, staff investigator
for the Senate Rackets Investi-
gating Committee.
It came toward the end of a day
which had been given over largely
to testimony by Doria that Dio,
a convicted extortionist, actually
was a good and softhearted fellow
who broke down and cried when
his henchmen were caught thiev-
ing.
The senators didn't appear im-
pressed.

Army in his budget submitted to
Congress last January.
However the Air Force, with a
revised spending allocation of
$17,900,000,000, will be permitted
to spend $300 million more than
the budget estimate. And the Navy
will be permitted to spend $11
million more than the original es-
timates for a total of $10,400,000,-
000.
The Air Force allocation, al-
though higher than the original
estimate, falls about $1 billion be-
low what Air Force officials were
saying last month would be re-
quired to pay for their approved.,
programs if costs continue to rise
at the rate 'they increased during
the spring.
Both the Air Force and the Navy'
had expected to spend more than
the original budget to meet the
rising costs of weapons, , planes,
missiles and aircraft. ,
The Defense Department's allo-
cations for its own and for inter-
service . activities were increased
by $24 million to $750 million. The
Pentagon said the addition will
cover increased spending for mili-
tary housing.
News Strike
Mediation
No Success
BOSTON P) - Representatives
of the Mailers Union and publish-
ers of six metropolitan newspa-
pers met with labor conciliators
at the State House yesterday but
neither side "would give an inch"
to break a three-day strike that
has shut down the dailies.
Massachusetts Labor Commis-
sioner Ernest A. Johnson, who re-
ported the deadlock, said "We are
trying to set up a joint meeting
for Wednesday."
This would indicate that the
papers - the morning and even-
ing Globe, the morning Herald,
evening Traveler, morning Record
and evening American - would
not be publishing at least until
Thursday.
The Christian Science Monitor,
published in Boston, is not in-
volved in the strike and has with--
drawn public sale of its editions,
Johnson said the union still is
standing by its request for an $8
a week raise for this year with a
wage reopening clause next Jan-
uary. Management has offered
$4.50 this year and $3.50 next.
Boston radio stations have
stepped up their newscasts. They
also have reported a jump in ad-
vertising - much of it from retail
stores and theaters.

Both Houses
Represented
At Session
Smith, Fulbright
Hit ,Compromise Bill
WASHINGTON (A)-President
Dwight D. Eisenhower held an un-
announced conference with con-
gressional leaders of both parties
last night in an effort to get'
foreign aid funds increased at th
session of Congress.
The President met at the White
House with Senate Democratic
Leader Lyndon B. Johnson, Sen-
ate Republican Leader William
Knowland, the majority and m-
nority leaders of the House and
six other lawmakers from the Sen-
ate and House.
The White Housedid not an-
nounce the meeting but press sec-
retary James C. Hagerty, asked
about it, said it took place from
6 p.m. to 7 p.m. and concerned the
foreign aid bill.
Of the President's attitude, Hag-
erty said: "He wants to get a.
much as he can."
House and Senate conferees
have agreed on a foreign aid au,
thorization bill setting a eeiling
more than half a billion dollars
below the Eisenhower request for
economic and military aid during
the fiscal year which began July
1.
Sen. H. Alexander Smith (R-
N.J.) said during the day that he
feels "the country may be in dan-
ger" as a result of the cut of
nearly $00 million.
Sen. Smith told the Senate that
if the subsequent appropriations
bill to finance foreign aidspend-
ing brings further cuts the Pres-.
dent and secretary of state may
have to appeal for emergency
money later.
Because of the refusal of the
House conferees to go any higher,
Sen. Smith said the Senate is
compelled to reduce the dollar
figures "beyond the point of
safety."4
Sen. William Fulbright (D-Ark.)
already has indicated he will pro-
test the compromise report-which
he refused to sign - when it is
brought u2 in the Senate for ap-
proval today.
Carillon, Band

Burton Recital
An effect which had its begin-
nings in the days of the German
"tower bands" will be culminated
in recital of carillon, brass, and
percussion at 7:15 p.m. today from
Burton Tower.
According to Prof. George Cav-
ender, director of the Summer
Session Band, the grouping of
carillon, brass, and percussion is
unique.
Prof. Cavender noted that the
arrangements to;be played were
created by Prof. Percival Price,
University carillonneur.
Commenting on the "carrying
power" of the brass and percussion
instruments, Prof. Cavender said
"It's amazing how far the effect
can be heard."
Concerning the history of "tower
concerts" such as the one to be
played this evening, Prof. Caven- 1
der said the town musicians of
medieval German towns would
give concerts from the city tower,
Arrangements for today's recital'
