Peace Patrol 1
Must Include
Big Powers'
Soviet Delegate
Makes Demand As
Sponsors Stall
LAKE SUCCESS, Oct. 17 (T)
Andrei Y. Vishinsky demanded
today that the big powers, in
cluding Russia, be given seats on
a proposed U. N. Peace Patrol
Commission. But sponsors of the
American-supported plan turned
him down until they can see how
the Soviet Union will act on theii
whole anti-aggression program.
Vishinsky spoke in the 60-na
tion Political Committee of the
U. N. Assembly after a 40-minutc
closed-door session with Johr.
Foster Dulles, American delegate
and on2 of the chief framers oi
the anti-aggression resolution.
The two delegates were smiling
after their talk but it appeare:
they had reached no agreerhen
on the program, known in thf
committee as the seven-point
proposal on "United Action foi
Peace." .
After the meeting, Dulles is
sued this statement:
"We talked over some of out
differences regarding the unitec
action for peace resolution. Ther
was a full and frank exchange o
views without positive results
other than a better understanding
of our respective positions."
Before he passed out the state
ment Dulles showed it to Vishin
sky, who said it was the way he
felt about it, too.
Vishinsky opposed a section of
the seven-nation .proposal callin?
for U. N. members to maintair
military units for an emergency
call from the U. N. He saio
troops should be put at the. dis
posal of the Security Council un
der the charter and not at the
beck and call of the Assembly.
After a luncheon conference o
the seven sponsors of the resolu
"tion, Lester B. Pearson, Canadiar
Foreign Minister, gave the an
swer to Vishinsky's demand. He
said it would not be wise now tc
accept any proposal which woulc
determine the members of the
peace observation commission
which the seven countries have
offered as a way of quickly in
vestigating trouble spots in thi
world. -

RALEIGH, Oct. 17 Whether
or not the Durham Bank and
Trust Co. will be allowed to
open a branch bank in Chapel
Hill is scheduled to be decided
in Raleigh tomorrow when the
State Banking Commission will
consider its application.
The briefs of the Chapel Hill

be considered as a determining
factor in the decision.
State Banking Commissioner
Gurney Hood conducted a
hearing on the proposed branch
in Chapel Hill last month at
which time representatives of
the local bank and of the Bank
of Chapel Hill appeared.
The Chapel Hill bank, in
fighting the proposal, called on
numerous Chapel Hill citizens
who spoke against the opening
of a branch bank.
Representatives of the Dur

signed by various Chapel Hill
merchants urging the estab

called on other townspeople
to speak in favor of the pro

Talks For Peace
On Return From
Confab With 'Mac'
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 17 (P)
President Truman boldly pro
claimed tonight this country's
readiness to fight Russia anywhere
in the world to put down aggres
sion and preserve "our free way of
life." -
The American people, he said
in probably the toughest speech
he ever has delivered, "hate war,"
but "love our liberties," and "will
not see them destroyed."
He pledged this country's grow
ing military might to support the
peoples of all Asia to help "attain
and defend their independence.'"
In an address broad enough to
cover an offer of troops to India,
Nationalist China, Indo-China, or
any other country under danger
of Communist attack, Mr. Truman
bluntly warned Russia:
"We want peace. But it must be
a peace founded on justice." .
He made it clear, however, that
the United States will not hesi-
tate to so to war at any point in
the Far East or elsewhere over
the globe if this step is necessary
to preserve the independence of
free nations.
The President scornfully con
trasted this country's offer to the
Far East of a "partnership of
peace" with Russia's desire to turn
Asiatic peoples into "slaves of a
new imperialism."
- He warned Russia that the Unit
ed States will not hesitate to go
to war to resist aggression and de
fend "our liberties."
Speaking in San Francisco's
War Memorial Opera House where
he witnessed the signing of the
United Nations Charter five years
ago, Mr. Truman, fresh from his
dramatic Wake Island conference
with General Douglas MacArthur,
declared he was confident "in our
long-range ability to maintain
world peace." .
His talk was the United States'
answer to Soviet progaganda at
tempting to picture this country
as "aggressors" in Korea heralded
the reopening of a new phase of
his "campaign of truth" designed
to force Russia to make a realistic
bid for peace.
National Security
Talk Tonight
The University branch of the
American Society for Public Ad
ministration will present John D.
Millet of Columbia University at
a meeting in Room 105 Caldwell
tonight at 7:30.
Millet will speak on "Organiza
tion for National Security." All
students and interested persons
are invited lo attend the meeting.
All Naval and Air ROTC mem
bers especially should be inter
ested, professors at the units said
yesterday.
In the last few weeks, Freed,
who not only directs but shoots
many of the scenes-himself, has
been riding around the campus in
his yellow convertible, which now
serves as , a projection platform,
shooting scenes for the production.
Seward says the main purpose
of the picture is "to show the
people in the state just what their
University at Chapel Hill is like.
Many people don't know the hun
dreds of services that this Uni
versity offers to its state citizens
and this picture will help show
the people what the University
offers," he pointed out.

Radioactive
Death Dust
Is Possible
Hydrogen Bomb
Could Do Job
Says Scientist
) CHICAGO, Oct. 17-(P)-An
atomic scientist questioned today
that a hydrogen bomb could be
rigged to destroy all human life
tn . earth with death dust. But
he added:
""It is possible, however, that
the vast majority of the race can
be killed off in this way, although
a full-scale effort by a major
country over many years would
be required."
Dr. James Arnold, physical
chemist of the Institute For Nu
clear Studies, University of Chi
cago, expressed this view in the
Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists.
Some other scientists have con
tended it is technically feasible
to construct a weapon that would
spread lethal radioactive dust ov
er the face of the earth. They es
timate that somewhere between
500 and 10,000 tons of heavy hy
drogen would be necessary for
this explosion. The neuti-ons re
leased from the heavy hydrogen
Would then radioactiyate. a spe
cial metal casing and hurl it into
the atmosphere in the form of j
fine radioactive, dust that would
spread around the earth with
the winds.
Arnold contended the cost of
obtaining the heavy hydrogen
would run between $200,000,000
(m) and $40,000,000,000 (b).
However, he contended that uni
form distribution of this "dust
would be impossible and that
many areas would be left rela
tively clean.

Faced with an enrollment fi
gure less than anticipated in the
budge.t for 1950-51, the Budget
Committee yesterday requested
all organizations to cut budgets
by 15 per cent.
Student Body Secretary-Treasurer
Banks Tally said yesterday
the reason for the cut was the

400 below the 7,200 estimated in
this year's budget.
Anticipated block fee revenue
from the estimated figure was

Jim Lamm and Ralph . Waddell,
both SP men, between them are
bound to capture at least one of
the seats banning any disqualifi

Soviets Face
Big Problem:
Red Coeds?
Oct. 17 (P) The question of
separate education or coeduca
tion in Russian schools is a
burning issue among .Soviet
teachers.
The public also has become
interested as a result of a series
of articles in the Literary Ga-.
zette.
Since 1944, there has been
separate education for boys and
gir,ls in Moscow and in most
other large Russian cities. Be
fore that, in the larger cities
there was coeducation. In rural
schools and in smaller towns
the question of separate educa
tion has never been introduced.
The Literary Gazette earlier
this year questioned whether
separate education (introduced
on a frankly experimental bas
is) should be continued at all
even where it exists.
A major article published by
this paper, which has no direct
connection with education but
is the organ of the Soviet Writ
ers Union, advanced the argu
ment that in socialist society
women work beside men all
their lives whether in office or
factory, and that preparation for
getting along together should
begin right in school.
It also made the point that
separate education burdened
facilities unnecessarily by re
quiring more staffs and build
ings for handling an equivalent
number of students.
The Liteiary Gfezette asked
for comment from teachers and
later printed some of the con
trasting letters which it re
ceived. Then in an editroial it sum
med un the results of the debate
and said the answers showed
that about 98 per cent of those
concerned favored a return to
coeducation, with only about
two per cent for retaining the
present system for Moscow and
other big cities.
The paper criticized Minister
of Education Kairov, for refus
ing to discuss the issue.
The Literary Gazette said that
coeducation must be reintro
duced where it is lacking now
and said that this must be done
by the beginning of the next
school year.
Cementing
Relations
Is Subject
By Chuck Hausor
DURHAM; Oct. .17 A'
riendly group of students
he Carplina-Duko Amity Con-
erence got together here on
he Duke University campus
under the formidable title of
tonight to discuss ways ofc ce
menting better relations be
tween the next-door neighbor
schools.
The meeting was the latest in
a long series of conferences be
ginning about 1933, designed to
timulate friendship between the
two schools and prevent out
breaks of vandalism which have
narred relationships between the
nstitutions from time to time.
Present from Carolina were
President John Sanders, Vice
President Herb Mitchell, Head
Cheerleader Joe Chambliss, Uni
versity Club President Jerry
Sternberg, Interfraternity Coun
cil President Dale Morrison,
Grail Delegata Bill Roth, and
Sid Turner, representing the In
terdormitory Council.
Dean of Students Fred Weaver
represented the Carolina admin-
stration at the meeting. From
the Duke administration were
Herbert Herring, vice president
n charge of student affairs and
lean of Trinity College, Dean
if Men Bob Cox, and Assistant
Controller Hendrickson.
Representing tne Duke student
body were YMCA President Dan
Blalock, IFC President Jark
Blackburn, Head Cheerleader Bill
Wood, and Jim Briggs, head of
the Freshman Advisory Coun
cil. President Jim Young visited
the dinner meeting briefly, but
had another compulsory meet-
ng to attend.
Blalock, who presided during
he evening, keynote the -! i -;
"russion with a wish that the time
vould soon come when a meeting
to discuss better relations and
elimination of vandalism would
be unnecessary.
Before the evening was over,
the talk had swung to plans for
more meetings between repre
sentatives of the neighbor schools
l.o talk' about common interests
-snd problems, and to bring -the
-tudent bodies as close together
n spirit as in geographical dis
tance.
The group agreed that any un
portsmanlike acts of vandalism
occurring between schools st?m-
ned from an extreme! v f inal I pa
rentage of the student body. The
ob of various student leaden; is
to get the word to that, small
oercenetage that not only dors
vandalism hurt the school who ."
-.tudents commit it but studerrfi,
:onvicted of any such acts will
?c severely punished.
The problem of persons outride
he student bodies of the f.vo
;chools causing any trouble vas
hscussed at length.
