Premier Abdel Gamal Nasser has seized all Brit
ish and French assets, including oil wells, on
Egyptian soil.
Egypt froze the two countries assets while the
world's nations were gathered at a special session
of the United Nations to consider an American,
proposal for a ceasefire in the" Middle East.
It was reported late last night that English and-,
French forces had landed in Egypt to protect the
Suez Canal and their oil interests from the Egyp
tians. Meanwhile, in the United Nations, countries lined
up and spoke their minds about the situation in
Egypt, where this week British and French forces
moved in to help Israelis in their push toward the
Suez Canal. ,
Sir Pierson Dixon of Britain told the United Na
tions his country's action was a "temporary drastic
intervention in a most grave situation."
The U.N. Security Council did not have the
strength, said Dixon, to act quickly and sufficiently
enough in the situation, so England and France
went ahead in an "emergency police action."
Britain and otheT nations - were commenting on
an American resolution to condemn the aggressors,
call for cessation of land and air operations iniati-"
ated by Britain, France and Israel and insist on the
three nation's withdrawal from 'the area.
From Radio Reports..
President Eisenhower last night said Adlai Stevenson's plans for
decreased draft and a ban on H-bomb testing were "no plan for
peace."
Rather, the President said, the Democratic candidate had ad
vanced a "design for disaster."
The Republican candidate for reelection spoke at Philadelphia
in his last formal political speech. Part of the 30 minute talk was
devoted to Stevenson and the turbulent Middle East.
"We cannot and will not condone aggression" no matter who is
involved, said Eisenhower, obviously referring to British, French,
and Israeli raids on Egypt this week. I
Even though the United States may disagree with the British
and French, he said, the "bonds' among the three countries "must
grow to greater strength" in the future.
Egypt is considering withdrawing from the United
Nations, Radio Moscow reported this morning.
Grounds for the hinted withdrawal are that the
U-N. is incompetent to stop aggresion. Egypt al
ready has severed diplomatic relations with France
and England.
Other nations' sentiments:
Russia called Britain and France "aggressors" and
supported the U.S. resolution.
Egypt called the situation a "plot" among Israel,
France and England.
Ceylon, a member of the United Kingdom, was
"shocked" by the action of another member of
the British Commonwealth.
Syria said it was a "plot contrived (by Israel
with Britain and France) behind the back of their
most faithful ally, the United States of America
. . . This aggression was carefully plotted and pre
meditated by two powers of the Council."
The United Kingdom described as "false" charges
that it had plotted with France and Israel.
Secretary of State John Foster Dulles presented
the American resolution calling for an immediate
ceasefire.
Adlai Stevenson, Democratic candidate for the
Presidency, said the Middle Eastern situatior re
flects bankruptcy in American Foreign Policy.
Never in American history has it been such a com
plete failure, he said in a political speech aimed at
President Dwight Eisenhower.

Pay telephones will be installed
in all men's dormitories, according
fo- an announcement made at Wed
nesday night's Interdormitory
Council meeting.
The overall installation of pay
telephones in place of non-pay
phones in men's dorms is a re
sult of the recent difficulties which
arose when dorm men placed long
distance calls from non-pay phon
es, President Sonny Hallford said.
The Durham switchboard of the
Southern 'Bell Telephone Co. com
plained that although such calls
were not being completed, switch
boards were being tied up while

made.
Installation of pay phones will
begin in the near future, according
to Hallford.

Friday As
Peacemaker
President William C. Friday has
been featured in the education
section of the Nov. 5 issue of Time
Magazine as the "peacemaker" in
the Consolidated University.
Time stated that one of the
surest ways a board of trustees
can anger the faculty of a uni
versity is to pick as president a
man who has never been a schol
ar, ..earned a Ph.D., or taught a
class.
On the resignation of Gordon
Gray last March, Friday was ap
pointed acting president, and for
oermanent president the board be
gan to search for a name with a
ood deal of academic prestige.
According to Time, Friday re
stored the peace by mending the
rifts which had split the three
branches of the University, and
jradualy it became obvious that
he was the man for the presi
dency. On his election, not a single
orofessor even hinted at an ob

The present class attendance reg

spring of 1955. It allows students
a maximum of three cuts per class.
Class attendance regulation
which governed cuts prior to in
institution of the present regula
tion allowed professors to use
their own discrimination in allow
ance of cuts. Unlimited cuts was
the term used to describe the reg
ulation. A proposal promulgated from a
presidentially appointed Commis
sion to Study Class Attendance
Regulation last spring was defeat
ed by the Faculty Council.
The proposal had been endorsed
by the student Legislature.
Primary objection to the propos
al as put forth by the Commission
,at:t snr;nE, was its stimdation call-

ing for taking away of quality
Otherwise the proposal called
for unlimited class cuts for third
and fourth year students.

at the conference which will be

were as follows: The end of the
union program is that of all cur
ricular and extra-curricular col
legiate activities, education union
urograms should attempt to meet
the needs of all students, special
orogramming efforts must be
urned towards increasing and
mproving student-faculty rela

ecommendod that no program

and the union should never hesi
tate to supplement the program
of other campus groups nor to co
operate where union resources
can help to effectively present
