Stressing military, econom
ic and diplomatic "balanced

stall (R-Mass.) last night in a
speech here presented a six
point program for combatting
Communism. -
- The.. minority whip in the
Senate and a member of jthe Ap
propriations and Armed Services
Committees, the Senator spoke
under the , sponsorship of the
Carolina Forum.
"This nation's No. 1 problem
today is our" security," the law
maker declared in his Memorial
Hall talk. Tb meet Communism's
danger, he said: '
"1. We can never gain our se
curity through a program that
leads to isolationism or
"2. by a program that follows
a path of appeasement.
"3. -We ran only gain our se
curity by supporting our agree
ments by our actions, at least
until we know that the other
parties to those agreements do
not intend to do their share.
"4. We must move ever for
ward on a policy of strength and
confidence. Our actions cannot
be dictated by fear. We have the
strength, the resources, and the
tradition, materially and spirit
ually, to take the initiative against
all threats to our security.
"5. We can never make this
nation secure bv hesitation, fal
tering, backing-and-filling.
"6. We must strive for unity
of purpose and of action at all
times. There is a tremendous dif
ference between honest criticism
and mere obstructionism. The
former is vital in a democracy at
all times. The latter cannot be
tolerated when the safety of our
country and the security of oui
citizens are at stake."

Moving with almost phenom
enal speed for a budget session.
the Student Legislature last
night zipped through most of the
appropriations bill in record time,
cut only $306 from the recom
mendations of the Budget and Fi
nance Committees, and then pass
ed a budget of $55,926 for the
1951-52 academic year.
At-one point the group bogged
down for nearly an hour as UP
Floorleader Paul Roth tried to
breath financial life into the De
bate Council, which he chairs,
and failed. The budget contained
no appropriation for the Council.

quests. A $50 item for conven
tions was stricken from the Sen
ate's budget after Legislator Biff
Roberts pointed out that most
other organizations are forego
ing trips of this kind during the
present campus dollar shortage.
After SP Chairman Peggy War
ren explained that the Coed Sen
ate has asurplus of $2,400, Roth
moved to delete the $250 request
ed for the annual Coed Ball. The
vote was unanimous for his mo

which was to have gone for robes.
SP Floorleader Bill Prince charg
ed that the robes are frequently
worn "to scare defendants."
While the Budget-Finance Com
mittees' recommendations con
tained no appropriation for Tar
nation, the pocket magazine was
still listed in the budget since it
exists until the Legislature votes
it out of existence. The body did
so last night on a motion by Jim
Lamm.
Based on an expected minimum
average enrollment of 4,000 stu
dents next year, the $55,926.50
budget contains an unappropriat
ed balance of $2,348.50.
Roth pleaded for an appropri
ation of $1,000 for the Debate
Council.
Roth said that such a move at
the. present time is impractical
and would seriously impair the
Council in its work. He said the
Council had a surplus of $1,378
but would need a minimum of
another $1,000. The motion for the
appropriation was defeated 19 tb

v Secretary-Treasurer Banks Tal

get University financial support
failed, the Legislature would most
likely vote the Council an ap
propriation later on in the year.

handled was the setting of the
inaugural date for spring electees

by the Governor, Dr. Anderson
was cited as the University fac

the greatest contribution to the
welfare of the human race."

the first winner in 1949, Miss
Louise Brevard Alexander, po
litical science teacher at the
Women's College, and Dr. Robert
Ervin Coker of the University at

accord with the Executive Committee's actions" concerning lh
admission of Negro students to the University.

the public information officer

a shortage of officers with formal
training in this field, and it "was
believed that the University of

dio and photography courses

Hill by the Trustees' Advisory Committee on Admissions. It now
goes to the full Board at a special meeting April 4 at 10 a.m. in the
YMCA Building at State College.
The ruling affects only schools on the graduate and professional
level. This would mean that when Negroes are qualified, the Uni
versity would have to admit them to the Medical, Dentistry, and
Public Health schools. No such facilities for Negroes are provided.
The School of Nursing at UNC would not come under the pro
posed policy since it is an undergraduate course.
A University official said it is merely a question of time before
the Federal courts order admission of Negroes.
Where no possible opportunity for Negro graduate work exist;;,
their applications will be considered along with all the rest, the
policy provides.
The University at present is being sued by a Raleigh Negro who
says he was denied admission to the Medical School because of hk
race. Also, four Negroes have a case on appeal to obtain an injunction
which would force the University to admit them to its Law School.
Last fall, Federal Judge Johnson Hayes ruled in Middle District
Court that facilities at the Negro law school in Durham were equal
and denied their petition. It is now being reviewed by a Federal
District Court in Richmond. Va.
May 17,1948 the Board of Trustees adopted a resolution stating:
"Be it resolved by this Board that it is premature for it to consider
any applcation of a Negro for admission to any University graduate
school until after the individual qualification and competitive stand
ing of the applicant have been determined in the usual and custo
mary manner."
The Advisory Committee which met Wednesday in Chapel Hill,
"deeming it desirable that explicit clarificaton be given to the reso
lution," passed the following for presentation to the Executive Com
mittee. It in turn passed it during a two hour and a half session
today.
The text:
"1. The dean of each graduate or professional school will be re
sponsible for the formulation of rules and standards of admissions
for student applicants. Such rules and standards shall be consider
ed with the purpose and function of the Consolidated University
of North Carolina as disclosed in the State Constitution and statutes
and shall include scholarships, residence, and character require
ments. In each case the rules and standards shall be submitted to
and approved by the Chancellor and by the Chancellor submitted
to the President of the Consolidated University.
"2. In all cases of application for admission for members of racial
groups other than the white race to the professional or graduate
schools when such schools are not provided by and in the fctate
of North Carolina for such racial groups, the applications shall be
processed without regard to color or race and the applicant accepted
or rejected in accordance with the approved rules and standards of
admission for the particular school."

On Election Policy

policy on covering the coming

fit of candidates, political par
ties and readers.
YW Sets Meeting
In Gerrard Hall
A general Association meeting j
will be held for all members of
the YWCA Monday in Gerrard j
Hall at 5 p.m. j
The Nominating Committee will j
present its slate of officers for j
Y positions for next year. Nom
inations for these offices may
also be made from the floor. The
formal elections will take place
in the women's dormitories later
in the week.
The YWCA Cabinet will meet
Monday at 4, o'clock.
"It is up to the candidates and
the parties to see that they get j
play and space equal to their op
ponents," Hauser said, "not up
to this newspaper to see that they
get equal space. We will guar
antee only that they will get
equal treatment and consider
ation." The Managing Editor contin
ued, "If one candidate says more
and does more than his oponents,
he will get space proportionately.
It is up to the opponents to make
their news. Our job is just to
report it."
The Daily Tar Heel will give as
complete coverage of the cam
paign and the election as pos
sible. Hauser said. "We believe
the election is of prime import
ance to the students, and should
be of prime interest to them," he
declared. "Naturally," he added, "our
coverage will be completely un
biased. If anyone thinks the news
columns of this newspaper are
being used to promote one party
I or any individual candidate, I
want him to come up here and
i say so. If we have allowed any
biased writing to lip through
our deskmen, we will take stepi
to correct it."
