Son Of Tsarist Diplomat Says: Communist Danger Within By GARRY B LAN CHARD The historian son of a Tsarist diplomat, discussing "The Rhythm of Russian History," says in effect it's been one darn swing after an other. Dr. Andrei Rostovsky, professor emeritus of the University of Michigan and currently visiting professor of history at Davidson College, says the history of Rus sia has been one of "slow accumu lation and violent release." There have been five such major swings and explosions, he says, the last one being the Communist revolution of 1917. The others, he feels, oc curred roughly in 1240, 1480, 1700 and 1860, with each being caused by the rise to power of a strong leader.

Oran has been a center of OAS resistance and it was there secu rity forces captured renegade Gen. Edmond Jouhaud, leader of the extremist forces in Oran. In Paris a special military court convicted Jouhaud for his part in the activi ties of the OAS. In Friday's action the army set up a heavy guard on the main roads of the port city to block any escape route to members of the OAS. It also ringed the central downtown area while the search continued . Gendarmes moved slowly and methodically through the section in search of remnants of the OAS. There was no announcement on the number of OAS terrorists rounded up or the quantity of arms and ammunition captured. It -was in Oran ' Thursday that security forces fought a five-hour street battle with the OAS in a major blow- against -the secret group that has resorted to a cam paign of terror to block Algerian independence and to try to keep Algeria a part of France. . Graduate History Club Thursday there are indications that Russia has begun a new swing, although where it will end up and when the next explosion will occur, there is no way of telling. Communism's central danger especially in Russia is from with in, the historian said, as the men it has made scholars arc beginning to question its basic beliefs. Dr. Rostovsky said Russia is be coming more and more conserva tive hecause her leaders wish to safeguard Communism's material arrorrmlishments. and her people want no more of the strife that has punctuated the last 45 years of Russian history, uui ne warnea that this change in manner does not mean there has been a change in goals.

Interviews for committee chairmen will be held April 16 and 17 between 2:00 and 5:30; committee members will be considered after spring holidays between April 10 and May 4. The president and vice presi dent emphasized the importance of the committees in carrying out much of the planning and direct action of the executive and legis lative branch. "It is through these active bodies that all students have the oppor tunity to participate in the pro grams of their student govern ment," Lawler stated, who further pointed out that the committees provided students with " a chance to express their personal interests and the needs of their particular living areas.

Unfriendly Brothers Dr. Rostovsky expressed doubt that the apparent split between Russia and Red China is the re sult of a historic conflict between the two nations as columnist Walter Lippman recently suggest edbut is instead the result of Russian expansion eastward and Chinese expansion westward. In any event, he said, "Russia and China are sticking together like two brothers who hate each other but realize that they need each other. The main difference between the two Red giants, he said, is that China is still in the first, or mili tant, stage of Communism, while Russia has advanced to the co existence stage. Dr. Rostovsky fought in the Rus sian Army during World War and against the Communists in the 1917 Russian Revolution.

Both Allen and Vice-President Mike Lawler expressed their con fidence in McDevitt by saying that the "best man had been appointed for the post." McDevitt may be unconsciously following in the footsteps of SP presidential candidate Dwight Whe less as he fills the office that Whe less attempted to use as a spring board to the presidency this spring. Both Were Floorleaders Wheless held the post last year and was also floorleader of the Stu dent Party in the Legislature as McDevitt is floorleader of the Uni versity Party now. It is expected that he will have a major role in carrying Allen's proposed legisla tion to the floor of the Legislature. Lawler, who defeated McDevitt for the vice-presidency in a runoff election this spring, said that he was encouraged by the appoint ment in that, "Larry is a hard worker and brings with him a broad background of experience in student government.

The clincher was the surrender of U.S. Steel Corp., which started the price parade ' Tuesday night. ' The company, by far the nation's biggest producer, rescinded its $6 a ton increase late Friday after noon. Second-ranking Bethlehem Steel already had done so. . It was a tretmendous victory, for Kennedy, who, cold with anger, had denounced big steel Wednes day for its . "irresponsible defi ance" of the public interest. He and his aides used a combination of; public denunciation and back stage missionary work to achieve their goal. The President was in Norfolk, Va., attending U.S. Atlantic Fleet maneuvers, when he was informed of Bethlehem's action. He beamed with delight. The U.S. Steel announcement was made in Pittsburgh by its presi dent, Leslie B. Worthington. He said "the price decision was made in the light of competitive develop ments today and all other current circumstances including the desire for the removal of a serious ob stacle to proper relations between government and business." Inland Steel Co. and Kaiser Steel broke ranks first by an npuncing they would not hike their prices. This created a competitive situation which Board Chairman Rcger Blough of U.S. Steel had acknowledged Thursday might force the big companies to change their plans. There was no detailed word as to the . Kennedy's administration future course now that it had won its battle. But a spokesman said the Justice Department would go ahead with a grand jury investiga tion to see if the industry had vio lated the antitrust laws. whole." Committee Overseer As presidential assistant, Mc Devitt will be responsible for over seeing the work of all student gov ernment committees. He will also be responsible for informing Allen on the actions of the Legislature and will handle all correspondence coming into the President's office.

UNC Economist Steel Hike 'Crucial' UNC Econoist Milton S. Heath says that the current case of the steel price increase involves two major points for consideration: whether this is a matter of cost price increase, justifiable on its own merits in a market-guided system; or whether it is a matter to be settled politically. The economic problem, accord ing to Professor Heath, is whether the costs of steel production have risen during the recent period of stable steel prices to the extnt stated by Roger iBlaugh, chairman of the United States Steel Corp. If such is the case, he says, then an increase in steel prices would appear to be a justifiable adjustment to change in costs, which is what an economist would expect in a free price market Not Price-Wage Specialist Emphasizing that he is not a 'specialist" on matters involving price-wage increases, nor on all the facts underlying the current U.S. Steel decision which has re nemy ast Lecture 5, ..... v G Appropriates $600 For To Six hundred dollars was appro priated by the Legislature Thurs day night . to pay tuition costs for an African student to study here next year. The remainder of the student's expenses will be paid for by the federal government. The appointments of Larry Mc Devitt as Presidential Assistant and Carol Clayton as president of the Women's Athletic Association were approved unanimously at the start of the two-hour session. The body heard a resolution from the Di-Phi advocating the creation of a second house of the Legisla ture to pass resolutions on national and international affairs, and de claring that the present legislature should confine itself to issues that directly concerned the campus. Fourth On List Speaker Mike Lawler also read the body a communication inform ing the members that the Legisla ture had received fourth place on the weekly Designation List of the Chez Hickory Senate. Five posts were filled by elec tion as George Rosenthal (SP) and John McMillan (UP) were named to the Consolidated University Com mittee; Haines McFadden was se lected as a member of the Graham Memorial Board of Directors, and Jean Yoder and Charles Cooper were elected to the Publications Board. Says: sulted in the raising of prices by other steel companies, Professor Heath said, nonetheless, that it is a "crucial decision." The decision can have all kinds of ramifications, he said. "I wrould be inclined to think," he stated, "that they would have been loathe to raise their prices unless they actually were squeezed." Economic Disagreement "These problems are matters about which economists differ greatly," he said. "Economists differ about the basic causes of such price decisions." He said that the trend of costs and prices of the economy is upward, and rather than accept lower prices and wages, both industry and labor would rather have unemployment. "These upward pressures raise costs," said Professor Heath. "The people who can not make the 'up' turn to government," he said. By this, he means industries and la borers turn to the government for Study At i pic 3 John Schnorrenberg Photo by Jim Wallace African UNC African Student Debate In the debate over the African Student Bill, introduced by Larry McDevitt, the body was asked for swift action on the bill due to the fact that university officials had unintentionally committed UNC to participate in the program before the funds were available. It was then brought out that the funds must definitely be available by. Monday if UNC were to partici pate, and that the Legislature was the only place the money could be found on such short notice. During the debate, the body heard Goettingen Scholar Ditmar Schnit ker speak of contacts he had had with African students now studying in this country who had said that it would be better for the United States if they had stayed in Africa. Students Not Accepted He said the students stated that nowhere in this country had they really been accepted as equals and friends, and that the family of one of the students had stayed with had been slowly isolated from their friends. He spoke at the re quest of Beth Wallace (SP). Schnitker said in answer to a question from the floor that he was in favor of the bill, but that he wanted the legislators to know what they were getting into. Decision assistance. "To answer the question of the steel price increase, one needs to analyze all the facts," said Pro fessor Heath. "Economists are now living in a new price-structure world where the price-cost rela tionships and monetary costs mean all kinds of kcw relationships of cause and effect," he said. Deep Causes Of Increase "The basic causes underlying the steel price decision go far deeper than the immediate situa tion," he said. "Furthermore, we must remember that the decision under a free enterprise economy and in the light of the facts as they see them, is after all the re sponsibility of the steel company executives," he said. "It may be that the fundamental issue is whether steel companies must make adjustments to market forces or to much broader eco nomic and political forces with which the government is primarily concerned," he concluded. in
