Editor Turkatenko
By HUBERT HAWKINS
"'Why should we conquer the
world?" asked TASS editor Niko
lai Turkatenko in a speech on the
dissemination of Soviet news
Thursday night.
"The basis of wars has always
been economic," the New York
correspondent explained, "and
what does the Soviet Union need?
Disarmament for purely egotis
tic reasons. We need the money
now used for defense in other
areas of the economy."
The moderate audience in Car-J-oll
Hall greeted the 10-year TASS"
newsman with cool applause. The
auditorium was silent as Turka
tenko "lectured" informally on the
problems of news agencies in the
U. S. and Russia. An informal

, Will Insist
On Disarmed Cuba
WASHINGTON (UPD The Unit
ed States will insist that Russia
remove the bulk of several thous
and Soviet troops from Cuba now
that offensive missiles and bomb
ers have been taken out, informed
sources said Friday.
For the moment, however, the
administration was not pressing the
troop issue with the Soviets, be
cause Premier Nikita S. Khrush
chev has indicated he intends to
remove them of his own accord.
President Kennedy told his last
news conference Nov. 20 that U. S.
intelligence had a few days earlier
discovered the presence of "Soviet
ground combat units" in Cuba.
Associated With Weapons
Kennedy said the United States
was "informed" these troops were
"associated with the protection of
offensive weapons systems and will
also be withdrawn in due course.
Kennedy did not say so, but it
is now known he was informed of
Russia's intention in a letter from
Khrushchev.
U. S. officials have not pressed
the troop issue while first the mis
siles and the bombers were being
removed from Cuba. They prefer
red 'to take things on ' a step-by-step'
bafsis. "' "
Intelligence estimates of the
number of Soviet troops placed in
Cuba during the weapons buildup,
which began in mid-July and led
to the October Cuban crisis, run
up to 13,000.
No Cubans Ditchdigging
These included missile techni
cians and even laborers, since the
Russians did not let the Cubans
do anv work on the medium and
intermediate range missile sites
even ditchdigging.

, Concerning objective coverage.
he said, "I am confident that we
cover events in the United States
better than American correspon
dents cover Russia."
"TASS is often blamed for being
late," he later emphasized, "but
never for being untruthful."
s "A writer cannot choose what
should or should not be reported,
he cannot make a partition in him
self. His job is to tell the whole
story as he sees it. The facts are
there; but of course how you un
derstand the facts will depend on
your outlook."
. To a question on censorship un
der Stalin, Turkatenko said, "He
did use it, very skillfully and very
gravely. During the war there was
a very rigid censorship machine
inside the press. Though this was
formally abolished after the war,
I would presume these people were
still left in their places. We did
have them, nobody liked them.
"Anyway, they are not working
anymore," he said. "They were
not sent to the salt mines, as you
say, But I suppose they found the
atmosphere warm."
. A student said that Radio Mos

movements in American universi
ties, one of them UNC, and asked
if TASS was responsible for the
distortion.
Turkatenko replied, "You may
think you have self-respect and
honor in these matters all to your
self. If so, you're wrong. I have
never heard of such a story."
"I don't know what was report

National Review
Editor Buckley
To Speak Here
William F. Buckley, who first
provoked public attention through
his best-selling book, "God and
Man at Yale," will speak in
Memorial Hall Monday at 8 p.m.
Buckley, now editor of the "Na
tional Review," a magazine which
seeks to revitalize conservatism,
will speak on "Freedom and the
Welfare State." The lecture is
sponsored by the Carolina For
um. At 37, Buckley has three books
to his credit, and his work has
appeared in many leading na
tional magazines. His writing
career began at the age of six
when he wrote a letter to King
George V suggesting that Eng
land pay its war debt.
Perhaps more than anyone else,
Buckley has given the Conserva
tive movement a stir in a number
of college campuses. He chal
lenges the "New Frontier" but
realizes that his ideas will not
sweep across the country over
night. He founded the "National Re
view" in 1354 to "keep the left
from winning by default." He
directs' the counterattack against
"The Nation," "The New Lead
er," and "The New Republic."
A graduate of Yale University
in 1950, Buckley was chairman
of the Yale Daily News, class
day orator, and key man on the
debating team that beat Oxford.
"God and Man at Yale" was
published in 1951.
In 1954, Buckley co - authored
"McCarthy and His Enemies."
His most recent book, "The Com
mittee and Its Critics" was pub
lished in January of 1962.
Inspection Offer
'Not 'Made Red Says
GENEVA (UPI A Soviet
spokesman said Friday an offer
had been made to permit inter
national inspectors into Russia to
police the "black box" method of
detecting nuclear explosions. Lat
er he denied the Soviets had ad
vanced such' an offer.
It appeared the Soviet delega
tion had sent up a trial balloon
and then shot it down themselves.
At any rate, U. S. negotiator Ar
thur H. Dean said the West never
would accept such an offer with
the strings the Russians attached
to it.
Soviet spokesman Alexei Roschin
plunged the conference into con
fusion by telling newsmen negotia
tor Semyon K. Tsarapkin had of
fered to permit installation of the
black boxes for automatic detec
tion of seismic movements in
three Soviet areas and allow inter
national inspectors to check them.
Roschin said Tsarpkin called it
a "major concession" since the
Soviets had refused on all other
occasions to permit any form of
international inspection on the
grounds it would amount to espion
age. Then Roschin blandly told
newsmen later Tsarapkin had in
tended to make such an offer but,
in fact, had not.

To say the least, it Js difficult
to make this play seriously accept
ed by a modern audience. The fact
,that it ran for seven years on
Broadway seems more indicative
of the perversity of the audiences
than the quality of the play. To
day, however, audiences are so
surfeited with so-called "Southern
Gothic" literature the play is quite
refreshing as a parody, when iron
ically enough, it was one of the
prototypes.
Whatever one's opinion of the
play the production was very en
tertaining, though perhaps miscon
ceived in some ways. Lloyd J
Borstelmann as Jeeter Lester gave
a one-dimensional portrayal that
concentrated on the comic rustic
elements to the detriment of the
role and the play. What ie did
was good, but the play needed
more. The audience should .sot

point of the play is missed. He -hadled the same weakness. He was

Some Western sources speculat
ed the Soviets may have planted
the idea as a trial balloon. They
conditioned it on a withdrawal by
the West of demands for inspec
tion on the spot of any suspected
underground nuclear explosion.
"We . . . cannot accept such an
agreement," Dean said. He had
received word of the Soviet "of
fer," from newsmen.
Dean said the purported offer
was an attempt to persuade the
West to accept "some unclear, un
defined system of automatic seis
mic stations to monitor under
ground weapon tests" while bow
ing to Soviet insistence on-the-spot
inspection was unnecessary.

Lawlcr Requests
Restoration Of
Student Rule
By JOEL BULKLEY
Student Legislature Thursday
night resoundingly approved a res
olution "calling for student re
sponsibility in regard to the ad
ministrative action concerning the
'Beat Dook" Parade."
The resolution, introduced by
Harry DeLung (UP) passed by a
vote of 31-1.
Mike Lawler, author of the res
olution and Speaker of the Legisla
ture, reaffirmed the right of stu
dent government to have jurisdic
tion over and responsibility for all
campus affairs, including the ir-
responsible or ungentlemanly ac-
tions of any members of the stu-
dent community.
JLawier stated mat U-u pnaes
itself on the tradition of student
society, founded upon student re
sponsibility, and that the adminis
tration's intervention and arbitrary
action denies student action.
He said that this course of ac
tion by the administration was in
bad faith with the concept of "our
government by compact" and with
the principles of student responsi-
1 bility. He also emphasized the fact
- 1 that this action was taken only one
a day alter scnooi reconvened alter
the Thanksgiving Recess, thus
showing that the action had been
formulated over the previous
a 1 weekend.
Lawler said that the first word
Lawler strongly recommended
that student government immcdi-
them to rescind their action; (2)
clarify with the administration the
nature of student responsibility
and student jurisdiction in con
duct and morals and (3) clarify
with the IFC its responsibility in
the area of conduct involving fra
ternity houses or individual mem
bers of Greek Letter organizations
and a like clarification with the
responsibilities and jurisdiction.
Must Take Initiative
Lawler continued saying that
student government must face re
sponsibility and take the initiative
and must not remain on the de
fensive "as it has been in the past
five years." This particular case
should offer a "new concept" as
to the status of student government
here and should end the string of
bad precedents against SG, set
within recent years.
Representative Roy Kirk (UP)
spoke against the resolution and
said that SL shouldn't slap the ad
ministration cn the wrist now."
He added that the administration
had informed him that if the Pi
Kappa Alpha fraternity's resolu
tion had been submitted earlier,
they would not have released their
plans to the papers on Monday.
Kirk, a Pika member, reported
that he felt that this year's "Beat
Dook" parade was not as bad as
the ones before it and that "it had
received nothing but bad publicity
from the DTH, because of its yel
low journalism." Kirk concluded
by saying that two committees will
exist to supervise these affairs
until the student committee can
prove itself worthy of responsibil
ity. Lawler concluded his presenta
tion by reiterating his belief that
the administration was not justi
fied to act, and had acted in bad
faith, and that responsible student
action must be taken immediately
to alleviate this problem.
Dave Williams (SP) and Ford
Rowan SP also spoke in favor
of the bill.- Williams stressed that
it is the responsibility in a com
pact body, in student govern
ment's relations with the Board
of Trustees and Administration, for
one party to announce its plans to
the others before action is taken.
Rowan emphasized the importance
of student autonomy.
Codification Bill
Earlier in the meeting SL pass
ed one bill and overrode a veto
cn another. SL overrode Student
Body President Inman Allen's veto
of a bill to aprcpriate $210 from
